[00:19:20] hardware requirements ? [00:21:04] anything that will run apache, mysql, and php [00:21:40] hmm yeah but i cam do that on a 200mhz 128m ram machine :P [00:22:13] probably it will run, but will be slow. you may have to tune mysql to run in a smaller memory footprint [00:22:26] 128MB is more than enough [00:22:33] ok. i guess it runs on lighttpd too [00:22:42] oh, yes, right [00:23:12] ok, i'm gonna bug out for tonight. see ya :) [00:23:54] gn8 [00:26:41] hi, I'm getting this error: MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'wikidb.protected_titles' doesn't exist (localhost)".

[01:22:01] what kinda of math support? [01:22:22] latex formulas [01:22:35] lost me already lol [01:23:07] here's an example [01:23:10] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_series_%28mathematics%29 [01:23:31] the formulas are typeset in the wikitext, and show up as png [01:24:30] anyone here know mything about semantic mediawiki?

[01:29:13] erflynn: see the "facts about {{pagename}" section at the bottom left of the test group on the first link? I don't want that to show [01:29:58] i think you can edit the template [01:30:00] the table with the pluses. it's not in the template [01:30:12] it's something that semantic wikipedia is doing [01:31:47] naught101: hmm. i've used templates but i'm not familiar with this [01:32:36] ok, thanks anyway [01:32:44] naught101: take a look at this: http://en.envirowiki.info/index.php?title=Template:Group_Info&action=edit [01:33:18] erflynn: I have, I made that template, but the bit on the left is not in it [01:34:23] ok, whatever [01:45:47] I'm seeing tags show up in my wiki.

[01:47:15] MrZ-man|lazin: do you have a wiki with latex? [01:47:21] no [01:47:48] i'm about ready to rip my hair out [01:52:00] erflynn, is there a node that has an example of the template you linked to? [01:52:32] k4jcw: ask naught101 about that, not me [01:52:49] oops, you're right. [01:52:57] k4jcw: node? [01:52:57] np [01:53:28] article? page? Something that uses the template?

[02:09:10] How i can remove "Contents" in mediawiki? [02:09:28] I only can hide, but not remove [02:22:18] Oversight? [02:22:39] Jausk: what do you mean by contents? [02:23:33] for example if you go to this page [02:23:34] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone [02:23:48] you can see the contents table [02:23:58] __NOTOC__ [02:23:58] you want to hide the table of contents? [02:24:09] no, hide no [02:24:16] then what? [02:24:19] i want that this table dont appear [02:24:27] add __NOTOC__ to the page's source code [02:24:58] can you explain more please? [02:25:28] if you add the string __NOTOC__ to a page's wikicode, the table of contents will not be created [02:25:45] thanks :) [03:05:29] Dantman, and to put again the contents? [03:10:59] Eh? [03:14:15] I have put __NOTOC__ in the page [03:14:25] and after I have deleted the page [03:14:49] and now i want that the contests apear again [03:14:57] but i cant do it [03:15:13] its dosent apear [03:40:58] 03shinjiman * r33410 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/ (5 files): [03:40:58] Localisation updates Cantonese, Chinese and Old/Late Time Chinese [03:40:58] Add colons for consistency with other input fields. [03:46:02] Jausk: If you do not put the string __NOTOC__ in the page, the contents are created and shown if there are at least three chapter headings in the page.

