[00:10:20] broken for 8 months [00:10:29] so prolly [00:13:33] heh [00:13:36] what revision is the fix? [00:14:04] 32817 [00:14:36] single rev? nothing aside?

[01:14:43] is there any straightforward way to invalidate the cache for a given page - but not more than once per hour? [01:19:18] AaronSchulz: so non-exitent pages match as long as they have rc entries? sure, as long as it works :) [01:20:17] 03aaron * r33002 10/trunk/phase3/includes/SpecialWatchlist.php: LEFT JOIN on page, this picks up deletion log and salting stuff [01:20:26] ok, still can't figure out the populateParentId bug [01:20:38] man, I spend 2 hours staring at that probably [01:22:37] 03brion * r33003 10/trunk/extensions/Cite/ (Cite.i18n.php Cite.php): [01:22:37] Revert part of r32492 -- don't spew errors for when no s are defined for that group.

[03:17:33] 03aaron * r33007 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/MessagesEn.php: gr [03:19:46] anyone have any idea what could cause php's internal mail() function to bomb before anything even hits the mail logs? [03:20:09] i get intermittent errors in mediawiki, when using php's internal mail() to send meail... [03:20:39] nothing in the logs, which is bizarre [03:20:44] then the problem just goes away... [03:25:03] Is there a parser function that counts the number of times a substring appears in a string, like PHP's substr_count()? [03:25:04] I need to count ", " in a string so that when my template is passed "New York, London, Paris, Munich" it displays 3 (or better yet, 4). [03:31:57] If I could replace all text that's not ", " with nothing, then I could ask for #len(reduced_string), but I don't see a parser function for that sort of replacement. [03:33:15] Try StringFunctions? [03:38:01] MZMcBride, I don't see it this in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:StringFunctions. [03:38:26] See what? [03:40:44] MZMcBride: I don't see any kind of counted match or replace exposed by Extension:StringFunctions. [03:40:46] Maybe I could use StringFunctions' #explode in an Extension:LoopFunctions for loop, asking for piece $n$ until nothing is returned. Ugly [03:41:10] Can't the #replace function replace things? [03:43:51] how does one register with nickserv? [03:44:51] is anyone here? [03:52:55] sneakyimp: /join #freenode [03:53:57] MZMcBride, #replace doesn't count the number of replacements it performs and it doesn't appear to do regegxp replacements. [04:05:16] gah [04:45:34] Is there a recommended howto page for mwdumper? [04:52:04] Okay, how about a different question. Are the Mwdumper pages/revisions immediately visible in the database via, for example, phpMyAdmin? [04:58:20] how to I expand the list of booksources ? where is that defined ? [05:00:29] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:ISBN [05:02:42] I dont understand the manual :-) [05:02:54] just a moment. [05:03:30] it talks about a list on meta: . I want to update the list on en.wikisource, but I cant see where it is. [05:06:07] Look at your website's page Mediawiki:Book sources, or it can be configured to use the page in any name space. [05:06:55] If it isn't there, it will use the default list in languageXXX.php file. [05:08:54] ive found it on en.Wikipedia at [[Wikipedia:Book sources]]. still looking for it on wikisource. [05:11:19] It could be at Wikisource:Book sources, Mediawiki:Book sources, or it may rely on the languageXXX.php description. [05:13:25] ah, it was relying on the php default, which is why I couldnt find the existing page. ive created the page where I expected it to be, and it is now working [05:13:29] thank you [05:13:57] np [05:14:22] [05:21:14] 03aaron * r33008 10/trunk/phase3/includes/ (8 files in 2 dirs): ...really get rid of link color query spam [05:30:26] I'm following a bunch of different instructions on mediawiki.org but I can't get the damn /index.php/ out of my URLs! [05:30:44] I'm trying the .htaccess file rewrite rules and modifying LocalSettings.php [05:31:25] The rewrites in Apache work because when I try to go to the Main_Page for example the URL is in fact changed to get rid of the index.php/ but it just can't FIND the damn page then [05:32:53] What have you added to .htaccess? [05:35:08] 03aaron * r33009 10/trunk/phase3/includes/LinkBatch.php: Tweak comment [05:37:07] Amgine: http://pastebin.ca/977948 [05:37:19] I've tried multiple different things,but that is what it is at currently. [05:37:44] [05:39:00] The requested URL /Main_Page was not found on this server. [05:39:34] Is mw installed in w/ of your site? [05:39:40] 03dale * r33010 10/trunk/extensions/MetavidWiki/skins/mv_embed/mv_embed.js: [05:39:40] * fixed download link issue [05:39:40] * stubs for display of inline CMML [05:40:53] Amgine: it's installed where the Debian package instlled it to /usr/share/mediawiki/ which is my Apache site's documentroot [05:41:08] URLs which currently work are http://wikisite.org/index.php/Main_Page [05:41:14] I'm trying to get rid of the index.php/ [05:41:33] I understand that. So you do have root access then? [05:44:20] I apologize for popping in and out, my network is giving me fits. [05:44:56] lymeca: do you have access to httpd.conf? that is, can you edit it? [05:45:13] Amgine_: yes. [05:46:54] Okay, my first suggestion is to move all the files to w/ under your httpd root. Sounds like this would be mkdir w/, mv * w/* [05:47:30] Don't you mean wiki/ / [05:47:31] ? [05:47:35] After that, try to follow http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/wiki/Page_title [05:47:37] not w/ [05:47:45] No, I mean w/ [05:47:54] well I want URLs such as wikisite.org/Main_Page to work [05:47:55] The wiki/ is actually aliased. [05:48:49] You do realize this means your domain would only be able to have the wiki software. It would be very difficult to also host other related content? [05:50:35] Don't