[00:04:04] can someone give me a hand for [00:04:06] templates? [00:04:32] because it doesnt work on mine [00:05:15] why isnt there a border when i use a template [00:05:16] ? [00:05:28] 03siebrand * r33531 10/trunk/extensions/Translate/MessageGroups.php: [00:05:28] Change ordering of extensions in meta group 'Extensions Used by Wikimedia' a [00:05:28] bit.

The most common issues with templates copied from Wikipedia can be fixed by installing ParserFunctions and enabling HTML Tidy . [00:06:29] someone can tell me why my template doesnt make a box [00:07:21] what code are you using to create a border in the template? [00:08:08] mh [00:08:12] i am just using [00:08:17] that one from template tutorial [00:08:34] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template [00:08:51] but on mine there is not a box and it writes all the things in one line [00:12:08] mh [00:15:12] which example? Template:Thankyou ? [00:15:35] you have to put the code to create the border in the template itself [00:16:16] it uses "

" with "

" at the bottom of the template [00:17:02] ehm [00:17:26] so the first code comes on the top [00:17:31] and the last on the bottom [00:17:31] ?

This is to avoid confusion like [00:24:07] that exhibited at bug 13503; it's a fairly unusual situation in MediaWiki to be [00:24:09] unable to reverse your own actions, so a notice seems to be appropriate.

[01:09:46] s/you're/your/ [01:09:56] k4jcw: only anons (and additionally users if you so desire) [01:10:37] is group support planned? [01:10:38] How will users be specified? [01:10:53] Or does users simply mean logged in users? [01:11:00] Not an ACL. [01:12:28] k4jcw: all logged in users [01:12:45] Think there's any chance of being able to specify a user list? [01:13:05] maybe... but that'd be one hell of a syntax [01:13:40] but the flags themselves are going way out of my original scope, so I dunno :P [01:14:04] chelz: group support planned for what? [01:14:55] I see the -n*, -c*, etc syntax, but I'm not clear what's intended to be specified by the * [01:15:32] Or are you using that to indicate default? [01:15:42] If so, you should remove the regex comment, since it's conflicting. [01:16:18] indicate default [01:17:10] how is the regex conflict conflicting? [01:17:29] if it's -r, it's treated as a literal string instead of as a regex fragment [01:19:04] 03(WONTFIX) Admins don' t see when page creations match against the blacklist - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13780 +comment (10soxred93) [01:19:26] How about +u specified anon and users, where +u:user1,user2 would apply the permissions to user1 and user2?

[02:14:56] then you must have deleted it [02:15:07] AdminSettings.sample ships with mediawiki [02:15:20] Oh, of course, how obvious. I always just blow away random files for no apparent reason. [02:15:31] okay, then the computer pixies deleted it [02:15:45] ;) [02:16:31] How about instead it's in /usr/share/doc, and it's a bz2 file? [02:16:55] ah, you're using a package mangled mediawiki [02:17:17] Yes. Gentoo. [02:17:40] Does it want to be in the mediawiki directory, or the maintainence directory? [02:18:07] it should be in the directory above the maintenance directory [02:18:12] k [02:18:24] well.. that's where it should be in normal mediawiki. who knows what gentoo did to it [02:20:08] Excellent.

[04:31:30] *break [04:31:41] sdakak: They need read permissions. [04:31:47] What is go=r? [04:32:04] It means group and others get read permission. [04:32:12] sdakak: that is the equivalent of 755 or rwxr-xr-x [04:32:13] tale: what would a execute permission to .png theme file, a .css file, or a .php file mean? [04:32:19] sdakak: There is man page for chmod, as you perhaps are awere? [04:32:31] tale: I am, it's to intimidating :( [04:32:38] *too [04:32:41] sdakak: It means the file can be "executed".

