[01:23:40] hi, curious if I found a bug in MediaWiki API or if I'm just misunderstanding something. Check out the result set here: https://es.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?redirects=&format=json&titles=Isak_Andic&gimlimit=max&generator=images&prop=imageinfo&continue=||&iistart=2011-02-28T15:51:42Z&action=query [01:24:06] there's a continue parameter, and yet if you follow it, the URL is unchanged and thus gives the same result set/continue param [01:25:00] I've got a bunch of other instances of the same "bug" causing major problems when I try to follow the continues [01:29:45] FWIW I opened https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T111886 to track this [01:57:53] c: Hi, just wondering, what are the unbans about? [01:58:02] just cleaning up [01:58:09] ah, ok. thanks [01:58:33] I'm not so sure about that envigado character, he apparently is supposed to be an infamous troll [01:59:54] it is covered by a global ban [02:00:03] ah, great. thanks :) [02:03:44] * c never understood by you use a nick with bot in it tbh [02:04:44] c: long story short, I was a little kid and my friends combined "Geoff" and "robot" [02:04:54] and i use it almost everywhere as a result [02:05:01] aha [02:05:09] also its basically never taken [02:05:29] have a nice day [04:32:02] I mostly notice the shouting. [04:32:27] "GEOFBOT" always looks like SHOUTING to me. [11:02:25] * kuldeepdhaka thow a subdomain on Niharika [11:02:48] * kuldeepdhaka throw a regx on nisha_ [11:03:36] * kuldeepdhaka throw a php script on santhosh [11:04:17] looks like lots of indian peoples, sayakb im out of stock [13:14:37] Hi, I am looking for some help setting up the mediawiki ldap authorisation plugin. [13:33:17] hellomrjack: not that i know anything about ldap, but please ask away. telling us what your problem is will help with getting answers [13:55:26] Daeghrefn, I literally just got it working. It was partly making sure selinux wasn't blocking anything + the pretty complex configuration required to connect to a Active Directory server [13:56:01] DanielK_WMDE_, oops replied to the wrong person, thanks for the offer of help :) [14:31:54] Greetings and salutations! I've found myself in a bit of a pickle. My old image sync solution is beginning to crumble, rapidly. I'm working on an alternative but I'd like to know what I'm doing before implementing it. So as a stopgap I need to execute a console command on the file itself as well as any possible thumbnails it would generate. [14:32:06] Is there any way I can achieve this safely? [14:33:58] oh -- mutante, that string you gave me yesterday that saved the day had a cipher my client insisted I remove, dunno if they're paranoid or have a point, but DES-CBC3-SHA is apparently "a weak and vulnerable cipher. Also I'm a huge fop." [14:34:16] That's what the client said. well, at least the first part. That second bit was implied [15:20:01] $wgLogo = false; doesn't "hide" logo, i still see msg about to configure $wgLogo in browser [15:20:13] bug or works as design? [15:33:40] Why not replace it with emptry gif ? [15:35:43] that's a solution but i asked if this is expected behaviour because in O'Reilly MediaWiki book 'false' value should suppress this message [15:46:40] Does the o'reilly book talk a lot about mediawiki globals? [15:48:45] Oh, the book's six years old. Nevermind xD [15:50:06] 6 years is a bit... [15:50:15] hey, marktraceur, you busy? I need someone to tell me adding this extension won't explode my website https://dpaste.de/z6Zm [15:52:03] Ulfr_: Not to make any guarantees, but I'll take a look at it [15:52:31] thanks man. It's like, five lines. But it's dealing with exec so I'm feeling a little paranoid [15:53:32] Ulfr_: I assume you're running this on an ec2 instance? [15:53:41] Or... [15:53:46] No, you got it [15:53:46] Wait, what is s3cmd? [15:53:50] Oh, okay. [15:54:01] I actually have trouble defining it, really [15:54:01] I don't see anything obviously bad [15:54:09] As far as I can tell it's just storing the image in s3 [15:54:14] it's just a place I poke when I want to pay .002 cents per gig of storage [15:54:27] Or maybe just setting the permissions so anyone can fetch it [15:54:33] no, it's just applying the public permission to the image. For whatever reason that has to happen all of a sudden [15:54:37] Right. [15:54:42] and I'm getting tired of constantly running it xD [15:55:13] there's no user inputs, so I can't see a point of failure. Just seems so wrong having an exec script on production systems [15:55:15] * Ulfr_ shudders [15:55:32] Maybe s3 has a library you can use somehow [15:55:39] ahahaha [15:55:41] hahahah [15:57:20] That's a very nice thing to think about, but it all kinda goes out the window. I'm uploading files through a dodgy service called s3fs, viewing them through cloudfront, and personally mucking with them through a glorified ftp browser [15:58:29] I'm going to move hosting off of that rat's nest and onto the swift stuff I was told about yesterday, just needed a quick and dirty patch so people stopped complaining xD [16:06:06] huzzah! Everyone can see abby now! http://static.wikidoc.org/5/52/Abbydoodle.JPG [16:19:07] Anyone know if there is a way to view docs for a particular version of mediawiki on doc.wikimedia.org? [17:55:05] i see shortlink from /mw/index.php?title= as /wiki/