care [05:50:39] THis is just a wiki [05:51:03] Amgine_: Is there a way to have all my pages in a wiki/ subdirectory but have wikisite.org/Main_Page work? [05:51:11] If not I'd like to just keep it in documentroot [05:51:15] Okay, modifying the howto should be fairly strait forward then. [05:51:33] yes, you can modify the aliases to manage that. [05:52:12] Amgine_: So what should I do? Should I move it into a wiki/ subdir, fix rewrite rules to get rid of index.php,then modify aliases to enable URLs without /wiki/ ? [05:53:59] $wgArticlePath = "/$1" if you do not want to have them in a subdir [05:54:28] $wgScriptPath = "/" [05:54:47] no, sorry, $wgScriptPath = "" [05:55:21] Then do your Aliases in httpd.conf [05:55:57] I'm not sure you'll need the first of those, but it can't hurt either. [05:57:33] Amgine_: What sort of aliases do you speak of? [05:57:47] I have that stuff in a file called .htaccess in documentroot [05:57:55] The stuff at the pastebin here: http://pastebin.ca/977948 [05:57:56] step 3 in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/wiki/Page_title [05:58:28] Yes, I understand that, but using aliases in httpd.conf is generally a better solution. [05:59:44] Amgine_: Alias /index.php /usr/share/mediawiki/index.php [06:00:02] [06:00:27] That looks like all I need? I can put this anywhere in my apache conf? [06:01:04] yes. It can also be put inside a vhost block. [06:01:46] Once done, you'll need to restart apache, for example sudo apachectl graceful [06:01:46] Amgine_: It still fails with [06:01:47] The requested URL /Main_Page was not found on this server. [06:02:03] 404 Apache error [06:02:10] Did you restart apache? [06:02:59] Amgine_: just did, still 404 [06:03:05] [06:03:18] Is the Alias mod turned on in apache? [06:04:00] How can I tell? [06:04:35] There should be a section where there's a lot of lines such as "#mod_something" [06:05:00] Find the line which has mod_alias, and insure it is uncommented. [06:05:10] Unless you are using apache2. [06:05:14] Yeah it's loaded. [06:05:29] I'm using Apache2 but it's in the mods-enabled/ dir [06:05:39] okay, here's a better explanation of what we're doing: [06:05:40] alias.load and alias.conf [06:05:48] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/Page_title_--_Aliasing_method--Root_access [06:06:12] [06:06:19] Both the Alias rule and the .htaccess file cause Apache to rewrite the URLs (or maybe that's the LocalSettings.php modification?) but Apache cannot find the correct article and returns a 404. [06:06:25] Same behavior. [06:06:38] Check your local settings.php [06:06:53] $wgScriptPath = ""; [06:06:53] $wgScript = ""; [06:06:53] $wgArticlePath = "/$1"; [06:07:45] Got those in there? [06:08:06] yup [06:08:15] that's when the 404 errors start coming [06:08:24] When I edit LocalSettings.php to uncomment those lines [06:08:34] I comment them back up and the /index.php/ it back in the URLs but the pages work [06:09:04] Okay, open up httpd.conf again, and erase the aliases you put in there. [06:09:09] Replace with: [06:09:17] IfModule mod_alias.c> [06:09:17] Alias /skins /var/lib/mediawiki1.8/skins [06:09:18] Alias /index.php /var/lib/mediawiki1.8/index.php [06:09:18] Alias / /var/lib/mediawiki1.8/index.php [06:09:18] [06:09:18] Options -Indexes [06:09:20] [06:09:22] [06:09:38] That should start [06:09:41] right [06:10:09] Make sure you replace /var/lib/mediawiki1.8/ with your path. [06:11:04] Got that step? [06:11:11] Amgine_: Got it [06:11:15] but it still doesn't work [06:11:30] now mv .htaccess old.htaccess [06:11:45] did that already too [06:12:03] I restarted Apache as well [06:12:07] still 404 [06:12:14] okay, try adding a trailing slash after each of the alias paths. [06:12:56] so, Alias /index.php /usr/share/mediawiki/index.php/ - only using your path. [06:13:57] 404 [06:16:07] Amgine: It works! [06:16:10] but images are broken! [06:16:22] Do I need to alias that as well? [06:16:25] Add an alias. [06:17:09] Alias /images /path/images/ [06:17:37] And congratulations! [06:18:08] Amgine: That didn't work... I tried Alias /images /usr/share/mediawiki/images/ and restartying Apache [06:18:13] But no images still [06:18:41] do you have images installed? [06:18:59] I have a lot of images [06:19:17] Yes, but have they been uploaded into the database? [06:19:49] Ah some of them work! [06:20:54] Okay cleaned out cache and they all work =] [06:21:19] Amgine: Thank you so much!! This is such a huge upgrade for my wiki! [06:21:55] Congratulations again. [06:22:59] Amgine: Is there a way to also add an alias so that if the URL wikisite.org/wiki/Main_Page is accessed it will work? [06:24:41] Yes, I think it's Alias /wiki /path/to/your/MediaWiki/installation/index.php [06:31:14] Amgine: That didn't work [06:31:44] It just says there is no content on the page Wiki/Main_Page [06:32:17] Wiki/Main Page [06:32:17] There is currently no text in this page, you can search for this page title in other pages or edit this page. [06:32:35] Is there an entry in the database? (I assume yes?) [06:34:21] For what? [06:34:32] For Main_Page [06:34:37] Amgine: dun duhhhh [06:34:38] oh yes. [06:35:02] Amgine: Do the order I define the Aliases in the conf matter? [06:35:02] lymeca: your mediawiki installation is misinterpreting your request as a request for Wiki/Main_Page, rather than a request for Main Page [06:35:10] check that your $wgArticlePath is correctly set. [06:35:34] Yes, the order does matter. [06:35:41] Images should be last, iirc. [06:35:58] Werdna: I think it is. I tried adding a second Apache Alias to alias any URLs with /wiki/Main_Page would be turned into just /Main_Page (the latter is where the pages are) [06:36:14] doesn't matter. [06:36:22] PHP sees the request as /wiki/Main_Page [06:36:27] well, MediaWiki does [06:36:45] list to Werdna; much more knowledgeable than I.

