Hi,
I'm trying to use Wikibase on my pool wiki and language wikis.
In my pool wiki, I can create properties and items, but I can't add site
links to them. ID: "Q1", site id: "cswiki", site link: "article name"
gives me the error "The specified article could not be found on the
corresponding site." even though that article exists on cswiki.
I also can't access data from the language wikis. If I use
{{#property:P1}} in an article on cswiki, nothing shows up.
I downloaded Wikidata-refs-heads-master.tar.gz and extracted it to the
extension folder of my pool wiki and language wikis.
My LocalSettings.php of the pool wiki looks like this:
# Wikibase
$wgEnableWikibaseRepo = true;
$wgEnableWikibaseClient = false;
$wmgUseWikibaseRepo = true;
$wmgUseWikibaseClient = false;
require_once __DIR__ . "/extensions/Wikidata/Wikidata.php";
require_once __DIR__ .
"/extensions/Wikidata/extensions/Wikibase/repo/ExampleSettings.php";
# SiteMatrix Extension
require_once "$IP/extensions/SiteMatrix/SiteMatrix.php";
$wgLocalDatabases = array( 'cswiki', 'dewiki', 'enwiki', 'eswiki',
'frwiki', 'huwiki', 'hywiki', 'itwiki', 'nlwiki', 'plwiki', 'poolwiki',
'ptwiki', 'ruwiki', 'srwiki', 'svwiki' );
My LocalSettings.php of the language wikis (cs for example) look like this:
# Wikibase Extension
$wgEnableWikibaseRepo = false;
$wgEnableWikibaseClient = true;
$wmgUseWikibaseRepo = false;
$wmgUseWikibaseClient = true;
require_once __DIR__ . "/extensions/Wikidata/Wikidata.php";
# Settings
$wgWBSettings['repoUrl'] = 'http://pool.mypedia.com';
$wgWBSettings['repoScriptPath'] = '/w';
$wgWBSettings['repoArticlePath'] = '/wiki/$1';
$wgWBSettings['siteGlobalID'] = 'cswiki';
$wgWBSettings['repoDatabase'] = 'poolwiki';
$wgWBSettings['changesDatabase'] = 'poolwiki';
# Optional
$wgWBSettings['siteGroup'] = 'mypedia';
$wgWBSettings['sort'] = 'code'; //optional
$wgWBSettings['sortPrepend'] = array(
'cs'
);
In populateSitesTable.php, I changed
"https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/api.php" to
"http://pool.mypedia.com/w/api.php" and "$validGroups = array(
'wikipedia', 'wikivoyage', 'wikiquote', 'wiktionary','wikibooks',
'wikisource', 'wikiversity', 'wikinews' );" to "$validGroups = array(
'mypedia' );"
Do I need to change "$wikiId = $this->getOption( 'wiki' );" too, since
it says "wiki" is expanded to "wikipedia"?
Table "sites" in the poolwiki database looks like this:
site_id | site_global_key | site_type | site_group | site_source |
site_language | site_protocol | site_domain | site_data | site_forward |
site_config
1 | cswiki | mediawiki | mypedia | local | cs | http:// |
com.mypedia.cs. |
a:1:{s:5:"paths";a:2:{s:9:"file_path";s:5:"/w/$1";s:9:"page_path";s:8:"/wiki/$1";}}
| 0 | a:0:{}
[...]
15 | poolwiki | mediawiki | pool | local | en | http:// |
com.mypedia.pool. |
a:1:{s:5:"paths";a:2:{s:9:"file_path";s:5:"/w/$1";s:9:"page_path";s:8:"/wiki/$1";}}
| 0 | a:0:{}
I changed site_group "wikipedia" to "mypedia" and added data for
site_protocol and site_domain by hand.
I noticed that the script path is "/w/$1" here, while $wgScriptPath in
LocalSettings.php is actually "/w", could that cause any problems?
And should I change site_group of the pool to mypedia like I did with
the language wikis or isn't that necessary?
Wikibase DataModel 0.8, Wikibase Repository 0.5 alpha, WikibaseLib 0.5
alpha and Wikidata show up in Special:Version of the pool wiki.
Wikibase Client 0.5 alpha, Wikibase DataModel 0.8, WikibaseLib 0.5 alpha
and Wikidata show up in Special:Version of the language wikis.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks and cheers,

