[01:11:40] jjust ask your question [01:12:27] Getting this error when trying to view my page after adding the required code to the LocalSettings.php file: [01:12:50] Warning: require_once(PEAR.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/lordkayoss/lordkayoss.com/wiki/extensions/TimedMediaHandler/handlers/OggHandler/PEAR/File_Ogg/File/Ogg.php on line 123 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'PEAR.php' (include_path='/home/lordkayoss/lordkayoss.com/wiki/extensions/TimedMediaHandler/handlers/OggHandler/PEAR/File_Ogg:.:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/php5/lib [01:13:44] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TimedMediaHandler#Installation [01:14:23] you need to install pear [01:18:04] I'm a little confused how to do that. Pear isn't a typical extension is it? [01:18:33] RigganRose, err - first try not requirirng. PEAR.php in the first place [01:20:15] Just delete require_once('PEAR.php'); from the Ogg.php file? [01:20:55] damn, I'm being dumb [01:21:23] Dude, I'm fried right now lol. Been at this for too long today. [01:22:45] and my work day is theoretically over too [01:24:58] Is there anyone else who can assist? I'm so close. [01:25:14] yep, turns out you need pear [01:25:26] for not quite good reason [01:26:19] I've been reading some info about the timedmedia extension. It uses pear but doesn't come with any of the files, right? [01:27:32] I'm not sure which is the install instructions apply to me. I'm not using Ubuntu. [01:27:39] which of* [01:36:42] * MaxSem ragedeletes the dependence on PEAR [01:48:16] RigganRose, I went ahead and produced https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/216020 :P [01:48:25] legoktm should also like this ^^^ [01:50:06] doesn't work ATM but I will finish it [01:55:18] Cool. Do you have a rough idea of ETA? [01:58:06] not sure [01:58:23] gtg [02:46:13] Can anyone give me a detailed rundown on how to get Pear going (for TimedMediaHandler)? (Using Windows) [04:51:20] heyho. i want to make a glossary. but i don't understand how? i have user special:allpages, but i want something like A Articles with A... B Articles with B .... Can somebody help me? [04:53:30] is there a MW-on-windows IRC channel? [05:19:27] would anyone be able to help me figure out an installation issue? my wiki won't let people verify e-mails when they first make accounts and i don't know why [05:42:49] what do you configure morganmage? default is no verifying access? [06:09:14] heyho. i want to make a glossary. but i don't understand how? i have user special:allpages, but i want something like A Articles with A... B Articles with B .... Can somebody help me? [07:27:54] User::addToDatabase: hit a key conflict attempting to insert user '' row, but it was not present in select! [07:27:55] anyhow knows how to solve this error? [07:28:08] i was trying to do ldap auto auth , when i refresh it gives me this error~ [08:42:12] anyone knows how to make use of ldapautoauth.php ? i managed to allow users to login to mediawiki using their windows credentials. [08:42:36] but when i try to implement ldapautoauth.php, the domain become blank and states password keyed in is incorrect [11:02:57] hi [11:03:40] trying to run mediawiki 1.26 (from git repo) on debian wheezy. [11:03:46] MediaWiki 1.26 requires at least PHP version 5.3.3, you are using PHP 5.4.39-0+deb7u2. [11:03:51] is there any solution to this? [11:32:11] cy[], not sure yet why this happens: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T100497 [11:33:26] also https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/Message:_MediaWiki_1.25_requires_at_least_PHP_version_5.3.3,_you_are_using_PHP_5.4.24 [11:33:44] i installed the 1.25 and it worked [11:33:54] so im good. its an internal project, doesnt matter which vers,) [11:33:55] thx anyway [11:33:56] bb [11:40:18] heyho. i want to make a glossary. but i don't understand how? i have user special:allpages, but i want something like A Articles with A... B Articles with B .... Can somebody help me? [11:48:48] Dirk^^^: I guess you could use [[Special:PrefixIndex/A]] [11:51:27] ahhh cool! Is it possible to make it one below the other and not side by side? [13:14:25] hey how can i order special:prefixindex one below the other? [13:20:25] Dirk^^^^: it's not easy because the