[06:40:42] Everything works except for URLs like wikisite.org/wiki/Main_Page which I would love to redirect to wikisite.org/Main_Page [06:41:04] lymeca: can't be done with current MediaWiki codebase [06:41:05] UNLESS [06:41:22] you write a PHP script of your own to sit in the directory which 301s users to the correct page. [06:41:37] Werdna: So it can't be done with Apacge aliases? [06:41:50] i'm using this code (http://pastebin.com/d7a34fb2) to have the wiki login/add users from an existing account system. i'm taking the user data from a session. how do i add admins to the sysop group? how do i prevent any login/logout from the wiki page? how do i log a user out programmatically? [06:41:51] Should I remove the alias line: Alias /wiki /usr/share/mediawiki/index.php/ [06:41:52] no. Just write a 3-line PHP script to do the redirecting. [06:42:01] Werdna: I don't know PHP [06:44:14] Amgine: Oh here's an issue!! My index.html doesn't work anymore. Before I had people come to wikisite.org be greeted by a splash page called index.html which had links to wikisite.org/Main_Page [06:44:14] into wiki_redirect.php [06:44:51] Amgine, Werdna: After the ALiases requests for wikisite.org automatically are aliased to wikisite.org/Main_Page [06:44:54] ?> at the end of that. [06:44:55] rewrite rulle Alias /wiki /usr/share/mediawiki/wiki_redirect.php/ [06:45:00] Amgine: no need for a ?> [06:45:10] oh... you bad. [06:45:18] lymeca: well yes, that's kinda what an alias does. [06:45:19] [06:45:27] Is there a way to keep the aliasing but have my index.html work still? [06:45:37] that's why we recommend you don't have your articlepath as /$article [06:45:56] my recommendation is to set it as a 404 handler, rather than as an alias [06:46:03] It's actually $wgArticlePath = "/$1"; [06:46:10] whatever. [06:46:38] Werdna: Set what as a 404 handler? [06:46:46] lymeca: index.php [06:48:07] Hmm,well I'm happy with the alias rules I have (which you can see in pastebin) inasmuch as they get rid of those ugly long URLs...I just want to maybe remove the one which causes my index.html to be ignored. I think it might be the "Alias / /usr/share/mediawiki/index.php/" one? [06:48:34] yes, likely. [06:48:38] I'm also quite ignorant as to how I would go about setting index.php as a 404 handler or what the even means. [06:50:41] Well the URLs such as wikisite.org/wiki/Main_Page are less important to get working (although I would really like to have them) [06:50:51] But I would like to have my index.html pages back. [06:52:37] ErrorHandler 404 /usr/share/mediawiki/index.php [06:53:07] oops, should be ErrorDocument [06:54:20] ErrorDocument 404 /usr/share/mediawiki/index.php in my apache2 conf file? [06:54:38] uhuh [06:54:51] Werdna: Should that be inside my section? [06:55:02] no [06:55:12] Werdna: And this will make my index.html work again without messing up the short URLs created by my aliases? [06:55:41] yes. You;ll need to remove the Alias / first though [06:57:29] Werdna: That just broke my wiki [06:57:39] what's wrong? [06:57:41] The requested URL /Main_Page was not found on this server. [06:57:44] Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. [06:58:10] Yah, the final / is the fall-through alias; it will probably be required. [06:58:22] no [06:58:30] that's what the bloody errordocument is for. [06:58:41] oh, I see what you mean to do. [06:58:49] well, that url /usr/share/mediawiki/... is supposed to be the path to your index.php file [06:58:52] [06:58:52] is it correct? [07:00:34] yes [07:00:51] The asbolute pathname of my index.php is /usr/share/mediawiki/index.php [07:01:08] I fixed my wiki by returning the Alias / /usr/share/mediaiki/index.php/ [07:01:23] The index.html still doesn't work though. [07:01:39] I am having trouble getting mimetypes working properly [07:02:04] well I don't know how it's getting a 404 trying to find that file. [07:03:30] the server has Mimemagick installled. It lets me upload svg files but not some of the others that I have set for mediawiki to alllow yet if I use the ecomended external command on your help it lets me upload other immages but not svg's [07:03:52] Werdna: Did you mean ErrorDocument 404 /usr/share/mediawiki/index.html ? [07:03:59] $wgMimeDetectorCommand = "file -bi"; is the detector command I hve set [07:05:18] no. [07:05:56] it should not be getting a 404 when trying to retrieve that file, unless that file does not exist. [07:06:54] what should I use as an auth token for centralauth? [07:07:15] Time for sleep. Good timezone all... [07:07:31] nn [07:07:38] I can not get Mime type dettection to work properly [07:08:11] we know [07:08:21] if I use $wgMimeDetectorCommand = "file -bi"; I can upload .svg files but not the other immge file types [07:09:29] so what can I do?