And how is it important to these kind of non-executable files? [04:33:48] tale: chelz: does an execute a .php file when viewing it in the browser or read it? [04:33:51] *one [04:34:31] sdakak: Give it a rest. Set the permissions as instructed and go read a book on Unix file permissions. [04:34:47] tale: just a pointer on it? [04:34:59] sdakak: Pointer to what? [04:35:09] tale: to "how would you execute a .css, a .php or a .png file? And how is it important to these kind of non-executable files?" [04:35:54] sdakak: Perhaps google for "unix file permissions". It finds this: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~rc/help/faq/permissions.html [04:36:23] tale: I tried looking but I can't figure out how a .png file can be executed. [04:36:34] tale: I am assuming the executable permission is redundant in non-bin files? [04:37:26] sdakak: A .css etc file can be executed as any other file, but most likely a .css file fails because the interpreter can not make heads or tails on the contents. [04:38:01] tale: does my web-server 'execute' a .php mediawiki file or read it? [04:38:12] tale: If it executes then other probably need to be given execute permission also. [04:38:12] sdakak: It is not redundant. Set an execute permission on a .png or whatever file, and start it and you will see. [04:38:36] sdakak: Did you read the contents of the link already? [04:38:45] tale: no [04:39:04] sdakak: I thought you are very fast reader but perhaps I was mistaken. [04:39:05] tale: I just want to know whether .php files on a web server are executed in media wiki or read. [04:39:43] sdakak: It is enough if you give them read permission, then the web server can read them and give them to the PHP runtime to be executed. [04:39:58] tale: thank you :) [04:40:39] tale: And yes I can read very fast ;) [04:40:42] sdakak: Are you sure you were forced to ask that question and totally unable to figure it out by youself with 10 seconds hard pondering? [04:40:54] tale: c'mon. [04:41:06] tale: I find it better to get these peculiar non-general question to real people [04:41:13] tale: rather than generic faqs. [04:41:30] sdakak: You were already told read permissions are enough and the .php files work. As for executing, what do you thing the PHP code is there for? [04:41:30] tale: I didn't want to know about file permissions but how mediawiki would handle execute and read permissions for others. [04:41:47] tale: I know, that is what caused the confusion. [04:41:52] sdakak: That question was not particularly non-general. [04:42:09] sdakak: You did start by asking file permissions. [04:42:13] 03(mod) Install ConfirmAccount extension on enwiki - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13782 (10overlordq) [04:42:35] tale: still it is not clear, when others have the 'read' permission the web server reads the file and executes it. The client doesn't execute it so the execute permission is not required. [04:42:41] tale: Is that a clear understanding. [04:43:00] sdakak: Could you formulate it more clearly? [04:43:07] tale: I am, the non-general definition is relative esp. for someone starting up. [04:43:15] tale: Let's say others have a read permission. [04:43:28] tale: And they go to my mediawiki site and view a . php file. [04:43:41] sdakak: only binaries or scripts can be executed. the execute flag is mostly irrelevant on files that don't contain executable data. the execute flag has another meaning for directories though. [04:43:57] tale: And when the server sees that they have a read permission it passes the file to the php interpreter [04:44:10] tale: And the are able to execute a .php file by just having a read permission this way. [04:44:13] tale: Is that right? [04:44:20] tale: Aren't php files interpreted, executed? [04:45:04] sdakak: What did the http://www.dartmouth.edu/~rc/help/faq/permissions.html write about this? [04:47:21] tale: I again read it, it says execute is not required for data files. [04:47:31] tale: but my question still is, is a .php file a data file? [04:47:41] tale: or a file that needs to be interpreted - executed? [04:48:32] sdakak: yes, it is interpreted by the php module of the webserver [04:48:45] sdakak: I have to review what I wrote previously, I may have written something about that. Can you find anything relevant? [04:49:02] sdakak: you could read more about it by looking at the php article on wikipedia. php is an "interpreted language" [04:49:04] chelz: so in the end doesn't it need to be executed by others? [04:49:13] tale: let me see [04:49:43] (10:09:33 AM) tale: sdakak: It is enough if you give them read permission, then the web server can read them and give them to the PHP runtime to be executed. [04:50:04] but that still doesn't clear up things. [04:50:12] maybe irc is not meant for this. [04:50:13] :( [04:52:35] sdakak: it does need to have executable permissions in the "other" section rwxr-xr-x [04:52:48] i'm pretty sure [04:52:50] php scripts don't need +x to be run by the webserver [04:52:56] ah nvm then [04:53:00] all it does is read the contents [04:53:09] scripts run by the kernel directory