Interwiki Markup
by Gabriel O'Brien 12 Nov '03

12 Nov '03

Hi all! I'm trying to get Interwiki markup working on my Wikimedia install. It doesn't appear to be working "out of the box" and I'm trying to go through the code to see where this is implemented so I can figure it out. The only thing I see is Interwiki.php, but all it contains is: /* This file is obsolete... 2003-08-21 */ Any pointers as to where I should be looking? cheers, Gabe -- Gabriel M.

odd database dumps

Several database dumps are strange. E.g. fr: and nL: measure a few Kb, hence odd stats as well. Erik Zachte

mod_rewrite and sysop vs. developer permissions (two questions)
by Gabriel O'Brien 12 Nov '03

12 Nov '03

Hi All! I'm trying to get a MediaWiki implementation running over here: http://aikiwiki.quay.net/ and everything seems to be OK, except for one problem. I've got mod_rewrite running on Apache (v1.3.27 -- I have to leave it at 1.3 for now due to unrelated problems with another app) and it seems to have no trouble rewriting (for example) http://aikiwiki.quay.net/wiki/Ueshiba_Morihei but as soon as I modify "$wgArticlePath" from "{$wgScript}?title=$1" to "/wiki/$1" I can no longer access any of the "Special" pages such as "http://aikiwiki.quay.net/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Preferences" instead the link goes to "http://aikiwiki.quay.net/wiki/Special:Preferences" and it's treated like an empty article. I'm pretty sure that I just have something configured wrongly on my system, but I'm at a loss as to what it might be... any suggestions? Here's the content of my "LocalSettings.php" file: --- begin --- <? # Local settings work like this: the file LocalSettings.sample # should be copied to LocalSettings.php in the source directory # and edited for your local file system settings and software # configuration preferences. The install script will copy it to # the installation path, but a copy should also remain in the # source tree so that maintenance scripts can refer to it (you # may want to make it a symbolic link after installation). Do # not check LocalSettings.php into CVS! It is different for # every installation, and must not be overridden. # The most important setting is here: $IP is the installation # path for the software. # $IP = "/my/path/to/mediawiki/w"; if ( ! isset( $DP ) ) { $DP = $IP; } include_once( "$DP/DefaultSettings.php" ); # You can customize a lot of URLs and paths, but you will # almost certainly want to customize the following. The # ArticlePath one is especially useful if you want to use # mod_redirect to make page-viewing URLs look static. # $wgSitename = "Aikiwiki"; $wgServer = "http://aikiwiki.quay.net"; #$wgArticlePath = "{$wgScript}?title=$1"; $wgArticlePath = "/wiki/$1"; $wgEmergencyContact = "aikiwiki(a)quay.net"; $wgLogo = "/images/aikiwiki.gif"; # MySQL settings # $wgDBserver = "localhost"; $wgDBuser = "user"; $wgDBname = "wiki"; $wgDBpassword = "somepass"; $wgDBsqlpassword = "anotherpass"; $wgDBminWordLen = 3; # Match this to your MySQL fulltext $wgDBtransactions = false; # Set to true if using InnoDB tables # This code is still slightly experimental. Turn it off if "What links here" # and similar stuff does not work. $wgUseBetterLinksUpdate=true; # Turn this on during database maintenance # $wgReadOnly = true; # Turn this on to get HTML debug comments # $wgDebugComments = true; # If you want a non-English wiki, add a line like this # $wgLanguageCode = "de"; $wgUseTeX = false; $wgLocalInterwiki = "w"; $wgInputEncoding = "ISO-8859-1"; $wgOutputEncoding = "ISO-8859-1"; # Extremely high-traffic wikis may want to disable # some database-intensive features here: # # $wgDisableTextSearch = true; # $wgDisableCounters = true; # $wgMiserMode = true; ?> --- end --- Thanks for your help guys! Also an unrelated question, what is the difference between sysop and developer permissions? cheers, Gabe -- Gabriel M.

Wikimedia installation guide
by Richards,Michael 11 Nov '03

11 Nov '03

For all those who are doing an installation of Wikimedia (or will be doing or have done), please see the recently "completed" installation Guide (part of the MediaWiki User's Guide) at http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_User's_Guide:_Installation - and don't just look at it - update/add/fix it whatever, obviously it is not actually finished (are articles ever finished?). Two other versions have been created which are OS specific (recently linked to from http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_User's_Guide). What is the best way to organize this? Should we have: 1) One generic version that has notes on OS specific differences? 2) One version for each OS? 3) One generic version and one version for each OS showing only the differences? - Michael Richards (Nanobug)

Machine update
by Jimmy Wales 10 Nov '03

10 Nov '03

I just got off the phone with Penguin. The machine build is on hold as they are waiting for one part -- a 3 bay drive enclosure of all things. They are now giving an estimated ship date of next Monday, but they seemed to be trying to be conservative with that -- it really depends on when the part comes in. Yeah, I'm not happy about this, either. Anyhow, I was invited to call back again later in the week for a more definitive ETA. I will of course do so and report back to you at that time. --Jimbo

'links' and 'brokenlinks' tables dump?
by Nicolas Weeger 10 Nov '03

10 Nov '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello. On download.wikipedia.org we can find dumps of 'cur' and 'old' tables, but is there a place to grab 'links' and 'brokenlinks'? I'd want to run some queries on links & such, so it'd be easier to have'em :) Thanks in advance Nicolas 'Ryo' -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE/rRi6xqZgvN2acvURAoucAJ9fReX+J6RnQjjEOZ1p5tJ3gszijgCeLJlH ALBSQgG8L7q6+Zn5jJO1Zok= =ZpRK -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
