Good Afternoon.
We were looking at the MediaWiki software and I was wondering the
following.
1. What are the hardware requirements or recommendations for the
new version 1.10
2. What is the recommended OS? Looks like it runs on LINUX and
Windows.
3. Does anyone have an estimate to the amount of time it takes to
install/configure the server?
4. Are there known issues problems that cause any real problems?
Sorry for all the questions but this is all new to me.
Thanks
Eric
Hey all,
currently we are installing and preparing mediawiki within our company,
but we only have got one problem. On a random notice the following
happens: if you press the save button it says 'This is only a preview;
changes have not yet been saved! ', but the rest of the content is
disappeared. Did anyone else experiance a similar problem and did
someone maybe already find a solution.
For your information, we are using
* Mediawiki 1.11.0
* PHP 5.2.4 (apache2handler)
* MySQL: 5.0.45-community-nt
* Windows Server 2003/2000 (we tried it on both O/S)
Thanks for your time and help in advance,

Hello everyone!
If I need to migrate a MediaWiki installation from one machien to another,
how do I go about that task?
In other words:
1) Is there an established procedure?
2) If so, where is it described?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,

Hi all,
I just made an interesting discovery: When I call my wiki from a browser
running on the actual server, the appearance is dependent on the adress I
use: If i call the wiki using localhost (htp://localhost/wiki/), the field
titles ("seite", "navigation", "suche", "werkzeuge") all begin with lower
case letters. When I call the wiki using the fully qualified domain name
(XXX.rockwellcollins.com/wiki/) all these titles begin with an uppercase
letter ("Seite", "Navigation" and so on).
Does this has something to do with mediawiki? And is this a bug or a
feature?

Hi everybody,
a SysAdmin in my company has attempted to migrate our Mediawiki
installation from a Windows server to a Linux one, but discrepancies
are arising between the contents of the two.
Specifically, while many pages work just fine, hinting to a mostly working
installation, but many other pages result into blank browsers, no matter
if they should have been carried over as normal by the MySQL-dump that
has been used to transfer the DB.
The only difference I can think of between the failing pages and those
that work is that the former had been originally generated via XML imports
and transclude subpages. (*)
Is this something that could represent a problem? And is there a page
on mediawiki.org that I could recommend to our SysAdmin to go through?
Thank you in advance.
Manu
(*) The rationale behind this was to use the XML import function
to procedurally generate the subpages while the users retain the
capability to edit the bits of the actual page that do not rely on
transclusion of the subpages.
Thanks. When I added $articleID= Parser::getArticleID(); to my extension
code, I got a blank page.
I guess I need to declare some other global variable or so... Wht should
be that?
Regards,
Jack

Parser::getArticleID(), or something like that. A new page will have an
ID of 0, existing pages will have positive IDs. (I think.)

I believe that CategoryTree, which we use, will show articles as well as
categories. It is all in the 'mode' switch
<!-- Right Cell Contents -->
<categorytree mode="all" depth="3" style="float:left; clear:left;
margin-left:1ex; border:1px solid gray; padding:0.7ex;
background-color:white;">ACTIVE</categorytree>
|}
<!-- End Right Cell -->

Hi,
I think my further experiments with Treeview got some success in
manually creating the hierarchy with page links.
But with the CatTree template, it seems only 2-levels are possible-that
also will list only categories, not articles.
Anyone has some better idea on this?
Regards,
Jack

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Creating a hierarchical tree view
Hi,
I want to create a page with clickable tree, like
-Operating systems (category)
-Proprietary (category)
-Windows (article)
-Open Source (category
-Linux (article)
I tried treeview extension, but that fails if I give wiki links to the
article/category in the tree. There is CatTree template also in the DPL
site (http://semeb.com/dpldemo/index.php?title=Treeview_extension) but
that also lists categories as trees, not articles in that.
How can I achieve this with MW 1.11

Hi,
is there a possibility to convert strings (out of an inline query with smw) into numbers (if string just contains numbers) to make calculations with the {{#expr:...} function?

Hello,
A quick question... How is it that a link to Special:Emailuser appears
in the toolbox for pages in the user namespace if you are logged in,
but the link doesn't appear if you are logged out?
Why doesn't the same happen for Special:Upload? (They are both special
pages that only logged-in users can view, although the Special:Upload
link appears on pages in all namespaces.)
thanks,
Brianna
