High load on server because of many page requests -- is it possible to leave out apache?
Ahoy,

I've got a problem with my own mediawiki and mwserve combination. My mediawiki runs with apache2 on a small server and its load gets high, as soon as 5 pages are loaded simultaneously: The server is limp. Therefore, the generation of bigger books kills the server.

One solution would be trivial: mw-serve should load the pages directly from the database instead via a http connection. So does the extension pdfbook which I tested: It can generate a 200 page book within seconds.

Any suggestions, how I can leave out the apache2 while giving mw-serve the necessary data?

Bug:Server Problem Generating PDF
Hi everyone, I'm maintaining a wiki for the company I'm working for, and I'm trying to set up the collection extension. Everythings is going fine for creating and saving a book, but as for uploading book as a pdf file or displaying it thanks to PediaPress, the uploading stops at 1% and I have the following eror message : Une erreur est survenue sur le serveur de rendu : RuntimeError: RuntimeError: command failed with returncode 256: ['mw-zip', '-o', u'cache/eb/eb52efc743de7be0/collection.zip', '-m', u'cache/eb/eb52efc743de7be0/metabook.json', '--status', u'qserve://localhost:14311/eb52efc743de7be0:makezip', '--config', u'http://canopy-energy.com/MediaWiki/mediawiki-1.16.0', '--template-blacklist', u'MediaWiki:PDF Template Blacklist', '--template-exclusion-category', u"Exclure lors de l'impression", '--print-template-prefix', u'Imprimer', '--print-template-pattern', u'$1/Imprimer', '--username', u'WIKINOPY', '--password', '{OMITTED}', '--domain', u'https'] Last Output: attern only. 1% creating nuwiki in u'cache/eb/eb52efc743de7be0/tmpQ4gSFr/nuwiki' /home/tools/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/mwlib-0.12.14-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/mwlib/metabook.py:220: DeprecationWarning: deprecated call get('mw_license_url') if l.get('mw_license_url'): /home/tools/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/mwlib-0.12.14-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/mwlib/metabook.py:235:...ect My wiki cannot be edit or read by an '*' unlogged user, and as I keeped the default use of pediawiki server in my local setting I have those two lines : require_once("$IP/extensions/Collection/Collection.php"); $wgCollectionMWServeCredentials = 'WIKINOPY:Password'; I also tryied with $wgCollectionMWServeCredentials = 'WIKINOPY:Password:http://canopy-energy.com'; and as I thought the problem was that the server couldn't log to my wiki I even tryed with all permissions (read, edit...) set to true for unlogged users, but I still have the same eror! Is anyone willing to help me?

openZIM server set up
Hi,

is there anywhere a detailed manual how to set up a server (Ubuntu) for using the Collection extension with the openZIM format? Couldn't find one...