do need +x [04:53:15] directly [04:53:22] seemed strange to me, but i was troubleshooting a php thing recently and it all worked once i chmod -R 755 over the dir [04:53:39] i figured that was the issue, guess not tho [04:53:57] flyingparchment: Can you explain why 'others' don't need execute when the .php files actually need to be interpreted? [04:54:22] sdakak: execute means the kernel can execute it. the php interpreter is not the kernel. all it does is read the file [04:54:49] unlike perl, for instance, where you write #! /usr/bin/perl, and execute it via the kernel, and the kernel invokes perl - those scripts do need +x [04:54:55] php doesn't work that way [04:55:15] flyingparchment: And that explanation stays true in a web server running php also? [04:55:27] yes [04:55:39] flyingparchment: so the php files are executed outside of the kernel? [04:56:03] flyingparchment: And does that mean that files that are executed outside of the kernel don't need the +x? [04:56:08] that's not exactly what i said (although it is true); rather, the kernel is not involved in starting the program that executes them [04:56:18] flyingparchment: Who decides where 'outside' 'inside' will afile be executed? [04:56:20] perl scripts don't execute in the kernel either, but the kernel starts the perl interpreter [04:56:28] sdakak: i don't understand that question [04:56:33] flyingparchment: who starts the php interpreter? [04:56:37] the web server [04:56:53] flyingparchment: what in a web server, not the kernel so what else starts it? [04:57:04] i don't understand that question either [04:57:13] flyingparchment: I think that clears up most of things. [04:57:20] flyingparchment: Even I don't understand what I am asking. [04:57:29] flyingparchment: I will give it a rest till I know more php. [04:57:33] flyingparchment: thank you :) [04:57:59] + $form .= Xml::submitButton( wfMsgHtml('revreview-submit'), array('id' => 'mw-submitbutton')+$toggle); [04:58:11] basically, the web server sees you request "foo.php". it knows files named *.php are "php scripts". it knows these files should be passed to the PHP interpreter, so it does so. the PHP interpreter executes them and sends the result back to the web server [04:59:27] with perl CGIs, the web server sees you request foo.cgi, or /cgi-bin/foo, and from the filename it knows that's a CGI script. so it executes the script (via the kernel), and reads the output. because the kernel is involved in executing them, CGI scripts need +x [04:59:59] you _could_ have a web server that invoked perl directly for files named *.cgi, and have it work like PHP... but no one ever does that [05:00:24] flyingparchment: I get it and somehow php was designed to be passed instructions directly from the web server without going through the kernel. [05:00:38] yes. because usually the PHP interpreter is embedded in the web server itself [05:00:44] whereas that's not the case with CGI [05:00:54] flyingparchment: alright. :) [05:01:18] awesome design really, it means any php bug (of which there are many) can crash the entire web server [05:03:44] oh. [05:04:00] Ignorance is bliss, now how do i apt-get install mediawiki :)) [05:12:06] you probably don't want to, they usually provide old version [05:15:55] can I embed an iframe in a page? [05:35:11] Ubuntu has recent version of MediaWiki, and the 8.04 Ubuntu coming out next week probably has MW 1.12. [05:36:36] I use one MediaWiki installation that runs MW 1.7. That is planned to be upgraded to 1.12 after Ubuntu 8.04 comes out. [05:45:03] tale: Hardy Heron has 1.11 right now, and I doubt it's going to be upgraded before the release. [05:55:26] toweri: Really? I thought it had 1.12. Well, live and learn. [06:02:11] are the latest MW releases production-stable? [06:02:25] for medium sized sites at least [06:02:46] If it's not from svn it's as stable as it gets [06:03:04] ah [06:03:36] is there a mailing list or rss for the latest releases or security updates? [06:03:37] i'd say svn is stable enough for 'medium sized' sites [06:03:47] chelz: lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/mediawiki-announce [06:04:33] flyingparchment: i try to keep away from custom builds if i can help it. there's always a chance you grab just after stuff has been broken [06:04:36] ty :) [06:04:56] just check which revision wikipedia is running [06:05:18] MediaWiki 1.13alpha (r33518) [06:05:24] ah [06:05:25] haha [06:05:34] so 33518 is probably quite stable [06:05:41] yeah, good call [06:31:52] 03nikerabbit * r33540 10/trunk/ (3 files in 2 dirs): [06:31:52] * Parse messages in correct language, so plurals and grammar might even work correctly [06:31:52] * Deprecated one unneeded parameter in one message [06:35:02] if anyone cares. my problem from yesterday (about failed {{SITENAME}} and other variables) was caused by bug(?) in php that makes mbstring.func_overloading parameter unstable [06:35:45] it does not seem to be changing back to zero for sites that wants it (actually it sometimes changes and sometimes not) [06:36:20] so substr() function was sometimes overloaded and sometimes not.

