Allow edit for a single page
MySQL 5.0 (?)

PHP ??

Mediawiki 1.12.0. - Asset

I managed prevented edit/access of pages for guests like this $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false; $wgWhitelistRead = array ("Forside", "Ophavsret", "Special:Userlogin", "Diskussion:Forside");
 * 1) Restrict anonymous edit
 * 1) But allow this

Is there any way that I can allow talk on "Diskussion:Forside", much like $wgWhitelistEdit (only it don't work any more?)

I think I solved this myself. It is possibel to protect a page - as sysop - and leave the talk page unprotected. Thus I work with tree levels of protection:
 * User/group protection (useing $wgWhitelistRead)
 * namespace - using Extension:Lockdown
 * Sysop protection of specific pages - primary the frontpage of the site

Any suggestions as to making this more simple? --Asset 13:11, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi I just upgraded to 1.12.0 version of MediaWiki from 1.10.0. On the 1.10 version the RSS feed gave the full diff in two columns very comfortable to read in Brief. Since 1.12 only the title of the changes remains. How is it possible to have the full diff within 1.12 version ? I tried the Manual:$wgFeedDiffCutoff but without success. Thanks for your help.

Hi, I got my Mediawiki installed and running yesterday. The problem is that when I try to get to the MAIN PAGE I'm getting a blank page. However if i try to get to any other page it seems to work fine. The main page is visible - only when I log into the system. Thank you

 * Works fine for me. Smaug [[Image:Tournesol.png|20px]] 20:45, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, but the problem continues. I've found a good documentation of the same problem with DRUPAL system Here Ariel

Hi Again,

I want to try and refine the problem described above. Most pages, including the home page in our Wiki load just fine on first click. However, the problem seems to occur on susbequent clicks on the same line or when refreshing the page. This doesn't only happen on the main page but on any other page that is clicked/refreshed more than once. We are lost with this problem and can't go "on air" until we resolve the issue.

We will greatly appreciate assistance with this matter.

Ariel and Alex


 * Again, I do not experience this problem even when refreshing and such. Perhaps it is something to do with your browser settings (which I can not help you with)?  Try to cause the problem from a friend's computer, if you can.  See if it happens the same.  Smaug  [[Image:Tournesol.png|20px]] 17:53, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi Smaug, thanks for your help.

Me and Ariel live on two sides of the pacific and use different computers- but we have the same problem. We have made some progress today in realizing 2 things: 1. Both of us are using Firefox and when we tried our wiki on IE, there was no problem, even after clicking on a link many times (which makes me guess you were trying it out with IE?) 2. In Firefox, this seems to be related to the browser's cache- both me and Ariel tried clearing the cache many times today, and in all cases it fixed the problem once (i.e.- next time I click on a link it will go balnk again, and I will again have to clear the cache). I was hoping that this will give you some new ideas as to the potential soource of the problem?

Have a good one,

Alex & Ariel


 * Yup, I use IE! Good work.  Unfortunately, I don't have experience in Firefox or have an idea about what the problem could be.  Sorry that I can't be of further help.  I'm sure someone else on here will know.  Smaug  [[Image:Tournesol.png|20px]] 13:57, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Legalities of using Wikimedia material

 * MySQL:
 * URL:

OK, so here's my problem. I've got MW 1.11 installed on my server, image uploads configured, extensions added - ParserFunctions, Nuke and Oversight. Soon to add on Makesysop and Checkuser too.

What's the legalities of using material from Meta wikimedia and Wikisource (the one that's en.wikisource.org) under the GFDL and how do I transwiki them into my wiki getting all revisions?? On some Wikimedia projects it says they can't get all revisions via transwiki.

and what's the way in the database to change an offensive signature in old revisions??

I need some help, just trying to learn some stuff on this wonderful new software!

When I click on the link in this page I get 500: Internal Server Error (Sorry, the page you requested is not currently available.

I set the permissions for the config folder to 777 using the cpanel (actually I changed all the parent to 77 to be sure)I don't know what else to try...

