Upload size
by Simon Renshaw 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

Hi, I have a user who tried to upload a 3 MB pdf and got the following error: This file is bigger than the server is configured to allow. I checked LocalSettings and nothing in there mention max upload size. I checked http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Configuration_settings but the only thing I found is to display a warning is a file was too big. I tried to set that parameter to 0 but that didn't work. Is this a PHP limit? Simon

Re: [Mediawiki-l] MediaWiki 1.7.0 and SVG support
by Frederich, Eric P2173 11 Jul '06

I don't know much about SVG, but why would any external program need to rasterize an SVG image. I thought that the whole point of SVG was that it could be scaled very easily and not lose any detail. -----Original Message----- From: mediawiki-l-bounces(a)Wikimedia.org [mailto:mediawiki-l-bounces@Wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Rob Church Sent: Monday, July 10, 2006 2:18 PM To: MediaWiki announcements and site admin list Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] MediaWiki 1.7.0 and SVG support On 10/07/06, Bekki Janssen <bekki.janssen6(a)merseymail.com> wrote: > Does MediaWiki 1.7.0 automatically support SVGs??? Since I resort to shouting RTFM when I want to be a total asshole, allow me to kindly point you to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:%24wgSVGConverter. MediaWiki supports SVG images in as far as you can allow them to be uploaded, and specify an application to use to rasterise them to PNG images; similar to how it can interact with ImageMagick or another converter, to scale images server-side.

changing user name
by Paul Sanderson 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

For various reasons my wiki is closed. A large number of the users had a user name chosen for them by virtue of membership of another site. Some of these uses want to change their user name. Is there a special page that will allow a logged in user to change their user name?

Upgrading from MediaWiki 1.4.5 to 1.6.7 -- Problem resolved....
by khuffman＠NGS.ORG 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

I realized my error almost as soon as I sent the email -- user error (me, specifically). I had uppercase letters for the subdirectory that I was referencing while my upgrade script was looking for an upper/lowercase subdirectory. Hence, the previous message of "No input file specified." So, seems as though the update.php file worked fine for me on version 1.4.5 as well. Thanks, Karen
