Invitation to San Francisco MediaWiki hackathon, Jan. 20-22
by Sumana Harihareswara 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

You're invited to San Francisco's first MediaWiki hackathon, January 20-22, 2012. If you're a developer or designer and want to build an application on top of MediaWiki, or using Wikipedia content, please participate in our hackathon in San Francisco (January 20-22 at pariSoma). We'll bring together our senior coders with new developers to build applications running in MediaWiki itself, on mobile devices, or based on Wikipedia's content and data. This is a free event put on by the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit that runs Wikipedia and maintains MediaWiki. You'll get a brief overview of all the key technologies you need, and then you'll have a weekend to build something amazing and make it open source. At the end, show it off and take the next step to get it running on our servers. Join us Friday night for drinks and conversations, and get ready for a weekend of coding. Food and drinks provided. :-) More info: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/San_Francisco_Hackathon_January_2012 Register: http://wikimediahackathon.eventbrite.com/ And feel free to spread the word! -- Sumana Harihareswara Volunteer Development Coordinator Wikimedia Foundation

We're hosting a Wikimedia and MediaWiki hackathon happening 14-16 October 2011 in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/NOLA_Hackathon If you extend, modify, or otherwise hack MediaWiki, then other developers want to meet and collaborate with you. At the event, MediaWiki developers and Wikimedia operations engineers will be working on Wikimedia's gadgets/extensions/tools support, authorization/authentication strategy, dev-ops virtualization, and general training and hacking. And we'll improve and discuss the Wikimedia Labs projects infrastructure http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMF_Projects/Wikimedia_Labs and other stuff that makes it easier for anyone to supercharge Wikimedia with awesomeness. The event is open to anyone who wants to come and contribute, and is an opportunity to spend time with other MediaWiki developers & ops engineers, write beautiful code, and learn about the latest developments. We'll write code together, discuss the software, and hold little workshops. If you can make it to New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, 14-16 October 2011, we'd love to have you. Please add your name to the attendees list: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/NOLA_Hackathon#Attendees Thanks!

LDAP Authentication Extension & Referrals
by Ray Van Dolson 23 Sep '11

23 Sep '11

Am using the LDAP Authentication extension[1] on MediaWiki 1.14 against Active Directory (2008 if it makes a difference). I am looking to allow access to users in subdomains (LDAP referrals). Anyone have this working? Anything I need to be concerned about other than sAMAccountName collisions? Ray [1] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LDAP_Authentication

Bugfix release 1.5.6-1 of SMW+ and the Halo extension now available
by Christof Niemann 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

Hi, on September 14th, the Halo team released SMW+ 1.5.6-1. It is a bugfix release which contains a bunch of compatibility updates and bug fixes as well as some feature improvements for release 1.5.6. We recommend the update for all SMW+ users since the touch up affects core elements like the WYSIWYG extension, the Ontology Browser and administration issues. For example, the WYSIWYG extension in some cases showed errors when switching between wikitext and Richtext mode. This led to unwillingly deleting parts of the markup, producing broken text or - in case of long articles - switching was not possible at all. Another fix is that breadcrumbs are now free of duplicates and images can be provided flawlessly with links to pages using the WYSIWYG extension. Learn more about the latest SMW+ release at the official SMW+ 1.5.6-1 release information. [1] Documentation for SMW+ and the Halo extension can be found as usual in our help section. For downloading SMW+ or Halo please visit our new download page.

Newbie Question.
by John Foster 09 Sep '11

09 Sep '11

I,m cross posting here as this is an enterprise server setup. I have a debian distro mediawiki v.1.15 site on one computer that I want to move to another directory with the newer version mediawiki v.1.17 installed and working from a tarball. Still on the same debian system. i created a new database for the new mediawiki...I want to import/restore the database from the old version to the new one.I exported the database from the old ver. using phpmyadmin, no issue there. When I tried to import it to the new ver. database it errored out saying the file was too big. Any ideas on how to do this? I also have Webmin installed with access to all these same databases, if that helps. Thanks! John

Botched 1.15 to 1.16 upgrade, have backup mysql database folder but not a MySQL dump?
by Ed Sutton 10 Mar '11

10 Mar '11

The Bitnami packages are great for getting started with MediaWiki quickly. Yet when something goes wrong, you have a lot of learning to do, such as learning MySql administration. I have a backup of the entire C:\Program Files\Bitnami WAMPStack\ containing the mysql bitnami_mediawiki database. Is there a way to import the old \mysql\data\bitnami_mantis\ folder into a new install of the Bitnami MediaWiki 1.16-2 module? I confess that I messed up and did not make a MySql dump of the bitnami_mediawiki MySql backup. I thought a directory backup would be good enough. I tried copying the bitnami_mediawiki database, restoring the original LocalSettings.ph, and running update.php but I get an exception when trying to create table interwiki as pasted below. Thanks in advance for any direction, -Ed [root@esutton-vm-rh maintenance]# ../../../../php/bin/php update.php MediaWiki 1.16.2 Updater Going to run database updates for bitnami_mediawiki Depending on the size of your database this may take a while!

LDAP or native auth of wiki users?
by Luzzi, Stephen T ERDC-CERL-IL 26 Aug '09

26 Aug '09

Can someone tell me if mediawiki permits you to use an alternative authentication scheme? I would like to base wiki membership and roles for users and groups on membership information already contained in our intranet portal. Is this possible? Thanks, Steve Luzzi US Army Corps of Engineers
