Thread:Extension talk:Scribunto/Additional binaries installation

MacOSX 10.8.4 MediaWiki 1.22alpha (8967ed3) 01:48, 13 September 2013 PHP 5.3.15 (apache2handler) MySQL 5.6.10 Lua 5.1.5 Scribunto (32bb3e2) 21:27, 9 September 2013

binary source
http://luabinaries.sourceforge.net/ has LuaBinaries 5.1.4 - Release 2
 * 1) i could not find LuaBinaries 5.1.5.
 * 2) are these binaries therefore incompatible?
 * 3) if so, where do we get additional binaries for Lua 5.1.5?
 * 4) how can i verify that the “additional” binaries are being used?
 * 5) how can i tell which binaries are necessary for certain templates?

binary placement

 * 1) lua5_1_4_MacOS106_bin.tar (could not find MacOS108) contains
 * 2) bin2c5.1
 * 3) lua5.1
 * 4) luac5.1
 * 5) are these the additional binaries?
 * 6) placed them in /root/path/to/extensions/Scribunto/engines/LuaStandalone/binaries/lua5_1_4_MacOS106_bin
 * 7) added the $wgScribuntoEngineConf['luastandalone']['luaPath'] = statement in LocalSettings.php
 * 8) chmod 777
 * 9) on the directory
 * 10) on all files in the directory
 * 11) chown www
 * 12) on the directory
 * 13) on all files in the directory
 * 14) still get “Script error -> Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 126.”
 * 15) changed the path to /root/path/to/extensions/Scribunto/engines/LuaStandalone/binaries/lua5_1_4_MacOS106_bin/lua5.1
 * 16) chmod 755
 * 17) on the directory
 * 18) on all files in the directory
 * 19) chown back_to_the_original_user
 * 20) on the directory
 * 21) on all files in the directory
 * 22) no “Script error”!
 * 23) so i can now place these binaries wherever i wish, even above the extensions directory
