Thanks for the tip, Jamie. That didn't appear to help though :(

If I point a browser to the main page and click on any links off the main page, I still get a URL with /mediawiki in it:

Am I running the script incorrectly? I put my mysql root user and password in the AdminSettings.php to be on the safe side incase the other user didn't have the access.

Hello,

 I had mediawiki 1.4.6 installed on a machine which just had the

mediawiki directory hanging off the webserver documentroot. I moved this to a production server and onto a vhost and changed my LocalSettings.php over, but all my links are still broken and I'm not sure why.

I copied the database as per http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ How_to_move_a_MediaWiki_Database without issue. I can get to the main page of my installation, no problem but whenever I try to click on any of the links which were copied with the database from the old server, the URL has /mediawiki in it, even though LocalSettings.php has: $wgScriptPath = "";. I'm somewhat stumped. From what I've read, it should be as easy as making sure the $wgScriptPath variable is set correctly, but I may be horribly wrong and there may be something else quite involved that I'm missing.

Any ideas? _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l@Wikimedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l

I get the error message, so I'm using the LocalSettings.php.

in localsettings.php, add this: die('This is localsettings.php with no scriptpath in it');

When you go to any page on your wiki, it should print that message and no more. (remove it when you're done.)

If this doesn't happen, it means you're using a different localsettings.php.

rebuildall.php would not help in this situation.

Old URLs still in the parser cache can be cleared by:

DELETE * FROM objectcache;

to clear the objectcache table in MySQL.

Note that the browser cache may still contain bogus data. You can use ?action=purge on indidivual pages to update their cache dates. Also there is a global $wgCacheEpoch variable which can be set in LocalSettings.php to invalidate all prior cache entries (see DefaultSettings.php).

I had the same problem as the OP, and setting wgCacheEpoch did not seem to work for me (or maybe its effect was only delayed, due to some timezone issue...). As my wiki is quite small, I wrote a script to request all wiki pages with ?action=purge.

In a nutshell, the following commands should do the trick:

host=http://wiki.my.org wiki=/wiki/

wget -qO- "${host}${wiki}Special:Allpages" | sed -re '/start content/,/end content/p' -e 's/href="([^"]+)"/\nGREPME:\1\n/g' | sed -nre 's/^GREPME:(.*)$/\1/p' | grep "^${wiki}" | while read page do wget -O/dev/null "${host}${page}?action=purge" done

Here is the complete script, with some boilerplate command line processing.

#! /bin/bash # mwpurgecache - invalidate mediawiki cache

set -e

PROG=$(basename $0) VER=0.1

function version() { echo "$PROG $VER - invalidate mediawiki cache Copyright (c) 2005 Claudio Jolowicz claudio@jolowicz.com

Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice and this notice are preserved. This programs comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTEE. " }

function usage() { version echo "Syntax: $PROG [options] [--] [pages]

Options:

-H, --host host name (default: localhost) -w, --wiki WIKI server path to wiki (default: /wiki/) -u, --user USER username for HTTP authentication -p, --passwd PASS password for HTTP authentication -d, --dryrun show commands without executing them -q, --quiet quiet (no output) -v, --verbose be verbose (print server response) -h, --help display this message -V, --version display version information

Options and arguments must be separated by whitespace. WIKI must match wgArticlePath, such that $wgArticlePath = "WIKI/$1". WIKI must not contain regex special characters.

This script requests all wiki pages listed on the command line by HTTP, prefixed by the wiki path, appending `?action=purge' to the URL. If no pages are specified, it retrieves the list of all pages from Special:Allpages.

Examples:

$ $PROG Main_page Help:Contents $ $PROG -H wiki.my.org -w /mediawiki -u joe -p banana $ $PROG -H wiki.my.org --dryrun | wc -l " }
