[11:49:24] Hi, I'm not a mediawiki dev or anything but I'll look at the docs and try to help if I can [12:00:43] raquel_: I'm not seeing any API method for retrieving a list of featuredfeeds. It's possible that some feeds exist in those languages, with a name other than "featured". On Commons the "featured" feed doesn't exist but we do have https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=featuredfeed&feed=potd for pictures of the day [12:01:19] Hopefully someone has a more helpful answer for you; I'm curious myself now [12:04:38] Thank you guanaco. I already tried changing the value for the parameter "feed", but still then! [13:16:00] Is there anyone working with pdfhandler ? if can you say me after uploading a pdf and rendering it using ghostscript suppose the pdf have 5 pages then it has to create 5 jpeg image files as per that of resolutions given using convert then where are they actually created and stored I could not find them almost nowhere in the project folder generally I think ghostscript definetely creates image folders on rendering [13:16:01] what happend to them ? [13:19:30] rammanoj_: They are created at time they are needed [13:19:49] So they might not exist until someone looks at them [13:20:20] is there any function which perform delete operation [13:20:39] They are generally created in the directory images/thumbs//// [13:21:05] They will get deleted if you delete the file, or upload a new version of the file [13:21:08] otherwise no [13:23:41] if you have 404 handling setup, thumbs are safe to delete at anytime, otherwise you shouldn't delete them by hand [13:28:30] thankyou for the help I got the folder and images in it [14:12:40] hi, how can i put a hit counter on wiki pages ? [14:13:38] !e HitCounter [14:13:38] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:HitCounter [14:13:49] Or there are various non-mediawiki solutions [14:15:50] thx i'll take a look :) [14:18:32] Hello there, I am using the following feed to get the featured article and display it in a website i am developing: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=featuredfeed&feed=featured However I can't find it in some languages. Is it because it does not exist? How can I get the featured article then? The feed does not work for spanish, italian,romanian, danish, russian, slovak, dutch, slovenian, croatian, turkish, portuguese.... [14:22:00] raquel_: I think that means it's not fully setup on those wikis [14:22:35] bawolff: i just run the update.php script from the command line and now the wiki shows a error msg [14:22:55] What's the error [14:23:07] [ff764e86186681dcc6278286] 2017-09-18 14:21:34: Fatal exception of type "Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError" [14:23:58] Is there any other way to display the featured article in those languages in my website? [14:24:20] is there a rollback feature i can use ? [14:28:29] i deleted the db... how can i rerun the install script again ? [14:37:06] bawolff: even with a fresh install and the HitCounter extension enabled, the error persist [14:37:14] !debug [14:37:14] For information on debugging (including viewing errors), see https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:How_to_debug . A list of related configuration variables is at https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuration_settings#Debug.2Flogging Also see https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Errors_and_symptoms [14:38:20] Error can often mean that update.php didn't run properly [14:38:29] set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; [14:48:10] bawolff: im thinking mediawiki 1.29 may not even support HitCounter anymore [14:48:22] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/Removing_hit_counters_from_MediaWiki_core [14:48:33] erob: That's referring to a different hit counter [14:48:58] ok [14:49:21] Its of course possible there's something wrong with the new hit counter as well, but the one that got removed was the previous version, not the extension, the extension is the new one [14:50:04] If you can set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; $wgShowSQLErrors = true; $wgShowDBErrorBacktrace = true; [14:50:13] in LocalSettings.php, the error message should get much more specific [14:51:43] yes [14:51:47] http://www.isotoperesearch.ca/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page [14:52:06] That error usually means update.php needs to be run [14:52:35] If you did run update.php, it might mean that update.php gave an error message [14:52:46] In any case, run update.php again, and see if it gives an error message [14:54:34] ok, thank you very much [14:54:45] the db seems fine now [15:01:31] now i cannot login anymore: There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. [15:02:22] Sometimes that could be related to problems with cookies [15:02:26] or php session storage [15:02:57] Try clearing all your cookies, and see if that fixes it (Maybe you have a cookie from the old wiki which is conflicting with new wiki when you reinstalled) [15:15:01] bawolff: what does the wikicache.sqlite db is doing - can i delete it ? [15:42:09] bawolff: In the command used in rendering images by gs where the actual output path to the file is set? [15:42:22] i.e in pdfhandler [19:16:49] hey guys, I'm new in MW and just installed it. I want to create somer users with rights and google sais i should use the user administration but i have no button with something like that. Does anybody know the an solution? [19:18:04] There's a few different solutions [19:18:06] !createAndPromote [19:18:06] There is no such key, you probably want to try: !createandpromote, [19:18:09] !createandpromote [19:18:09] To recreate the admin user, run "php maintenance/createAndPromote.php" on the command line. [19:18:10] or [19:18:14] Just create the accounts [19:18:15] then [19:18:16] !userrights [19:18:16] For information on customizing user access, see < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:User_rights >. For common examples of restricting access using both rights and extensions, see < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access >. [19:30:11] where can i find the command line? [22:01:22] hi, how can i upload a file to the wiki ? i disabled file uploading during install and would like to enable it [22:01:40] !wg EnableUploads [22:01:40] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgEnableUploads [22:01:51] thx [22:02:03] see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuring_file_uploads for complete configuration [22:02:45] ok [23:14:40] hi, why do i have a lot of traffic seeking to use wiki/load.php ? is it a potential security risk? [23:15:41] how should i handle spammers attempting to use load.php ? [23:18:26] How would spammers use load.php [23:18:35] It's used for serving javascript, css and similar assets [23:19:25] i get very high traffic for this script [23:19:42] automated bots perhaps [23:19:48] Probably not [23:19:51] Is your wiki recieving a lot of traffic? [23:20:38] the most traffic is attempting to use load.php [23:20:44] What sort of requests? [23:21:18] If you visit th english wikipedia, for example, and open the network part of your browsers developer tools [23:21:25] You'll see that one page load results in numerous load.pph requests [23:23:15] nevermind, i'm the one generating the traffic to load.php :| [23:24:04] thx for your help anyways :)
