[12:29:23] <drishya8>	 Hello, I have been trying to install MediaWiki locally for the past two days; I have been facing error "403 Forbidden" https://ibb.co/b5ZghPY ; I have tried to resolve it myself and moved on to the stackoverflow, tried to follow those suggestions, but wasn't able to resolve it; I have also tried purging everything and reinstalling LAMP and Core. I was frustrated and stuck with no ideas; please help me to come out of this.
[12:29:23] <drishya8>	 Thanks in advance. 
[12:37:36] <irmophus>	 I am trying to remove a last name from a biography on Wikipedia. It seems like I can edit all the text except the "header", where the full name is used. I have now tried everything and read every FAQ, without getting anywhere. What to do? The person has gotten a divorce a long time ago, and want to remove the former spouses name from Wikipedia. 
[12:45:47] <p858snake>	 hi irmophus, #wikipedia-en is probably the better channel to ask the question in
[12:46:05] <p858snake>	 or #wikipedia-en-help
[13:41:16] <biberao>	 drishya8: permissions
[13:41:17] <biberao>	 ?
[15:10:27] <drishya8>	 biberao: Yes, Sorry for the delay 
[15:11:04] <drishya8>	 I also tried giving chmod 755 permissions. but no change. 
[15:12:07] <biberao>	 drishya8: change the ownership
[15:12:57] <drishya8>	 Sorry, I didn't get you; Get you please brief me on it?
[15:14:24] <Gopa>	 Hello drishya8 umm I'm just wondering about why? Let me also check on it.
[15:16:09] <biberao>	 drishya8: 
[15:16:18] <biberao>	 the webserver should have access to it?
[15:17:01] <drishya8>	 Yes, I guess; How can I check it?
[15:25:49] <biberao>	 you can check what user/group your server has
[15:25:53] <biberao>	 and then match them
[15:27:08] <biberao>	 actually i never match them only for php
[15:34:52] <drishya8>	 biberao: Thank you :) I'll surely try it out.
[15:53:10] <c>	 hello i upgraded to 1.32.0 and the recent changes header is very ugly, can I get the old style back
[15:56:35] <Reedy>	 c: OOUI-ification?
[16:02:32] <c>	 i don't know anything about ooui 
[18:52:16] <raghavendra>	 How can I change all the strings from "http://www.mediawiki.org" to "https://www.mediawiki.org" in all the thousands of  files in a single command in Linux from the command line interface? Any suggestions please? 
[18:54:02] <Reedy>	 That string specifically? Why?
[18:55:35] <raghavendra>	 I found a lot of http protocals in Mediawiki code base, to change to https to make secure requests.
[18:57:50] <raghavendra>	 any idea reedy ? I have tried 
[18:57:50] <raghavendra>	 sed -i 'http://(www\.)?mediawiki\.org/$https://(www\.)?mediawiki\.org/g' *.php
[18:57:50] <raghavendra>	 but it's not working in my case, can suggestioins please @Reedy 
[18:58:04] <Reedy>	 I'm not sure this is particularly necessary
[18:58:09] <Reedy>	 Server side, we enforce HTTPS
[18:58:33] <Reedy>	 Client side, www.mediawiki.org is in the HSTS lists for anyone running a recent ish browser
[18:58:56] <raghavendra>	 I know this doesnt not make any sense but still.
[18:59:32] <Reedy>	 There's also numerous usages in core that I don't know if they should just be uniformly replaced with HTTPS either
[19:00:16] <andre__>	 Use find and sed, I guess.
[19:00:32] * raghavendra Yeah I have tried this 
[19:00:35] <raghavendra>	 sed -i 'http://(www\.)?mediawiki\.org/$https://(www\.)?mediawiki\.org/g' *.php
[19:00:50] <andre__>	 I can imagine there is something on stackoverflow about this
[19:01:42] <raghavendra>	 I have tried searching about this in stackoverflow, after a long workdone I thought of asking in community
[19:02:21] <andre__>	 raghavendra: Does sed accept more than one specific input file?
