[00:00:48] 03(mod) Implement the ScriptLoader into the core. - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18464 (10dale) [00:05:43] 03dale * r50294 10/trunk/extensions/MetavidWiki/skins/mv_embed/ (3 files in 3 dirs): fixed old jQuery reference [00:15:36] Simetrical: what do you think of this location? http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60763-d1181739-Reviews-The_Jane-New_York_City_New_York.html [00:15:44] looks like it's west village or so [00:18:29] werdna, heck if I know. [00:19:20] I meant location, not the actual place [00:19:27] presumably you know if it's a safeish area, and so on [00:28:05] hi, how I can to delete the all records of my wiki? [00:30:00] What do you mean? [00:30:46] I want to clean up the "Recent Changes" [00:32:10] or all records to start a new clean wiki [00:32:24] ok i'm getting out of here before i go mad :D [00:32:25] see y'all [00:32:27] without uninstall the wiki [01:03:02] Is there a documented way to print out a page's content without a theme (aka for integrating into other systems such as PHPBB)? [01:03:16] pull from the API perhaps [01:04:10] isn't it doing it as simple? [01:05:22] http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&useskin=simple would be the simplest [01:05:29] think you can do it simpler tho [01:06:54] Or would it just be easier to copy a template style from phpbb to mediawiki? (just a header and navigation top) [01:06:59] cridenour, &useskin=myskin [01:07:41] Reedy: yea that's definitely what I was looking for :) [01:07:50] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page?action=render [01:08:12] or that ;P [01:10:42] Do you feel think I'll be missing out on any big functionality of the wiki doing it this way (it's really only being edited by a few people, most are just reading it) [01:20:38] 03dale * r50295 10/trunk/extensions/MetavidWiki/skins/mv_embed/ (5 files in 4 dirs): stubs for pre-loading future clips [01:21:18] thank you Reedy & anomie! [01:21:23] np [01:21:37] np [01:32:05] is there some extension.can do something like this:put some tag on page A.then the A will auto link to Category B.just like workflu. [01:33:50] you don't need an extension for that [01:33:53] just use a template [01:33:59] !template [01:33:59] --mwbot-- For more information about templates, see . The most common issues with templates copied from Wikipedia can be fixed by installing ParserFunctions and enabling HTML Tidy . [01:36:02] good [01:37:39] but in a template you cant choose where to output. [01:38:22] sometime i need asign who will get the new info [01:43:24] 03(mod) Imagick support in SVG to PNG conversion - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18691 (10yecarrillo) [02:08:06] hi [02:08:57] did brion mention a target date for next scap ? [02:13:18] I was chatting to him today [02:13:22] basically when code review's done [02:13:56] What a surprise [02:29:10] 03aaron * r50296 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/FlaggedRevs.hooks.php: Make sure 'view' link always shows the revision [02:30:28] hi,all [02:30:48] ThomasV_: Early next week is the goal. [02:31:17] how can i add some abstract info on each page.including:last change time,editor. [02:31:37] Why are MediaWiki's cookies so weird :< [02:31:46] As in, the LoggedOut cookie stays there even when the user is logged in [02:33:17] How should I know if a user is logged in? The UserId cookie? [02:41:12] Cookies are just a strange beast period, if you ask me. [02:42:27] How does MediaWiki figure out if someone is logged in? [02:44:11] You should have a cookie .mw_session [02:44:18] For example my wiki is tflca_mediawiki_mw__session [02:44:46] It will have a value equal to a session ID that I believe is held in a table within the database. [02:45:06] I have a cookie with the session ID, but that stays there after one logs out [02:45:32] It will I believe, depending on the expiration. [02:45:40] (You'd think MW would delete it, though) [02:46:01] It should, by default, be set to a duration of "session" [02:46:13] So the cookie will be kept only until you quit or restart your browser. [02:47:06] MediaWiki doesn't delete it [02:47:15] MediaWiki only deletes the UserID and Token cookies [02:48:43] It will be purged by your browser at the end of the session. [02:48:54] What are you trying to do, exactly? [02:49:42] I have to determine if the user is logged in or not [02:49:51] via cookies [02:52:01] I don't see what the issue is then, exactly. If wikimedia deletes the UserID cookie on a logout, then it would be reasonable to assume that would be an indicator of Logged In status. [02:53:27] *chuck wonders how Wikimedia does it [02:53:48] does what? [02:55:17] flyingparchment: Determines whether or not to show a cached version of a page [02:55:25] (based on whether or not the user is logged in) [02:55:49] are you talking about squid caching or mediawiki? [02:55:54] squid caching [02:56:09] 03aaron * r50297 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/ (FlaggedRevs.hooks.php FlaggedRevs.php): Line breaks & formatting tweaks [02:56:42] Vary:Cookie [02:57:40] flyingparchment: So basically I can just check for the UserID cookie, and if it's not there, just display a cached version? [02:57:50] no, that's not what vary does [02:57:56] What does it do? [02:58:05] it caches a different version of each page for each value of the cookie header [02:58:08] (or set-cookie or whatever it is) [03:00:17] 03(NEW) Hard redirects to Special pages do not work, at least in English Wikipedia. - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18701 normal; Normal; Wikimedia: General/Unknown; (RSYQFIOJGWZA) [03:00:26] Oh I think I found an example of that for Varnish [03:03:25] how can i put last editor on the footer nav bar? [03:06:53] You'll have to edit the skin to manipulate the footer. [03:08:09] flyingparchment: so Vary:Cookie is really only to tell the *browser* that it can only cache the document with the certain set of cookies? [03:08:15] How do I do it on Varnish's side? [03:08:20] no, vary is an instruction to the proxy server [03:08:32] Splarka: r [03:08:34] you should talk to artur at wikia, he uses varnish with MW there [03:08:41] heh [03:08:55] So I do a header() in MediaWiki's config file or w/e, or is it a header I set inside of my varnish config file? [03:09:13] 03aaron * r50298 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/specialpages/RatingHistory_body.php: Don't show users in ratinghist page if less that two people [03:10:18] 2 years ago: wikia: "wow, servers are expensive" me: "What is Wikia's squid cache rate?" them: "Not good" me: *long rant about squid hits costing like 1/1000th the price of apache hits* them: "Okay, we'll look into it" ... them: "wow, damn advertisement cookies, we only get a small fraction of squid HITS" [03:13:22] heh, the bad math I guessed at: > *squid hit: 0.000003 cents > *apache hit: 0.000111 cents [03:13:47] (using WMF's 2007 number and type of servers, annual hardware budget, cache hit ratio) [03:14:56] My general thinking is "If I can afford a server on near-minimum-wage retail job, I'm sure WMF can" [03:17:40] *Splarka wonders what the hardware budget is of yahoo/google/youtube/live/facebook/msn compared to WM [03:18:57] they can afford to invest in datacenters because they have advertising dollars coming in [03:19:17] Which is why Wikipedia should have ads [03:19:51] *nakon ducks [03:21:09] hi,how can i include a category page in a template [03:21:11] Feh, servers really aren't as expensive as people make them out to be. [03:21:38] flyingparchment: I can't see anything about X-Vary-Options in the wikia Varnish config file [03:21:45] In fact, they actually just unset it [03:22:08] pfruan: Pages can be transcluded with {{ }} in the code. For example {{Template:ProtectedPage}} is one I transclude a few times on my wiki :-) [03:22:49] let me have a look [03:30:38] Pathoschild: ping per http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Magic_words&diff=253796&oldid=253395 [03:32:17] http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki?view=rev&revision=49575 creates parserfunctions for many of the revision* parserfunctions, and "{{REVISIONID}}{{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}}{{REVISIONUSER}}" are marked as "expensive"... any idea how to convey such information without '''[expensive]''' or the background color? (since the variable itself is not expensive) [03:33:55] Splarka: Put the usage description on two lines? ie, "Returns foo about page.
[expensive] returns foo about the specified page." [03:34:50] Although the distinction between 'variables' and 'parserfunctions' on that page is less and less meaningful. [03:34:59] hmm, and do that for all the variables that are also parserfunctions? [03:35:01] heh [03:35:05] indeed [03:36:43] Maybe just mention once that all variables/parserfunctions that reference a different page are expensive, unless otherwise noted? [03:37:05] Is $parser->getOptions()->getIsSectionPreview() a core MediaWiki functionality, or is it offered by an extension? [03:37:29] Pathoschild: that is a bit missable though, the point is explicitization [03:37:55] (also, they might be reverted before scap... heh) [03:38:03] I guess we'd need to repeat [expensive] everywhere, or add an expensive (yes / no) column. [03:38:36] The reason I ask is because cite.php uses it, and apparently it doesn't exist. [03:38:56] oh, nm, it is just 'fixme' due to code duplication [03:39:44] Or add a separate section for magic word properties, and link to it from the relevant sections ("Some magic words below are [[#foo|expensive]]")? [03:39:46] hmm, odd, all the {{REVISION*}} Variables are PFs, but only those 3 are expensive [03:40:16] is day/day2/month/year cheap to get? [03:40:46] *Pathoschild grumbles about developers adding great features without considering how hard they are to document neatly. :p [03:41:01] oh, no, they shell out to revisiontimestamp() [03:41:18] heh, okay, so all spensive [03:41:55] and shouldn't {{PAGESIZE}} also be a non-expensive variable? heh [03:42:11] and be renamed to {{REVISIONSIZE}} [03:44:28] hi tim [03:45:37] hi [03:47:01] 03aaron * r50299 10/trunk/ (971 files in 970 dirs): ignore startprofiler.php [03:47:10] Pathoschild: http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Magic_words&diff=253814&oldid=253796 [03:47:31] a background color would be annoying, making it two separate would be ugly [03:48:04] Looks good. [03:48:40] and probably should ditch that red background color [03:48:51] er, or pinkish-orange [03:50:59] crikey [03:51:13] did he just set the svn:ignore property on every directory in the repository? [03:52:52] "Oops"? [03:55:27] Pathoschild: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Technical_metadata ick [03:56:51] yknow, actually, it probably wouldn't even matter just marking the variables as expesive, who is gonna use the revision magic words as variables a few hundred times on a single page? heh [03:56:58] ^expensive [03:58:14] I'm sure someone will do it; Wikipedia:Huge_table_of_huge_Wikipedia_pages, or some such. [03:59:06] I mean as a variable, who wants to see the REVISIONTIMESTAMP for a single page more than once [03:59:29] *Splarka realizes after saying that that /someone/ would... [03:59:54] They might want to see the date of last edit of a whole table of pages in a sortable table. :) [04:01:17] yes yes, and those would be expensive [04:01:18] Someone could, conceivably, add the last edit date of the pages to their Special:AllPages [04:01:42] {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}} as a variable, applying only to a /single/ page, that being the page you are on, is not expensive [04:02:09] And then you factor in ParserFunctions, like "{{#ifexpr:{{REVISIONTIMESTAMP:foobar}}<{{#time:YmdHis|-2 weeks}}|{{REVISIONTIMESTAMP:foobar}}|{{REVISIONTIMESTAMP:foobar}}}}. ;) [04:02:24] Pathoschild: {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}}, not {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP:}} [04:02:29] is what I am talking about [04:02:53] That's not expensive, though, so does it matter? [04:02:55] for simplicity sake we could just treat it as expensive, it only would ever get used as a variable once on a page [04:03:13] Pathoschild: for accuracy in documentation it is annoying [04:03:26] Or just mention it once in a little pinkish-orange box at the top of the section. [04:03:51] "note: this is not expensive when used as a variable" ? [04:04:17] "Note: the following magic words are expensive when you specify a page." [04:05:27] how to put last editor of a page in the bottom nav bar [04:05:28] ahh [04:05:31] well, do that then [04:05:51] pfruan: squish them a lot, it'll hurt [04:06:23] hurt what [04:06:31] I have a stupid question, but the manual is unhelpful. [04:06:46] How do I add a link to the "Toolbox" [04:06:55] pfruan: It will hurt the editors you're stuffing into the bottom nav bar. [04:07:10] Specifically, I want to add a link something like "Purge cache" to purge the server cache of the current page. [04:07:37] why,but i hope they would be glad to see their name [04:08:32] yeah,maybe hurt someone.but how can i hurt them. [04:08:45] flyingparchment: Okay, I'm trying Squid now as it works better with MediaWiki [04:08:55] arrg [04:09:00] Are there any docs on how to make squid use the Vary headers? [04:09:25] https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18700 is definitely a dupe of something but while looking I found this: [04:10:04] 1269 Section editing link pointing to wrong section. -DUP-> 966 section edit links have problems with HTML header markup -DUP-> 2128 even 1.5 gets confused on section editing when sections are involved -DUP-> 2607 Manual heading tags (

