[02:18:59] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Module:Version is failing now that there are two lts versions :( [02:20:30] apparently legoktm fixed it but it still displays 1.27 for lts (that's right but now it should display 1.23 until a new non-lts version is released) [02:21:31] the "problem" appears here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download [03:35:11] legoktm: I think I fixed the issue with Module:Version that Vulpix pointed out above -- https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Module:Version&oldid=2175631 [03:36:43] Now I wonder if https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download should show 1.27.0 as stable/LTS or something [09:09:40] Hi. I’m having a problem when trying to run mw_config on MW 1.27.0. I get a blank browser window and the following error in my apache log: PHP Fatal error: Class 'Wikimedia\\Assert\\Assert' not found in /var/www/Wiki_test/includes/Services/ServiceContainer.php on line 139. Any ideas? [09:10:50] The apache site setup is unchanged from when I was running 1.27 Alpha, so that shold not be the problem. [09:11:02] Have you run composer first? [09:11:45] I have not. Is that a new part of the installation? Never had to do that before and the installation instructions on the site do not mention this. [09:12:22] It's not very new... It's been necessary for a few versions now [09:12:46] its only needed on git installs [09:12:55] Well, that sucks [09:12:56] if you are running tarballs it should be fine [09:13:22] Benny_boy: How did you install MediaWiki? [09:13:35] So to be clear, extract the tar ball, run composer from the site's root dir, then run mw_config from a browser? [09:13:56] (at least, based on what i've read in here previously) [09:14:08] * Reedy has a look at the tarball [09:15:52] @Reedy I extracted the tarball and navigated to mw_config in Firefox. Same as I've always done. Last stable version I installed was 1.25, but 1.27 alph was OK too. [09:16:30] 1.25 required composer things [09:16:59] If you look at the MW folder, is there a vendor folder? [09:17:06] yup [09:17:12] under that, wikimedia, assert [09:17:17] yup [09:17:44] so the files are there, just sounds like not being loaded [09:17:53] sorry, no [09:17:58] no, they're not? [09:18:03] vendor/wikimedia/asset [09:18:18] assert not asset ;) [09:18:29] typo [09:18:44] vendor/wikimedia/assert [09:18:48] it's not there? [09:19:00] vendor/wikimedia/assert IS there [09:19:25] vendor/assert is NOT there [09:19:33] it shouldn't be [09:20:39] hmm [09:20:41] thats good then. :) I don't recall running Composer on 1.25 when first creating LocalSettings.php, but I'll give it a go no on 1.27.0 [09:20:56] no, you shouldn't need to [09:21:00] ah, OK [09:21:07] if you're running from the tarball, everything is packaged [09:21:17] Though, it's weird it worked for you on a 1.27 alpha [09:22:19] I'll double check my apache settings. I'm willing to bet its more my fault somehow. [09:28:08] it seems to be something in my setup [09:28:43] permissions [09:28:43] ? [09:29:35] if I restart apache I get errors on the old site (port 80), but the new installation works (port 81). If I restart again everything switches; old site works, new installation doesn'tload [09:30:40] it flip-flops with each restart of apache [09:30:48] odd [09:31:09] o_0 [09:32:31] Right... I'm off to see the Wizard; the Wonderful Wizard of Apache. Thanks for your help. Ben [12:57:10] morning [13:55:41] Hi ! I found that Git repo for mediawiki/user-functions has been moved, but packagist has not been updated, so composer is failing. [13:56:03] @toniher could you update it ? [13:57:14] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/EUFU/ [13:57:35] https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-UserFunctions [13:58:57] yes, but link in packagist is wrong : see here : https://packagist.org/packages/mediawiki/user-functions [15:32:17] If anybody is really bored, there are a ton of git.wikimedia.org references in Wikimedia projects -- https://github.com/search?p=2&q=org%3Awikimedia+%22git.wikimedia.org%22&type=Code [16:41:17] hello, does anybody knows why category page is not creating indexed list of pages? [16:42:54] All i have is: "This category currently contains no pages or media." even though I've added [[Category:Category]] tag to the page [17:20:18] Hey, I can't make my installation of medaiwiki work with nginx. [17:20:26] I think it's 1.21.1 [17:21:41] That's a really old version, that isn't supported [17:21:55] I'm not sure there'd be much difference in the terms of web server support in newer MW [17:27:08] https://wiki.kag2d.com/index.php/Main_Page [17:27:14] This is the furthest I got. [17:27:22] Content doesn't load. [17:29:26] Furai: ooh, i know that bug. it's specific to running MW 1.21 on new-ish PHP. [17:29:44] let me find