Re: [Mediawiki-l] running PHP scripts in the command line
by Ricardo Rodríguez 14 Oct '06

--- Ricardo Rodríguez Your XEN ICT Team >>> Serých Jakub<Serych(a)panska.cz> 14/10/06 13:20 >>> >You have to install PHP client package. I don't know Suse, but >on Debian the >package is named php5-cli for PHP ver 5. > >Jakub Thanks, Jakub. I've taken a look to the available modules in my box and no php5-* is available here. The point is that the PHP5 I'm using is part of the XAMPP package. So, it seems that this required PHP client is not boundled with it or it exists any other method to run scripts working in a XAMPP environment. Any new input will be welcome! In any case, I'll try to post this question in a XAMPP related forum. Thanks!

images won't show
by Arjen Verweij 14 Oct '06

14 Oct '06

Hi, Maybe I overlook something basic, however, no images will work on my wiki install. All I get to see in the page is: Image:Mediawiki.png When I click on it, I got to the special:upload page, which tells me that uploading of images has been disabled on this wiki. What could cause this? I'm running on mysql, php5 and IIS with mw1.8.2. Regards, Arjen

running PHP scripts in the command line
by Ricardo Rodríguez - Your XEN ICT Team 14 Oct '06

14 Oct '06

Hi all, Luckily I've recently moved to a brand new Linux server to run Mediawiki. The Suse Linux Enterprise Server 9.0 is running XAMPP 1.5.4a including PHP 5.1.6 & 4.4.4. Release 5.1.6 is the startup option. I've initially installed Mediawiki 1.7.1 updating now to 1.8.2. There is an AdminSettings.php file at /opt/lampp/htdocs/mediawiki. It seems that php shell is not available or at least I am not able to find how to run update.php. Before moving to the proposed alternative, phpShell, please, could you point me in the right direction? Is it possible to run php scripts from the command line in such an installation? Thank you so much for your help, Ricardo -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your XEN ICT Team

Getting lengthy Sleep commands on SQL
by Eric K 14 Oct '06

14 Oct '06

I'm running Mediawiki (version 1.6.8) and yesterday I killed a "sleep" process initiated by the MediaWiki software in the MyphpAdmin which had been running for 8 hours. Today I just caught another one (see below) about 3 hours old (approx 10,000 seconds). Any idea whats causing this? I havent been able to get any information on this on the internet, as no one seems to be having this problem. thanks Erik Copy paste from "Show processes" in MyPHPAdmin: Kill 9438726 user100 localhost wikidb Sleep 9698 --------------------------------- How low will we go?

User / Group Access
by Frederich, Eric P2173 13 Oct '06

13 Oct '06

Well, the inevitable has happened. Management wants to put stuff in our Wiki which they only want a select group of people to have access to read or edit. What is the best way to go about this? I have MediaWiki 1.7.1 installed. I don't have the requirements right now but I'm guessing they'll want the following... Multiple groups of people. Certain pages where you have to be with a specific group to view a page. Certain pages where you have to be with a specific group to edit a page. This may be used for a things such as official processes where only the process owner should be allowed to edit the article. Also, I see something happening where another department (we just gave permission for another department to use our Wiki) will want a bunch of articles available only to engineers in that department. For example, say 30 engineers and a couple hundred articles with proprietary information on design philosophies. For this is it possible to use a separate namespace? Can you restrict a namespace to only being read by a group of people? Are these kind of restrictions search safe in that if a page is restricted to a certain group and someone outside that group searches the Wiki he/she won't get any results from restricted pages where it would give a couple sentence preview? Thanks in advance, ~Eric