[07:43:04] the basic use of which would be: {{#if:{{{param|}}}| This variable is defined as {{{param|}}}| nothing }} [07:43:26] if you want even more basic hiding, you can just use {{{param|}}} which will show nothing, but you can't control the outer text with it [07:44:40] ok Splarka let me read those pages [07:45:19] should ParserFunctions work for having an arbitrary number of parameters? [07:45:19] huh, that transliteration is odd - the latin side of it has stuff like ƣ [07:45:23] wtf is that? [07:45:33] (the thing I told you yesterday) [07:47:59] 03nikerabbit * r50302 10/trunk/phase3/maintenance/language/StatOutputs.php: * Same hack for transstat.php as in r50125 [07:48:03] ZioCorto: it can be made to [07:48:09] okok [07:48:22] with those pages i'm gonna rule the world [07:48:26] {{#if:{{{1|}}}|something using {{{1}}}|}} [07:48:29] since i'm admin and bureaucrat [07:48:34] {{#if:{{{2|}}}|something using {{{2}}}|}} [07:48:35] etc [07:48:44] up to about 150 is the useful limit, IIRC [07:49:18] if you wanna get freaky deaky there are some loop templates, but we don't advise using them on public wikis: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Parser_function_extensions [07:54:20] I have a problem where after importing pages into a fresh wiki via xml dump import, the browser tries to download index.php when I click on the edit tab. [07:55:26] I think think that this coincides with updating the links table somehow. [07:56:47] Has anyone seen something similar? [07:57:59] do you have a link? [07:59:17] what do you mean? [07:59:28] it it a public wiki? [08:00:21] well, not really but I can give you an account and link if you want to take a look [08:00:41] not really [08:00:48] does it happen when you are not logged in? [08:01:01] umm... let me check [08:01:22] I have to change user permissions [08:04:16] yes, when logged out, I have the same problem [08:05:02] so let's see, it only happens when trying to edit, and it would let you download index.php with what inside? [08:06:29] index.php is a blank file [08:07:37] any errors in error log? [08:09:13] no [08:09:27] any errors in the log are from over an hour ago [08:12:20] makes it kind of hard to pin-point them [08:12:51] do you have some software you can use to capture the http headers? is the response code 200 or something else? [08:13:17] what would I use? [08:14:47] firefox has nice extension for that [08:15:19] I found it, I think [08:17:08] hi.when in a template,there are a big block changeable content. [08:17:23] how can the caller pass argument value to it [08:18:11] pfruan: have you read http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Templates ? [08:20:01] I installed 'Live HTTP headers' plugin. What am I looking for? [08:20:31] 03j * r50303 10/trunk/extensions/MetavidWiki/skins/mv_embed/libEmbedVideo/mv_nativeEmbed.js: remove newline that would result in ; and thus the if statement did nothing [08:20:49] the headers [08:21:12] Keep-Alive: 300, HTTP/1.x 200 OK, [08:21:43] no luck in that [08:22:01] Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 [08:22:03] can you paste all headers for the edit request somewhere (not on this channel) [08:23:07] http://pastebin.ca/1415128 [08:25:09] the only response is HTTP/1.x 200 OK ? [08:26:07] yes [08:27:15] sounds like a problem at the server or php level [08:27:21] is your memory limit high enough? [08:27:55] I have several other wikis installed on this same server without experiencing this problem on any of the others. [08:28:34] I'm running out of ideas [08:28:43] The problem doesn't appear until after I import xml dumps [08:29:33] when I run rebuildall.php I find that the problem appears pretty quickly. [08:30:23] appears after/during running the script? [08:31:46] yes [08:32:45] that was a/b not yes/no question :) [08:33:03] lol [08:33:05] during [08:33:12] Splarka: i've got it working [08:33:44] although, if it doesn't appear during, it often appears after [08:34:29] *always appears after [08:35:13] ZioCorto: good, now stump us with something hard [08:35:21] Splarka: any ideas? [08:36:06] hmmm [08:36:28] mvatki: what is the content type of the file it asks you to download? [08:37:24] according to the header I guess it's "text/html,application/xhtml+xml" [08:37:38] the file is totally blank, though [08:37:50] hmmmm [08:37:56] Content-Type: application/x-external-editor; charset=utf-8 [08:38:03] for an external edit, so that can't be the prob... [08:38:39] Nikerabbit: dunno, possibly bad apache/phpness? [08:39:25] (fyi, this is what an external edit looks like: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foobar?action=edit&externaledit=true ... very simlar) [08:40:01] that is similar [08:40:26] but the content-type is quite different, *shrug*, and it isn't blank [08:40:34] Splarka: don't worry, i've got something, but i don't have time now :D [08:41:19] brion (head dev)'s sig is: Play "stump the developers" live on IRC: #mediawiki on irc.freenode.net [08:42:21] do I win? [08:42:33] yep, you get a free year's subscription [08:42:51] that's exceptional [08:55:30] here it comes the question [08:55:38] i have to set up the mailer [08:55:51] but i can't have a mail server on the same server hosting mediawiki [08:55:54] :) [09:01:30] ZioCorto, don't you just need to change it in the PHP config? [09:01:50] !$wgSMTP [09:01:50] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "$wgsmtp". You might try: !smtp [09:01:59] Reedy: i can't install PEAR [09:02:04] !smtp [09:02:04] --mwbot-- See for information about configuring MediaWiki to use SMTP for sending mails, instead of using the sendmail interface. [09:02:06] ah [09:02:06] we already have a mail server [09:03:27] or maybe we have PEAR and i don't know [09:03:28] lol [09:03:49] phpinfo should tell you that? [09:04:06] i can't access to that server [09:04:22] i don't know neither the exactly address [09:04:30] lol [09:11:00] not working [09:11:01] uff [09:16:12] hmm maybe working [09:16:20] what is the difference between [09:16:29] $wgEmailConfirmToEdit [09:16:33] $wgEnableEmail [09:16:40] and $wgEnableUserEmail [09:16:41] ? [09:17:00] Confirm to edit would presumably be the user has to click a link in a confirmation email after signing up to be allowed to edit [09:17:13] UserEmail would be allowing users to send each other messages [09:17:21] and enable email enables all email comms? [09:23:04] hmm [09:23:13] it seems working but email is not coming [09:23:23] it doesn't give me mailer error but email is not coming [09:23:25] :D [09:30:49] 03ialex * r50304 10/trunk/phase3/t/inc/IP.t: only 1010 tests, not 1120 [09:32:19] Warning: UserMailer::require_once(Mail.php) [usermailer.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mediawiki/mediawiki-1.13.2ITA/includes/UserMailer.php on line 114 Fatal error: UserMailer::require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'Mail.php' (include_path='/home/mediawiki/mediawiki-1.13.2ITA:/home/mediawiki/med [09:32:25] ?_____________?

