Can we get some installation instructions for those without Composer? :) --GeorgeBarnick (talk) 01:02, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Duplicate inclusion
In addition to 68695 (after replacing a wrong "client" with "repo" in the include), I get: MediaWiki 1.24alpha Updater

Going to run database updates for wiki Depending on the size of your database this may take a while! ...wb_items_per_site doesn't exist. ...wb_items doesn't exist. ...wb_aliases doesn't exist. ...wb_texts_per_lang doesn't exist.

Nevermind, I just to add the duplicate inclusion after the one mandated by installation instructions, that is the lines: require_once "$IP/extensions/Wikidata/extensions/PropertySuggester/PropertySuggester.php"; require_once "$IP/extensions/Wikidata/extensions/Wikibase/client/WikibaseClient.php"; require_once "$IP/extensions/Wikidata/extensions/Wikibase/repo/Wikibase.php"; --Nemo 23:14, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

Error readapidenied between private wikis
Hello

I installed Wikibase repo and 2 clients (all private) but the queries with the API of wikibase between the wikis don't work.

You can see the error when myfrwiki calls a query to myenwiki (event JS in the field page in the popup "Link with page")

I use the parameters for the family wiki and it works :
 * $wgCrossSiteAJAXdomains = array(       "en.xxxxx.fr",      "fr.xxxxx.fr",      "pool.xxxxx.fr" );
 * $wgSharedDB = "mydbpool";
 * $wgCookieDomain = ".xxxxx.fr";
 * $wgSharedTables[] = "ipblocks";
 * $wgSharedTables[] = "interwiki";

Can you help me ? Thanks--Karima Rafes (talk) 11:42, 18 November 2014 (UTC)


 * The reason is the API doesn't read the cookie between the Wiki. --Karima Rafes (talk) 22:37, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

composer command for installing dependencies
Hi,

I needed to run the composer install command instead of php composer.phar install in the extension's folder. I am new to wikibase and currently trying to get it to work on my own pc (Win7).

It appears I installed composer "globally", which would seem to be not what the installation guide expects. Maybe this could be added?

Instructions as given require MediaWiki 1.26
The instructions given here appear to download the tip of the development sources, which won't run on my MediaWiki 1.25 installation because it says it requires MediaWiki 1.26. The system requirements page says that Wikibase only requires MediaWiki 1.23. Could someone please fix the instructions so we can use Wikibase with a released version of MediaWiki?