HTML is a table instead of a list [13:20:45] Dirk^^^^: you could add .mw-prefixindex-list-table td { display:block; width:99.9%; clear:both; } to your Mediawiki:common.css but it's a hack [13:22:35] ok [13:22:47] i think i don't do that. [13:23:13] alternativ? glossary extension? is there a compatible with the aktually mediawiki? [14:09:13] Hi all... i want to modify the main page of mediawiki ... how can i delete the words "Main Page"? Where i find it? [14:10:33] R7770: simply move the main page to the name you desire? [14:11:02] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ#How_do_I_change_which_page_is_the_main_page.3F [14:11:55] znx: sorry, i dont want to move it... i want to delete the words "Main Page" on the top of the page [14:12:27] It's a small bit of CSS... I don't remember where on MW.org it is, give me a moment. [14:14:05] R7770: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ#Method_1_.28css.29 [14:15:14] Lcawte: thankyou [14:34:06] Lcawte: that works!!! Thanku very much [14:39:31] I installed mediawiki on debian jessie 8.0 from repository... the version is 1.19 [14:40:33] i think it have/is a bug... i couldnt short the address, it doesnt work [14:41:10] https://wiki.debian.org/MediaWiki [14:41:27] do you have any idea to correct it? [14:51:34] Uh, 1.19? That's not even maintained anymore in upstream :-/ [14:51:56] R7770, I do hope that the Debian packagers backport security fixes if they still support 1.19 in their distro [17:24:36] Hi. My mediawik installation is not in English but Special pages still have English names, e.g. "Special:RecentChanges". How to fix that? [17:26:20] gleki: depending on the language,maybe that language is not fully translated yet [17:26:31] !twn [17:26:31] http://translatewiki.net [17:26:35] i see. [17:26:40] im a fool, sorry :/ [17:27:17] . [17:27:52] ยท [17:34:21] Vulpix: wait, but i cant find e.g. Special:Preferences there. it cant be changed/ [17:34:24] ? [17:35:29] gleki: message names can be revealed by using the qqx trick. See for example: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:SpecialPages?uselang=qqx [17:35:32] !qqx [17:35:32] If you want to find a particular system message being used on a page, you can append the uselang=qqx parameter to the URL. That will replace all system messages used on the page by their message names. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Qqx [17:35:55] The message name should be "preferences" [17:37:41] Vulpix: but i mean the url. how to find its name? [17:37:46] gleki: what language are you using? [17:38:18] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Preferences?uselang=qqx [17:38:53] Vulpix: Lojban. I was able to find this https://translatewiki.net/wiki/MediaWiki:Recentchanges-url/jbo but what about Special:Preferences ? [17:39:18] https://translatewiki.net/wiki/MediaWiki:Preferences/jbo [17:39:47] well, you translated it recently :) [17:39:58] But how to change "Special:" prefix in it? [17:40:38] ah, the namespace. twn uses a special page for that.. let me see if I remember... [17:41:27] MediaWiki:Recentchanges-url/en - here "Special:" is in the string itself [17:46:09] there was Special:AdvancedTranslate... but it's not working now :O [17:46:14] Nemo_bis: ping ^ [17:47:26] Vulpix: it's "expected" [17:47:49] there's an alternative? or gone indefinitely? [17:48:40] last I can find is https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Thread:Support/Special:AdvancedTranslate_no_longer_possible_again [17:49:22] see project:news [17:51:11] so it's gone for good [17:51:47] is it connected to "Special:"? [17:52:17] yes, it allowed to translate some messages that weren't "interface messages" [17:52:30] like namespaces, parser function names, etc [17:53:01] things that you can't change without wrecking havoc :) [17:54:57] So what to do now? Send a commit to Mediawiki repo itself? Btw, I dont have an account there. [17:57:09] you just need to register on wikitech.wikimedia.org, it's an open wiki [17:58:24] well, it makes sense that such changes need to go through code review, since they could have nasty side-effects [17:58:38] okay, registered on wikitech.wikimedia.org. Now what? [17:59:55] submit a patch to gerrit, see: [17:59:56] !start [17:59:56] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker [18:01:01] Vulpix: