[04:59:20] <rainy-day>	 hi, i’m trying to load up the latest sql dump of wikipedia using mwdumper and I use this command:
[04:59:38] <rainy-day>	 java -jar mwdumper.jar --format=sql:1.6  enwiki-20170720-pages-articles-multistream.xml.bz2 | mysql -u root -p wiki
[04:59:53] <rainy-day>	 and i get this error: Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: XML document structures must start and end within the same entity.
[05:44:13] <Reception123>	 Hello, I tried to upgrade to 1.29 but when I try deleting a page I get "Fatal exception of type MWUnknownContentModelException"
[05:44:18] <Reception123>	 How can this be resolved?
[05:47:36] <TimStarling>	 maybe try installing all the extensions you had before
[05:50:54] <Reception123>	 TimStarling: I already did that
[05:51:12] <Reception123>	 (it's a wiki farm, I'm testing the upgrade on one wiki and enabled every extension available on it)
[05:51:43] <Reception123>	 so I'm unsure how this error can be fixed
[05:53:32] <TimStarling>	 you'll get more information about how to debug that error if you look in the exception log or enable $wgShowExceptionDetails
[05:54:11] <Reception123>	 oh yes, I should've provided that log too
[05:55:33] <Reception123>	 TimStarling: https://dpaste.de/7kp3
[05:55:58] <Reception123>	 I know it's something to do with Flow, but how do I "register" it? and how come it's not already registered?
[05:57:17] <TimStarling>	 define( 'CONTENT_MODEL_FLOW_BOARD', 'flow-board' );
[05:57:37] <TimStarling>	 it's not meant to literally store 'CONTENT_MODEL_FLOW_BOARD' as the content model, it's meant to say flow-board
[05:58:31] <TimStarling>	 you must have had a broken Flow installation when you created that page
[05:58:45] <Reception123>	 PHP Notice:  Constant CONTENT_MODEL_FLOW_BOARD already defined in /srv/mediawiki/w/maintenance/eval.php(77) : eval()'d code on line 1
[05:58:54] <Reception123>	 I'm not sure where was supposed to define(?
[05:59:11] <TimStarling>	 well, if it's already defined, then it should be OK now, no more of those pages will be created
[05:59:26] <TimStarling>	 you'll still have to do
[05:59:49] <TimStarling>	 UPDATE page SET page_content_model='flow-board' WHERE page_content_model='CONTENT_MODEL_FLOW_BOARD';
[06:00:10] <TimStarling>	 UPDATE revision SET rev_content_model='flow-board' WHERE rev_content_model='CONTENT_MODEL_FLOW_BOARD';
[06:01:09] <TimStarling>	 it's not a very nice failure mode, how are you meant to actually uninstall extensions?
[06:04:09] <Reception123>	 Thank you TimStarling 
[06:05:39] <Reception123>	 Another thing: For the AccessControl extension getting /wiki/Special:Version   MWException from line 126 of /srv/mediawiki/w/includes/page/WikiPage.php: Invalid or virtual namespace -1 given.
[06:05:49] <Reception123>	 looks like an upstream error but not sure?
[10:39:42] <sau226>	 How do you get 2 word user roles like sysadmin shows up on the User list and list groups right as System administrator?
[10:48:19] <sau226>	 Hello?
[10:55:11] <PuppyKun>	 Hi guys. We're using the central auth extension and we suppressed / oversighted some block reasons but they still show up in centralauth. Is this cached or stored separately in central auth now?
[10:56:50] <sau226>	 Puppy I'm, a normal user but did you use a global gorup to supress it?
[10:57:01] <PuppyKun>	 sau226: you can create interface messages for the group https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_rights#Creating_a_new_group_and_assigning_permissions_to_it
[10:57:49] <PuppyKun>	 sau226: local OS was assigned via interwiki rights so no
[10:58:04] <sau226>	 oh
[10:58:15] <sau226>	 Maybe try a global group
[10:58:46] <sau226>	 I also think that the user was meant to still be viewed in central auth (user log)
[11:23:05] <mcnesium>	 I am looking for a way to have users of my GitLab CE instance to be able to use their GitLab Account to log into a Mediawiki instance. I am looking at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:User_identity_extensions but https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:OAuth seems to be the other way around. what do I need for my purpose?
