complete failure

Jump to: navigation, search

I'm not even sure where to begin here. I downloaded the extension, uploaded it to my server, to ../extensions/ untarred the tarball. I edited LocalSettings.php to include

require_once("$IP/extensions/OpenID/OpenID.setup.php");

Then, ran php maintenance/update.php, which gives this error:

Content-type: text/html

<br />
<b>Parse error</b>:  syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' 
in <b>/home/content/29/5132729/html/gpbp/maintenance/commandLine.inc</b> on line <b>13</b><br />

Reloading the wiki, any page, gave only this:

Warning: require_once(Auth/Yadis/XRI.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in 
/home/content/29/5132729/html/gpbp/extensions/OpenID/SpecialOpenIDLogin.body.php on line 28

in /home/content/29/5132729/html/gpbp/extensions/OpenID/SpecialOpenIDLogin.body.php on line 28

I came here and read something about uploading the "Auth" folder from phph4-openid to my toplevel dir, so I did that, re-ran update.php, got the same error, and, when reloading the wiki, got:

Warning: require_once(Auth/OpenID/BigMath.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: 
No such file or directory in /home/content/29/5132729/html/gpbp/Auth/OpenID.php on line 30

in /home/content/29/5132729/html/gpbp/Auth/OpenID.php on line 30

I read the readme for the php4-openid extension, so, from that, determined it would be useful to run ../extensions/openidblahblah/examples/detect.php. Mostly that seemed to indicate that everything was as it should, except, it said libcurl was installed, but it failed to fetch a url, and, it says,

Your web server seems to corrupt queries.  Received , expected a=%26b.
Check for mod_encoding.

The server is running CentOS, and has php4.4. My wiki is MediaWiki 1.16.2. The host is godaddy.com.

The site is goodpayer-badpayer.info

I have ssh access, but not root.

It looks, as if you have not correctly set up your extensions/OpenID subdirectories. Try to redo following the installation instructions exactly. --Wikinaut 22:53, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Okay, it does seem I missed one tiny detail in the installation instructions (adding $IP/extensions/OpenID/" to the $path). Also, it seems I had failed to upload the entire Auth directory. Gftp had dumped, and only half of it was there (thus the error saying tno URINorm.php, because it was missing). Now I've gotten those ironed out, and I can actually access the Special:OpenIDLogin page, I can't get it to work. I tried with my google account and with a livejournal OpenID. I'm going to look further into the suggested configs and get back here with either, a) a report of success, or b) details of my attempts, and the errors I receive.

Still no joy. I've gone over everything. The only thing I can find that I haven't been able to resolve is that there is no gmp, but, I'm on paid hosting with no root access to the server, so there's nothing I can do about that. Running examples/detect.php seemed to indicated that, while not optimal, bcmath would suffice. I can't compile php with gmp support without root access, so this extension is completely useless to me. The error I get when trying to add an OpenID is this:

A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:
(SQL query hidden)
from within function "SpecialOpenID::getUser". Database returned error "1146: Table 'goo1108409062663.mw_user_openid' doesn't exist (goo1108409062663.db.5132729.hostedresource.com)".
You apparently did not or could not run point 7 (run update.php) of installation instructions after having everything installed in the subdirectories and after having LocalSettings.php modified; this step adds new tables to the database needed for OpenID extension. But when not having GMP, the extension will not work, as indicated by you. If you can install a new Wiki, than perhaps an alternative is to install everything (all files) in place, and then to run the a new wiki installation, which will (should) update the database tables, too. --Wikinaut 05:31, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
