Hello

I have a problem with subcluding a Template from one wiki to the other

I have enabled wgEnableScaryTranscluding and set iw_local and iw_trans in the rows associated with my iw_prefix of my interwiki table.

While transcluding with input {{wikiccv:annotations}} works fine subcluding with input {{subst:wikiccv:annotations}} gives this message :

[Template fetch failed for http://82.226.95.82/~wiki/wikiccv/mediawiki/index.php/Template:annotations?a...]

which in turn gives : Forbidden Raw pages must be accessed through the primary script entry point.

I am sorry, I do not understand the meaning of "primary script entry point"

Could someone help ?

Thanks Francois Colonna

Hello Francois,

This error means that raw pages must be accessed through a real URL like "/index.php?title=foo.js", instead of shortened URLs like "/wiki/foo.js" or "/index.php/foo.js". This only seems to apply to JavaScript pages (*.js) on Wikimedia wikis; there might be a configuration setting that changes whether it applies to all raw pages.

Thank you Jesse for your answer.

I got this message when I tried to "subclude" a template from a wiki to another. Here is an example :

{{subst:wikiots:annotations}} gives :

[Template fetch failed for http://82.226.95.82/~wiki/wikiots/mediawiki/index.php/Template:annotations?a...]

Do you have any idea of how to fix it ?

Thanks Francois

If I include a template like {{we:Objective|Think}} the text of the template is included in my page as I had hoped. But:

1. the parameter reference doesn't appear to get substituted, it

renders as {{{1}}} 2. if the template (or other page I try to transclude) includes images, they render as broken images

Try with {{raw:we:Objective|Think}}.

That generates an error message:

Template fetch failed for http://wikieducator.org/Template:Objective?action=raw]

Fetching http://wikieducator.org/index.php?action=raw&title=Template:Objective with wget does appear to give me the raw template (with a MIME type of text/x-wiki).

Is some additional configuration necessary for Mediawiki 1.15.3?

In an attempt to fix the second problem, folks on #mediawiki suggested I setup a foreign file repo. That does allow me to transparently reference images that exist in the main wiki, but does not seem to affect the rendering of images in transcluded templates and pages. (Meaning [[Image:Objective.gif]] works, but if Template:Objective references that image, it is broken when the template is pulled across the interwiki reference above.)

Setting an absolute path for $wgUploadPath in the target wiki would solve this.

Thanks, that fixed the problem with broken images in interlanguage transcluded pages.
