IP Address search (part of content not logs/user etc)
by Cameron 24 Jul '08

24 Jul '08

Hi All, We are using Mediawiki for technical documentation. As part of this we have device info contained in a table and part of this is the IP Addresses configured. Unfortunately searches don't seem to pick up the ip addresses entered though. If I enter the ip then the search finds no hits. Is there an extension / hack that is required for it to work reliably? I have also tried http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LinkSearch but it only *appears* to find FQDN and not IP based urls? We are running MediaWiki 1.12.0, PHP 5.1.2, MySQL 5.0.26 Below is an exert of part of a table in use (IPs changed) {| style="width:75%; text-align:left" border="1" ! width="30%" bgcolor="#EEEEEE"| ''Configuration Item'' ! bgcolor="#EEEEEE"| ''Setting'' |- ! Device Name | {{PAGENAMEE}} |- | Management IP Address | 10.10.10.1 |- ! Switch port and Switch name for Management interface | Unknown |- ! Production IP Address | 99.99.99.54 |- ! Switch port and Switch name for Production interface | Unknown |- ! Backup IP Address | 10.20.20.1 |- ! Switch port and Switch name for Backup interface | Unknown |- ! Operating System | Windows 2003 SP2 |- |- |} Cheers Cameron

Backup system
by Sheldon Rampton 23 Jul '08

23 Jul '08

Can anyone here give me some suggestions for the best way to back up the database for our website? Originally we used a cron job that did a MySQL dump every evening, but as the size of our wiki has grown, the time needed just to run the dump has grown. It now takes 30-45 minutes, during which time site performance bogs down. We've therefore tried doing live MySQL replication instead to maintain a mirror of the database, but that doesn't seem to work very well. Is there some other approach that we should be trying? ------------------------------------------- SHELDON RAMPTON Research director, Center for Media & Democracy Center for Media & Democracy 520 University Avenue, Suite 227 Madison, WI 53703 phone: 608-260-9713 Subscribe to our free Weekly Spin email: <http://www.prwatch.org/cmd/subscribe_sotd.html> Subscribe to our Weekly Radio Spin podcasts: <http://www.prwatch.org/audio/feed> Read and add to articles on people, issues and groups shaping the public agenda: <http://www.sourcewatch.org> Support independent, public interest reporting: <http://www.prwatch.org/donate>

Short URLs
by Jon Welters 23 Jul '08

23 Jul '08

All, I've managed to get short urls working in the form of http://wiki.com/articlename . However I'm experiancing a slight issue with the fact that for some reason everything works except for system functions such as Logging in or out. I'm assuming there's a scripting variable set wrong. >From LocalSettings.php The URL base path to the directory containing the wiki; ## defaults for all runtime URL paths are based off of this. $wgScriptPath = "http://beta:8000"; $wgScriptExtension = ".php"; $wgScript = ""; #Added for short URL $wgArticlePath = "/$1"; Apache Configuration # allows people to use the old syntax.... surprisingly it works. I still experiencing the same scripting issue with or without this rule Redirect /index.php http://ii:8000 Alias /skins /var/www/beta/skins Alias /index.php /var/www/beta/index.php/ Alias / /var/www/beta/index.php/ Any help would be greatly appreciated. This short URL scheme seems to work pretty well, aside from the obvious issue. -- Thank You and Sincerely, Jon

Upgrade Wikimedia
by Kaiser, Sebastian 22 Jul '08

22 Jul '08

Hi, I've tried to upgrade my wikimedia installation, but I think there is a problem because my database server is not the same as the http. When I run the update.php script via shell I got the answer that there is no connection to the database. The "wgAdminUser and wgAdminPassword" fields in the AdminSettings.php are filled in correctly with the mysql superuser. Do you have any hints? Best regards, Sebastian

using clamav for virus scanning with Mediawiki 1.13alpha
by Darren VanBuren 22 Jul '08

22 Jul '08

I am trying to get mediawiki to have clamscan scan files that are uploaded. Now every file I upload that doesn't have a virus gives this message: Upload warning The file contains a virus! Details: scan failed (code 127) These files check out clean when I run clamscan by my self. However, files WITH a virus are able to be uploaded! Later: My current fix is changing line 310 - 318 of DefaultSettings.php to this: 'clamav' => array ( 'command' => "clamscan --no-summary ", 'codemap' => array ( "127" => AV_NO_VIRUS, # no virus "0" => AV_VIRUS_FOUND, # virus found "52" => AV_SCAN_ABORTED, # unsupported file format (probably imune) "*" => AV_SCAN_FAILED, # else scan failed ), I am working on finding the correct Virus Found code. In addition, here's output of a virus found with clamscan --no-summary : test/clam.zip: ClamAV-Test-File FOUND So we should parse for FOUND on line 320.

hooks on new article / updated article
by GF 21 Jul '08

21 Jul '08

Greetings. i'm currently using ArticleInsertComplete and ArticleSaveComplete. On "update" of an existing article, everything works fine since I have just the call to "articlesavecomplete". On "insert" of a new article, I have a little issue, since both ArticleInsert and ArticleSave are called. Maybe i just have to hook ArticleSave and swich in some way between a "new" or an "update"? Thank you

19 Jul '08

Hi, I am new in theis community (and my english is not that well ;) I am the webmaster of the cooking project of http://www.allekochen.com and I am using the software of mediawiki. I am using this since February 2008 - and there was never a problem with it, but since a few days I have a big problem. When I go to "Recnt changes" I cannot see any changes anymore. There should be by about 500 new changes - but they have gone. The last change I can see is when I enter the upload-section - there the last pic shown here was uploaded on 4th of may. I had this problem once ago but after one day everything was ok again - but now it does not work anymore. I have already asked my server, but they do not have any problem from their side. Is there someone who could help me plz. best regards, Alex L. www.allekochen.com webmaster(a)allekochen.com
