Good Evening, I seem to have run into several problems on a wiki that I'm running. I have beening having several issues with http://database.obsidianfleet.net/wiki/index.php?title=Special:SpecialPages . Even thought I am using error_reporting( -1 ); ini_set( 'display_errors', 1 ); The pages is still blank and I am running in a problem on how to bring it back. If someone would be able to help me with this that would be great. Another issue I am having is that after creating a User Account, the account is suppose to be able to be made a User, however there is no way for me to check the box since it seems to have disappeared and the user is not auto-assigned to that group. I would like to thank you all in advance for you help on these issues. -- Stefen Moss

Solve one problem at a time. So... What version of MW, PHP, Etc? Did you upgrade MW or your host upgrade PHP? Check your actual PHP error log if errors aren't visible Tom

CPanel or look in the root directory above public_html or hdocs. Assuming you're running it on a host. Tom

Looking over the error log after getting in contact with the person that is hosting it the following appears the most: [24-Jan-2015 03:05:03 America/New_York] PHP Warning: mysql_connect() [<a href='function.mysql-connect'>function.mysql-connect</a>]: User obsidian_www already has more than 'max_user_connections' active connections in /home/obsidian/public_html/classes/database.php on line 60 On Wed, Feb 4, 2015 at 5:57 PM, Tom <tom(a)hutch4.us> wrote:

I would guess that that message is unrelated to this problem. This issue seems to have started appearing in 1.22: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project_talk:Support_desk/Fatal_error… https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2014-June/076865.html Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any solutions other than "upgrade PHP".

I'm a little confused here. Do you mean "be able to be made an admin"?

I can recommend to my host that we try to see about upgrading the PHP. As I have stated before another issue I am having is that after creating a User Account, the account is suppose to be able to be made a User, however there is no way for me to check the box since it seems to have disappeared and the user is not auto-assigned to that group. When an account is created, the account does not get placed in the user group called Users and as such the newly created account is able to do any edits. I have these in my LocalSetting.php // Implicit group for all visitors $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createaccount'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['read'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['edit'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createpage'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createtalk'] = false; // Implicit group for all logged-in accounts $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['move'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['read'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['edit'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['createpage'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['createtalk'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['upload'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['reupload'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['reupload-shared'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['minoredit'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['purge'] = false; // can use ?action=purge without clicking "ok" $wgGroupPermissions['user']['editmyusercss'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user']['editmyuserjs'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user']['viewmywatchlist'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user']['editmywatchlist'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user']['viewmyprivateinfo'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user']['editmyprivateinfo'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['user']['editmyoptions'] = true; // Bureaucrat users' rights assignments $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['userrights'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['move'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['movefile'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['move-subpages'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['move-rootuserpages'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['delete'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['deletedhistory'] = true; // can view deleted history entries, but not see or restore the text$wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['editprotected'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['skipcaptcha'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['createaccount'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['protect'] = true; On Thu, Feb 5, 2015 at 5:43 PM, Benjamin Lees <emufarmers(a)gmail.com> wrote:

That error sounds unrelated and yes it sounds like an update of PHP is needed. Hard to fix user issue if Special pages aren't working. All registered users are in the user group. If you can get to it. Register a test user and look in this list. /wiki/Special:ListUsers If no test user shows I'm wondering if your DB has issues. Or your host has terrible limits for db usage. Could explain the error. Tom
