[00:01:06] Help? [00:14:29] :( [01:13:57] Anyone…? [01:15:54] Hi Halian_Ashrain. [01:16:00] Yvette: hi [01:16:41] You might be able to disable the localisation cache. [01:16:43] Or rebuild it? [01:16:47] But it sounds like permissions. [01:17:46] I'd like to be able to make it try and create the directory elsewhere, since I'm not supposed to put anything in the root of the scratch webhost. [01:21:04] !wg TmpDirectory [01:21:04] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgTmpDirectory [01:21:33] try changing the value of that? [01:23:23] * Halian_Ashrain looks into [01:26:40] legoktm[NE]: that fixed it, thank you [01:26:48] yw :) [03:23:40] hi! I am attempting to export geolocated module or template data from English Wikipedia (ie en:Module:Yemeni_Civil_War_detailed_map) to something I can use in GIS. I want to do it from the console.... Is it possible to get the API to convert the LUA..... I tried to use kmlexport from the toolserver, but no luck.... I noticed there is a wiki2osm.pl tool there... but not sure how to download it. Just plain stuck! [03:24:33] (are you around Reedy?) [10:12:02] I'm using the ExternalContent plugins to get data from a json api (finally got that working). I'd like to create a template that uses the {{PAGENAME}} variable as a part of the url passed to the externalcontent plugin.. so far I've not been able of having anything but the variables themselves passed through.... [10:14:37] ie: I'll create the template "siteservers", stick something like {{#get_web_data:url=http://hostname/{{queryvalue}}|format=json|data=hostname=host}} and try putting the {{PAGENAME}} thing in the default value for queryvalue [10:15:27] disregard all that [10:15:33] ..seems to work [10:15:38] d'oh [14:55:02] Is there any quick fix for the deprecated message from MWDebug.php:309 [14:55:58] It triggers an error, which creates problems. It should probably be fixed. [15:06:50] bah, turning off the deprecated warnings. case closed. [15:56:48] Experiencing the following CheckUser error: http://i.imgur.com/cgnvp7P.png Any help? [16:11:01] ScarredSun: make sure your version of CheckUser is compatible with your version of MediaWiki [16:11:08] if you just updated mw, ensure you update cu as well [16:11:25] if you just downloaded and installed cu, make sure you got the version of it that corresponds to your mw version [16:17:36] Resolved the issue: seems it's actually an IPv4/IPv6 thing with CloudFlare [16:17:42] Forcing an IPv4 header resolves it :/ [16:32:08] I restored a database backup to my new wiki and now I can't log into either the admin account specified in the new wiki's original database or the backup, nor can I reset the passwords, as it claims neither account exists. [16:33:41] Help? [16:36:07] (And of course I can't get outgoing mail to work to save my life, so I can't reset the passwords.) [16:59:21] Any [16:59:24] Anyone? :( * [17:05:14] what is the problem, Halian_Ashrain? [17:06:15] MatmaRex: I have a database backup I need to restore to my new server, but when I do so, I'm no longer able to log into my wiki using either the new server's default wiki admin account or the one specified in the backup. [17:09:20] Halian_Ashrain: hmm. well, if you have shell access, you can reset the password with the changePassword.php maintenance script, or create a new admin user with createAndPromote.php. [17:09:26] Ah [17:09:37] Where are those, ./Maintenance? [17:09:41] ./maintenance8 [17:09:44] i have no idea why you wouldn't be able to log in, though [17:09:44] ./maintenance* * [17:09:45] yes [17:09:48] Ok [17:09:55] !maintenance [17:09:55] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Maintenance_scripts [17:10:02] there's some documentation for each one there ^ [17:13:15] MatmaRex: After modifying $wgFileExtensions and enabling all the built-in extensions, I get the following error: [8b60e10927d2225a3297c583] / MWException from line 118 of /var/www/html/includes/cache/localisation/LCStoreCDB.php: Unable to move the new CDB file into place. [17:16:55] * Halian_Ashrain goes through the extensions one by one [17:19:14] ...hmm, having any extension enabled (using wfLoadExtension('ExtensionName');) causes that error. [17:21:26] Halian_Ashrain: sorry, i was away. this error is about cached data for localisation files. i guess your user has no permissions to write to wherever that file wants to be written [17:21:45] It's root. o.o [17:23:21] uh huh [17:23:29] It is! :| [17:24:06] Halian_Ashrain: hm. maybe this helps? