[00:50:36] oi, sounds hasslesome =P [00:51:37] It is, which is why traditionally people take backups, never check them, and then find when their site is wiped out that those backups they'd been diligently taking actually never ran for the past 18 months. [00:52:52] ouch. [00:56:54] This is true for all backups. :) [00:57:17] Competent shops have a policy of periodically checking backup integrity in some reliable fashion.

[02:07:30] [080305 17:22:17] hi. is there a postgresql major version which is particularly recommended or some that should be avoided among the supported ones? [02:07:30] [080305 18:07:10] chealer: 8.3 if you can, the builtin tsearch will make things a little easier to setup. [02:07:35] There's your answer. [02:09:07] cool [02:09:15] i have never used a wiki before [02:20:07] Java question: [02:20:09] private static final byte[] signature = { 0x4f, 0x67, 0x67, 0x53 }; [02:20:24] is that the best way to make an ASCII string in Java? [02:20:33] or is there some more readable way? [02:21:04] Why do you need one? [02:21:52] because I don't know the ASCII table in hexadecimal off by heart, so it's not obvious that that is the same as OggS [02:22:31] I mean, why does the string need to be an array of ASCII characters, and not just a Java string object? [02:23:19] well, the input is a byte[], it is used like this: [02:23:20] if (MemUtils.startsWith (data, offset, length, signature)) [02:23:56] for good reason of course, you don't really want to be interpreting an Ogg bitstream as UTF-8 or something [02:24:59] Does "OggS".getBytes( "ASCII" ) work? [02:25:08] *Simetrical just Googled string methods, has never written Java before in his life [02:28:15] Hi there ! Trying to to something a bit silly, and looking for help =P. I am trying to install mediawiki as a part of my site on the school network (GNU/linux). I cannot use root for this. I dled mediawiki, but now it is asking for a mysql server. Can I run one in user-space, or bypass it and use another database ? [02:29:31] Simetrical: I think determining the answer to that question would be more trouble than it's worth [02:29:33] 03(mod) Create MediaWiki:robots.txt - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13249 +comment (10wiki.bugzilla) [02:30:36] josinalvo, I imagine it's theoretically possible to run MySQL in a custom install, since you should be able to bind to port 3306, but I'm not totally sure. If you don't have a webserver and PHP installed by root, though, you're screwed. [02:30:45] Er, s/custom install/non-root install/. [02:34:30] Simetrical: CSV is not an option ? (yes, the server has PHP and Apache, but I cannot run processes, like MySQL, there) [02:37:44] josinalvo, no. [02:37:54] There are some lightweight wikis that run on flat files. [02:37:58] I think DokuWiki is one. [02:38:21] It might be runnable for you.

