Control de cambios en mediawiki
by Miquel 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

Hola Buenos días, Antes de nada saludar a la comunidad de MediaWiki y dar las gracias por su aportación. Quisiera saber si es posible y como se podría hacer, un sistema de validación de cambios de las modificaciones que los usuarios realicen sobre la wiki. Es decir, que los administradores de la wiki tengan una página de cambios realizados y puedan validarlos y que una vez validados se introduzcan en la base de datos. No sé si me he explicado bien. Muchas gracias. Saludos.

Zugänge Verwalten - Passwort zurücksetzen
by sven s. 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

Moin moin, kennst jemand von Euch die Möglichkeit, wo ich für meine User das Passwort zurücksetzen kann ?? Am liebsten währe es mir in der Datenbank. Soll natürlich für die Benutzer sein, die keine Mailadresse eingetragen haben um die "Passwort vergessen" Funktion zu nutzen. Ich komme mit den Befehlen auf den Manual-Seiten nicht ganz klar. Warum auch immer, funktionieren sie nicht. Gerade was die Benutzergruppen betrifft. Ich freue mich auf hilfreiche Antworten. Gruß Sven

MediaWiki security update: 1.15.1 and 1.14.1
by Tim Starling 13 Jul '09

13 Jul '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 This is a security and bugfix release of MediaWiki 1.15.1 and 1.14.1. A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was discovered in [[Special:Block]]. Only versions 1.14.0, 1.15.0 and release candidates for those releases are affected. Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities allow an unprivileged attacker to gain administrator access to the wiki by tricking an administrator into viewing a page which emits a malicious script. The malicious script may also be able to gain privileged access to other applications on the same domain. Other changes in these releases: 1.15.1: * Fixed fatal errors for unusual file repository configurations, such as ForeignAPIRepo. * Fixed the "change password" link on Special:Preferences to have the correct returnto parameter. 1.14.1: * (bug 17737) Fixed russian URLs for Special:BookSources * (bug 17713) Using links with only an anchor no longer add an dummy entry in the pagelinks table * (bug 17897) Fixed string offset error in <pre> tags * (bug 17832) Fixed action=delete returning 'unknownerror' instead of 'permissiondenied' when the user is blocked * Fixed performance regression when accessing deleted (archived) files Upgrade FAQ: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ#Upgrading ********************************************************************** 1.14.1 ********************************************************************** Download: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.14/mediawiki-1.14.1.tar.gz Patch to previous version (1.14.0), without interface text: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.14/mediawiki-1.14.1.patch.gz Interface text changes: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.14/mediawiki-i18n-1.14.1.patch.gz GPG signatures: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.14/mediawiki-1.14.1.tar.gz.sig http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.14/mediawiki-1.14.1.patch.gz.sig http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.14/mediawiki-i18n-1.14.1.patch.gz… Public keys: https://secure.wikimedia.org/keys.html ********************************************************************** 1.15.1 ********************************************************************** Download: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.15/mediawiki-1.15.1.tar.gz Patch to previous version (1.15.0): http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.15/mediawiki-1.15.1.patch.gz GPG signatures: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.15/mediawiki-1.15.1.tar.gz.sig http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.15/mediawiki-1.15.1.patch.gz.sig Public keys: https://secure.wikimedia.org/keys.html -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkpbgkoACgkQdWgrCOij/sRAOgCgwk2XTXrxMkRrxsxNsAZj2EGK CC0AoJ78EAOW0rGxs+K1NjFO59XfS1RS =ZcRE -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Re: [Mediawiki-l] MediaWiki-l Digest, Vol 70, Issue 20 Re:Erros
by mihai 13 Jul '09

13 Jul '09

Why do I have to restore a database backup? I repeat my previous issue, this message appears in 2 special pages ( http://enciclopediaromaniei.ro/wiki/Special:Lonelypagesand, http://enciclopediaromaniei.ro/wiki/Special:Deadendpages<http://enciclopediaromaniei.ro/wiki/Special:Deadendpages.> ): A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: (SQL query hidden) from within function "". MySQL returned error "1104: The SELECT would examine more than MAX_JOIN_SIZE rows; check your WHERE and use SET SQL_BIG_SELECTS=1 or SET SQL_MAX_JOIN_SIZE=# if the SELECT is okay (localhost)". Except for those 2 special pages, the entire mediawiki site works well.

Upgrading from 1.13.1 to 1.15.0
by Jord.ROLLAND-DE-RENGERVE＠ext.ec.europa.eu 13 Jul '09

13 Jul '09

Hi all, I upgraded my wiki after full backups from 1.13.1 to the 1.15.0 quaterly release. I tested some of the features and when trying to view the history i get the following error A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: (SQL query hidden) from within function "ChangeTags::listDefinedTags". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'idt.mw_valid_tag' doesn't exist (localhost)". When setup to my previous php version with the migrated mySQL DB the history feature works fine. 2 questions: * Is it safe to put back my WIKi version 1.13.1 running on the migrated DB * How to fix the issue with the history feature ?