I Have checked and php 5 appears to be supported (in cpanel it is listed as a mime TYPE - application/x-httpd-php .php .php4 .php3 .phtml php php3 php4 php5 php6 )and in checking that I just discovered that front-page extensions are installed.

 * Mainly, I'd like to allow users to watch pages. Also, I believe MediaWiki uses email to do things related to user accounts -- informing a user when an account is created for him, and informing a user when his password is reset. I'd like to enable those features also. -TC 7:08, 1 April 2008


 * I continued to research this issue, and I can now answer my own question. First of all, there are lots of posts related to email questions at mwusers.com/forums. From various comments there, I learned that MediaWiki does not require any email configuration; it uses the email configuration of the PHP software. I'm not sure exactly what fixed the problem, but by messing with php.ini and the settings in my SMTP server, I was able to get MediaWiki notifications working. -TC 7:54, 3 April 2008

 * As for the robots.txt file, you can see the Wikimedia robots file here and MW.org's page on that subject. Smaug 15:12, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

PHP wrong version.... but it isn't!

 * MediaWiki: (Reported by your Wiki's Special:Version page) 1.12 - can't get at version page
 * PHP: 5.2.5 (according to php --version)
 * MySQL: mysql  Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.45, for unknown-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.0 (according to mysql --version)
 * URL: MurkWiki

I've just installed mediawiki, all went well, then I started getting referred to this page. I did php --version and I'm on version 5.2.5 with hostmonster I'm trying to run mediawiki latest (1.12) It was working fine for a short while, and then went belly up with "PHP 5.0.x is buggy on your 64-bit system; you must upgrade to PHP 5.1.x or higher. ABORTING. (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=34879 for details)"

I am running 5.1.x or higher, I'm on 5.2.5!

This may be a bug with mediawiki or php - just trying to let someone know.

UPDATE: Running /index.php5 in the browser gets me in again, however... this isn't very elegant...

UPDATE2: I created the file .htaccess in my wiki installation, and added the line: DirectoryIndex index.php5

All seems good now.

By the way, the $wgLogo instructions appear out of date, as there is no longer $wgLogo in the LocalSettings.php

 * The instructions are not out of date. $wgLogo is not in LocalSettings.php, you have to add it in there. Simple. -- Sayuri 12:57, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

MediaWiki keeps redirecting to a non-SSL page from an SSL-page

 * MediaWiki: 1.12.0
 * PHP: 5.2.5 (apache2handler)
 * MySQL: 5.0.51a
 * URL: Local net

I have MediaWiki installed on a FreeBSD machine. The page is accessible from a VirtualHost that is SSL-secured. I can directly access a page like so: https://wiki.local.net/wiki/index.php/Special:Version

but when I do this:

https://wiki.local.net/wiki/

It sends me to http://wiki.local.net/wiki/ which is not found.

Also, when I edit a page and save it, it then forwards me to a plaintext page again. Even when it sends out a email confirmation messages, it gives an http address instead of https (which of course doesn't work)

Any suggestion?

 * MediaWiki: 1.12.0
 * PHP: 5.2.2
 * MySQL: 5.0.45
 * URL: http://www.ohioart2.com/wikimotive

After uploading version 1.12.0, I changed the config dir to 777 and then opened my browser to the main index.php. I got the screen that had the sunflower logo and said "Mediawiki 1.12.0 please setup the wiki first". I clicked the link and then get this: "The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request. The script had an error or it did not produce any output. If there was an error, you should be able to see it in the error log."

From what I can find on searching google this is due to a function not supported by my hosting providers implementation of PHP5. Unfortunately I'm not seeing anywhere that tells me all the settings for PHP5. However I can modify my php.ini so I post it below. Any help would be greatly appreciated, THANKS

Installation seemed okay, but pages load verrrrrrry slowly

 * MediaWiki: 1.6.10
 * PHP: 5.0.2 (apache2handler)
 * MySQL: 4.0.24
 * URL: Biology

The webmaster for our department server did a basic installation of MediaWiki at my request, then turned the files and responsibilities over to me (also at my request). The wiki is operational, but as the header suggests it takes a surprisingly long time to load any page within the wiki (often 10-15 seconds, far longer than either non-wiki pages on our or other servers, and far longer than pages from other MediaWikis, including this one). And when I replaced the 24K Logo image, with a sleeker 7K image, it seems to be taking if anything even longer, often 20-30 seconds. I've spent quite a while poring through the MediaWiki site and haven't found an obvious possibility to even explore. Again, the pages do get loaded. Eventually! Any ideas? Thanks!

