[02:41:33] Hey there, I'm getting a script error (Lua error: Internal error: Error reading from pipe.) on most modules imported from Wikipedia (most infoboxes, main page links, quote names, etc). Scribunto is installed, and {{Infobox country}} is working, just not things like {{Infobox company}}. [03:51:46] hi there [03:51:51] anyone, i need some help [03:52:06] There is one image used in wikipedia and it is one my works [03:52:24] some else has posted this without acknowledging me [03:52:28] what should i do [03:52:31] ? [03:52:56] Hello, Zubair [03:52:58] Hi Zubair. Could you give us the image link? [03:53:15] * Riley|CVN hides away and lets Dereckson handle it [03:53:16] This will be a question for #wikimedia-commons or #wikipedia-en according the origin [03:53:45] If it is on the en.wikipedia.org, I recommend going to the channel #wikipedia-en-help [03:54:12] * Dereckson nods. [03:55:10] Or not [07:34:42] ://imanycgy [08:05:32] hi [08:05:41] any one to help me? [08:07:03] helloooo [11:32:30] I have a problem figuring out why Parser functions don't work on an upgraded mediawiki [11:33:16] As you can see here https://0x20.be/Main_Page, the parserfunction #ask is not being parsed, but just printed. [11:33:51] I installed the latest ParserFunctions plugin as you can see here: https://0x20.be/Special:Version [11:33:54] Noting, that's a Semantic parserfunction [13:25:07] when i save edit i get a blank page and the address bar still shows ...&action=submit. how do i get it to load (modified) page? [13:40:12] !blankpage [13:40:12] A blank page or HTTP 500 error usually indicates a fatal PHP error. For information on debugging (including viewing errors), see . [13:52:49] Reedy: In SemanticForms this config $GLOBALS['sfgFormPrinter'] = new StubObject( 'sfgFormPrinter', 'SFFormPrinter' ); is set in a callback. Would it be posible if i did something like this "sfgFormPrinter": "SFUtils::sfgFormPrinter" and then in the file that that static functions loads it would be like public static function sfgFormPrinter() { new StubObject( 'sfgFormPrinter', 'SFFormPrinter' ); } [14:34:08] Reedy: even if it did save the page? [14:34:50] Reedy: it looks like it just won't redirect back [14:44:38] !css [14:44:38] To change styles for your wiki, go to one of the MediaWiki:xxx.css wiki page (NOT a file) and put your custom styles there (sysop/admin rights required). MediaWiki:Common.css is for all skins and should be used for content styles. MediaWiki:Vector.css is for the Vector skin (default), etc. For more information, see !skins and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Interface/CSS [14:53:21] !version [14:53:21] To find out the version of your MediaWiki installation, visit the page Special:Version. Should the wiki be broken, but you have access to the program files, find $wgVersion in DefaultSettings.php. Please note that 1.15.0 > 1.5.0 (since nobody wants to go to 2.0). See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version_lifecycle for supported versions. [15:37:58] !restore [15:37:58] See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Backing_up_a_wiki for information about backing up your wiki. For restoring your wiki, see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Moving_a_wiki#Import_the_database_backup for more. If you don't have database access, try !grabber. [15:38:21] !grabber [15:38:21] See http://mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Grabbers for a way to export a wiki without necessarily having access to a database or database dump. If you have access, see !backup. [15:44:49] hi everyone, I need to understand working of mediawiki, Initially how to understand working of mediawiki, Is there any abstract explanation about working of mediawiki, [15:45:23] praveenraj: i guess you need to read the faq [15:45:28] !faq [15:45:28] Before reporting a problem or requesting assistance, please check the FAQ first. The FAQ for MediaWiki can be found at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ [15:46:08] thank you guys [15:50:09] praveenraj: FAQ is kind of useless for the internal workings, if that's what you mean [15:50:38] praveenraj: If you want to know under the hood stuff, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:MediaWiki_architecture is a good starting place [15:51:00] (If you just want to learn how use use MW, the Faq is good. See also https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Contents ) [15:51:32] And if you have specific questions, don't hesitate to ask [15:52:00] bawolff: thank you very much, this is what I exactly needed [15:52:34] praveenraj: The architecture document is very high level. You'll probably still have questions after reading it, but it might help you narrow down what the questions are [16:51:44] Right.... so I've just done a fresh install, but for some reason I can't log in due to cookies being disabled... in a browser with enabled cookies everywhere [16:51:52] anyone know what's up? [18:15:23] I don't understand