status.toolserver.org script source
by James R. 29 Jun '08

29 Jun '08

Hi all, I just wondered if anyone had the source code to the script similar to the one at http://status.toolserver.org/ where you can update the status from a textbox form. I apologise if this is the incorrect place to ask, but seeing it has something to do with the Toolserver, I thought I should send it here where river or another ts-admin could view it. Thanks in advance. Regards, James R.

Cross-namespace interlanguage links support : Please update your pywikipedia local copy !
by Nicolas Dumazet 23 Jun '08

23 Jun '08

Hello all ! Some Wikimedia projects have been using custom namespaces for some articles, such as the Spanish 102 (Anexo) namespace, used for lists. This created interwiki links between articles with different namespace numbers (cross namespace interlanguage links). This feature was not yet supported in interwiki.py, where a mismatch between two interwiki namespaces caused the link to be removed from the home wiki when using -force ( http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sailing_at_the_2000_Summer_Olympi… for example). Since revision 5614, these links are fully supported. We are concerned about consistency between bots running older versions of our framework, and bots using a version newer than r5614, since this may cause links to those special namespaces to be removed by the former while the latter could insist on adding them, leading to unnecessary confusion. ** In short ** : All interwiki.py users, please update your local copy of our framework to a version newer than revision 5614. The latest snapshot available ( at http://toolserver.org/~valhallasw/pywiki/ ) includes those recent changes, if you don't use SVN. Thanks for your time, -- Nicolas Dumazet — NicDumZ [ nIk.d̪ymz ] Deuxième année ENSIMAG.

new stable server
by River Tarnell 22 Jun '08

22 Jun '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 this mail only applies to people with projects on the stable server. hi, the new stable server is now ready. all accounts and projects have been added on the new server, and web hosting is enabled for projects which need it. home directories have not been copied. to migrate your project, copy any files you need from old stable (stable.ts.wikimedia.org) to new stable (stable.toolserver.org), then start your tools as normal (if appropriate). once you have migrated, ask me to add an HTTP redirect from the old URL to the new URL. there is no deadline for migration, but i would like to shut down old stable within two months. - river. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (SunOS) iEYEARECAAYFAkhezcgACgkQIXd7fCuc5vKRjgCgqyfeIRIBcvji5+FDgC53VpY/ z5MAn0R0tMoie9GQtJuoavBbUsgzS2Rq =fXc2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

I see... I tested with wget, and it worked. I tested with lynx, an I also got a 403. Puzzeled me a bit, but then I found out that lynx (and PHP) use IPv6, and I had only whitelisted the IPv4 address :) It should work now. Cheers, Daniel

new login server
by River Tarnell 21 Jun '08

21 Jun '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 hello, the new login server (nightshade.toolserver.org) is now ready for use. this server is for everything except web serving. all your bots, tools, etc. must now be run here. the login alias 'login.toolserver.org' will be updated shortly. this might cause host keys warnings from your SSH client. the fingerprints of the new server are: RSA: 81:64:c8:f8:29:d1:ed:d7:b5:96:7a:5c:fa:d3:f5:61 DSA: e2:4a:07:58:36:ec:9c:0a:73:b4:f8:49:8f:ff:1a:d0 /home is shared between both servers, so there is no need to copy any files over. http://toolserver.org/ URLs still point to hemlock. if you find any problems with the new server, please file a bug at <https://jira.toolserver.org> in the Toolserver project. after 1 week from today (June 19), we will start killing all tools which run on hemlock. - river. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (SunOS) iEYEARECAAYFAkhZnT0ACgkQIXd7fCuc5vL/XQCgsnEhOZ8xpvz4FxDi7ORAeSi/ iHUAoJfi1svrS9XnXz94Fb7SIS0NtRmj =YQmA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Maybe problems with php-scripts
by DaB. 17 Jun '08

17 Jun '08

Hello all, the last debian-update changes some config-option for suphp (we use suphp to run php-scripts in the context of the owner instead of the context of apache). I think that I reconfig everything right for us, but if you have problems with running your php-scripts, send a answer to this post to the ml. Sincerly, DaB. -- wp-blog.de