(ex: /mw/index.php?title=Main_page as /wiki/Main_page) but when i goto login page (by clicking the "Log in" link [for ex: on /wiki/Main_Page), it redirect me to /index.php?title=Special:UserLogin why? (also, /wiki/Special:UserLogin shows the same login page) [18:04:43] not just login, edit page and some other page links are like that.. mediawiki.org/wiki also showing same url design [18:41:48] Hallo. [18:42:34] IIRC, there's a way to subscribe to every Gerrit change according to some rules, for example if it includes changes to any *.rb files. [18:42:42] Where do I sugn up for that? [18:44:44] aharoni: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/Reviewers [18:45:00] mutante: grazie [19:26:59] I am trying to properly install PEAR to send a confirmation email when someone new registers on my wiki. But I get the following error:Warning: require_once(PEAR.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\gamepaduniverse.com\wiki.gamepaduniverse.com\w\PEAR\PEAR\Mail.php on line 46 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'PEAR.php' (include_path='C:\Inetpub\vhosts\gamepaduniverse.com [19:27:14] My phpinfo() can be found here:https://wiki.gamepaduniverse.com/phpinfo.php [19:27:29] I think it has to do with includepath [19:28:24] It's .;C:\cygwin64\usr\share\pear right now but I did a manual install within the mediawiki root via this guide:http://syrkos.com/blog/2013/04/12/manual-install-of-pear-mail-in-mediawiki/ [19:28:50] What do I need to do to correct this problem [19:28:53] Thanks! [19:30:04] If you have PEAR installed in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\gamepaduniverse.com\wiki.gamepaduniverse.com\w\PEAR, you should add that path to include_path [19:34:30] BTW I am using Windows Server 20121 [19:34:35] 2012* [19:39:27] Disregard [19:39:28] solved [19:41:58] Getting this error now:PadPedia could not send your confirmation mail. Please check your email address for invalid characters. Mailer returned: Failed to connect to smtp.mailgun.org:25 [SMTP: Failed to connect socket: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. (code: -1, response: )] [20:06:43] completely disregard. thanks for reading anyways [20:11:33] hello folks: when i click on the link in the confirmation I get the error: Confirm email address Invalid confirmation code. The code may have expired. [20:11:50] But on the email it says, "This confirmation code will expire at 20:10, 16 September 2015." [20:12:01] what gives? [20:12:41] notmeagain: known issue: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T102927 resend the confirmation email from Special:Preferences and it should work [20:13:54] Vulpix:will upgrading to 1.25.2 fix this issue? [20:14:34] yes... I was wondering if that patch was merged on 1.25.2 and now I've confirmed that [20:17:04] Vulpix:thanks so much for your help! I honestly don't think I would have ever gotten my wiki in its current state if it had not been for you. [20:17:31] yw :) [20:17:32] I'll be upgrading [20:54:09] Vulpix, thank you (the other day) [20:58:43] yw :) [22:19:50] renoirb: bd808 just made me aware of your MediaWiki conversion work....very cool! [22:20:30] qgil: dynosaur: you two know about this? https://github.com/webplatform/mediawiki-conversion [22:22:05] renoirb: did you do this work to do your dayjob at W3C, or is it a hobby? [22:23:19] hi! [22:23:37] Day job. [22:24:08] renoirb: robla was my boss and is now the "Director of Architecture" for WMF [22:24:10] When my manager and I knew my contract at W3C wouldn't be renewed, I decided to take on this project. [22:24:22] I've worked on that for a month. [22:24:46] fascinating. I was just complementing W3C about meeting notetaking discipline just earlier today [22:24:58] I'm about to convert everything WebPlatform into static site generator so that the site stays up, and only a static site generator run... then rsync to maintain sites. [22:25:02] * robla know a lot of the W3C oldtimers [22:25:20] cool! [22:25:32] You know shepazu or Doug Schepers? [22:26:13] renoirb: I don't know *all* of them :-) "a lot" is intentionally ambiguous [22:26:20] :) [22:27:31] I was mainly dealing with multimedia stuff when I was doing W3C stuff. The WAI folks rightfully made a point of educating me about what they were doing :-) [22:31:40] They have no choice, its hard to grasp because not a lot of people in the world do what they do. [22:31:56] Except for people from ECMA and ISO, and the likes. [22:32:52] Judy Brewer's analogy about curb cutouts is really powerful. [22:33:40] in short, Judy makes the case that curb cutouts at intersections were originally accessibility mandated, but all sorts of people find them useful [22:34:29] I remember back in the day Judy and Ian were trying to convince RealNetworks to implement fast/slow playback, which I pushed back on as "too hard" [22:35:00] now, I insist on being able to listen to podcasts at 1.5x-2x speed :-) [22:35:44] Between Judy and Ian, I only worked once with Ian. [22:35:50] On webat25.org [22:36:04] (Ian == http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs/ ) [22:36:43] I even remember how to pronounce "Ian", which is a trick question in his case :-) [22:40:02] I have qgil swinging by my desk to chat....great talking to you renoirb! Please feel free to ping me whenever [22:40:16] yup! [22:40:34] thanks robla !
