[09:23:01] <Remilia>	 when you find an extension and get all excited about it and then it says ‘MySQL and SQlite only’
[09:23:37] * Remilia is trying to figure out how to authenticate against MW when the OAuth extension is out of question
[09:36:34] <RhinosF1>	 Remilia: what are you using?
[10:16:46] <Remilia>	 RhinosF1: PostgreSQL
[12:03:54] <Reedy>	 Remilia: I need to finish off https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/OAuth/+/643259
[12:05:02] <Remilia>	 Reedy: whoa, nice \o/ I will be waiting warmly
[12:05:56] <Remilia>	 I really want to let my Rust app that manages/displays strictly defined data to allow people with wiki accounts to log in without having to create a new account specifically for the app
[12:21:09] <Remilia>	 brain froze for a moment on that page and parsed "Patch Set 11 was debased"
[13:42:28] <Trancie>	 hello. i work on enabling the shorturl functionality but my result is only a file not found error
[13:43:11] <Trancie>	 i tried the wiki hints and tips without success
[13:43:33] <Trancie>	 i could really need a helping hand
[13:46:23] <Trancie>	 i tried the suggested settings in mediawiki.conf, 000-default.conf and also as .htaccess file in all possible and impossible places
[13:46:49] <Trancie>	 i tried all kinds of variantes of /etc/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php
[14:21:18] <Trancie>	 too bad, nobody available like on discord
[14:33:08] <Trancie>	 its been a long time that mediawiki is used
[14:44:18] <AntiComposite>	 Trancie, which instructions did you use?
[14:45:40] <Trancie>	 AntiComposite: i used https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/Apache/de aside from other docs which i no longer have
[14:46:02] <Trancie>	 i use apache2 on debian 11 btw
[14:48:54] <AntiComposite>	 do you have MediaWiki installed to DOCUMENT_ROOT/w/ (by default /var/www/html/w) ?
[14:49:43] <Trancie>	 no, i use the packaged form on debian 11 which uses /var/lib and /usr/share
[14:51:36] <Trancie>	 more specific: /var/lib/mediawiki -> /usr/share/mediawiki
[14:57:04] <AntiComposite>	 just to double-check, when you navigate to your site (without short URL), is it like http://example.com/w/index.php?title=... or http://example.com/index.php?title=...
[14:58:02] <Trancie>	 it is: https://DOMAIN.de/mediawiki/index.php/Hauptseite
[14:58:34] <AntiComposite>	 ah, so everywhere in the short URL configuration you see /w/, substitute /mediawiki/
[14:59:08] <Trancie>	 yes, and i tried quite a few variants 
[14:59:21] <Trancie>	 mod rewrite is enabled too
[15:00:19] <Trancie>	 i even tried this auto tool without success
[15:03:33] <AntiComposite>	 hrm... legoktm, got any ideas?
[15:03:53] <Trancie>	 brb, 5 min (sorry!)
[15:10:03] <Trancie>	 i must admit that i don't really know what i am doing with the webserver and the rewrite rules
[15:12:20] <RhinosF1>	 Reedy: is there a patch file for https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-LdapAuthentication/compare/b416bfd7c51c7a40ddfbc23f2bfd83ecc95b389c...b2f4cb709e09bf102eb4d23e845285d802e7f34e
[15:28:21] <RhinosF1>	 worked it out
[18:30:43] <legoktm[m]>	 I need to write a guide for enabling short URLs with the MW Debian package
[19:26:07] <Trancie>	 i will be a lucky tester
