RESOLVED $wgUseSharedUploads causes trouble

Till Kraemer (talkcontribs)

Hi...

I'm running four interwikis sharing one pool wiki for the media files. After upgrading from 1.16 to 1.17 I'm getting an error, when I set $wgUseSharedUploads = true; in the LocalSettings.php of each interwiki.

Here is the error:

Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() expects parameter 2 to be resource, null
given in /html/wiki/en/w/includes/db/DatabaseMysql.php on line 318

Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() expects parameter 2 to be resource, null

A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the

It's very brutal, because no images show up, except for the pool wiki. I'm about to try MW 1.18 alpha, because I have no idea how to fix this and I really need the images.

Any help is more than appreciated!

Thanks + cheers,

P.S.: Is it possible to downgrade from 1.17 to 1.16? And if so, do I have to change the databases in some way?

If needed I could walk you through on how to use it, but it's probably easiest to use $wgForeignFileRepos since the SharedUploads method has been deprecated (although it should still work).

You may also come by on IRC to ask for help.

Thanks for your help!

I added the following to LocalSettings.php:

$wgForeignFileRepos[] = array(
    'class' => 'ForeignDBRepo',
    'name' => 'pool',
    'url' => "http://pool.domain.com/w/images",
    'directory' => '/html/wiki/pool/w/images/',
    'hashLevels' => 2, // This must be the same for the other family member
    'dbType' => $wgDBtype,
    'dbServer' => $wgDBserver,
    'dbUser' => $wgDBuser,
    'dbPassword' => $wgDBpassword,
    'dbFlags' => DBO_DEFAULT,
    'dbName' => 'pool_db_username',
    'tablePrefix' => '',
    'hasSharedCache' => false,
    'descBaseUrl' => 'http://pool.domain.com/w/index.php/Image:',
    'fetchDescription' => false
);

...and ended up getting the same error :(

I also tried to use LocalRepo:

$wgForeignFileRepos[] = array(
   'class'                    => 'LocalRepo',
   'name'                     => 'pool',
   'url'                      => 'http://pool.domain.com/w/images',
   'hashLevels'               => 2, // This must be the same for the other family member
   'pathDisclosureProtection' => 'paranoid',
   'descBaseUrl'              => 'http://pool.domain.com/wiki/Image:',
   'scriptDirUrl'             => 'http://pool.domain.com/w',
   'fetchDescription'         => true, // Optional
);

...but no images showed up :|

I'm gonna try to find you on #MediaWiki.

Thanks + cheers,

This is my config. and it works perfectly. Hope this helps.

$wgForeignFileRepos[] = array(
   'class'                   => 'ForeignAPIRepo',
   'name'                    => 'shared',
   'apibase'                 => 'http://You're site.whereever/w/api.php',
   'fetchDescription'        => true, // Optional
   'descriptionCacheExpiry'  => 43200, // 12 hours, optional (values are seconds)
   'apiThumbCacheExpiry'     => 43200, // 12 hours, optional, but required for local thumb caching
);

I was scared to use ForeignAPIRepo, because it says "Access through ForeignDBRepo is faster than through ForeignAPIRepo", but you're right, it works perfectly. Thanks a lot! Cheers,