[05:22:25] i get this when i upload a JPG of 992kb [05:22:27] what's wrong? [05:22:41] the images directory is writable, i uploaded a 131kb png [05:23:07] -.- I've been milling this over and churning it over Google for like an hour, and it was there all along, I just had the term wrong. Thanks, tale. [05:23:16] hey guys [05:23:27] hey [05:24:04] trying to find the most effective way of using mediawiki in our office.... we have several departsments, all of which need to have permissions for groups, and access only to their department area of the wiki, plus the primary section of the wiki [05:24:17] ie: departmental wiki access :-D [05:24:33] anyone know of any ways of making this work, or if their are plugins and extensions to do so or? [05:27:47] would namespaces and namespace access be the best way of doing this or? [05:28:38] why is everybody ignoring me? [05:29:40] Cloud, its not that everyone is ignoring you, its more than likely that a.) they are either busy or asleep, or b.) those able to answer your questions are not available to do so currently and will do so when they have time :) [05:30:05] make sure you provide as much detail as possible concerning what you are needing assistance with, and then be patient :) [05:30:19] oh i see daemoen [05:33:11] Cloud: If you uploaded a PNG file, why is the file named .jpg? [05:34:09] tale: what i mean is that i uploaded a 130kb png, and it works fine [05:34:17] But nevertheless, despite you saying images directory is writable, I suspect the user the file upload runs as does not have permission to that public directory. [05:34:33] there isn't even a public directory in there [05:34:38] so why could the png be uploaded? [05:34:47] and mediawiki doesn't even have an error log [05:34:53] Cloud: Now I see, There is a limit on uploade file size. [05:35:01] how do i change it? [05:35:05] Perhaps you are running into that problem? [05:35:39] how do i change the limit? [05:36:18] Cloud: See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuring_file_uploads [05:37:00] Cloud: And check that the disk or disk quota is not full. [05:37:07] uh tale, 900+ KB isn't 2MB [05:37:12] I'M NOT HITTING THE UPLOAD LIMIT [05:37:56] anyone happen to know of an inline viewer for mediawiki.... ie: i upload a pdf and provide a link to it, instead of it being a dl file, it being displayed inline within mediawiki (still looking through extensions), same for xls etc [05:38:11] Cloud: How do you know the upload limit on your wiki is 2 MB? [05:38:35] tale: the upload limit is set in php.ini [05:38:41] Cloud: And do not shout. [05:38:50] ; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files. [05:38:50] upload_max_filesize = 100M [05:39:03] that's way more than 900KB [05:39:16] it worked till someone suggested an upgrade to the latest mediawiki version [05:39:19] Cloud: I seriously doubt Mediawiki uses that as file size limit. [05:39:27] and i didn't do an upgrade; I clean installed [05:39:32] even made a new SQL db [05:39:36] and now this happens [05:39:56] Cloud: You did not say if you checked you have disk space or disk quota left? [05:39:56] if the images dir was not writable, how would the PNG have uploaded? [05:40:12] free space: 3.51GB [05:40:17] Is JPG an allowed file type? [05:40:22] where do i set it? [05:40:41] Cloud: You do not read much manuals, do you? [05:41:29] tale: the localsettings.php from my old wiki dir had no mention of allowed file types [05:41:32] and it still uploaded fine [05:41:47] the same jpg was uploaded successfully to the old wiki [05:42:23] and localsettings.ini fails, why can't they put every variable there and comment out the unneeded ones? [05:42:48] instead, they don't even define BASIC THINGS like the wglogo and wgstylepath [05:43:04] i had to go to the mediawiki website to dig around [05:43:09] wasted 20 minutes of my time [05:43:13] Cloud: Provide a patch that does what you need. [05:43:42] Cloud, coming in and ranting about things that seem broken will resolve nothing., Instead, find a productive way of addressing issues, file bug reports, make suggestions, etc. [05:43:46] Cloud: Or read the manual or FAQ that explains how to change the logo. [05:44:02] Or, if you are familiar with php, mysql, etc, why not join the development team :) [05:45:26] morning [05:45:36] Nikerabbit: Huomenta. [05:46:22] all variables are documented in defaultsettings [05:46:23] why doesn't mediawiki have an error log? [05:46:35] or is it not enabled by default? [05:47:15] Cloud: There is web server error log and PHP error log. Both can be enabled, [05:47:47] Cloud: But you may need root permission to read the web server logs.

[05:55:02] Dantman yeah I did, but the folder is empty [05:55:08] stupid mediawiki... [05:55:13] web server logs show no errors [05:56:37] $wgDebugComments = true? [05:58:15] Nikerabbit: it's true now [05:58:18] but still empty log [05:58:38] it can write the image to the temp dir in the images folder [05:58:45] but it can't rename the effing thing to its proper name [05:58:46] WTF [05:59:26] sounds like simple permission problem [06:00:32] permission problem? [06:00:33] if there were a permission problem, how could it even get the file to the temp dir in the first place? [06:01:02] and the temp dir is in the images folder [06:01:48] different directories can have different permissions you know [06:02:14] Nikerabbit: it even made the directory [06:02:22] but it can't move the picture in there [06:03:40] heh heh... i gave Everyone full control to my entire wiki folder [06:04:20] and I made replaced the permissions of everything inside the folder with that of the parent [06:04:23] and it works [06:04:33] i think that's called chmod 777 in UNIX [06:08:38] How does wikibooks create PDF versions?