[08:08:55] trying to figure out how this template works: http://www.archiplanet.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Architecture_Firm_Info&action=edit [08:09:13] <_wooz> lo [08:09:17] line 4 contains [[Architecture firm name:={{{firm}}}]] [08:09:27] but on http://www.archiplanet.org/wiki/N._B._Purvis_and_Associates%2C_Bowling_Green%2C_Kentucky%2C_USA [08:09:39] the link doesn't look anything like that [08:12:18] Hello everybody :) [08:13:20] I have a problem with an extension, could everybody give me a hand? It should be easy but quite tricky for me :-( [08:15:54] in wikipedia on mediawiki article page it says on 1.12 [08:15:57] "Special:Version is localizable" [08:16:35] how to do that? not showing up on the system messages [09:03:37] yay! http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PHPBB/Users_Integration rocks [09:04:42] 03siebrand * r33012 10/trunk/phase3/languages/ (47 files in 2 dirs): Localisation updates for core messages from Betawiki (2008-04-09 10:44 CEST) [09:13:46] Werdna: 3 more languages coming up for GlobalBlocking :) [09:14:01] Werdna: French, Hindi, Polish [09:15:07] yay :) [09:15:10] <3 siebrand [09:15:17] Serbian coming too :) [09:16:02] gotta tickle the Italian community. Venetian (minority language in Italy) now has a more complete localisation than Italian... [09:16:48] write on their VP [09:17:24] Sasa^Stefanovic: nah. I need localisation ambassadors for that... Too much to do, too little time. [09:19:01] "hey, get to it .it!" [09:21:07] 03ialex * r33013 10/trunk/phase3/includes/ChangesList.php: [09:21:07] Fix for ehanced recentchanges: when there are log items, show them groupped by [09:21:07] log (same as old behaviour) and not by page. See for example recent changes at [09:21:07] mediawiki.org, new user log items aren't anymore groupped and they take too much [09:21:07] place. [09:23:54] ialex, this was broken today right ? [09:24:05] i see it broken on sr: wiki with delete log [09:24:26] Sasa^Stefanovic: hey, that had a strange behaviour [09:24:29] s/hey/yes [09:24:46] 03siebrand * r33014 10/trunk/extensions/ (108 files in 105 dirs): Localisation updates for extension messages from Betawiki (2008-04-09 10:44 CEST) [09:25:24] Sasa^Stefanovic: and deferent log in the same page were groupped [09:25:45] ah, that is nice too [09:25:50] siebrand: I'll see if there are any italian stewards [09:26:23] excellent. [09:26:27] Sasa^Stefanovic: was, isn't anymore with my commit [09:27:04] hmm so, i will see two dropdowns for two kind of logs with more than one logs ? [09:27:05] .anaconda ? [09:27:45] at least 5 stewards with native or better .it [09:29:06] Sasa^Stefanovic: see http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges (if you have ehanced changes list) and search for User:Hfr, for me, these look like two edit but it a delete + protect [09:29:31] User:Hfr: the page, not the user [09:30:12] ah i see now, it's nice [09:30:33] but usercreation log still have one log for every creation [09:30:41] can this be on one dropdown too [09:31:31] Sasa^Stefanovic: now, user creation will be groupped, but that two action won't be anymore [09:32:55] 03siebrand * r33015 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/MessagesEn.php: Link to localisation project from [[Special:Allmessages]] [09:59:03] 03ialex * r33016 10/trunk/extensions/SkinPerNamespace/install.settings: Added install.settings file for SkinPerNamespace extension. [10:08:34] 03siebrand * r33017 10/trunk/phase3/RELEASE-NOTES: [10:08:34] Add a few localisations that were update in 1.13 [10:08:34] Should we keep maintaining this section, or just generate it just before releases? [10:10:01] Im having a hard time confirming if my LocalSettings is active or not. Know of any simple extension that can be added/tested for this? [10:10:26] siebrand, i think that you should remove all those updated languages from release-notes, and put only one-two sentance [10:10:41] like on WP:SIGNPOST at the end of technical report [10:11:07] "Internationalisation has been continuing as normal; help is always appreciated! See mw:Localisation statistics for how complete the translations of languages you know are, and post any updates to bugzilla or use Betawiki." [10:11:22] something like that [10:23:05] *Sasa^Stefanovic pokes TimStarling [10:24:19] yeah [10:24:30] what you said [10:24:58] how to run mw irc RC bot [10:31:24] https://wikitech.leuksman.com/view/IRCD [10:32:25] tnx [10:35:03] TimStarling: if I use the AutoAuthenticate hook to auth users by the centralauth tokens, should I rely on the centralauth token alone, or should I set local login cookies? [10:35:28] also, should I periodically reset the token? (say, one in every 500-1000 logins, or when the password is reset?) [10:36:27] it feels icky to be giving away a key to a user's account in a cookie without changing it periodically (as users are SUPPOSED to do with passwords, and may do with passwords if they suspect a breach) [10:37:44] it should be reset when the password is reset, same as user_token in the core [10:38:40] setting local login cookies would mean that the user will stay logged in after a global password reset [10:38:51] which is probably bad [10:40:14] right, okay. [10:40:36] *Lady_Aleena is quasi-lurking and doesn't know why she feels compelled to tell people. [10:40:53] Also, do I need to set loggedOut cookies like we do in core, to stop cached pages from showing the user logged in? [10:41:20] titleblacklist will prevent matching image uploads, correct? [10:43:00] and will protecting a non-existent image page prevent upload of that image? [10:47:16] yes. [10:47:52] *Mike_lifeguard is gleeful [10:51:33] *Lady_Aleena comes out of the shadows just long enough to tickle random people. [10:51:34] the file extension is considered part of the name for titleblacklist, correct? [10:51:41] *Mike_lifeguard tickled?! [10:52:37] I got a nice