[12:19:54] <Reedy>	 Urbanecm: Possibly part of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T227662
[12:20:06] <Reedy>	 Per Brad's comment on https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/core/+/530374/ > Are you going to do the same for patch-actor-table.sql? It's also part of T227662.

[14:42:30] <newbie>	 hello there
[14:43:02] <bawolff>	 Hi
[14:43:29] <newbie>	 anyone available for a quick question ? 'fatal error' bug
[14:43:45] <Reedy>	 !fatal
[14:43:45] <wm-bot>	 There is no such key, you probably want to try: !blank, !blankpage, !errors, 
[14:43:52] * Reedy kicks wm-bot
[14:45:12] <newbie>	 I have a weird issue which doesn't allow me to create a page with 'http://' in the text.. so symlink to external site result in a fatal error OOUI\Exception.
[14:45:27] <newbie>	 I haven't found any topic on that error so.. I came here :)
[14:46:28] <bawolff>	 newbie: Can you set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; to get a full error message, and then put the full error message in a pastebin
[14:46:43] <bawolff>	 newbie: Also, if you installed via git, ensure that composer dependencies are up to date
[14:47:23] <bawolff>	 (i.e. run composer update --no-dev. But only do this if you installed via git)
[14:50:00] <newbie>	 thanks bawolff, here is the pastbin : https://pastebin.com/1xwR47wC
[14:51:18] <newbie>	 for the installation of mediawiki, i just unzip the mediawiki-1.33.0.tar.gz in www

[14:52:39] <bawolff>	 newbie: Hmm, looks like a bug in ConfirmEdit (Captchas)
[14:53:01] <bawolff>	 probably triggering on adding https, as captchas trigger on edits that add links
[14:53:20] <bawolff>	 Let me try testing captchas on my install to see if I can trigger the same error
[14:55:14] <newbie>	 preview works fine.
[14:55:22] <bawolff>	 newbie: Actually, looks like this was fixed in dd1ccc92eaa4c7e0e
[14:55:26] <newbie>	 as soon as I record => error
[14:55:33] <bawolff>	 T232129
[14:55:34] <stashbot>	 T232129: OOUI\Exception occurs when try to insert "https://w" to page - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T232129
[14:56:34] <newbie>	 oh great, thank you.
[14:58:16] <newbie>	 perfect, working now. Thks
[14:58:40] <bawolff>	 I'm backporting the fix to 1.33 so that hopefully it will be included in the next point release
[15:12:00] <bawolff>	 I also added it to the list at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.33#Known_issues
[15:15:41] <Reedy>	 bawolff: Probably one being done this week, so should be, yeah
[15:15:42] <Reedy>	 Ta for hte backport
[15:16:33] <bawolff>	 Woo!
[15:28:01] <Reedy>	 uh, this month, not this week. Haha
[18:55:18] <superboot>	 Hi all. How can I put an html tag into the text of a page? In other words I have wiki page about html tags I want to talk about them. Wrapping it in "pre" tags doesn't help: <pre><mytag>Test text</mytag></pre>. The "</" part expands to a south-west pointing arrow. Hints?
[18:56:02] <bawolff>	 superboot: You want to display the tag (not like have it actually be in the html) right?
[18:56:04] <bawolff>	 There's two ways
[18:56:09] <bawolff>	 &lt;mytag&gt;
[18:56:16] <bawolff>	 or <nowiki><mytag></nowiki>
[18:56:48] <bawolff>	 That said, I don't understand how </ would expand to a SW pointing arrow in any context
[18:57:23] <superboot>	 bawolff: I don't ether. 
[18:57:48] <superboot>	 Those don't work, and still result in the arrow.
[18:58:35] <superboot>	 When I try to copy the arrow symbol, I past a litteral '</' (two characters). So weird. What could be causing this?
[18:59:47] <bawolff>	 Weird font with crazy liturgates?
[21:03:43] <Blackwire>	 With the wfLoadExtension setup, is there a way to reference extensions elsewhere on the server? I ask as I host several copies of Mediawiki and would prefer to consolidate if possible.
[21:05:03] <James_F>	 Blackwire: Can you make your extensions/ directory a symlink? That's what we generally see.
[21:05:38] <Blackwire>	 If that works, then sure.
[21:06:04] <Blackwire>	 Is there a reason that couldn't be done for all core files? I remember having issues doing so with the maintenance folder but otherwise
[21:15:04] <James_F>	 Well, you'd need to be careful with LocalSettings.php.
[21:15:25] <James_F>	 But if all of the wikis are safe to run the exact same version of core in lock-step (and you can upgrade them all at once), that should be fine.