Hi,
I'm running multiple language wikis and one pool wiki. The problem is
that no file descriptions are fetched in the language wikis although
$wgFetchCommonsDescriptions is set to true.
LocalSettings.php of the language wikis:
$wgUseSharedUploads = true;
$wgSharedUploadPath = 'http://pool.example.com/w/images';
$wgSharedUploadDirectory = '/path/to/pool/w/images/';
$wgHashedSharedUploadDirectory = true;
$wgFetchCommonsDescriptions = true;
$wgSharedUploadDBname = 'poolwiki'; # DB-Name of PoolWiki
#$wgSharedUploadDBprefix = 'wiki_'; # Table name prefix for PoolWiki
$wgRepositoryBaseUrl = "http://pool.example.com/wiki/Image:";
ForeignAPIRepo used to work fine before, but since I switched from
Apache to Nginx, no images show up anymore in the language wikis. This
is how my LocalSettings.php used to look like:
$wgForeignFileRepos[] = array(
'class' => 'ForeignAPIRepo',
'name' => 'pool',
'apibase' => 'http://pool.example.com/w/api.php',
'fetchDescription' => true, // Optional
'descriptionCacheExpiry' => 43200, // 12 hours, optional (values are
seconds)
'apiThumbCacheExpiry' => 0, // required for local thumb caching
);
I also tried to set 'name' => 'poolwiki', (name of the pool database)
but that doesn't work either.
I also re-started Memcached and I even deleted a file description page
from the CloudFlare cache, but still no file description can be seen :/
My software: MediaWiki: 1.22.0
PHP: 5.3.27 (fpm-fcgi)
MySQL: 5.1.70-log
Any help would be über-cool.
Thanks and cheers,

Hi,
having a question to mediawiki 1.23 .
I configured the wiki to authenticate against edirectory. And this is working.
But i cannot login with the local administrator to do some admin tasks...
I turned true the
$wgLDAPUseLocal = true;
parameter. But no success.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Kai
Hi,
Is there a way to embed the login and/or the account creation on normal pages?
I would like to have the possibility to login in a sidebar as long as the user is anonymous. So that there are no extra clicks to login.
I'm sure if there isn't, there is a very good reason for that and I would like to understand that reason.

Hey guys,
I have a new problem on my mediawiki. I'm using mediawiki-1.25.2 (the most
curent).
And when I go to log in I get this message:
*Login error*
Jokefire Wiki uses cookies to log in users. You have cookies disabled.
Please enable them and try again.
Even tho cookies are enabeld in the browser. So far I've tried setting this
in my LocalSettings.php file:
So far I'vr tried adding
session_save_path("tmp");
To my LocalSettings.php and created a /tmp directory in thr MW directory
that's been chmoded to 777.
Still no luck!
Anyone got any ideas on how to solve this error?
Enabled but didnt see anything pertaining to the problem in the debug logs.
Thanks,
Tim

What's this instruction all about, on the page:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family#Multiple_wikis_sharing_co…
They're telling me to set $wgJobRunRate to zero. But they don't say
whether it should stay that way permanently. Now if it does, that means
one of us has to get into the Secure Shell, cd to maintenance, and
execute php runJobs.php at least once every twenty-four hours. Or more
frequently.
To whomever wrote that part of the manual (this is about installing a
family of wikis sharing media resources): are you sure you want to tell
wikifamily admins to do that? Or to set up a big cron job to execute a
bash script? If so, how often would you recommend that, and at what time
(say, with reference to UTC or to the most likely anticipated
geographical cluster of users)?