where to submit? should i study all those zillions of lines in order to add a translation of "Special:"? :) [18:01:59] well, I don't know neither where those special translations come from... What I would do is to find one of such namespaces and grep the code to find that string [18:03:27] it's under languages somewhere [18:09:24] gleki: languages/messages/Messages(yourlanguagecode).php [18:09:46] but apparently, it doesn't exist for JBO, you'll need to create it [18:27:39] Ich sollte meine Freundesliste mal wieder sortieren ... http://take.ms/YCswR [18:27:48] @Todesengelchen ich bitte um eine Runde Fisch [18:28:55] please don't open the link thegamer93 gave [18:29:15] oh [18:29:17] false channel [18:29:19] i am sorry [18:29:49] i wanted to rant about those idiots posting those things in my facebook timeline :) [18:29:58] but in an other channel [18:30:06] okay, looked like random spam [18:30:14] smh [21:05:51] hi, same problem here after upgrading from 1.19, do newer versions break the ability to have e.g. /Main_Page with mediawiki? http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/Upgraded_1.19_to_1.23,_Main_Page_not_found [21:15:23] becks`: no, you probably just lost a piece of your apache configuration [21:24:52] thedj I copied both the virtualhosts config and the .htaccess over to the new server where I upgraded to the latest release... it works when accessing like index.php?title=Main_Page, but getting a "Not Found" with /Main_Page [21:28:52] becks`: well then your shorturl config must still be broken for some reason. try reading the short url guide again. [21:36:26] Can someone provide a detailed walkthrough on how to get Pear installed and configured please (using Windows)? I really need to get TimedMediaHandler working. Any help would be appreciated. [21:39:28] RigganRose: the PEAR IRC support channel is #PEAR@EFNet [21:40:50] Thank you [22:08:07] is there an option for learning about how to convert extensions to this new registration system that is more involved than trusting an automated conversion tool, and therefore gaining no understanding of the process or changes involved? [22:08:25] as someone who maintains several custom extensions and a skin, this is a pretty big deal to me. [22:08:58] if I run the tool and it breaks my code, that doesn't leave me in a good position to fix it. [22:11:33] and it's code I need to still be able to modify later w/o breaking whatever new assumptions or restrictions this system puts on the way I write my php [22:18:47] ah crud gotta go; I'll be back ;) [22:20:11] argh [22:20:34] whenever they come back, please give them a link to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_registration [22:21:42] hi all [22:22:57] I need help about cookie law in EU [22:22:57] I am looking for an extention [22:29:06] I'm having a weird database error on postgres Special:ProtectedPages - http://pastebin.com/5ij2kWnx - any clue what is going on? [23:11:33] Hey, I would like to install mediawiki on my dedicated server running debian wheezy. According to the requirements I seem to be able to use version 1.25.1 from git for that. Unfortunately when running mediawiki, it gives me following message:"MediaWiki 1.25 requires at least PHP version 5.3.3, you are using PHP 5.4.39-0+deb7u2". So it complains about a version that is too high? [23:19:36] duelle: that seems to be https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T100497 [23:19:53] duelle: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/Message:_MediaWiki_1.25_requires_at_least_PHP_version_5.3.3,_you_are_using_PHP_5.4.24/reply_(7) has some help [23:23:05] duelle: the error message is confusing, you're likely missing the external dependencies [23:23:07] !composer [23:23:07] Composer is a dependency manager for PHP. MediaWiki uses it to include certain external libraries. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Composer for more details. For information on how to install MediaWiki dependencies with composer see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_Git#Fetch_external_libraries [23:23:14] duelle: ^ see the second link [23:24:41] sitic, yeah - that seems to be the issue - just with another version. Thanks legoktm - I will have a look. [23:31:06] Thanks again - adding the vendor-repo seems to have done the trick!