little tool that I wanted and am happy about it. [10:54:53] hi [10:55:06] there is an alternative way to resize images in mediawiki? [10:55:16] i mean, avoiding using imagemagick [10:57:26] there are other thumbnail softwares [11:02:16] what other Werdna ? [11:03:17] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Image_thumbnailing [11:06:26] i cant find how to configure my mediawiki to use GD for resizng [11:06:41] GD? [11:07:57] Lady_Aleena, GD...PHP? [11:07:59] For titleblacklist if I specify , what can blah be? template? can I use $1 and $2? can I use html? text-only? [11:10:54] every body can see this bug : severity hard : https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13668 [11:15:58] Grondin: it's an extension [11:16:32] Image class is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore [11:17:29] Is it possible to access wgArticleId at runtime? [11:18:02] I want to edit a checkbox to the main preferences tab through an extension. Any pointers/examples? [11:19:02] Fatpaddle: What do you mean with: at runtime? what do you wanna do? [11:19:30] I want to use it in a condition, to render a block of html in a skin [11:20:01] Fatpaddle: it's taken from $wgTitle->getArticleId() [11:29:04] Righto, Forgot to declare wgTitle as a global. Is this a sensible way of going about what I'm attempting to do? [11:29:04] hello .... would somebody have an idea on this .. [11:29:50] I disabled edit tabs for section links on a page for all users ... except administrator and now I would like to get it back for all users? [11:36:43] ialex, CategoryTree ? [11:37:36] Grondin: maybe, but i can't reproduce it on my [11:37:39] wiki [11:37:53] ok [11:47:27] AaronSchulz, is this your fault? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#watchlist.3F [11:51:00] ialex, it's not an extension [11:55:36] Grondin: what then ? [11:56:43] The following extensions are updated and nothing : [11:58:46] http://fr.vikidia.org/index.php/Special:Version [11:59:48] do regexes in titleblacklist etc accept \s as whitespace? [12:00:53] Nikerabbit: where are you getting that? [12:03:35] ialex, the problem is about categories which have caterized images [12:03:44] oops categorized [12:04:42] Grondin: just found it :) [12:05:11] wouah ! [12:09:24] Grondin: done [12:09:56] 03ialex * r33018 10/trunk/phase3/includes/CategoryPage.php: Use wfLocalFile() instead of create an Image object, was throwing an E_USER_NOTICE. Thanks to Grondin for reporting it. [12:15:58] 03aaron * r33019 10/trunk/phase3/includes/ (4 files): Partial revert of r32982; old Title method is fine here [12:16:56] hi i want to authenticate new users [12:17:00] ialex: Nikerabbit had stdClass::$page_len error [12:17:02] do you get any? [12:17:15] how can i do so please? [12:18:07] AaronSchulz: where ? [12:18:16] he didn't say [12:18:23] Werdna? [12:18:34] I added an extension, edited LocalSettings pr instruction, reloaded the webserver, extension doesent work. Where do I start debugging this? The syntax I test with is valid, the files are in the right place.. [12:19:14] AaronSchulz: siebrand reported something like that last evening, but didn't you fixed that ? [12:19:30] AaronSchulz: wha? [12:19:34] I'm not getting it anywhere [12:19:43] Werdna: stdClass::$page_len ? [12:19:53] AaronSchulz: E_ALL [12:19:53] where are these errors? or are they gone? [12:20:04] I always have E_ALL on [12:20:15] I dunno, there's a big opened for them [12:20:18] check scrollback [12:21:01] nothing useful [12:23:29] thank's ialex : it runs [12:29:08] if i include a template which use class="backgroundcolor1 bordercolor1" where i have to define these two colors? [12:29:36] Mesophan: well, there is no general way. the best thing would be you describe your problem more in detail. Which extension, what did you change in LocalSettings.php. Reloading the webserver should normally not be important to get the extension running. [12:30:12] Mesophan: If you changed more then 2 Lines in the LocalSettings then please don't post it here, but use a pastebin. [12:31:38] I've added InputBox and only added the appropriate line as instructed in the InputBox.php -> require_once("path/to/inputbox.php"); [12:32:09] but in a test-page, I only get code as if it was wrapped in [12:33:03] But - here is the thing Im uncertain about: There was no LocalSettings.php so I had to create it. Now I wonder if its in the right place, is it enabled, is the syntax proper etc. [12:34:24] 03grondin * r33020 10/trunk/extensions/GlobalBlocking/GlobalBlocking.i18n.php: Localisation updates for extensions messages from Betawiki [12:34:48] Grondin: <3 [12:35:36] Mesophan: where did you look for the LocalSettings? [12:35:56] in the same folder as the index.php main page. [12:36:25] Mesophan: If there was no LocalSettings.php then your wiki won't normally not work. [12:36:32] AaronSchulz: did you identify the cause of those notices yet? [12:36:35] Mesophan: Which MW are you using? [12:36:50] Nikerabbit: not getting any, still looking though [12:36:50] 1.11.1 [12:36:56] might be on to something [12:37:12] 1.11.1? [12:37:43] oh [12:37:50] hmm Grondin [12:38:05] i translate GlobalBlockign ext to Serbian in the morning [12:38:09] Special:Version says "MediaWiki 1.11.1" yes.. [12:38:12] Mesophan: Well, could it be, that you have another MW folder somewhere? [12:38:22] how that isn't included in r33020 [12:39:10] No. The only file even looking close to Localsettings was found in "includes\templates\NoLocalSettings.php" [12:39:32] is that a disabler of some sort? [12:39:46] wait Sasa^Stefanovic [12:39:52] Mesophan: Well, then the folder does not include the running MW instance. [12:40:33] I can assure you it does. Putting other sample .PHP files in there, let me serve and test them from that particular folder. [12:40:57] Mesophan: Did you install your MW before you installed the extension? [12:41:39] Technically - no. Someone