it… [17:30:55] Furai: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T60640 you should update to at least 1.21.9, or ideally some newer version [17:31:18] Hmm [17:31:26] Can I upedate in this broken state? [17:31:29] yeah [17:31:32] that's not an issue [17:31:54] you can jump to 1.23 if you want to do the minimum upgrading to get it working again [17:33:25] hmm [17:33:27] ok [17:33:42] Can you link me quickly to some upgrade manuals? [17:36:27] !upgrade [17:36:27] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading [17:36:31] There's not really much to it [17:36:36] Backup the db, backup the files on disk [17:36:41] Replace the files on disk [17:36:47] run update.php [17:36:49] !update [17:36:49] update.php is a script that updates the database tables. You usually need to run it after upgrading MediaWiki or installing certain extensions. For details, see [17:39:32] ok [17:40:42] Reedy, so you said that I shuold upgrade to 1.23? [17:40:49] As a minimum [17:40:57] Why not 1.27? [17:40:58] Ideally, you should upgrade to 1.27 [17:41:56] Hmm, anyway, maybe it's safer to upgrade to 1.23 first. [17:42:34] Yeah, that's what I was meaning [17:42:43] It should be fine, but might aswell get it working to start with [17:45:50] Ok, added this channel to my idle list. [17:45:58] At least I got some help here. :p [17:46:17] Or I could get php5.3-fpm [17:46:29] well.. [17:46:36] 5.3 isn't supported in MW 1.27 [17:46:44] So you're gonna cause yourself more problems in future [17:47:04] Umh, you know what fpm is, right? [17:47:08] I have multiple php installations. [17:47:19] So I can just switch whenever. [17:49:13] FPM is a process manager [17:54:20] hi [17:54:34] is the .htaccess in 1.27 /images buggy? -> 500 server error [18:29:19] I want the short cute links in mediawiki [18:55:44] !shorturl | Furai [18:55:44] Furai: To create simple URLs (such as the /wiki/PAGENAME style URLs on Wikimedia sites), follow the instructions at or try the new beta tool at . There are instructions for most different webserver setups. If you have problems getting the rewrite rules to work, see !rewriteproblem [19:02:01] hashar, I know how to set it up. I just want it to work with nginx. [19:02:12] Right now it's trying to download main page. [19:02:18] And all the rest works fine. [19:26:25] Ok, it was cache error on my side. [19:26:34] Reedy, hashar thanks for help. [19:28:09] Actually I haven't even looked at links from hashar. :D [19:38:45] bd808: so, I'm not sure what 'lts' is supposed to be, because before https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Module:Version&diff=prev&oldid=2174531 it was 1.23, but I think on IRC ostriches indicated it should be 1.27, so I had it use the most recent release that could be LTS. [19:39:26] 1.23 and 1.27 are both lts. [19:40:22] true, but for the sake of "the" LTS 1.23 is more stable today than 1.27 isn't it? 1.27 is the latest stable [19:40:37] this is a goofy issue to consider though [19:41:07] * bd808 wonders what ubuntu's pages say [19:41:49] the seem to advertise the latest -- http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server [19:42:07] 14.04 is still in support but 16.04 is shown as the lts [19:42:32] reverting my patch will make that happen again on mw.o [19:42:37] s/patch/revision/ [19:44:38] legoktm, ostriches: if LTS should say 1.27.0 then let's revert https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Module:Version&diff=2175631&oldid=2174531 [19:46:05] version numbers give me headaches [19:58:42] bd808: so on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:MediaWiki_version_information_templates it's called 'legacy lts' [19:59:14] hmmm... makes some sense [20:00:22] but I think we should be advertising 1.27 as the LTS everywhere...and I'm not totally sure where all of those templates are being used [20:01:16] I reverted my change to Module:Version [20:01:32] 1.27 for all [20:02:03] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS doesn't even list 16.04 yet. Sheesh [20:30:58] hello [21:18:23] bd808: The git.wikimedia.org references should work, right? [21:18:28] I think someone set up redirects. [21:18:47] some of them, not all for sure [21:19:05] !bug | Debra [21:19:05] Debra: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ [21:19:07] there are some esoteric ones that the redir magic doesn't handle [21:19:12] Brilliant wm-bot [21:19:21] heh [21:19:59] xD [21:23:05] !bug 1 [21:23:05] https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/1 [23:06:12] !bug [23:06:12] https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ [23:06:24] wm-bot is always up to date [23:06:34] !phabricator [23:06:34] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/ [23:06:37] oh [23:06:44] !phabricator 1 [23:06:44] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/1 [23:06:47] eh [23:11:26] hm?
