[02:56:47] the 755 folders are your problem; it's probably the middle one, and that it's owned or grouped by someone other than the webserver. [02:57:04] so it should be like "apache.apache" and 775 [02:57:13] err 755 [02:57:38] you shouldn't have anything as 777. that clearly can't be your error anyway because that's wide open [11:04:35] hi there everyone [11:05:06] I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this, please tell me where would the right place be to ask this question [11:05:49] I am trying to make a database of "any page belongs to what categories" on the English Wikipedia [11:06:35] Like for example after analysis if you type in Owl, you would get categories: bird, flying animal, animal, nocturnal animal, basically any categories that is listed for it [11:06:43] The closest thing I could find was: [11:06:51] https://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20200901/enwiki-20200901-categorylinks.sql.gz [11:06:55] from: [11:07:00] https://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20200901/ [11:07:12] Is this what I am looking for? [11:07:22] and also how can I process this? [11:13:18] sorry for that [11:13:25] bad connection [11:13:40] did anyone say anything for me when I was gone? [11:15:00] no [11:15:21] thank you tykling [11:15:37] cucumber: that's probably what you're looking for, indeed. It's an sql script [11:16:06] Vulpix yes it probably might be that is what I was thinking, it looks like a script that fills up a table [11:16:19] !db categorylinks [11:16:19] See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:categorylinks_table [11:16:48] but I am not sure if it would fill the tables with page names like "owl" under bird nocturnal and animal [11:16:53] like a taxonomy [11:16:59] thank you Vulpix [11:17:19] You'll also need the page.sql script because categorylinks only has page id but not the title [11:17:30] !db page [11:17:30] See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:page_table [11:17:33] ohhhh yeap yeap [11:17:44] you are AWESOME Vulpix [11:17:48] that is what I needed man [11:18:00] thank you thank you thank you and one more thank you [11:18:28] that is exactly what I freaking needed [11:19:21] yw :) [11:19:49] https://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20200901/enwiki-20200901-page.sql.gz [11:19:54] ^ is this the right one? [11:20:05] yes [11:20:18] "Thank you" is not enough [11:20:27] <3 [11:20:34] Thank you everyone else [11:33:12] one tiny last question I promise [11:33:46] Is it possible to feed this sql file as an script to my sqlite processing app to generate the tables? [14:16:14] Hi. We're experiencing quite a few ”Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender” errors to our postmaster caused by MediaWiki email confirmations sent to spammer's non-existing addresses. Any tips on how to prevent those while maintaining the possibility of another type of reply reaching us? [14:16:54] I'd also be interested if anyone knows of ways to make MW better validate the email addresses on-the-fly (ie. opening a connection to check the validity of the address) [14:29:30] ZeiP: There's https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:BounceHandler but nothing to proactively check if the destination address exists [14:32:18] Thanks, that could work. Our actual problem could probably be solved without it, but it seems like a good idea [14:44:58] I use a noreply@ for wgPasswordSender. It's simple but effective [14:46:08] Yeah, that would probably be one option, but IMO it's not very good Internet behavior so I wouldn't want to do that [15:59:03] MW 1.34.2: WP Template:Infobox person generates Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination. Images folder set to 777. Thanks! [15:59:50] I manually entered an image here: https://digitalmatrixgroup.com/index.php/Test1 [18:36:17] RoanKattouw: looking at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T219592 as we get closer to multi-dc. I'm guessing this didn't happen? :) [18:37:13] No :( I wrote up that Dec 9 post as a proposal for Aaron to consider / shoot holes in, but 1) I wasn't explicit enough about that, 2) I went on vacation for Christmas and forgot about it [18:54:36] MW 1.34.2: Any reason why I there is no Upload File in the sidebar under tools? I tried to add Special:Upload as a link and no go [20:33:01] MW 1.34.2: Upload File missing from Tools in Sidebar. Any help appreciated [20:33:52] Manually entering Special:Upload works fine from Search Bar [20:42:29] foreclosurepedia: the link will only appear if you're logged in as a user who is allowed to upload files. that's the only thing i can think of [20:42:51] I am the admin and logged in. thx [20:44:41] i guess you could also set https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgUploadNavigationUrl to a link to Special:Upload [20:45:08] can you check first if file uploads actually work on your wiki? [20:45:30] (i mean, try to upload a file) [20:46:16] https://digitalmatrixgroup.com/index.php/File:Marta_Lakewood.pngI can manually go to Special:Upload. Yeah, here is a upload I did the other day ... [20:48:03] And trying to enter it as Special:Upload into Sidebar as * Special:Upload does not work either [20:50:20] it might need to be "** Special:Upload", with two stars [20:50:38] a single star defines a section, instead of a single link [20:50:50] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Interface/Sidebar [20:51:53] No dice. With or without spaces; single * or double [20:52:13] do I need the " added to it? [20:52:51] no [20:53:40] try ** Special:Upload|Upload [20:53:53] like with the last link you have in the sidebar [20:55:10] BINGO! thanks! So, the links require the pipe to create the wording to hyperlink? is that a fair way to put it? [21:20:54] so it seems [21:21:49] Great. Thanks for your help and have a great evening! [23:40:03] Hi, is there a way to mark a page as a dependency of another page? For example I want readers to study page about X only ater they read page about Y. Also is there a way to mark a page as completed (read and all exercises passed) by a particular user? [23:43:28] gry: you could use something like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Checklist to have uses check boxes when they are done with things [23:43:36] users
