Hi There,

Im Running 3 (small) wikis on the same Server with different Databasees, no problems with it.
All I've done is to give Wiki the different DB names.

Betreff: [SPAM?]: [Mediawiki-l] Re: Installing more than one wiki on the same server

Hey,

About the prefixes:
Are they important in the case of two wikis on the same server?
Can't they just run on two different databases?

Thanks!

Hello, especially to Rob Church as he gave some help on another thread.

I ran a few times the maintenance script Rebuildimages.php, which gave
some result at some point. But as the script doesn't uses a function
unavailable on windows XP (the dl() function can't work on multithreaded
 servers... that's what is said in php manual), I'm not sure everything
is ok.

Online the host is not on windows:
http://www.fxparlant.net/static/phpinfo.php


Now, most of the images have a mime type corresponding to their
extension. Somehow, they still don't show up.

*Image with the dl() warning

*Images not showing
http://www.fxparlant.net/Fxparlant_Pix

Could someone tell me what to do?

Thanks

Just checking; you ran the script on the command line/shell on the web
server, right? You've run rebuildImages.php against that particular
wiki?

Hi !

I created a copy of my wiki from a mysql dump and upgraded to 1.5.
After that, RC shows old changes made before copy+upgrade (10 february), but
no new changes I made yesterday (12 february) :(
How can I fix that ?
- can I clean the table safely ?
- I can't run command-line maintenance script. How can I run it ?

The buggy RC is there :

You appear to have an encoding problem, so check for other database errors.
Turn on $wgDebugRedirects to check if an error message is getting thrown on
save
that might be hidden by the redirect to the page view.

FWIW, I have 2 mediawikis running on the same DB with different
prefixes and they seem to run A-OK. Both are just a few days old and
haven't undergone much testing yet, though.

Hi Rob,

no, I don't have any access to command line at my webhost. What I did is:
- download a dump of the old database (MW1.3 as you recall),
- load it in a mysql DB used by a MW1.3 on local (running Apache, php4
on winXP).
- Install a 1.6 (phase 3) on my local server (no warning at install time).
 -> Result: image not displaying, full page of red warning.
- ran the rebuildimages.php at command line (winXP) before changing the
php.ini
 -> Result: a lot lot lot of warnings
- I changed my php.ini by adding the line:
mime_magic.magicfile = "C:\apache2\php\bin\magic.mime"
 -> Result: a link appears instead of the image in the wiki
 -> Result: The mime type is wrong on the image page: everything is
text/plain
- Ran the rebuildImages.php at command line (still on winXP) after
changing the php.ini
 -> Result: warning about dl() not running on multithreaded web server
 -> Result: in the image pages most images have an extension in
coherence with their filetype
- Hoped that on my webhost, using a linux plateform it would be ok
- Deceived
- Addressed to Rob Church  :-)

Please, still in need of help.

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Problems with Character Encoding During Upgrade
	from	1.4.11 to 1.5.6
To: mediawiki-l at Wikimedia.org
Message-ID: <7AA0D90C-C61E-4A7E-8D12-E4465314945C at prwatch.org>

Hello,

I am doing a test upgrade of MediaWiki from v1.4.11 to v1.5.6. I've  
tried doing the upgrade several ways but am having some problems with  
special characters not converting properly - especially single  
quotation marks. I think that it must have something to do with  
MediaWiki changing the character encoding from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8.

I first tried converting the character encoding using iconv from the  
terminal and then used the converted db in the upgrade. I did the  
rest of the upgrade from the web browser. This results in some  
strange stuff. For example, on the 1.4.11 site, on a page called  
'Devil's Weed', when I mouse over the link, I see that the single  
quote is translated as '%92'. When I mouse over the same link on the  
upgraded site, the single quote shows as 'b%3F%3F' and there are a  
lot of question marks in black triangles on the page where the single  
quotes should be appearing.

I tried doing the upgrade completely from the web browser in the  
hopes that the character conversion would happen automatically. This  
results in the character not being converted at all.

We're running php 5.1.1 and MySQL 4.1.15.

Any thoughts on how to get the special characters to show correctly  
in the upgraded version?

Thanks,

Tricia Barden

Hello,

I'm doing a test upgrade of our SourceWatch site from MediaWiki  
v1.4.1.1 to v1.5.6, using PHP 5.1.1, MySQL 4.1.15 and FreeBSD O/S.

I've stepped through the upgrade several times and each time the  
process jams when the script tries to create the "validate" table  
resulting in a MySQL 'Can't create table' error message (errno: 121).

I recently have successfully done a couple of new installs of  
MediaWiki v1.5.5 but, in each case, I assigned a database prefix to  
the tables. So, just as a test, I added a database prefix to the  
tables in the database for the upgrade. This seems to work.

I think that perhaps 'validate' is a reserved word in this version of  
MySQL and that this is the reason why MySQL stops when asked to  
create a table called 'validate'.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks,

Tricia Barden