[02:42:43] Simetrical: k. Thanks. Will look into it [02:43:43] I created a backup of my other wiki and I want to test it on this test wiki I just created. How do I do this? [02:43:56] Import the dump. [02:43:58] However you dumped it. [02:44:06] If it's an SQL dump, pipe it to mysql. [02:44:39] Pipe? [02:44:42] If it's an XML export, it's not a very good backup to begin with, since it loses tons of critical info. XML exports are meant for sharing data, mainly. [02:44:51] mysql < mydump.sql [02:44:54] it's an sql file [02:44:55] On the command line. [02:44:57] Okay, good. [02:45:03] If you have command-line access, do that. [02:45:16] If you have phpMyAdmin, it has some mechanism for importing an SQL file, I don't remember it offhand. [02:45:22] ok [02:45:50] 03laner * r31607 10/trunk/extensions/SmoothGallery/SmoothGallery.php: Upping the version to 1.1c, and changing it from alpha to beta [02:48:27] I have phpMyAdmin, and I tried this import thing I have, but there's no change to the test wiki [02:51:12] OggDemux.java:32: unreported exception java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException; must be caught or declared to be thrown [02:51:12] private static final byte[] signature = "OggS".getBytes("US-ASCII"); [02:51:48] I am having issues with using Short URLs, is anyone available for help? [02:52:22] !ask | Zaerath [02:52:22] --mwbot-- Zaerath: Don't say "I have a question", or ask "Is anyone around?" or "Can anyone help?". Just ask the question, and someone will help you if they can. Also, please read < http://workaround.org/moin/GettingHelpOnIrc > for a good explanation of getting help on IRC. [02:52:43] Thanks, but it's really different per channel. [02:53:21] Okay, the problem I am having is... I am using the Mediawiki tutorial for the recommended shorturl configuration, and everything works.... But when you go to login, it tries to access index.php?title etc etc etc. [02:53:47] And, it's already aliased /wiki to use /wiki/index.php, so that's trying to access /wiki/index.php/index.php, and it's erroring. [02:54:11] which method are you using? [02:54:21] this one? http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Short_URL#Recommended_configuration_.28Used_on_Wikipedia.29 [02:54:33] Yes. [02:55:36] I can link you to the wiki if my explanation isn't precise enough, I'm bad at explaining things. [02:55:51] ah, its public. yeah. please do [02:56:21] and you can't cast one array of primitives to an array of different primitives [02:56:42] so byte[] sig = { 'O','g','g','S'} wouldn't work [02:56:59] Zaerath: the directory on your filesystem is w right? not wiki? [02:57:18] I'm trying to use phpMyAdmin to test an SQL backup on a test wiki and it doesn't seem to be changing anything. Is there a guide for this? [02:57:34] The directory on my filesystem is /var/lib/mediawiki1.7 and the file is aliasing /wiki to go to it. [02:57:42] ok. cool [02:58:15] Do I have a do a Rewrite? [02:58:37] you have root? if so, no [02:58:47] I do have root. [02:59:01] no need for rewrite then [02:59:05] Alright. [02:59:59] Can you post the link to your site [03:00:01] ? [03:00:04] Whoa. [03:00:09] It broke the wiki big time now. [03:00:09] http://denizensden.com/wiki/Main_Page [03:02:41] ok, back to the original signature then [03:03:10] Was that at me, Tim? [03:03:26] no [03:03:30] Alrighty. [03:03:30] Zaerath: brb [03:03:36] Ryan_Lane: Kk. [03:04:52] I put it back to long URLs for now. [03:09:06] Zaerath: your wiki articles are working right, but your non-wiki articles are also using /wiki (which is wrong) [03:09:27] What should they be using, and how can I fix it? [03:09:37] Now they're working right, because I changed it back to long URLs for a minute. [03:09:46] Zaerath: right [03:09:55] Let me change it back really quickly. [03:11:00] Changed. [03:11:01] http://denizensden.com/wiki/Main_Page [03:11:13] Yeah it broke the articles again, not really sure why. [03:11:37] Zaerath: notice the instruction, the directory name is "/w" [03:11:50] Under $wgScriptPath ? [03:11:54] Hi everyone, Do you know how to let mediawiki not encode Chinese characters in URL? e.g: the URL of main page index.php?title=首页 is encoded to index.php?title=%E9%A6%96%E9%A1%B5 which is hard to read [03:12:29] Zaerath: yours is not... you can either rename your directory to "/w" or change the $wgScriptPath to the name of your directory [03:12:51] My directory is not named, it's just an Alias in httpd.conf [03:13:04] Zaerath: which is "/mediawiki1.7" [03:13:19] /var/lib/mediawiki1.7 is aliased to /wiki [03:13:22] Zaerath: the name of the physical directory... [03:13:26] Change it? [03:13:42] Yes, to 'w'. [03:13:56] Changed, and then change it in scriptpath... [03:14:03] Zaerath: either: mv /var/lib/mediawiki1.7 /var/lib/w [03:14:13] The virtual directory name cannot match the actual directory name. [03:14:17] Yes, I did so, now changing it in ScriptPath. [03:14:24] Oh, well it didn't. [03:14:27] Zaerath: or change: $wgScriptPath = "/mediawiki1.7" [03:14:31] It was /wiki virtual /mediawii1.7 before. [03:14:38] Okay. [03:15:31] Still showing me broken pages. [03:15:35] http://denizensden.com/wiki/Main_Page [03:15:48] Zaerath: what is the directory on your filesystem? [03:15:52] For a breakdown: [03:15:52] Directory name is /var/lib/mediawiki1.7, [03:16:00] WgScriptPath is set to /mediawiki1.7 [03:16:11] Alias is: Alias /wiki /var/lib/mediawiki1.7/index.php [03:16:30] Zaerath: what is your DocumentRoot in apache? [03:16:39] /var/www/ [03:16:54] (I host a webserver there as well) [03:17:00] Zaerath: thats the problem. make this alias: Alias /w /var/lib/mediawiki1.7 [03:17:13] Zaerath: and change your $wgScriptPath back to "/w" [03:17:38] If I change the alias to a directory again rather than the php file, it'll nullify the short URLs, won't it? [03:17:40] Zaerath: you are going to need both aliases, because mediawiki isn't in your document root [03:18:02] So, you are going to have: [03:18:14] Alias /wiki /var/lib/mediawiki1.7/index.php [03:18:16] and [03:18:24] Alias /w /var/lib/mediawiki1.7 [03:18:27] Alrighty, have that. [03:18:30] And wgScriptPath is /w [03:18:54] Seems to be working on the mage page. [03:18:56] there you go [03:18:58] Alright, all works. Thanks a ton guys. [03:19:02] no problem [03:19:08] http://denizensden.com/w/index.php?title=Special:Userlogin&returnto=Main_Page [03:19:13] I guess I get how that works now, kinda confusing. [03:19:40] yeah. your install directory not being in the document root was the problem [03:19:47] ScriptPath is for the actual scripts, whereas article path is where articles go, which uses wgScript. [03:19:49] Ahhhh. [03:19:54] that is kind of common though [03:19:59] Yeah it said leave it out for security, and it was the default installation location, so ah. [03:20:46] Thanks again. [03:20:48] well. enjoy [03:20:50] no probl [03:20:57] problem too [03:21:09] Thanks. Having index.php/article was ugly and kinda hard to navigate if you wanted to go straight to something. [03:23:05] I'll see if I can stay and help others, when I can. [03:23:15] I've had a lot of issues with MediaWiki myself, so maybe I can help some people.