else did.. ;) [12:41:46] MW first, Extensions after [12:42:12] Its odd isnt it [12:43:56] Nikerabbit: are you still getting them? [12:44:00] 03aaron * r33021 10/trunk/phase3/includes/LinkCache.php: Allow $len/$redir to be passed in from other points [12:45:06] 03werdna * r33022 10/trunk/phase3/ (4 files in 2 dirs): Modify UserLoginComplete and UserLogoutComplete hooks to allow HTML injection into the success page by hooks. For CentralAuth 'global logging in' [12:46:27] 03grondin * r33023 10/trunk/extensions/GlobalBlocking/GlobalBlocking.i18n.php: Localisation updates for extensions messages from Betawiki [12:48:54] Mesophan: well, there *has* to be a LocalSettings.php if you installed the MW succesfully, because that is normally suspected to be done by the one installing it. so if there *is no* LocalSettings then the installation wasn't succesfully performed. [12:49:58] Mesophan: moving the LocalSettings.php is the last step by the installation to have a running MW instance. [12:50:14] /by/during/ [12:51:39] is it me or « Enhanced recent changes » using javascript don't work any more ? [12:52:00] AaronSchulz: http://rafb.net/p/4BpI8R23.html [12:52:16] logs seem top be no longer concatenated [12:52:25] s/top/to [12:52:27] guillom: fixed [12:52:28] Raymond_: what version? [12:52:46] AaronSchulz: Description: Notices in r33023 [12:52:50] ialex, since when? [12:53:02] Raymond_: what page? [12:53:06] guillom: this morning, just need a scap :) [12:53:13] ok, thanks [12:53:14] AaronSchulz: Main Page [12:53:35] lol, my main page too [12:53:37] ialex, j'avais la flemme de chercher sur bugzilla :) [12:53:40] wasn't showing for any other page [12:53:42] weird [12:53:56] guillom: je sais pas s'il y avait un bug pour ça :) [12:54:05] heh [12:54:48] AaronSchulz: 2 notices on a image description page [12:55:45] off [12:58:10] ok, found it [12:58:28] Raymond_: some random function was inputing the query results directly [12:58:38] ok :) [12:59:41] 03raymond * r33024 10/trunk/extensions/ (2 files in 2 dirs): Localisation updates German [13:02:46] 03aaron * r33025 10/trunk/phase3/includes/ (LinkBatch.php LinkCache.php OutputPage.php): [13:02:46] * Select len,is_redirect too [13:02:46] * Make visibility of linkcache stuff clearer [13:03:37] is it possible to store classes like templates inside of the wiki? [13:04:04] 03raymond * r33026 10/branches/REL1_12/ (5 files in 4 dirs): [13:04:04] Localisation updates German [13:04:04] Backport a few German language tweaks for a further release of 1.12 [13:05:20] AaronSchulz: thanks :) it works :) [13:07:19] Isnogud: Ok I understand. Incomplete MW installation on windows, yet the Wiki seems to be working as intended. How can I then "enable" LocalSettings? Some flag need to be set for MW to realize the job is done? [13:08:49] Mesophan: No. The LocalSettings.php that is generated during installation is *required* by the mediawiki. [13:09:07] and yet it works even if I delete it.. How do you explain that? [13:09:14] Mesophan: if you had a running MW then you also had a LocalSettings in place. [13:09:33] Mesophan: Magic? [13:10:13] Mesophan: could you generate a list of files in the Folder and paste them in a pastebin? [13:10:29] One moment... [13:12:42] Mesophan: I hope you don't have to fear to break someone elses wiki. [13:13:42] anyone care to speculate why php's internal mail function could return false, nothing in the logs, but only sometimes? it usually works [13:13:51] this is inside mediawiki [13:13:58] should i just switch to PEAR Mailer/ [13:13:59] ? [13:20:10] Seems online now.. dunno what happened there. [13:21:09] Mesophan: Well, indeed. It looks like your wiki is configured and run by deep magic :) [13:21:32] *Mesophan pounds his head into the desk repeatedly.. [13:23:01] Suggestions? [13:23:27] Mesophan: For what? That your extension is running now? [13:23:31] no. [13:24:09] pages with the extension-code still appears as if wrapped in [13:26:50] AaronSchulz, you just wasted 25 minutes of my time trying to figure out why talk pages were randomly showing up on the watchlist. :( [13:26:56] And you fixed it yourself. [13:27:13] You were passing a row with wl_namespace, wl_title set, when newFromRow wants page_namespace, page_title. [13:27:39] And it wasn't validating the input, so it was just doing random insane stuff. [13:27:53] But now that's pointless, you've switched that bit back to makeTitle. [13:35:15] Ugh, my Internet is super-slow. If this is my brother clogging up the tubes with BitTorrent, I'm going to kill him. [13:49:35] How do I make a local like to a category page. For instance, to: index.php/Category:Foo [13:50:06] [[:Category:Foo]] [13:51:02] Jack_Phoenix, ah, so the colon in front is the trick. :) Thanks. [13:51:14] np :) [13:57:36] hi, i have a problem when installing/developing variable extensions [13:58:36] it all works when i install one variable extension, but when i install two none of them works... [13:59:47] they both appear on special:version :s [14:00:20] how do I create an account for someone else ? [14:01:27] i think you have just to create it on special:createaccount [14:03:14] hello all, anyone know of a where to go to see a few different sample of mediawiki [14:06:51] Solid, http://www.wikimedia.org/? :þ [14:09:32] !