[14:28:10] <Guest3457>	 can I ask questions about the CheckUser tool here?
[14:29:02] <legoktm>	 sure
[14:29:39] <Guest3457>	 When a user register an account on english Wikipedia, does the IP where he registered the account stays on Checkuser log forever or just 3 months like others?
[14:31:00] <legoktm>	 just 3 months
[14:31:21] <Guest3457>	 I meant the IP where he registered the account...
[14:32:11] <bawolff>	 There is a bug asking to store that longer, but as it stands thats also just three months
[14:32:42] <Guest3457>	 the bug?
[14:35:05] <Guest3457>	 On that underlying IP where a user registers an account, I heard some will say it's forever but others will say it's just for 3 months
[14:35:25] <Guest3457>	 I'm quite confused by the contradictions so that's why I'm asking about that here.......
[14:36:01] <Guest3457>	 So it's just three months like any others right?
[14:37:51] <bawolff>	 Sorry, the bug request is private for some reason ( https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T170148)
[14:38:30] <bawolff>	 if someone told you it was forever they were lying to you
[14:39:01] <Guest3457>	 okay maybe they were misled too..
[14:39:54] <Guest3457>	 but thanks for your information
[14:40:07] <Guest3457>	 Good luck
[14:42:50] <bawolff>	 Hopefully that guy isnt planinning to mass vandalize...
[16:23:31] <codezee>	 is there any page listing the various log entries by the page curation toolbar?
[19:38:39] <plex_dave>	 hey hey.  i have a server running ubuntu 14.04 with mediawiki installed.  i need 16.04 to get the newer version of something else I am running on that server, is it likely that mediawiki will break if I run the distribution upgrade to 16.04?
[19:39:20] <Skizzerz>	 how did you install mediawiki? via package or by downloading and extracting the tar.gz?
[19:39:38] <Skizzerz>	 if you downloaded/extracted it yourself, I don't see any possible cause of issues
[19:39:54] <Skizzerz>	 make a backup of your database just to be safe though
[19:40:02] <Skizzerz>	 (in case the upgrade corrupts it somehow)
[19:40:43] <plex_dave>	 Yeah, I installed from the tar.gz.  I have a snapshot of the server.
[19:41:33] <plex_dave>	 The wiki isn't super important, like a fun project, but a few people have been having fun with it and I would hate to break it
[19:42:00] <plex_dave>	 thanks a lot!
[20:28:44] <rainy-day>	 hi, i’m trying to load up the latest sql dump of wikipedia using mwdumper and I use this command:
[20:28:51] <rainy-day>	 java -jar mwdumper.jar --format=sql:1.6  enwiki-20170720-pages-articles-multistream.xml.bz2 | mysql -u root -p wiki
[20:28:56] <rainy-day>	 and i get this error: Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: XML document structures must start and end within the same entity.
[20:30:01] <MaxSem>	 hmm, I don't think mwdumper is well maintained these days
[20:30:37] <rainy-day>	 what can i use instead for something the size of wikipedia?
[20:32:47] <MaxSem>	 also, are you sure that your dump has been fully downloaded and it's not truncated?
[20:33:09] <rainy-day>	 pretty sure: I tried two times and the wget indicated 100% were downloaded
[21:16:22] <rainy-day>	 So, is mwdumper the best and recommended way to import wikipedia into mediawiki? I keep running into “XML document structures must start and end within the same entity” error
[21:26:31] <MaxSem>	 rainy, what's the stacktrace?
[21:43:56] <rainy-day>	 MaxSem: messaged
[21:44:25] <rainy-day>	 by the way i confirmed md5sum on the xml dump file
[21:44:54] <Reedy>	 That doesn't mean it's valid XML
[21:45:17] <rainy-day>	 i know but someone asked before if file may be truncated