[04:11:18] MZMcBride: thanks [04:11:44] how do extensions and templates differ? i was looking at the "to-do list" that wikipedia uses on discussion pages but someone said it's a template, not an extension :/ [04:12:15] Thank ye all. [04:12:19] Extensions are listed at [[Special:Version]] and provide functionality that applies sitewide; they can do various things. [04:12:31] Extensions require access to LocalSettings.php to be installed. [04:12:44] Templates are on-wiki, and can be changed and modified by any user. [04:12:53] Templates are for content. [04:13:00] ahh [04:13:18] For example, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Todo [04:13:38] Or, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Poem [04:14:21] aren't extensions for content too though? [04:14:40] They can be. [04:14:48] ahh not necessarily though [04:14:51] Perhaps the bot can help... [04:14:54] !templates | Wind0pain [04:14:54] --mwbot-- Wind0pain: For more information about templates, see .

I've tried digging through the source of pages and editing the skin CSS files. The tabs across the top seem to have the same div class as the sidebar along the side. I've changed the background color for this CSS entry but instead of both the tabs and the sidebar changing, only the sidebar changed. What part of the CSS file do I need to edit to edit the background color of the tabs across the top? [04:26:18] id="ca-nstab-user", id="ca-talk", id="ca-history", etc. [04:26:47] i'm installing the SyntaxHighligh_GeSHi extension- do I need the "Localisation updates for extension messages from Betawiki" ? I don't think I'm using a beta anything... [04:27:20] Ok. So I'm looking at the wrong thing then. (Total CSS newbie. I'll get it though.) [04:29:29] ca-nstab-user isn't even in the CSS file. And changing ca-talk doesn't change anything on the page. :| [04:30:01] And aren't those ids? I changed the class for changing everything else... [04:30:42] CSS class's use .ca-talk; id's use #ca-talk. [04:31:11] So, you would need { #ca-talk background-color:red; } or some such. [04:31:29] .ca-talk is not in the CSS file. Changing #ca-talk's background-color does not change the background color of the tab. [04:31:55] *MZMcBride wrote broken CSS. >_> [04:32:39] I wouldn't recognize broken from working. Last time I worked with web development, it was in HTML. [04:33:37] I know it's possible to edit the background color of these tabs. I know it is, I've seen it done before. [04:38:36] Hmmm....

[04:56:28] no idea [04:56:43] where is your mediawiki hosted? [04:58:11] hostgator [04:58:29] do you have ftp access to your mediawiki files? [05:02:49] jlerner: yes [05:03:18] ok well just ftp'ing the files up to the correct directories is probably your best bet [05:04:09] it looks like hostgator has ssh access as well [05:04:16] 03(mod) Allow import to different page name - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6808 +comment (10rene.kijewski) [05:04:24] ssh in and type svn to see if subversion is installed [05:04:33] but probably more involved than it's worth [05:04:43] just copy the files in however you feel most comfortable [05:06:52] any idea what is going wrong here: http://armchairinventors.com/mediawiki/index.php5 [05:08:11] 03(NEW) API error with MW 1.11.1 - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13263 major; normal; MediaWiki: API; (professorminh) [05:17:10] 03(ASSIGNED) New Talk Page Option - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13262 +comment (10soxred93) [05:18:01] SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi.php seems to send all of that the screen when i add the require_once("extensions/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi.php"); [05:18:41] 03(NEW) Create the Hungarian Wikinews, Erzya & Extremaduran & Gan Wikipedia, and Japanese Wikiversity - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13264 normal; normal; Wikimedia: Site requests; (chanel5) [05:18:49] :D [05:19:23] 14(DUP) Create Hungarian Wikinews - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12865 +comment (10chanel5) [05:19:26] 03(mod) Create the Hungarian Wikinews, Erzya & Extremaduran & Gan Wikipedia, and Japanese Wikiversity - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13264 +comment (10chanel5) [05:19:54] Combining bug reports isn't ...