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Tb7n0jri6p86b8hw [17:26:08] [c3c939df37f03e6cc2082f28] /index.php/Main_Page MWException from line 95 of /var/www/html/includes/cache/localisation/LCStoreCDB.php: Unable to create the localisation store directory "/cache" [17:26:16] (which directory already exists; deleting and retrying…) [17:26:37] …same error [17:27:49] recreating it and chmodding 700 doesn't fix anything [17:31:58] legoktm[NE]: I have a question regarding texvccheck and the mediawiki-lts ppa for Ubuntu [17:32:14] >:/ [17:32:58] legoktm[NE]: I installed the "texvc" package from this PPA, but it does not provide "texvccheck". I'm now seeing errors in my apache log that the texvccheck executable is missing; do I still need this executable? If so, how can I get it aside from compiling it myself? [18:34:03] hi garibaldi_, no the texvc package doesn't provide texvccheck, but I don't think you need it? let me check [18:52:06] garibaldi_: so as far as I can tell, texvccheck is not required. what LocalSettings config did you use for Math? [19:22:00] anyone know how i detect if pcntl module for php is working correctly for scribunto ?, i'm getting some errors messages on log editing pages [19:23:47] alex1a: use php -i / phpinfo()? in any case, anomie is working on getting rid of the pcntl dependency: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/336266/ [19:23:48] something like this "[fatal] [5741b0df] PHP Fatal Error: Call to undefined function pcntl_wifsignaled()" [19:26:44] legoktm[NE], should i try to update my instante of mediawiki ? or try to edit myself that php file? [19:27:30] you're probably better off trying to install the pcntl functions, do you have the ability to install PHP modules? [19:28:09] this problem occur when i edit some specific page, is any way to edit the page without the web interface ? [19:29:11] it wouldn't matter, you'd probably still get the same error [19:29:12] legoktm[NE], yep. i install php throw apt package (debian os), pcntl functions should be installed by default ? [19:30:57] alex1a: I would create a file like info.php in your web root with the contents " legoktm[NE], forget pm [19:32:52] in phpinfo [19:33:30] two finds for "pcntl_wifsignale", in Core's "disable_functions" directive [19:33:42] this mean that are disable functions ? how i enabled them ? [19:37:00] yep, are disabled, thanks legoktm[NE] . http://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.disable-functions [19:37:30] :) you'll need to un-disable them [19:38:06] yep yep, digging how to do it now. its fine, thanks again [19:47:55] After restoring from backup, infoboxen aren't rendering properly — see e.g. http://www.hoenn.me/index.php/Lucy_Tanboku, which uses {{Infobox officeholder}}. Please advise. [19:48:15] I just installed HTML Tidy and set $wgUseTidy = True, and am waiting for the server to reboot. [19:48:50] …ok, it rebooted, to no change. :( [19:59:27] ._. [20:02:41] Halian_Ashrain: I would be guessing that you are missing Extension:Scribunto [20:02:50] *facepalm* [20:03:03] Thanks >_< [20:03:55] And I still have the problem with cache exceptions being thrown when I enable a bundled extension [20:04:11] …or not [20:27:46] Hmm, CategoryTree is missing its extension.json [20:34:31] !e CategoryTree [20:34:31] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryTree [20:35:18] added in 1.28 [20:35:54] fff [20:35:56] * Halian_Ashrain is on 1.27 [20:36:13] * Halian_Ashrain fixes [20:38:59] next up: figuring out how to get the wiki to send emails using SendGrid [20:39:07] (and the forum, but that's a matter for other people) [20:59:12] Halian_Ashrain: seems that SendGrid has a "smtp API" [20:59:13] https://sendgrid.com/docs/Integrate/index.html#-SMTP-Relay [20:59:24] Platonides: yeah, I got it working [20:59:25] thus, it's just a matter of configuring mediawiki to use that [20:59:30] !wg SMTP | Halian_Ashrain [20:59:31] Halian_Ashrain: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgSMTP [20:59:38] I just said that I already got it working… [21:00:05] not on this channel?