I think that should not be done though... [06:59:43] anyone got any tips for implementing a captcha for user registration? [06:59:53] like we don't have enough to work around already? we probably have wrappers or compatibility code for half of php's functions or other bugs [07:00:12] pcmattman: install confirmedit extensions [07:00:19] thanks [07:00:36] mbstring.func_overloading shouldn't be available at all I think.. [07:00:45] ah [07:01:05] if it can be changed on fly we could try to turn it off... [07:01:10] well who knows if the devs are aware of it. submitting a bug would let them decide if it's worth addressing. [07:02:03] problem is that that mbstring.func_overloading won't always go to zero even if it is set to zero [07:02:18] strange [07:02:19] or actually it goes to zero, but functions are still overloaded [07:02:34] http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=39361 [07:02:59] they say that bug is fixed though [07:03:07] Peruna: the pages say that it is not stable "per directory" whatever it means [07:04:09] Note: It is not recommended to use the function overloading option in the per-directory context, because it's not confirmed yet to be stable enough in a production environment and may lead to undefined behaviour. [07:04:09] I guess that it means that when you try to set it to zero in apache's Directory tag it does not always work [07:04:55] does that mean ini_set will always work? [07:05:07] it didn't seem to work for me [07:05:17] blah [07:05:24] not much we can do for it.. [07:05:26] i tried to put that to LocalSettings.php [07:05:47] there is already check in the intaller for it [07:05:49] yeah. I know [07:07:16] only thing that might be good to do is to warn about this problem somewhere. even though it is not mediawiki's problem [07:19:41] 03(mod) DPL2's include parameter broken with new parser - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13677 +comment (10brunomarcuzzo) [07:27:21] <_wooz> lo [07:31:17] 03siebrand * r33542 10/trunk/extensions/CentralAuth/CentralAuth.i18n.php: Update 'centralauth-admin-unmerge-success' ($2 -> $1) [07:38:20] 03(mod) More flexible reports, dynamic arguments, template awareness ... - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9203 +comment (10brunomarcuzzo) [08:12:41] I had this problem before but can't remember how to solve it: I set up a new wiki, but can't login. Is there a way to create login details through phpMyAdmin? [08:13:25] Or maybe add something to LocalSettings? [08:13:32] insert into user? [08:15:25] maybe, but what to insert [08:15:59] well... [08:16:08] describe user; [08:16:14] fill in appropriate data for each field [08:16:30] user_password is md5(concat(user_id,md5('password'))) [08:18:12] 03(NEW) Email notification borked - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13783 trivial; normal; MediaWiki: Email; (azatoth) [08:19:03] Werdna: ↑ [08:19:28] ?

[08:41:21] VonSchmut: $wgGroupsAddToSelf = array( 'sysop' ); [08:47:40] I just did $wgGroupPermissions['user']['userrights'] = true; [08:48:18] wish I could figure out how to create a new password through the db though [08:48:19] hmm [08:48:40] !passwordsql | VonSchmut [08:48:40] --mwbot-- VonSchmut: UPDATE user SET user_password=MD5(CONCAT(user_id, "-", MD5("password"))) WHERE user_name='John_Smith'; This will reset the password for the user with user_name 'John Smith'.

[09:08:19] VonSchmut: should not. but never tested [09:12:34] is there some books for mediawiki? best in german? [09:12:41] i have a wiki based on mediawiki and many problems with structuer and some other things [09:14:25] slwawn, what kind of books ? [09:14:52]