I see [08:11:47] is there a foreach statement in mediawiki, and would it be possible to find out how many titleparts there are/ [08:11:49] ? [08:16:41] otherwise, would there be a way of doing something like continent1=africa continent2=asia etc. and then list all continent* variables/ [08:16:52] ? stupid shift key [08:18:06] you could install StringFunctions.. but meh, bit extreme [08:22:26] Hi gays , can I manage mediawiki users , like nis users ?

[13:15:20] !shorturl | gemema [13:15:20] --mwbot-- gemema: To create simple URLs (such as the /wiki/PAGENAME style URLs on Wikimedia sites), follow the instructions at .

If you have problems getting the rewrite rules to work, see !rewriteproblem [13:16:32] Simetrical: is a 301 redirect the most efficient way of doing this then? [13:17:16] gegema, well, I'm not clear on what your setup is. What you asked isn't so clear to me. [13:18:52] 03(mod) "Revert to this version" link for admins - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1511 (10Simetrical+wikibugs) [13:20:21] when the browser gets a 301 moved permanently header, it will never go to that url again, but to the redirect address every time; if you put a 307 response it will visit the original url every time [13:25:04] Simetrical: the scenario is, say I have /var/www on my server which is the webroot. The wiki install is at /var/www/wiki. My question was how to set things up in a way that people can get to the wiki page when they go to www.example.com without having to put the wiki folder on /var/www [13:25:45] gegema, you can edit .htaccess or httpd.conf to add a Redirect directive, so that going to www.example.com redirects you to www.example.com/wiki/. [13:26:00] moisador1, in theory. In practice, it will in fact check for the redirect every time. [13:26:18] And HTTP 1.0 doesn't support 307, AFAIK. 302 is the usual one for "moved temporarily". [13:26:46] point your vhost's DocumentRoot to point to /var/www/wiki [13:27:45] That would have a different effect, putting it actually in the document root instead of just redirecting to it. [13:27:56] Officially that's not recommended, although in practice it's probably harmless.

[13:57:47] tale: opening it in the wiki/config/index.php gives the same error [13:58:08] tale: Does this mean I have not uploaded the files properly? [13:58:13] tale: Should I re-upload?

[14:00:16] tale: can it happen that a file is uploaded half? I mean there is a index.php but just partially uploaded one so that we see it in the directory listing but it is incomplete? [14:00:31] tale: or would a fully completed files only be listed? [14:01:13] sdakak: Yes. [14:01:35] But check you have StartProfiler.php in your wiki- directory and its size.

[14:03:31] sdakak: Better overwrite, there may be partial files. [14:03:44] sdakak: I have no idea. [14:03:55] tale: What if this time too they are partially transferred? Can we check somehow?

[14:16:50] sdakak, then it sucks. [14:16:57] sdakak: you have to use 1.6.10 [14:16:58] sdakak, MediaWiki 1.6 will run on PHP 4. [14:17:08] As the topic says. [14:17:44] The web host never says it clearly. I found this in their forums. Should I trust it And go on uploading the files? [14:17:51] the upload is taking toooooooo much time. [14:18:17] i want to install gadget extension on my wiki [14:18:20] you can check yourself [14:18:22] <^demon> sdakak: Rather than trust the forums, test it yourself.

[14:19:23] demon should I make that file? [14:19:45] <^demon> Yes. [14:19:54] <^demon> Call it info.php or something then put it on your server. [14:20:16] with just "" on it right? [14:20:24] yeah [14:21:08] sdakak: You could ask the customer support, perhaps they have php5 but it needs to be turned on for each customer. [14:21:56] <^demon> I hate when you open a new tab and then blank on what URL you were about to type.... [14:22:06] yea [14:22:21] <^demon> You just site there looking at the tab going...Uh....what was that again? [14:22:24] demon: You saved me. It says PHP Version 4.4.0 [14:23:00] demon: that means I can't use mw 1.12 right? [14:23:07] <^demon> Nope, 1.6.x series only. [14:23:17] Thank you :) [14:23:19] One webhotel I used had by default only php 4, but I asked and they changed php5 for my account. [14:23:21] <^demon> sdakak: Then I would ask if they could move you to PHP5 if at all possible. If they can't I'd suggest finding a new host, personally. [14:23:42] I will have to upload everything again. The upload is SO SLOW. I have been uploading 20mb files since 3 hours now. [14:24:13] <^demon> Is that because your internet is slow or their server is slow? 20MB shouldn't take /that/ long. [14:24:56] my net is 2mbps. I get 1.5mbps. But its again adsl. And their server seems slower. [14:25:34] hehe [14:27:17] I am starting to realise that a free web host just gives you free worries. [14:27:27] Do you have any recommendation for a free web host? [14:27:54] <^demon> Nope, they're all pretty bad. Hehe, this is coming from someone who handled support for one :-P [14:28:04] sdakak: In Finland it is about 100 euro per year for a good web hotel. [14:28:35] tale: hotel :) [14:28:43] still what's the least bad? [14:29:08] <^demon> I really don't even know anymore. Who's still in the market of free hosting? Anyone?