[13:25:33] impossible to answer without knowing what the question is [13:25:39] better just to ask the question [13:26:01] and not by private messaging me. ask here [13:26:17] I am stuck with installing MediaWiki... [13:26:38] I got WikiMedia installed, but some errors have occured. [13:27:00] When I try to run the Main page, I get the following message: "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /www/uuuq.com/c/o/n/conrawiki/htdocs/Conra Wiki/includes/db/Database.php on line 1132". [13:27:46] Is there anyone here that has installed MediaWiki and could help me? [13:28:08] which version of php and which version of mediawiki are you running ? [13:28:24] Let me check quickly... [13:29:03] MediaWiki 1.14.0... [13:29:16] And I'm not sure which PHP version...I'm using Zymic to host. [13:29:42] sounds like the file is broken [13:30:11] What happened was I had an error that said something to do with the string, then some person told me to take that string out... [13:30:18] I did, and now I'm stuck with that... [13:30:23] you edited that file ? [13:30:33] This is the site: http://conrawiki.uuuq.com/Conra%20Wiki/index.php [13:30:38] Yes. [13:31:00] Because I was told to place "@" in front of the ini scripts [13:31:03] you might have thought to mention that when you asked :-) so you have broken something. there should be no need to edit that file [13:31:07] Because it gave me the ini something error. [13:31:15] Ahhh. [13:31:31] But they said i should do that. Gah, I should have come here. ;( [13:31:45] Why go to a website that is not affiliated with MediaWiki. :P [13:31:52] So what do you suggest? [13:32:13] restore the original version of that file [13:32:13] I tried deleting the file (database.php) but it won't let me delete it... [13:32:24] I wanted to delete it and upload the one I have on my desktop.

