We run multiple MediaWiki servers, and we use Puppet software to automate the server
configuration. There are other comparable solutions as well, like Chef.

Subject: [MediaWiki-l] Server setup scripts
Hi everybody!
Is there anyone here who has ever set up more than two servers? I am curious about what
you may have thought of or done in terms of automating the process. for example getting
the sudoers file the way you want it.
Adding your public key. Configuring your bashrc file. You know, all the little things you
do to make the server yours. Not necessarily software installation although that could be
done also.
I am looking for something a little bit more powerful than simply writing down on a piece
of paper every single command I enter and then following my notes for the next server I
set up.
Maybe there is a method of running some sort of diff between the two servers that would
focus only on the kinds of things a server admin would do the first day, and not
necessarily every single difference between every single file, which would of course be
overwhelming.

Either update MediaWiki to master (not for production!) or use the
suitable (not master) WikiEditor version.

Hi,
I ran
|git clone
https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-WikiEditor.git<https:/…
and removed the contents of the existing folder
//localhost/extensions/WikiEditor/ in my local Wiki installation
replacing it with the contents of the Github download. I noticed
WikiEditor quit working then so I ran the update script in the hope
of
getting it to work again:
||php update.php
and now WikiEditor isn't working (i.e., it isn't showing in the edit
window). This (
http://i.imgur.com/9nQvBry.png<http://i.imgur.com/9nQvBry.png>) is a
screenshot
showing
the Chrome JavaScript console when viewing an
edit page (i.e., one
with ?action=edit in the address bar). Edittools isn't showing either
(i.e., the box containing insertable symbols
[enabled by the
charinsert extension below the edit box), if any further info is
required for you to help me with this problem, please ask. If you
want
a ngrok tunnel opened please do ask and I'll
open it as soon as I see
the message (and I will send a reply confirming
this), it's just odds
are it'll only be possible for me to open it
for a few hours at a
time
so if you ask me be prepared to do all you need
with it immediately
after sending the request for me to open it.
Thanks for your time,
Brenton
