It gives me the error There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. Please hit "back" and reload the page you came from, then try again.</p> <p>You may view and change the protection level here for the page Roan Kattouw-2 wrote:

Use api.php?action=protect , not index.php?action=protect , and make sure you're passing login cookies correctly. Roan Kattouw (Catrope)

Hello, I get the same error message when i try to login to my personal mediawiki using at my company. I tried to login with opera, firefox, google chrome. It worked all three times but when I'm trying to login with Internet Explorer 8 i get this error message: "There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. Please hit "back" and reload the page you came from, then try again." Im using a Windows 2000 PC as Webserver with XAMPP 1.6.8: ###### ApacheFriends XAMPP (Basispaket) version 1.6.8 ###### + Apache 2.2.9 + MySQL 5.0.67 (Community Server) + PHP 5.2.6 + PHP 4.4.9 + PEAR + PHP-Switch win32 1.0 (use "php-switch.bat" in the xampp main directory) + XAMPP Control Version 2.5 from www.nat32.com + XAMPP Security 1.0 + SQLite 2.8.15 + OpenSSL 0.9.8i + phpMyAdmin 2.11.9.2 Do you have any idea what the reason could be? Thank you very much!

New subject: Redirect does not provide any actual image info for "action=query&prop=imageinfo"

Hi, I just noticed that if you use the "redirect" option with the "action=query&prop=imageinfo" API, it does provide a <redirects> element as expected, but there's no image info? You need to do a new query with the redirected image name to retrieve it. I think this is different behavior from "redirect" in the other APIs, where it provides the info with the redirect at the same time. Is this a bug or expected? http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=imageinfo&title… <?xml version="1.0"?> <api> <query> <redirects> <r from="File:Liberia court of arms.png" to="File:Coat of arms of Liberia.png" /> </redirects> <pages> <page pageid="23044582" ns="6" title="File:Coat of arms of Liberia.png" imagerepository="" /> </pages> </query> </api> http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=imageinfo&title… <?xml version="1.0"?> <api> <query> <pages> <page pageid="23044582" ns="6" title="File:Coat of arms of Liberia.png" imagerepository="local"> <imageinfo> <ii timestamp="2009-06-01T14:04:00Z" size="14121" width="200" height="211" thumburl="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/12/Coat_of_… thumbwidth="121" thumbheight="128" url="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/12/Coat_of_arms_of_Lib… descriptionurl="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Coat_of_arms_of_Libe… metadata="" mime="image/png" /> </imageinfo> </page> </pages> </query> </api> -Pierre ________________________________ Pierre-Olivier Latour pol(a)cooliris.com