[13:35:19] Deadmano: Normally you shouldn't get an error and you shouldn't fix it by hacking the file, but yes, a @ in front of the error causing line often helps (because it supresses the error so it isn't shown up) [13:35:35] In the overwhelming majority of cases, you want to fix the error, not add @ (which just shuts up the error reporting). [13:35:55] I didn't know I was "hacking"... [13:36:07] I was told to do so to solve the problem by the Zymic support team. [13:36:25] s/solves/bypasses the issue [13:36:27] Could any of you offer any advice as to what I should do now? [13:36:54] "File "Database.php" can't be deleted" [13:37:00] I can't remove the damage file...;( [13:37:10] What's trying to delete Database.php? [13:37:14] I installed MediaWIki already, did the whole thing and registered. [13:37:14] What's the full path to it? [13:37:16] you probably need to rechmod it so you have rights [13:37:16] I am. [13:37:28] To try and replace the file with the original unscathed file. [13:37:36] I will try that. [13:37:39] How are you trying to delete it? [13:37:50] Over FTP should work, in a typical hosting setup. [13:38:01] I am trying to delete via Filemanager. [13:38:14] as in CPanel File Manager? [13:38:26] Something like that. [13:39:10] So should I use a FTP and try delete that file? [13:39:24] 0.o @ Bug 16022#c2 [13:44:15] Ok, I've used the FTP to delete the file, and now I am uploading the original file. Hopefully it will work. [13:45:37] Now i get the Redirect Loop error... [13:45:53] The original file is restored [13:46:24] When I told the guys at Zymic about this Redirect Loop, they told me to delete the string I mentioned...Is there a way to fix this now?

