When and how {{NUMBEROFPAGES}} calculates results
by Šerých Jakub 12 Sep '06

12 Sep '06

I'm little bit confused by the {{NUMBEROFPAGES}} variable. When I insert it to article on my MediaWiki server, it shows much less pages, then there is in reality. When I add new article, it is not updated (it is not problem of cached page). Does anybody know how it calculates # of pages, how to refresh it and if it is possible calculate atricle numbers separately in each namespace? Thanks for any help (MW which was moved from the old server to the new one and updated from MW 1.6.8 to MW 1.7 at the same time) Jakub

Help Reqd: Extract Portal:ComputerScience from en wikipedia dump
by Pavan 12 Sep '06

12 Sep '06

Hi All, I want to build a mediawiki site(version:1.6.8) with all computer science related articles from wikipedia dump. I downloaded pages_articles.xml.bz2 sql dump from http://download.wikipedia.org. I looked at both mediawiki and wikipedia documentation for doing this. What i could get from the wikipedia download documentation is that extraction of a particular namespace is possible by perl script. How do i extract only Computer Science Portal related articles? Any help and pointers in this is very much appreciated. -- Thanks and Best Regards, Pavan

MediaWiki 1.7.1 Setup Keeps Going back to Config Page without errors
by Zachary T. Wilson 11 Sep '06

11 Sep '06

Setting up media wiki is driving me crazy! I have tried it a couple different ways, once in my base dir and another in the wiki sub dir. Either way it keeps going back to the config/index.php page without any errors or anything and it doesn't create my LocalSettings.php file. My permissions for the entire dir are set to user.user 777 on all files! The setup says it is ok to run: Checking environment... Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems. * PHP 5.1.6 installed * Found database drivers for: MySQL * PHP server API is apache; ok, using pretty URLs (index.php/Page_Title) * Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support. * PHP is configured with no memory_limit. * Have zlib support; enabling output compression. * Neither Turck MMCache nor eAccelerator nor APC are installed, can't use object caching functions * Found GNU diff3: /usr/bin/diff3. * Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing will be enabled if you enable uploads. * Installation directory: /home/httpd/html/wiki/wiki * Script URI path: /wiki * Environment checked. You can install MediaWiki. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! -Zach

Also, just a follow-up. I am now also getting the following error instead: A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software.

Upload image question
by Dev 10 Sep '06

10 Sep '06

For our site, we are redirecting the user to another page within the insertNewArticle function. But now, when we upload a file, the user is being redirected, which we do not want. Can something be done to avoid re-direction or avoid a call to insertNewArticle for file uploads? Thanks Dev.

localsettings.php not generated
by Gabe Stein 09 Sep '06

09 Sep '06

Hi, I'm installing a mediawiki in an environment with MySQL and PHP 5.0.4. I've tried several times to install, but have not been able to. For this latest test, I chmodded every file in the wiki directory to 777, just to see if I could get localsettings to generate. After configuring the install, the only file in config is the index.php file. There are no error messages - infact, it says the installation is successful. The only other relevant information I can think of is that the wiki folder is two levels out of the root web directory, in /home/user/ public_html/bspgame/wiki. However, the config file reports the correct paths. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Gabe Stein gabe(a)ghscommunications.com

Changing "Special:Search" and "Special:Upload" pages
by Šerých Jakub 09 Sep '06

09 Sep '06

I would like to change the content of the special pages "Upload file" and "Search" on my mediawiki server to something like we can see on Wikipedia (i.e. the "Upload file" page with detailed instructions and licensing model selection, and Search page whith link to create the nonexisting page etc.). I found files SpecialSearch.php and SpecialUpload.php in the "includes" subdirectory and I think, that these files are responsible for these special pages. But I'm not php programmer, so I cannot rewrite these pages. Is there any other way, how to change content of these special pages? Thanks for any help Jakub