$wgLogo [14:09:32] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "$wglogo". You might try: !logo [14:09:39] !wgLogo [14:09:39] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "wglogo". You might try: !logo [14:09:57] !wg Logo [14:09:57] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgLogo [14:10:00] :> [14:11:47] tank you. [14:15:23] I have read it severals time but after upgrade 1.11 > 1.12 and now it will not show. [14:18:14] in which file are coded variables like {{NUMBEROFPAGES}} et similia? [14:26:32] Hello ! I m looking for a way to make batch edit (tools) to my wiki, I like a command line tools, is there anything ? [14:28:00] yes [14:28:08] in maintenance/ directory [14:28:28] (if you are from server) [14:32:12] VasilievVV: Hello ! Can I batch upload files also ? [14:32:42] Hmmm... [14:32:54] Don't think there's maintenance script for this [14:33:45] What people do when they have to upload 100 small file ? [14:34:13] Uses pywikipedia? [14:34:20] Yes, there is. [14:34:22] #pywikipediabot [14:34:26] any ideas on how to include Category: pages in search results? AFAICT, they're not by default.. [14:34:36] Adylas, maintenance/importImages.php or something. [14:34:45] Yes, that's the right name. [14:35:02] Ha thank you. ! [14:35:07] paul_irish, you can configure whatever namespaces you want to be in the default results. Check the documentation for the exact option names. [14:35:30] Simetrical: do you know where that configuration resides? [14:35:31] Or use checkboxes at the bottom of Special:Search [14:35:36] paul_irish, note that users have a separate preference for this, and changing the sitewide preference will only affect anonymous users and newly-created ones. [14:35:43] !config | paul_irish [14:35:43] --mwbot-- paul_irish: All configuration is done in LocalSettings.php (near the end of the file). Editing other files means modifying the software. Default settings are not in LocalSettings.php, you can look in DefaultSettings.php. See , , [14:35:43] !localsettings | paul_irish [14:35:43] --mwbot-- paul_irish: All configuration is done in LocalSettings.php (near the end of the file). Editing other files means modifying the software. Default settings are not in LocalSettings.php, you can look in DefaultSettings.php. See , , [14:35:47] :( [14:36:36] sweetness. thanks boys. [14:38:13] hi [14:44:29] Simetrical: cool. found the setting.. but how can i change behavior for existing users? [14:46:39] mass-edit their user preferences in the DB tables? [14:47:18] paul_irish, yeah, pretty much. [14:47:24] There may be a maintenance script for that. [14:47:40] where should i look for that script? [14:48:49] Is there an extension which supports tags? Or should I just copy the source for [[Extension:MetaTags]] and replace all instances of "meta" withe "link"? [14:53:39] tags? [14:53:51] Why do you need to modify them? [14:54:35] We should have on paged pages. [14:54:41] I've been meaning to add those sometime. [14:54:55] Next/prev? [14:55:05] How would you determine them? [14:55:13] Using parser function? [14:55:41] huh, what happened to logs on recentchanges? they used to be folded in enhanced recentchanges now they are not [14:57:21] hi there I cannot upload a 4M exported xml. I have set post_max_size = 10M and upload_max_filesize = 8M in my /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and restarted apache, and in spite of this it does not work. Any comments? [14:58:49] VasilievVV: Because I want to add links to alternative versions of the page. [14:59:23] I have some wiki articles for which I have PDF versions available. I want to use to indicate that there is a PDF version. [15:00:11] I also have some pages for which I have independently generated RSS feeds. Obviously these feeds need to be in a element. [15:01:59] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual_talk:Hooks/ParserGetVariableValueSwitch i have the same problem too [15:14:44] Werdna: btw, using $action == "read" doesn't seem to be correct. Theoretically it may block actions like purge [15:20:08] 03tstarling * r33027 10/trunk/phase3/maintenance/tables.sql: Moved log_id to the top of the table definition for logging [15:21:12] hey there, question about mediawiki syntax... I want to transclude a page into another - know how to do that. but, I want to transclude an older version. is that possible?

[20:48:43] ... that fails [20:48:50] anyway, blackmagik: Special:Userrights [20:49:15] first i should ask where is a user's group stored in the db? [20:49:20] user table [20:49:24] no [20:49:29] user_groups table :) [20:49:52] *Skizzerz goes afk [20:49:53] those are the groups, where do i assign 'Skizzerz' to sysop [20:50:01] Special:UserRights [20:50:03] blackmagik: go to Special:Userrights on the wiki [20:50:14] or Special:UserRights if you have 1.13 :) [20:52:06] i'm not trying to do this manual, i'm working on some integration stuff and i want to place a user into a group. all in code [20:52:40] so could someone tell me how do i assign a User $u to the sysop group. if possible, please? [20:52:58] $u->addGroup('sysop'); [20:53:43] !dumpBackup [20:53:43] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "dumpbackup". You might try: !import [20:53:59] !export [20:53:59] --mwbot-- To export pages from a wiki, navigate to Special:Export on the wiki, type in the names of the pages to export, and hit "export". See for an example of this form. See also: !import [20:54:07] brion: thanks [20:55:19] brion: dumpBackup.php does not seem to handle utf8 characters correctly; is there a workaround for this? [20:55:43] I've tried MWDumper but it seems to just hang [20:55:48] blue_asterisk: it handles them just fine [20:55:53] can you explain what specifically appears wrong? [20:56:04] I'm after xml dumps.. [20:56:58] when I dump an xml file and then try to use importDump, it skips titles containing UTF-8 characters [20:57:16] blue_asterisk: can you show me a sample file? [20:58:32] ok, let me prepare it [21:01:11] Anyone able to help with this bug? I've setup a MediaWiki, but when I go to my articles, they're blank, even though the Edit shows content. I turned on warnings, and got the following: Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Compilation failed: this version of PCRE is not compiled with PCRE_UTF8 support at offset 0 [21:01:28] Raymond_? [21:01:55] AaronSchulz: yes? [21:02:14] can you add ar_rev_parent [21:02:20] I am too lazy [21:03:25] Cad|Working: yeouch :) [21:03:31] i guess.... recompile your pcre library :) [21:03:36] what os