—Alan H 15:13, 14 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I thought I added some comments earlier, but maybe I closed the tab before saving.
 * I have two suggestions - 1) Upgrade to a newer version of MediaWiki. The latest version is 1.12.* and there have been some speed improvements. 2) Find out what kind of hardware the site is running on. If it is an older machine or a machine that does many tasks (probably likely for a departmental server), then that may affect the loading speed. --Barista 04:46, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Installation help!
I'm trying to install your product on a Windows 2003 R3 Service Pack 2 server. I have IIS installed, I have installed 1.10.0 software for wiki, I have installed mysql 5.0.45 and php5.2.3. I am unable to bring up the very first page in a browser to set up my settings. I can only read the index.php files through notepad. On the manual it states to accomplish a virtual directory...do I need to do this? I'm confused as how to proceed from here.

Jason


 * MediaWiki: 1.10.0
 * PHP: 5.2.3
 * MySQL: 5.0.45

I have managed to install the software and even get the index.php to read as a web page on my server. I'm using I.E 6.0 (is that a problem?) My Wiki is reporting that magic_quotes_runtime, magic_quotes_sybase and mbstring.func_overload need to be disabled. How does one do this? I'm not getting or able to create a LocalSettings.php file either. Any help would be appreciated.

Jason.

I'm just seeing a blank page

 * MediaWiki: 1.12.0
 * PHP: 5.1.6
 * url: (blank)

The installation page says the software has been installed successfully but the page it should be at  is blank. Any ideas what I need to change?


 * Did you delete the /config directory? Did you move LocalSettings.php from wherever it is to the nlpconnections.com/wiki/ directory?
 * If you have already done this, or do this and it does not work, delete everything and try reinstalling it. If you reinstall, I reccomend choosing a directory other than /wiki/.  If you want to have short urls appear to be in the "wiki" directory, a directory called "wiki" should not exist. Smaug  [[Image:Tournesol.png|20px]] 21:29, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I have deleted those and reinstalled the whole thing twice - same problem every time. 89.243.226.53 12:28, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I've tried it again as now and still the same. The config page says it's been installed successfully and gives a link to the wiki - but the page is blank. Any ideas? 78.147.158.252 13:07, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Localsettings.php is in the wiki directory (it is not automatically put there, you must ftp in and move it)? (I know I already asked this, but you didn't specify that you did it, so I thought I'd check.) Smaug  [[Image:Tournesol.png|20px]] 17:09, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, I moved it into the wiki directory each time I installed it (four times now). I think I have to accept the script doesn't work on my server. 78.147.103.100 14:47, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Same problem, add this line to your LocaleSettings.php (solution is also described above)

$wgParserConf['preprocessorClass'] = 'Preprocessor_Hash';


 * Great advice! Adding this line to LocalSettings.php worked for me too, after 5 "blank page" installations.  I had the blank page problem with MediaWiki v1.12.0 and php 5.2.1. Thanks.

Hi, I recently took over administration of a wiki site and have succesfully managed to install a couple of extensions. Now I'm having no luck at all with HTML enabling extentions and have done some research.

When thinking I should check the defaultsettings.php for errors I couldn't find it at all. Could the old administrator have somehow deleted it but still the wiki is operational?

Could this cause any problems?

Blank Screen after upgrading to 1.12.0

 * MediaWiki: 1.11.1
 * PHP: 5.2.6 (apache2handler)
 * MySQL: 5.0.45
 * URL: on internal network

I upload the new files for 1.12.0 and then run the update.php script

Output of update.php: Depending on the size of your database this may take a while! Abort with control-c in the next five seconds...0 ...have ipb_id field in ipblocks table. ...have ipb_expiry field in ipblocks table.

