[00:31:09] Hello, im attempting to install mediawiki on microsoft azure server for the first time...i was able to get the files setup, and when i go to configure and create the localsettings.php i get an error: [c9bf4bb59b3e4487f8463510] /mw-config/index.php?page=Install DBQueryError from line 1054 of D:\home\site\wwwroot\includes\libs\rdbms\database\Database.php: A database query error has occurred. Did you forget to run your application' [00:43:31] Not sure how i can perform a manual update with microsoft azure [00:53:14] hmm [00:53:47] kevindank what is the rest of the error message? [01:07:39] A bunch of info about my db...i think i need to determine how to run upgrade.php [01:07:50] Sveta: i'll double check [01:09:26] seeing the full error message text may be helpful [01:09:30] its doing a database upgrade during startup but it has been running for about 30 minutes with no change, just a spining wheel....I also tried to manually create alocalsettings.php error [01:10:13] Now when i go to site white upgrade.php is running during setup, it displays; [8f8293aa8f6c118d5e2372be] 2018-03-13 01:09:45: Fatal exception of type DBQueryError [01:15:13] https://pastebin.com/cKjaMiwg full error [01:17:05] thanks, someone may be able to figure out what to do from there. i'm not personally sure sorry [01:44:44] So again im using Mediawiki 1.28.2 on Microsoft Azure...i installed it and filled out the configuration file but it is stuck on updating db tables...spinning wheel still going howevre [01:44:49] https://pastebin.com/cKjaMiwg full error [02:06:22] kevindank: don't use 1.28 [02:06:34] it's out of support [02:06:56] either stick on LTS (which is 1.27 as of now, the upcoming but not-yet-released 1.31 will also be LTS), or stick to latest stables (1.30) [02:08:20] Skizzerz: I will try to update...any advice on the azure related questions? [02:17:07] if you can't get ssh access, re-running the installer with a LocalSettings.php already in place will perform an upgrade [02:17:41] it sounds like you may have a messed-up install (perhaps an install only completed partially?). If that's the case, try a clean install [12:42:57] is there a way for me to manually change a user password through the db...or for me to be able to create a user with admin priveledges in localsettings [12:43:05] we have forgotten the admin password for the wiki [12:43:27] There's maintenance scripts [12:43:37] changePassword.php and createAndPromote.php [12:43:48] can i access those via browser? [12:43:51] no [12:43:59] How would i run on an azure site? [12:45:20] No idea... Do you not get any sort of shell access? [12:46:02] I dont believe so...i've only been able to figure out how to connect to mysql and how to access via ftp [12:46:38] i see the user table in the db and see the list of users....the password field i tried to setmanually but im not sure if its not working because it needs md5 hash or something like that [12:46:47] my other idea was to somehow create an admin user in localsettings [12:47:16] No and no [12:47:29] The closest you could do is create a normal user.. then make them an admin via an sql query [12:48:15] that would work [12:48:20] actually, jsut found console access [12:50:16] what would i do in console? [12:51:47] could i use this? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MaintenanceShell [13:08:58] so i was able to recreate the admin user by rerunning mw config....however when i go to login it says The supplied credentials could not be authenticated. [14:23:33] Hello, when attempting to install extensions via Composer i get Bad Request [14:24:01] example: php composer.[har require mediawiki/semantic-media-wiki "~2.5" -- update-no-dev [15:01:04] Lol Your name change still shows Nick bro [15:06:53] I need some logic help on naming/structure. I want to use Mediawiki to log technical data of installations. Each installation should have some standard things like "general", "printers" etc. [15:07:13] I was thinking of creating a category for each installation, an then creating default pages [15:07:29] but mediawiki doesn't allow us to create two pages with the same name in the system. [15:08:04] I don't really understand why they would do this, and how I should structure information that is similar in each category. [15:08:54] I had a look at subpages, but that's not it too. [15:16:02] semantic mediawiki/semantic forms [15:17:12] kevindank, that's for me? [15:17:47] finalbeta: ye [15:17:49] yes [15:31:19] kevindank, I see and I get why you say that. But that adding a lot for not forfilling my requirement [15:32:10] Or only partially. still, looking at it, but looks like a whole lot of work to set something like that up while i only need a true hyarchy [15:35:12] kevindank: that is something you write into the package.json - I think [15:44:53] hey harmaahylje: i was finally able to get Composer installed, and it allows me to run the smw command but smw never shows up in special:specialpages [15:49:26] kevindank: the command you specified should not be run [15:49:45] you add that line into packages.json, then you run composer update --no-dev [15:50:11] require mediawiki/semantic-media-wiki "~2.5" <-- packages.json [15:50:21] then $ composer update --no-dev (or something like that) [15:50:46] okay let me give it a shot [15:51:00] do you know the default location of packages.json? [15:51:13] the root of the project [15:51:23] Thank you [15:51:41] hold on [15:51:45] it might have a different name [15:51:51] :-) [15:51:55] composer.json? [15:52:24] awesome [15:52:31] i was gonna say, i see composer.json but not packages.json [15:53:59] sorry! :D [15:55:44] where would you add that in composer.json...very bottom? doesn't match the format of th efile [15:58:21] maybe I don't remember coorectly [15:58:42] I don't have the structure open so I can't check it [15:58:53] you list it in the list of required packages [15:59:14] (and you don't put in that "require" part) [15:59:57] oh what ever, you were right, smw recommends doing it with that command [16:00:12] but you need to run it in the directory of your mediawiki [16:00:18] if you do it that way [16:07:24] harmaahylje: i did do the command and when i go to run php maintenance/update.php it tells me that your composer.lock file is not up to date. run composer update to install new dependancies [16:07:46] so i run composer update command and it finishes...but still unable to proceed or get it to show in special:specialpages [16:12:42] looks like it was due to confirmedit extension being active [16:12:43] now it works [16:13:53] although now when i go to login i get: There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. Go back to the previous page, reload that page and then try again. [16:33:40] kevindank: and what happens if you relogin? [16:33:59] same message [16:34:12] happens inprivate tab to [16:34:47] what kind of setup do you have? [16:37:59] Azure + MW 1.29 [17:15:15] well there is probably something else to it too :P [17:26:13] I set CookieSecure to false in localsettings and that stopped the error [17:46:02] hmmph [17:46:10] I hope kevindank looks into the real problem [17:46:40] well if that fixed it, the real problem is that he didn't set up SSL [18:18:19] Hello I've found an E-Mail-adress on a flow page. Where can I ask v [18:18:33] ...for deleteing it [18:47:14] (He found the hide-button) [19:10:45] what's a flow page [19:11:12] !e Flow [19:11:12] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Flow [19:12:51] https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension%3AStructuredDiscussions&type=revision&diff=2735959&oldid=2715748 that's better [20:26:34] Hi, can anyone help me with rich card in media wiki, I would like to implement it [20:34:56] legoktm: thanks. Not good that it has two names though, quite confusing! [20:35:08] nope :/
