I am running multiple MediaWiki 1.10.0 instances on a shared Linux hosting
service. I am testing out having each instance point to a single set of
source code, using the instructions at
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family. I had no success with
Scenario 2. Scenario 1 (symbolic links to source code files and
directories) seemed to work nicely, with minimal changes. However, I
found that I could not upgrade using this method. 'upgrade.php' fails
because it cannot find 'LocalSetting.php'. It appears that when
'commandLine.inc' fetches the current directory, it gets back the source
code directory, not the symbolically linked directory under the Wiki
instance. This was reported in
http://www.steverumberg.com/wiki/index.php/WikiHelp#Upgrading and a bypass
suggested.
Does anyone have suggestions on the best way to have multiple Wikis point
to one set of source code and be able to upgrade painlessly? Copying the
LocalSettings.php file into the source code directory seems somewhat risky
if/when memory fails...
Thanks, Norbert
If I search for a title like 'client*' where an existing page has a title of
'clientgroup' I get 'There is no page titled "client*".* * You can create
this page.' I then get a listing of page text matches. Is there a way to
enable a wildcard search on page titles?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
Can anybody please help me with the problem discussed below?

Jack

Hi,
No, there is no wgsmtp setting in my localsettings.php
Does this has to do something with smtp authentication?
Bcs, the linux server on which MW is running don't have a mail server.
Our mail server is Exchange server.
I wrote a small script as follows:
<?php
$email="jackec(a)suntecgroup.com";
$send=mail($email,"Test","Hello Jack");
if ($send) {
echo "Mail sent";
}
else {
echo "Error";
}
?>
When I call this, I'm getting the message "Mail sent", but no mail
actually reaches-both on Windows and Linux. (I'm not a programmer. So
not sure, whether the script itself is wrong :) )
Regards,
Jack

Were you previously using PEAR::Mail, which would be the case if
$wgSMTP has been defined in LocalSettings.php? This is a common setup
under Windows, since PHP's mail() function outright sucks on that
platform, but it's not usually needed under Linux, where PHP and the
mail transfer agent work together pretty well.
If $wgSMTP is present in LocalSettings.php, comment it out and see if
it makes a difference.

Alternatively, you can put the .htaccess file with the change in only the
directory of your new Mediawiki installation - this way it only counts for
this directory and below, leaving the other installation alone.
And don't forget to put this in:
php_flag register_globals 0
All the best,

TableEdit 0.5 should (I hope) fix problems with MW1.10.0. I was
using the wrong way to get the pageID of the page containing the
table, which caused all kinds of problems. I also fixed a minor
formatting bug while editing table headings.
For those who have not seen this already, TableEdit is an extension
that creates a forms-based special page for editing tables. The
table content is also stored in a lightweight external mysql database
(which can support multiple wikis).

Hi
I have a problem with the purge request from MediaWiki :
when it send a request to purge an image, there is a big delay (~1 seconde per
image on a page oO), I have checked my Apache & Squid logs and I have found that
MediaWiki try to purge a thumb of each image... but the thumb doesn't exist.
I think (not sure) my problem come from the latency caused by the 404 error...
but I don't know how to resolve this. Have you an idea?
Squid log example (purge request for a 64x64px image - not rescale):
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - - [27/May/2007:09:56:47 +0200] "PURGE
http://mydomain.tld/w/images/thumb/7/7b/Image.png/64px-Image.png HTTP/1.0" 404
109 TCP_MISS:NONE
PS: sorry my english is bad - I'm french ^^
Thanks for the help Rob and Tels...
I managed to upgrade successfully (according to the ssh, anyway), but
when I actually try and go to my Wiki, I get an "infinite redirect"
message. Clearing my cache of cookies does nothing, so I'm wondering
what I can do to resolve this... (I already checked into my cookies
setting to make sure my browser will accept cookies from my Wiki, and
while I didn't find a cookie for my site, there's nothing BLOCKING it
from accepting one-- I have it set to accept cookies from sites).
Also, what does this line do: php_flag register_globals 0 ?
I've read and re-read all the documents (readme, install, upgrade,
release notes), but nothing seems to pertain to this. I have a feeling
there's a really simple (and I'll be stupid for not seeing it) solution,
but I can't think of it. All my searches were coming up nil for this
version of MediaWiki.
If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it-- it'll be nice to be up-to-date
for once!