[19:02:41] <raghavendra>	 yes I guess
[19:03:06] <andre__>	 raghavendra, what makes you think so?
[19:03:43] <andre__>	 https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/112023/how-can-i-replace-a-string-in-a-files
[19:05:14] <raghavendra>	 yeah the same thing I have mentioned in above sed command, any false in that ?
[19:06:07] <andre__>	 what "same thing"?
[19:07:39] <raghavendra>	 I have followed in the similar way as you suggested with the link, I have followed all those syntaxt correctly I guess, this I ment as samething :)
[19:09:55] <andre__>	 My guess would be something like:  find . -name '*.php' -exec sed -i -e 's/http:\//https:\//g' {} \;
[19:10:03] <andre__>	 no idea, there are many ways to do this :)
[19:10:28] <raghavendra>	 Okay Thanks andre__  
[19:35:03] <shreyasminocha>	 hi. just installed mediawiki, but all pages seem to be completely blank. what could be going on?
[19:39:03] <samwilson>	 shreyasminocha: do you mean completely blank and no output? you likely have an error; have a look at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:How_to_debug#PHP_errors for how to make it display 
[19:39:06] <andre__>	 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Errors_and_symptoms#You_see_a_Blank_Page
[19:39:27] <samwilson>	 shreyasminocha: what andre__ said is a better link :)
[19:40:05] <shreyasminocha>	 i tried adding that snippet, but it didn't work last i tried. i haven't tried again since i started over, so let me have a look
[19:43:11] <shreyasminocha>	 it's nice that mw doesn't show error messages by default though :)
[20:13:05] <tgr>	 raghavendra: that should be .org$/ not .org/$
[20:13:23] <tgr>	 plus you need to escape all the / signs which do not have special meaning
[20:15:14] <andre__>	 shreyasminocha: it's safer - you don't want to hand out too much info to a potential attacker :)
[20:15:23] <shreyasminocha>	 yeah :)
[20:15:35] <shreyasminocha>	 (didn't intend sarcasm)
[20:25:26] <shreyasminocha>	 added `error_reporting( E_ALL ); ini_set( 'display_errors', 1 );` to LocalSettings.php, restarted server. /index.php is still blank :(
[20:29:26] <shreyasminocha>	 took me this long because i was trying to start from scratch to undo silly stuff i might've done in debugging attempts
[20:32:05] <Skizzerz>	 shreyasminocha: your LocalSettings.php probably has an error on it or something
[20:32:54] <shreyasminocha>	 Skizzerz: i ran `php maintenance/install.php --dbname 'wiki' --dbuser 'shreyasminocha' --lang 'en' wiki admin --pass '<redacted>'` to generate it
[20:33:03] <Skizzerz>	 if you have the ability to view/modify php.ini, check the error logging settings there and ensure that errors are being logged to a file somewhere
[20:36:13] <Skizzerz>	 shreyasminocha: the cli installer is more of an advanced feature, as it skips some of the safety checks that the web installer runs to ensure that your environment works for mediawiki
[20:36:34] <shreyasminocha>	 i couldn't access the web installer :(
[20:37:18] <Skizzerz>	 what happened when you tried?
[20:38:21] <shreyasminocha>	 was met with a blank page
[20:38:39] <Skizzerz>	 well, then your web environment is broken
[20:39:19] <shreyasminocha>	 hmm... i'm using nginx
[20:39:25] <Skizzerz>	 common causes are: wrong php version, wrong file permissions/ownership, bad php.ini file for web
[20:39:53] <Skizzerz>	 turn on error logging/reporting in php.ini, delete LocalSettings.php and your database, then try accessing the web installer again
[20:40:09] <Skizzerz>	 (oh, another common cause: missing/corrupted files, if some of them didn't get uploaded all the way)
[20:41:03] <shreyasminocha>	 okay, let me try. thanks for your time :)
[23:02:53] <Blackwire>	 More of a procedural question than a technical one, but: has anyone ever seen a Cite/Reference setup pointing to media? Using TimedMediaHandler if it helps.