is this? [21:03:46] Fedore Core 4 [21:03:49] Fedora* [21:04:06] *ar_parent_id [21:04:41] What's confusing is it was working for about a day, and I started applying the rewrite to shorten the URLs, and after messing with that it stopped working. [21:05:01] I figured I messed up my MediaWiki install, so I reinstalled 3 times, and still have the same warning [21:05:08] AaronSchulz: hmm.. some way as rev_parent_id ? But i have to diig into this code [21:05:25] -i [21:05:58] Raymond_: just add it to the schema please, nullable unsigned integer and stuff [21:07:24] AaronSchulz: I will have a look tomorrow (now bedtime). [21:08:01] ok, thanks [21:15:38] brion: http://70.84.222.82/test.xml [21:16:50] 2008-04-09 14:16:45 ERROR 403: Forbidden. [21:17:38] ? [21:17:49] oh, are you using wget? [21:18:23] yep [21:18:42] why isn't my sidebar changing? I added a new link per the instructions in the FAQ. any ideas on this? [21:18:54] ok [21:18:59] try again [21:19:31] 2008-04-09 14:19:17 ERROR 404: Not Found. [21:19:31] can't win today ;) [21:19:32] ? [21:20:05] I can wget it [21:21:59] brion: sorry if I'm being a somewhat a nuisance, but does it work for you? [21:22:12] blue_asterisk: still 404 [21:22:13] I can access it via firefox and wget [21:22:40] http://70.84.222.82/test.xml ? [21:22:52] 88 [21:23:03] oops [21:23:06] ah, that helps :) [21:23:13] the pm was correct [21:23:16] sorry [21:23:28] That explains why I was being redirected to catholic.com [21:23:29] If I have 2 pages, one is: index.php/Some_Page and the other one is: index.php/Some_Page:Foobar -- Do those 2 pages have a special relationship because the way they're names, for instance, maybe Some_Page:Foobar is a subpage of Some_Page? [21:23:45] blue_asterisk: the field appears to be corrupt [21:23:56] <brion> can you confirm that the page works correctly on the wiki? [21:24:00] <blue_asterisk> yes [21:24:37] <blue_asterisk> it appears fine in the wiki [21:25:05] <brion> is the wiki accessible to the net? [21:25:28] <blue_asterisk> http://oce.catholic.com/index.php?title=Albert_St%C3%B6ckl [21:26:11] <CIA-48> 03siebrand * r33053 10/trunk/extensions/SocialProfile/ (3 files in 3 dirs): Some capitalisation fixes in messages (Upper Case -> Lower case) [21:27:26] <brion> http://oce.catholic.com/index.php?title=Special:Export/Albert_St%C3%B6ckl <- looks ok [21:27:36] <blue_asterisk> yup [21:28:01] <blue_asterisk> I'm using dumpBackup.php though [21:28:05] <brion> you working from the live wiki here, or a copy? [21:28:41] <blue_asterisk> it's a copy from using dumpBackup.php [21:28:58] <blue_asterisk> I'm certain that the content is identical [21:29:02] <brion> did you make this copy using mysqldump? [21:29:31] <blue_asterisk> I do have a mysqldump copy, but again it's from dumpBackup.php [21:29:42] <brion> well, the xml is from dumpBackup yes [21:30:04] <brion> but if you're running dumpBackup on a copy of the database that you made with mysqldump, it sounds like you've got a corrupted db [21:30:30] <brion> if you're using the default settings, in some cases at least, with mysql 4.1 or later, mysqldump will corrupt some of your data (such as titles) [21:30:44] <brion> try disabling the charset conversion when you make the sql dump [21:30:49] <blue_asterisk> I'm using mysql5 [21:31:49] <brion> --default-character-set=latin1 option may help you [21:32:02] <brion> this will avoid adding a conversion which actually just corrupts your data [21:32:11] <blue_asterisk> hmm [21:32:33] <brion> the problem is that mediawiki has been speaking utf-8, but mysql didn't know and thought it was latin1 [21:32:43] <brion> by default, mysqldump converts the data to utf-8 [21:32:52] <brion> but since the data was really utf-8 to begin with, this ends up corrupting it [21:33:02] <blue_asterisk> I've set my php and mysql to use utf8 [21:33:06] <brion> some of the bytes cannot be converted correctly, and you end up with corrupt data when you import it [21:33:21] <brion> well, check carefully :) [21:33:49] <blue_asterisk> I noticed that some utf8 chars are fine though :-/ [21:34:11] <brion> those in body text should be fine, since those fields are marked explicitly as binary blobs -- so they don't get converted [21:34:22] <brion> but other fields such as page titles and usernames may be corrupted [21:34:39] <brion> this is consistent with the sample file you showed me [21:34:57] <Emufarmers> masterflexor: Colons are for namespaces. If you wnat to create subpages, use slashes (/) [21:35:35] <blue_asterisk> brion: thanks [21:35:42] <Nicolas_Jager> :YazzY> is it possible to create a doc in mediawiki without publishing it? [21:35:44] <Nicolas_Jager> You could always write it in your userpage. Ex. User:YazzY/ArticleName [21:36:41] <brion> blue_asterisk: good luck! [21:37:02] <blue_asterisk> brion: I'll figure it out :) thanks again [21:38:16] <masterflexor> Emufarmers, what sideeffect could this have? [21:39:01] <masterflexor> Emufarmers, and, will I actually see a perciveable difference between using colons and slashes to separate the pages? [21:40:21] <Emufarmers> Foo/Bar can be a subpage of Foo if subpages are enabled for the main namespace; Foo:Bar would just be an ordinary title unless Foo is set as a namespace [21:40:40] <Emufarmers> Wait...that wasn't very clear...

[23:26:31] <IckyShuffle> I recall that I need to upgrade to an intermediate version before going straight to 1.12.0. [23:28:39] <Emufarmers> You should be able to just upgrade straight to 1.12.0, but make sure you make a backup first [23:28:50] <IckyShuffle> OK [23:30:03] <Emufarmers> You might be thinking of some of the stuff in http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/tags/REL1_12_0/phase3/UPGRADE [23:34:38] <IckyShuffle> That's it. I remembered it being more noticeable about the upgrade sections from older version but that is what I was thinking about. [23:34:49] <IckyShuffle> Thanks, Emufarmers.