[13:52:31] 03(FIXED) Special:Book using nonexistent system message - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18706 +comment (10support) [13:52:40] Ok, what happened was I started changing all the fiels to have the "@" in front of the ini lines... [13:52:56] Then when i get to the Database.php file, I get the Redirect Loop. [13:53:09] Would you be as kind as to point me out in the right direction? [13:53:14] Don't do that. That's completely broken and ridiculous. Don't use @ unless you really know what you're doing. [13:53:32] . . . hmm. [13:53:39] Either that, or your hosting is broken. [13:53:49] I guess I didn't know what I was doing and I won't be listening to 3rd party sites again. I just want a functional wiki. [13:53:59] As a general rule, do not modify any file other than LocalSettings.php unless you're absolutely certain you know what you're doing. [13:54:12] If you've modified any such files, reupload the original ones. [13:54:18] How would I go about doing a refresh? [13:54:25] How did you install in the first place? [13:54:29] Ok, so U just have to re-upload the files I edited? [13:54:35] Yes. [13:54:49] That will overwrite the changes and restore the correct versions. [13:54:50] I extracted the Files to a folder on my desktop, then uploaded that folder with the fiels ot my account using an FTP. [13:54:56] So do that again. [13:55:02] Everything? [13:55:13] Unless you're sure you can remember exactly what files you touched. [13:55:16] If so, only reupload those. [13:55:24] If you still have problems after doing that, say them here and someone will probably be able to give you correct help. [13:55:29] Ok. And what can I do to fix the errors witht he ini? [13:55:39] Ok then. I will fix the files first. [13:55:41] I suspect your host has given you some trash like safe mode, in which case the best you can do is shut them up. [13:55:56] But if you told me the exact errors, I could tell you more. [13:56:17] Can you suggest a better free hosting site? [13:57:08] if you just want a wiki, why not something like wikia ? [13:57:10] http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Wikia [13:57:33] Free hosting sites are generally terrible. You can get okay shared hosting for like $4/month. [13:57:45] I would prefer a private Wiki though. [13:57:49] I have looked into Wikia. [13:57:52] A more managed solution like Wikia is also worth considering, if it fits your needs. [13:58:05] Since I can't remember exactly which files I edited, should I just start over? [13:58:31] if you have lots of "criteria" on what you want etc. like private, it needs to do this and that, you are going to have to pay for your hosting [13:58:32] I still have the Database and my User account on MySQL, will MediaWiki allow me to pick the same Wiki Name? [13:58:52] Just leave the LocalSettings.php where it is and you won't have to reinstall. [13:59:05] Zymic seems fine. It was working up to a certain point before I went around the files editing blindly. [13:59:21] Ok, so i will remove all files except the LocalSettings.php? [13:59:43] Just overwrite them, don't delete them. [13:59:52] Reupload and it should ask you if you want to overwrite the existing files. Say yes. [14:01:12] To all 1000 files? Or is there a "Yes to All" function? [14:02:12] Usually there should be a "Yes to all". [14:02:21] If there's not, try another FTP client, or just delete the files and reinstall from scratch. [14:02:33] Ok, I will just make sure I make a copy of the LocalSettings.php In case I over-write that. [14:03:59] Ok, the upload has begun.