[20:54:52] 	Is there any good reason [[:Image:Blah.pdf]] doesn't take Image:Blah.pdf out of [[Special:Unusedimages]]?
[20:55:46] 	it's not being used, just being linked to
[20:55:53] 	dunno if it's a good reason though ;-)
[20:59:14] 	I have installed v1.9, I think, but I'm not sure how to check the version #. The User Guide link on the main page is linked to http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents instead of mediawiki. Is this correct?
[20:59:40] 	asarand, to check your wiki's version, browse to the special page called Special:Version :-)
[20:59:53] *Tanktalus 	is trying to use a multi-paragraph ordered list ("#") ... is there a way with wikitext, or do I have to go to html?
[21:01:19] 	OK, the version page says it's 1.11.0, so is the link to wikimedia instead of mediawiki correct?
[21:01:43] 	e.g., http://rafb.net/p/qc3JuE17.html
[21:01:44] 	hm, not sure why it (still) links to Meta-Wiki at meta.wikimedia.org
[21:01:58] 	MediaWiki's documentation was once stored in meta.wikimedia.org
[21:02:13] 	AaronSchulz, here is a patch that solves my problem, though I'm not sure why... http://rafb.net/p/XoXPXh59.html
[21:02:16] 	OK. all I know is the help there is confusing and doesn't seem to match the version I'm using.
[21:02:18] 	dunno which site -- meta.wikimedia.org or mediawiki.org -- has a more comprehensive guide
[21:02:20] 	probably mw.org
[21:03:46] 	next question: is there a comprehensive guide to making changes to the main.css file (a copy of course) to change the colors used in the wiki?
[21:04:29] 	rainman-sr: makes sense
[21:07:52] 	03aaron * r33455 10/trunk/phase3/includes/ (Article.php Block.php LogPage.php SpecialBlockip.php): 
[21:07:52] 	* Move affectedRows count up
[21:07:52] 	* Shouldn't need to pass db object here
[21:07:52] 	* Some code style tweaks
[21:09:35] 	03aaron * r33456 10/trunk/extensions/CheckUser/CheckUser.php: Remove extra declaration
[21:09:38] 	AaronSchulz, yay, works now :)
[21:11:37] 	is there a comprehensive guide to making changes to the main.css file (a copy of course) to change the colors used in the wiki? All of the skins I have looked at have main.css files that are totally different from the main.css file included with monobook. I don't want to change the layout, just the colors.
[21:16:52] 	Jack_Phoenix: I stuck a Media: link inside a hidden div >:}
[21:16:59] 	rainman-sr: btw, does your RC have deletion log entries?
[21:17:05] 	hehe
[21:17:36] 	is this not the right channel to ask about changing the main.css file in? if so, which channel should I join?
[21:18:00] 	Hi!
[21:18:42] 	I have install the mediawiki and I want to link .doc archive that I have in my lan
[21:19:10] 	AaronSchulz, yes
[21:19:48] 	but when I linked the file for example [C:\temp\lala.odt lala]
[21:20:35] 	Jausk: file://C:\temp\lala.odt might work
[21:20:41] 	thanks!
[21:20:55] 	i want to try
[21:21:54] 	no MinuteElectron its doesnt work
[21:22:46] 	there is a config variable, look on mw.org
[21:23:06] 	mw.org doesnt work
[21:26:36] 	I remember seeing an extension at one point that let you 'prefill' page content based on page name... anyone know what extension I'm thinking of?
