[07:05:05] Hi - I'm trying to integrate mediawiki into some Raspberry Pi's to work in remote locations - anyone else worked in that kind of space ? [07:20:38] http://willbeone-techtips.co.za/2018/02/12/installing-mediawiki-raspberry-pi3/ these instructions are already obsolete but at least you know it's doable [07:21:47] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Running_MediaWiki_on_Debian_or_Ubuntu these instructions cover install on raspbian, but I see you've already looked at them and updated them :-) [16:08:38] !log tools.bookreader Hot fix to load commons file from local URL [16:08:38] Wrong channel, try again. [16:08:38] Jaypraka_: Not expecting to hear !log here [18:29:49] I'm considering installing a personal instance of MediaWiki, on my own computer, mainly to be viewed by me. Is this possible, and is it a good idea? [18:32:04] yabobay: yep, it's possible. I question why you need a wiki as opposed to just using some dedicated note-taking app [18:32:25] or rather, for what purpose are you wanting to have the wiki for? [18:32:44] well, for fun to be honest [18:32:51] good enough a reason as any :) [18:33:09] what OS are you running on your computer? [18:33:22] Linux. The distro is OpenSUSE. [18:33:28] I've also found packages. [18:35:17] The website says I need a database server. I don't even know what that is though. [18:35:31] yabobay: you'll want to install apache, php, and mysql via your package manager [18:36:11] do NOT install mediawiki via package manager; mediawiki does not officially distribute via packages, and the ones found in package repos are generally way out of date as maintainers get bored [18:36:43] the one i found is 1.13.1 [18:36:48] *31 [18:36:57] is that recent enough? [18:37:00] no [18:38:04] while 1.31 itself is still under support as its an LTS release, the most recent version of that branch is 1.31.4. 1.31.1 has numerous unpatched security vulnerabilities [18:38:26] I'll just get the one from the website then. [18:38:43] (er, 1.31.6 is the most recent, not .4) [18:39:05] for your own site, consider getting the most recent version: 1.34.0 [18:39:28] yabobay: have you checked out https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installation_guide yet? [18:39:42] it breaks down all of the requirements in more detail [18:40:23] This is what I'm looking at actually [18:40:31] Along with the requirements page. [18:40:45] if you want an easier setup, I'd suggest grabbing the docker container for it, which includes all of those dependencies already set up and configured for you [18:41:17] see https://hub.docker.com/_/mediawiki for details [18:42:35] Umm, what's docker? I've heard of it, but I never understood what it does. [18:43:25] software that manages "containers" -- which are self-contained applications, so you don't need to do system-wide installs of dependencies. Each container manages its own dependencies separately [18:43:34] that's a high-level overview, at least [18:44:31] Won't that mean mediawiki won't be able to access files outside of its container though? (I could be completely wrong here) [18:46:23] Either way, I think I should do the manual install, so that I know what I'm doing. [18:46:25] no, that's correct in a sense (you can expose files to the container) [18:46:30] ok :) [18:46:49] mediawiki doesn't access any files outside of its tree anyway [18:47:24] So the individual pages are stored in the same place where MediaWiki is run from? [22:03:04] Hi guys, I want to use VE for mediawiki 1.31 but I get errors. People fixed that by downgrading parsoid to 0.8.0all. But how can I do that on Windows 10? [23:20:09] hi [23:20:24] my need help [23:22:10] hello [23:24:38] ?? [23:25:01] what's your question? [23:29:44] hi help me ? [23:57:33] hello [23:59:37] hi [23:59:57] money have wikipedia