[15:03:41] is there an easy way to duplicate the Did-You-Know bits used on wikipedia? [15:03:58] the templates are protected, and so exporting them is a PITA [15:04:25] ....how would edit protection hamper exportation? [15:05:13] Splarka: not sure, but when I try to export the DYN bits, the templates don't seem to come over. [15:05:26] example? [15:07:31] could be I'm just an idiot. If I go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export and try to export Template:Did_you_know [15:07:49] it doesn't appear to work or include linked templates, despite what I checked. [15:08:29] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export/Template:Did_you_know [15:08:33] does this work for ya? [15:10:22] Splarka: it does, but it's just that template. That template includes about 15 other templates. which aren't in that file, and some of those require their own templates. [15:10:37] one thing at a time [15:10:59] right. I was looking for a simpler way, or one page to grab, which pulls them all in. [15:11:01] that doesn't "doesn't appear to work" right? [15:11:51] Splarka: because the 'Include Templates' only grabs that template. not the other templates it links to or includes. [15:11:59] that's my only reason for saying it doesn't work right. [15:11:59] *sigh* [15:12:05] /one/ thing at a time [15:12:42] I get that, but if a data page is exported, it pulls all the templates it uses. [15:12:46] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export/Template:Did_you_know is not meant to include templates, or all revisions, or save as file, it just is a dumb dump, but you agree that that /does/ work, right? [15:12:49] so why doesn't it do similar with a template page? [15:13:04] yes. it does work, for one thing at a time. [15:13:16] it doesn't appear to work or include linked templates [15:13:29] so is that what you were referring to not working, and it does work for you in some cases? [15:13:34] or were you referring to something different? [15:13:41] Splarka: fine I retract that part. lets deal with the including linked templates [15:13:42] (ignore the 'or' for now) [15:13:45] k [15:13:45] like data pages do. [15:13:57] I am just confused by that 'or', because it indicates two broken things [15:13:58] anyway [15:14:10] I misspoke that part, you are correct. [15:14:16] heh [15:14:37] if I export a template, I only get that template. not the templates it includes. This behavior differs from exporting a data page.

[18:16:03] Hi, we use MediaWiki as an internal wiki and I wanted to prevent non-logged-in users from accesing the images directory so I went the cgi_img_auth.php with mod_rewrite route described on Manual:Image_Authorization. However, now some images we use for navigation are not cached by the client it seems (they continually reload and it's quite slower too). Watching the HTTP headers fly by it seems there may be some issues introduced with rewriting and the [18:16:05] content type that is returned by img_auth. Any suggestions for what I should do? [18:17:11] <^demon> Huib: In your LocalSettings, set $wgCheckUserLog to the full path to your log file. The default is "/home/wikipedia/logs/checkuser.log" [18:17:24] <^demon> (Which obviously doesn't exist on your system :) [18:17:28] lol [18:18:27] 03(FIXED) Create "Tags" component in MediaWiki product in Bugzilla - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18671 +comment (10brion) [18:20:09] ^demon: stupid quistion maybe.. But must I create a log myself? Because it isn't iin the .zip of the extension [18:20:36] Hmm actually wait a second this may be caused because I'm using clickpic with the original /w/images URL, if there's no rewriting it might actually work... [18:22:47] <^demon> Huib: Not sure. It might make the file automatically? If it doesn't, it shouldn't be hard to make an empty file. [18:23:36] Alright, look like preventing the URL from being rewritten and directly using /w/cgi_img_auth.php/$image instead works fine. Obviously doesn't solve the problem but good enough for now.

[19:00:50] AerosAtar: okay, how about: /planehopping/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&action=edit ?

