Environment: MediaWiki 1.12.0, Linux Redhat
My personal site got vandalized by hundreds of page changes. I was going to
try to undo them by hand but I kept getting:
"The edit could not be undone due to conflicting intermediate edits."
So I found information about doing automated "rollbacks"
here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Edit_-_Rollback
and here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Administrators#Rollback
But when I follow the process and pass "action=rollback" I get the following
error:
unknown_action: Unrecognised value for parameter 'action'
It seems the only actions I have available to me are:
login, logout, query, expandtemplates, parse, opensearch, feedwatchlist,
help, paraminfo
Is it that my version of MW doesn't have the rollback feature? Do I need to
upgrade to the recent version and do you know if that will enable me to
rollback to my original page?
Thanks for your help!