why my mobile view takes so long to load each page. It shows the default theme and then adding the css changes at mediawiki:mobile.css but this takes a long time. Any ideas? [18:24:57] !mobile [18:25:14] !help [18:25:14] There are a lot of topics you could be asking about. Besides, this bot is mostly for experienced users to quickly answer common questions. Please just ask your question and wait patiently, as the best person to answer your question may be away for a few minutes or longer. If you're looking for help pages, we moved that to !helpfor. [18:27:13] !mobile [18:40:10] !localsettings [18:40:10] All configuration is done in LocalSettings.php (near the end of the file). Editing other files means modifying the software. Default settings are not in LocalSettings.php, you can look in DefaultSettings.php. See , , , and [18:58:58] You can see the problem while loading this page in mobile view here: https://wiki.gamepaduniverse.com/w/index.php?title=Gamepad_Universe_Platform&mobileaction=toggle_view_mobile [19:04:46] I just updated my MediaWiki 1.23 to 1.26. So far everything works great. The only thing that appears to make problem is GeSHi syntax highlighting. While there are no errors the highlighting doesn´t work. Also, the page(s) have been added to a category called ´Pages with syntax highlighting errors´. For example: http://wiki2.ugfx.org/index.php/BareMetal [19:04:54] any ideas? Sadly google didn´t help much on this one [19:06:48] csscharmer: are you sure? I tried loading the view, and it loaded in reasonable time. [19:15:03] csscharmer: you could also try updating your version of MobileFrontend, it looks a bit old [19:15:12] codezee: it shouldn't show the default skin at all [19:15:14] really? [19:15:23] I thought I was on the latest version [19:15:41] csscharmer: whats the version number? [19:16:54] i'll update it for safe measure now [19:39:54] Special:Undelete error https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T125339 [19:43:35] the actual title seems to point to Special:Translate, which obviously can't be deleted, maybe a translate bug... [19:45:19] it can't be *un*deleted. which yes, seems like a Translate bug. :) [19:56:24] is there any way to regenerate the LocalSettings.php file? [19:57:40] jkale, just run the install script again and update, think that makes one? [19:59:25] yes, it will generate one, but still you'll have lost any modification like custom namespaces, registered extensions and other settings, that you'll have to remember and set again [20:00:07] Vulpix: so is there a better way to regenerate it? [20:00:37] no, there's no other way [20:00:55] unless you have a backup, of course, which I'd say you haven't [20:03:05] Vulpix: any idea why it has to be such an irreversible kind of thing? is there something i don't know about how php works? [20:04:56] Vulpix: or is it a mediawiki security decision? [20:05:37] jkale: well, how did you lost that file in the first place? as everything, if you delete a file there's no reversible solution unless you have a backup or try to undelete it somehow from disk, etc [20:07:23] Vulpix: i don't know about your file recovery analogy, bit it looks like it can't be a big deal for mediawiki to make it downloadable again [20:08:34] jkale, it can't can it? You've deleted the very thing that tells it what to do! [20:08:58] jkale: it is, because that information is not stored in database, so there's no way to regenerate it for download [20:09:07] oh [20:09:16] i didn't know it wasn't in the database [20:18:13] codezee: I updated. Same result. [20:19:05] Can anyone else help me with my issue. Codezee is gone. [20:25:50] hi, i don't understand what's difference between 'translate' and contenttranslation' extensions... [20:26:19] my focus is a project for translating an archive of texts from one language to another [20:38:06] * Cookies52 just repeatedly reboots apache until it works [21:01:45] Hello there! I have found a bug in mediawiki 1.26.2 when opening a page with the module oojs-ui.styles.icons .. Example: http://wiki.vocaloid.de/load.php?action=purge?debug=true&modules=oojs-ui.styles.icons&* [21:02:12] nekura, configured it properly? [21:02:45] After taking a look into the error.log file created by nginx, I found the following error message: http://wiki.vocaloid.de/error.txt [21:04:24] Cookies52, I don't think this module can be configured. This module is used by the visualeditor extension, which does not work because of the module. I did not make any changes on the official distribution [21:05:26] hmmm [21:06:28] phabricator.wikimedia.org is the best place to post this [21:06:40] just pick a relevent project to file it under [21:06:52] (You'll need a mediawiki/ WMF wiki account) [21:08:36] Ok thanks, I post the information.. let's see [22:43:54] lol, this is ridiculously too fast in mplayer :) https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7b/Making_Multilingual_Wikis_a_Reality_-_Niklas_Laxstr%C3%B6m_and_Claus_Christensen.ogv