[19:01:44] perfectly valid URL, WFM fine [19:01:52] Splarka>Yeah, that works. I can edit it fine, it just doesn't do anything :-/ [19:02:07] *Splarka pm AerosAtar [19:02:58] Yeah, it's a fine URL. It was just breaking shit. [19:03:03] All better now, though. [19:03:14] Splarka: thanks for the link to $wgCapitalLinks . it seems like a setting that would be changed when a wiki is first being installed, but not after a wiki's been populated with articles [19:03:39] well, you could do it [19:03:48] but you'd probably want to migrate the hell out of it [19:03:55] yeah [19:03:59] find any category links, template links, links, etc, and make sure they match case [19:04:07] Flipping CapitalLinks mid-wiki is really nasty. [19:04:20] the primary show-stopper is the fact that the cleaup script forces all articles to lowercase [19:04:52] so "Billing and Sales" would become "billing and Sales"...or "billing and sales" [19:05:15] The former, I think. [19:05:19] It's nasty. [19:05:28] very [19:06:13] how many revisions and pages (all ns) in the DB? [19:06:56] Splarka: how can i determine that? i haven't poked around the DB much [19:07:08] Do you have command-line access to MySQL? [19:07:13] yup [19:07:21] SELECT COUNT(*) FROM page; [19:07:25] oh, hah [19:07:26] SELECT COUNT(*) FROM revision; [19:07:27] too easy [19:07:29] erm [19:07:29] ;-) [19:07:39] *Splarka Stabs MaryBelle [19:07:40] Or you can just look at the IDs in the URLs. [19:07:43] no, don't do that nick_h[litage] [19:07:49] go to Special:Statistics [19:07:55] Oh, hah. That too. [19:08:10] all pages, all edits [19:08:11] it'd be useful to highlight $wgCapitalLinks in whatever "getting started" article(s) there are, so that newbies can choose from the beginning, rather than learning about it later on [19:08:12] Special:Statistics is useless per-namespace, though. [19:08:31] Marybelle: how silly of me, yes, I totally forgot [19:08:31] *Nikerabbit dies [19:08:40] http://mail2web.com/wiki/articles/Special:Statistics [19:08:41] oh no, wait, I asked for ALL pages [19:08:54] *Marybelle throws a lawn chair at Splarka. [19:08:56] total=517;good=286;views=8787;edits=1197;users=14;activeusers=8;admins=14;images=195;jobs=0 [19:09:03] 517 pages, that is microscopic [19:09:07] you could fix it in a day [19:09:13] hah i know it's small [19:09:17] Heh. [19:09:17] but it's still a fair bit of work [19:09:23] Yeah, it's about link count. [19:09:29] hmm [19:09:29] And templates. [19:09:35] And categories. [19:09:37] And other things. [19:09:51] worst case, 517 pages to edit [19:10:05] That's a lot. [19:10:06] probably easier than writing a maintenance script to do it for you [19:10:19] *AerosAtar wishes there was a way to remove all capitalisation dependence in links (This_Page == ThIs_PaGe), but oh well [19:10:49] AerosAtar: you aren't the first or the last to ask that [19:10:50] Splarka: there's already one written: [19:10:59] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:CleanupCaps.php [19:10:59] and IIRC there was a failed branch to do that [19:11:12] nick_h[litage] to do it /properly/ for you, then [19:11:15] ah [19:11:16] =P [19:11:26] Splarka>Thanks for helping me figure out what was causing the problem, and I've checked. My HNP is still working :) [19:11:56] AerosAtar: enjoy, and stab the extension author [19:12:50] http://toolserver.org/~mzmcbride/cgi-bin/mw-logs.py?search=\(\(thank\|thx\).*\(Spla\|spar\)\|\(Spla\|spar\).*\(thank\|thx\)\) [19:13:21] I see a strange gap in there for some reason after ...

[19:14:23] oh, you mean vertical space on the html? I don't see it [19:14:43] 'gap' when looking at logs is usually not interpreted as 'css spacing' [19:14:48] mmm, pedantry [19:15:08] is there a list of MW directories that should be writable by the web server?

[19:17:25] It's mostly me thanking others, though. [19:17:34] oh, there is some unicode in the next line there [19:17:52] Is there? [19:17:58] see if this has a gap in the logs between this line and my next one, both of which will contain flibble [19:18:01] flibbleflibble [19:18:16] http://toolserver.org/~mzmcbride/cgi-bin/mw-logs.py?search=flibble [19:18:25] Huh.

[20:10:20] 	Oh sure, Ryan_Lane, use cheats.