[05:21:23] Yeah, but if one of them isn't ready, the person creating usually avoids the bug entirely. [05:21:56] MZMcBride: They're all ready. [05:22:06] Just sayin'. :p [05:22:09] MZMcBride: We don't file bug requests unless they are. [05:22:11] :P [05:22:26] Pathoschild says "Hmph!"

[05:33:08] Hey, I would like some help submitting a patch [05:33:42] Soxred93: Go to Bugzilla and click the attachment link. [05:33:47] I think that's all there is to it. [05:33:49] Done [05:34:00] Oh, so I don't need to provide a diff or something? [05:34:48] Dunno. [05:36:25] Ok [05:36:29] Now to wait [05:36:45] Soxred93: is it 13262 New Talk Page Option ? [05:36:49] Yes [05:37:32] Soxred93: i unified diff would make it a lot easier to review your patch. [05:37:52] So does that mean I upload the original? [05:38:35] Raymond__? [05:38:55] Soxred93: what do you mean with "original"? now you have uploaded the complete file [05:39:18] Yes, do I upload the unchanged version too, so a diff can be provided? [05:40:32] Soxred93: no, you have to create the diff. but wait a moment, I will try something [05:41:00] How does the diff get created? [05:43:48] Raymond__? [05:44:02] Soxred93: be patient pls... [05:44:14] Ok, sorry [05:52:00] 03dale * r31610 10/trunk/extensions/MetavidWiki/maintenance/ (4 files): maintenance updates [05:55:39] back in a few minutes with a patch for Soxred93 but I have to restart my pc [05:56:38] i can't believe there aren't more wikis out there [05:57:40] Could someone tell Raymond that I'm going to have to leave, and send it to my email if it is necessary? (my email is enabled at en-wiki) [06:08:48] where is soxred now? [06:08:48] Could someone tell Raymond that I'm going to have to leave, and send it to my email if it is necessary?

[06:36:38] Without including the host domain. [06:36:38] You can't. [06:37:20] Can I write a macro or something? [06:38:26] The Apache2 web server has knowledge of the local domain used by the user. Can this be used somehow? [06:40:26] well... [06:41:06] you can use {{server}} [06:41:23] [{{server}}/robots.txt local robots.txt] [06:41:45] Thanks, I'll give it a try. [06:42:06] that works then for a moved domain or non-static mirror [06:42:07] Splarka: You heared of the idea for the title rewrite? [06:42:53] d7m: but doesn't work for static mirrors, as the domain is included in the href [06:42:54] I imported a backup sql into my test wiki, and there's no change. Any ideas why? [06:42:57] dan: elaborsplain? [06:43:49] Basically it means pairing the current title in the database which is actually a title key, with a real title field. [06:43:52] The idea is: [06:44:08] While [[Main Page]] and [[_main_Page]] will still be the same page [06:44:29] MediaWiki will actually be able to identify that a page is supposed to be named [[_main_Page]] [06:44:46] bah! what fun is that? [06:44:48] ^_^ So no need to use {{DISPLAYTITLE:iPod}} [06:45:02] You can actually move [[IPod]] to [[iPod]] [06:45:09] seems a lot of work for a minor inconvenience [06:45:24] Not really, DISPLAYTITLE is a complete hack [06:45:33] And that's only the main thing [06:45:52] Theres a little more backend stuff that'll clean up some bad code and allow for more extensibility [06:46:15] Well, personally, I'd talk to one of the big devs before doing any major work on it. [06:46:17] not really a lot of work? [06:46:22] or not really a minor inconvenience? [06:46:27] Medium scale [06:46:51] Part of the plan is a extensible normalization function [06:46:56] From what I've seen in the past, people have been pretty hesitant to mess with capitalization as it can seriously screw up linking. [06:47:07] indeed [06:47:31] It's not only capitalization [06:48:26] d7m: I have wished that the external link syntax, eg [], would take absolute, but not full, URLs as well, for example [/wiki/Foo foo] or [/robots.txt robots] or [{{localurl:whatever}} whatever] [06:48:29] Having a page that starts with an underscore scares the hell out of most people. [06:48:44] heh [06:48:47] there are other fun hacks [06:48:56] start a page with an invisible unicode, like zero width joiner ^_^ [06:48:58] _Summer [06:49:44] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E2%80%8BiPod [06:50:04]
