Database error msg?
by Lyndie Chiou 10 Jul '09

10 Jul '09

Hi, My wiki is located at: http://www.researchpipeline.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Main_Page I just upgraded to mediawiki 1.15.0 from the previous version. When I try to create a new page or click on "recent changes" I get the following error: Database 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 "IndexPager::reallyDoQuery (LogPager)". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'lyndi1_wikidb.mw_tag_summary' doesn't exist (localhost)". I'm a relative newbie. What does this mean? Thanks, Lyndie

Block New Users
by Matthias Korn 10 Jul '09

Hi, can I block the creation of new user accounts based on a user name pattern (preferably REGPEXP or something similar) somehow? This is a targeted anti-spam measure. Thanks, matsch -- Rock in China http://wiki.rockinchina.com/ http://www.rockinchina.com/

Thanks! I had been to that page, but somehow overlooked the obvious admonition that one cannot do what I wanted to do. I did find that the named actual parameter had to be last for some reason. It was being interpreted as SQL otherwise. So this is what ended up working: > {{#tag: > sql2wiki | SELECT * FROM mw_user WHERE user_id = > {{{1}}} | database=EcoReality }} Thanks again for your help, Platonides! :::: Monoculture is where the logic of nature collides with the logic of economics; which logic will ultimately prevail can never be in doubt. -- Michael Pollan :::: :::: Jan Steinman, EcoReality http://www.EcoReality.org ::::

Problems with SQL2wiki extension in template
by Jan Steinman 09 Jul '09

09 Jul '09

I'm having trouble using the SQL2wiki extension in a template. Something seems to be goofy about the use of a parameter. The parameter is not getting the value it is supposed to get, and the MySQL error messages seem to indicate that one of the curly braces is getting stripped off: Here is the template with as simple a query as I could muster; user_id 2 is a valid record: > <noinclude>{{project timelog1|2}}</noinclude> > <includeonly><sql2wiki database="EcoReality">SELECT * FROM > mw_user WHERE user_id = {{{1}}}</sql2wiki></includeonly> and here is what is produced, error messages in front of an empty table: > Warning: mysql_query() [<a href='http://www.mysql.com/doc'>http://www.mysql.com/doc > </a>]: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that > corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use > near '{{1}}}' at line 1 in [full path deleted]/mediawiki-1.13.3/ > extensions/SQL2Wiki.php on line 42 > > [and three subsequent error messages about invalid result resources] >  > <table border=1><tr></tr></table> > > <!-- I don't understand why this is happening, because it was my impression that the template parameter substitution happens before the extension is invoked. Other templates with parameters on this site are working fine, although no other one contains extension tags with a positional parameter between them. I would have contacted the extension author (or started going through the code) fist except for this impression. Any clues?

Mailing List Integrated with MediaWiki
by Waseem Sayegh 09 Jul '09

09 Jul '09

What is the best way to integrate a mailing list with MediaWiki? The aim here is to run a mailing list for a website running MediaWiki where the website subscribers can opt in and out either during registration or afterwards, or register with the mailing list without having an account on the site. Has anyone implemented this? Are there plugins that will help with this setup? Thanks, Waseem

Slow connection
by Ekompute .info 09 Jul '09

09 Jul '09

Hi, I did a new skin and I found out that IE displays the default setting before displaying the layout based on the IEFixes for the skin. This is logical but it makes the display rather awkward for a brief moment. Is it possible to have a conditional statement such that the corresponding default portion of the main.css is not displayed when IE fixes are available? For reference, see JBDirectory.com <http://jbdirectory.com/>, using IE. PM Poon

To post to the list, send mail to <mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>. This is a public list, so you should not include confidential information in mails you send.