[20:19:03] 	some hacking and you got something ugly
[20:19:09] 	is there a setting to ignore capital letters for sortation in categories? i hate AZ being befor Aa
[20:19:30] 	Really?
[20:19:34] 	I love that.
[20:19:41] 	It's like Unicode value sorting.
[20:19:45] 	My ls command does that too.
[20:19:54] 	It's like living in the 80s.
[20:20:09] 	just query all the databases and join them... then there is the question of fixing the links
[20:20:53] 	svip: we blame mysql for (not) sorting
[20:21:13] 	Oh, Subfader.
[20:21:18] 	Here is your solution:  Fix MySQL.
[20:21:22] 	heh
[20:21:32] 	You know, a lot of people will thank you.
[20:21:33] 	or always use ucfirst or lcfirst in category sortkeys
[20:21:47] 	so it just uses plain mysql ouput again like on ugly search result ranking? ;)
[20:22:17] 	Subfader: did you alter $wgCapitalLinks ?
[20:22:36] 	yes but the AZ before Aa is default no?
[20:23:02] 	$wgCapitalLinks = false;
[20:23:14] 	heh, then you're screwed
[20:23:51] 	i like $wgCapitalLinks=false ;)
[20:24:52] 	I mean, you could change all [[Category]] calls to something like: {{Category|Cats}} which contains: [[Category:{{{1}}}|{{ucfirst:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}]]
[20:25:09] 	..er...or rather {{PAGENAME}} to omit namespace
[20:25:57] 	for find something in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks#Page_Rendering that will let you modify all category calls during save, and write an extension to do that
[20:26:05] 	^for -> or
[20:26:45] 	it just bugs me for the sortation of subcategories 
[20:27:18] 	all my articles start with numbers, the other pages are not categorizes
[20:27:23] 	d
[20:28:22] 	not too bad then....
[20:28:47] 	create Template:Subcat as some wikis do, with content: [[Category:{{{1}}}|{{ucfirst:{{PAGENAME}}}}]]

[21:49:25] 	right
[21:50:08] 	:s Maybe I should have went with underscores.
[21:50:15] 	Is it possible to rename a MySQL database?
[21:51:36] 	create another database, then rename tables
[21:51:54] 	rename table xx.a to yy.a, xx.b to yy.b, ...
[21:52:01] 	a simple shell script can construct you atomic statement :)
[21:52:47] 	Guides suggest I shut down mysqld and move the dir where they are stored.
[21:56:03] 	your guides suck
[21:56:09] 	but you can trust guides and ignore me
[21:56:40] 	Why does my guides suck? :(!  It worked.
[21:56:46] 	And I didn't have to write a script.
[21:58:14] 	well, as I told you, you can always refer to your guides and ignore me :)
[21:58:20] 	eventually that will lead you to complete data loss
[21:58:33] 	:(
[21:58:52] 	see, by default mediawiki creates tables as innodb
[21:59:01] 	and right now it worked only because you have innodb disabled
[21:59:11] 	you'd have data dictionary mismatch otherwise :)
[22:00:12] 	do you believe me now, that your guides suck? :)
[22:00:13] 	Oh.
[22:00:16] 	Yeah.
[22:00:24] 	'Cause it just happened to our newer wikis.
[22:00:31] 	haha
[22:00:32] 	Lucky not to our old wiki, which runs on MyISAM.
[22:00:44] 	<_< Which is the one that contains all the data anyway.
[22:00:56] 	Only an hour of work lost.
[22:01:03] 	you can rename back :)
[22:01:32] 	Hm.  But now they are in a new position, right?
[22:01:48] 	you can move just innodb tables back too
[22:01:53] 	hehehe
[22:02:03] 	anyway
[22:02:04] 	have fun
[22:02:07] 	I'll go have some sleep
[22:02:10] 	been a busy day
[22:02:20] 	Interestingly, phpMyAdmin sees them.
[22:02:25] 	But lists them as "in use".
[22:03:36] 	you may put InnoDB table .frm files back
[22:03:39] 	because of simple reason
[22:03:43] 	those tables are still in ibdata
[22:03:46] 	just orphaned 
[22:05:05] 	Ugh.
[22:05:09] 	I'll look into this tomorrow.

[22:13:16] 	brion is too fast
[22:46:18] 	I've encountered a bug and was wondering whether or not it's been addressed. Basically, I have a main page Main, and some pages in the namespace Main/Sub/Page1, Main/Sub/Page2, etc, and on each of those main pages, [[Category:{{BASENAMEPAGE}}]] so that I can have a list of all these pages at Category:Main/Sub
[22:46:58] 	03straussd * r50325 10/civicrm/trunk/sites/all/modules/civimerge/civimerge.module: Forward port older merge logic
[22:47:25] 	Now, when I move Main to a new name, and tell it to move all subpages too, this works, but now Category:NewMain/Sub is blank. However, I can still access the other pages at NewMain/Sub/Page1 and if I save them without editing anything, then at this point, they show up at Category:NewMain/Sub
[22:48:10] 	Is updating category links done in the job queue?
[22:49:06] 	I mean I guess that's basically my question, the desired behavior is that after the move the category should be updated without having to "bump" the entry, I was wondering if this is an issue that's already been brought up and if not if there was a proper way to report it
[22:51:46] 	:(
[22:51:46] 	Fatal error: Call to undefined function wfProfileIn() in /Library/WebServer/Documents/trunk/includes/Setup.php on line 22

[23:45:54] 	is their a way to allow users to lock their own userpages?
[23:55:18] 	not by default luna6 but i think there's some extensions for such things
[23:56:10] 	thanks found a nice extension for this feature: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UserPageEditProtection
