Extension talk:Maintenance

Pretty Cool

I haven't tried it out yet (and with my non-wiki related worload won't get to for a while...), but this seems very useful. Thanks for making it!

Are you planning to add more scripts to it? If so, I would like to suggest generateSitemap.php.

Looking forward to using this extension. Smaug 21:08, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I'm planning on eventually supporting the entirety of the /maintenance directory, plus any extension scripts that want to be included as well (but those get scrutinized more). --Skizzerz ^{talk - contribs} 22:26, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

It seems very usefull when you can't launch any php script within the maintenance directory ! What about deleteOldRevisions.php ? I am also very interrested by the generateSitemap.php

This is helpful, thanks! I'll keep checking back for the generateSitemap.php script as well.

deleteBatch

Is it not working yet or did I do something wrong?

Fatal error: Call to undefined function wfgetlb() in /home/deathbyn/club_html/extensions/Maintenance/Maintenance_body.php on line 410

--DeathByNukes 20:34, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Strange, I'm not getting that error myself... Anyway, this extension is still a bit buggy after many tests with it, so I'd recommend holding off on it and using something like PHP Shell instead (google it). --Skizzerz 20:48, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Heh, my host already has a lot of tools, I'm just not comfortable trying to modify the database directly.--DeathByNukes 22:42, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

The error is due to the fact that wfGetLB() and such were added by Tim Starling in rev:32578. Thus Maintenance won't work on wikis not running 1.13alpha. You should either use an older version of Maintenance or upgrade your MediaWiki to 1.13alpha (or wait for the "full" MW 1.13 release). --Sayuri 11:27, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Question

Does this script work on mediawiki 1.15.1? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.48.105.134 (talk • contribs) 28 January 2010

Yes It does. ^^ —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.93.133.155 (talk • contribs) 18:45, 17 February 2010

MW 1.16

Does this work safely with MediaWiki 1.16 ? Preferably with 1.16.0beta3 ? Krinkle 04:00, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

The current version does not work with 1.16. I do have an updated version that does work, but I have yet to commit it as I'd like to ideally at least have most of the common scripts supported upon its release. --Skizzerz 04:34, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Yay late replies, but the new version in svn works with 1.16+ now. --Skizzerz 08:37, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

it not work for me the maintenance page is empty (i've changed enabled to 1 and have file on maintenance folder!)

MW 1.17 gives several parser errors

I try to install the Extension, but when I click on Special:Maintenance, I get many errors.

Including:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /hermes/bosweb/web026/b264/ipg.coennetworkcom/extensions/Maintenance/Maintenance_body.php on line 349

Please help! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 90.204.161.197 (talk • contribs) 13:02, 20 July 2011

also for me when opening Special:Maintenance I get several errors (no scripts shown on that Special page), errors shown are:

I am using: Maintenance-trunk-r92186.tar.gz, Special:version shows (Version 2.0.0), --Erkan Yilmaz 13:32, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Will look into this, expect a fix in a few days. --Skizzerz 04:47, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

great, I'll try the fix then, hope that motivates more ;-) --Erkan Yilmaz 04:48, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Also have what seems to be the same errors after upgrade Mediawiki 1.18 and upgrading this extension to the trunk version. Here's a ScreenShot of the errors. Mlpearc powwow 11:14, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

Broken in Mediawiki 1.17.1

Downloaded everything for 1.17.1. I had it installed and working fine on a 1.16 install. Here are the particulars. MediaWiki 1.17.1 PHP 5.2.17 (cgi-fcgi) MySQL 5.0.67-log Once enabled, it breaks the Special:SpecialPages and throws a 500 internal. Permissions? Do I have to set something in the maintenance folder?