... Done.

Then when I go to view the site's main page i just get a blank screen and the following line in the error log...

(full path and IP were removed)

Any ideas on how to correct this ? I have reloaded the backups and ran the process again to have the same outcome. Thank you

 * I don't know German, sorry. It seems like whoever manages your server has disabled some PHP functions that MediaWiki needs to work.  Talk to them, and if they are unwilling to change PHP settings, I don't think you will be able to use MediaWiki on that subdomain. <font color="#006500">Smaug  [[Image:Tournesol.png|20px]] 16:12, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Not a valid entry point??
After I installed MediaWiki-1.12.0 in the first step already, I had to straight to config/LocalSettings.php but I got a message "This file is part of MediaWiki and is not a valid entry point." I have tried to solve this problem but it is not fixed. How can I fixed this problem?


 * Are you browsing to http://website/config/LocalSettings.php? You need to move that file wiki/config/LocalSettings.php to wiki/LocalSettings.php and then browse to http://website/index.php.  After you do the installation, the text at the bottom of the page explains this too.  There are only a couple "valid entry points" for MediaWiki.  One is index.php.  Another is api.php.  --Cneubauer 14:58, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

How to declare value of $conf->Sitename?

 * MediaWiki: 1.12.0
 * PHP: 5.2.6
 * MySQL: 5.0.51b

I want to automatically configure a wiki, that is, I don't want the user to have to go through config/index.php page. I can set the input for the forms by adding to the empty quotes. For example, if I want the table prefix to my wiki to be $prefix, then I change $conf->DBprefix= importPost("DBprefix", ""); to $conf->DBprefix = importPost( "DBprefix", $prefix );. For some reason I can't do this for Sitename. Adding anything in the empty quotes of $conf->Sitename = importPost( "Sitename", "" ); gives me a blank page. Can someone please help!??

(RESOLVED) Navigation sidebar lost after moving wiki to new server; all else is fine

 * MediaWiki: 1.11.2
 * PHP: 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.1 (apache2handler)
 * MySQL: 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.1
 * URL: (removed)

Successfully moved this wiki from old to new server using newer version (from Ubuntu 7.10 to 8.04), using steps outlined elsewhere, i.e.


 * 1) install MediaWiki (same version as before: 1.11.2) from ubuntu repository
 * 2) install MediaWiki-math (to get LaTex and math support)
 * 3) initialize MediaWiki using built-in script
 * 4) restore db from mysqldump file (new db, site now under ISPConfig)
 * 5) copy customized files, math, etc. from backups to new wiki

Did not simply wholesale copy all old MW folders over new ones because the simlinks didn't match up (don't know why, but the folder naming has changed from e.g. MediaWiki1.10 to just MediaWiki). Did cp -r for extensions, math, skins, images, and of course copied over LocalSettings.php. Tried this with includes but that made no difference to this problem. It's possible that I've missed a file and thus created the problem:

All the previous functionality came across, except that the navigation sidebar has disappeared. From the page source code, it's not getting written at all.

MediaWiki:Sidebar is present and unchanged:

navigation


 * Main Page
 * Top of E355 Draft
 * ASTM Blue Book
 * Community portal
 * Recent changes
 * Sandbox
 * Help
 * User's Guide

Create new articles type=createarticle prefix=E355: width=18 preload=Template:Preload editintro=MediaWiki:NewDefIntro buttonlabel=Create Definition align=left

The CreateArticle.php extension is in extensions alongside several others that are working.

I've run out of ideas on how to put the nav sidebar back and I'm hoping that you can point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

/var/log/apache2/error.log gets about 10 of these everytime the wiki page is loaded:

[Fri Jun 13 15:55:10 2008] [error] an unknown filter was not added: PHP

Not very helpful except it points towards a php file perhaps (Friday the 13th, no less).

SOLVED I failed to copy over ../Skins/MonoBook.php from the old install, which is customized for the sidebars.
