[00:44:43] how do i get the RegexBlock extension working? [00:53:04] when im trying to use https://filmpedia.us/index.php/Special:RegexBlock it crashes How do i fix it?? [00:54:20] Hi. I am running mediawiki locally via the official Docker image. I can access the site normally at localhost via a browser. I can also fetch the root via `curl -I http://localhost:8080/` and get a 200. However, if I try to curl any of the API endpoints (or access them programmatically), I get a 404. AFAICT I'm using the stock Docker image; does [00:54:20] anyone have suggestions why this might be happening? My goal is to edit a local wiki via python. [00:54:58] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/eBz4dI8h/ [00:55:10] also got this error when trying to upgrade php [01:16:42] any idea how i get RegexBlock to work? [19:02:19] Hi, using 1.39.5 on Debian stable on a Linode cloud computer. I set up a private wiki (great feature by the way, thanks), and I created two accounts but their temporary password e-mails were rejected by gmail. I think I've fixed that problem, but how to resend those e-mails? [19:05:00] Use password reset? [19:08:49] okay that's what I did, but it didn't send any e-mails. (I checked the e-mail log). could it be because it's been less than 24 hours since last send? [19:57:15] hm [19:57:48] can you make a third account and see whether its email is received [19:57:53] as a debugging step [19:58:05] tomg [19:58:52] i sent manually an e-mail to gmail and it wasn't bounced, so i think that's fixed... [19:59:01] I was going to use changePassword.php to change the password [20:01:15] okay thanks guys, i hope that works [20:02:18] How do i set cosmos skin to display Global tags? [20:52:57] Hello! [20:56:12] I followed the tutorial of installation using Docker in Linux. But the database didn't install. The browser shows (Cannot access the database: Cannot access the database: No database connection (localhost)) [20:56:12] Can any one help me? [20:58:20] please give them time to respond [21:21:59] Solved! Thank you anyway! [22:49:18] Hi All. I have inheritded a very old mediawiki installation that I'd like to modernise. I'm very new to mediawiki. My initial plan is to switch from a an install in /srv/mediawiki to using the published container images *without* changing the version. [22:50:25] I expect there are a number of plugins and themes installed in the current version, any advice on how to find them and how to utilise them in conjunction with a contanerised mediawiki? [22:54:03] tonyb: for a typical install to /srv/mediawiki, code for extensions would be found in /srv/mediawiki/extensions and skins would be in /srv/mediawiki/skins. [22:54:26] You should be able to see in LocalSettings.php any and all extensions and skins that have been enabled for the deployment. Look for `wfLoadSkin` and `wfLoadExtension` function calls. [22:54:27] if it's very old... does a container image exist for that version? [22:55:00] Reedy: Yup I checked the container exists. \o/ [22:55:18] What version? [22:56:41] mediawiki-1.28.2 [22:57:36] from dockerhub "Last pushed 6 years ago by doijanky" [22:58:33] also mandaory reminder that "skin" and "theme" are entirely different concepts in MediaWiki: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Jack_Phoenix/theme ;) [22:59:30] ashley: Thanks. As I said I'm very new to mediawiki so that's almost certainly helpful [23:03:46] no worries, a *lot* of people make that mistake so I try to educate folks whereever and whenever I can :) (and to add to the (over)use of the word "theme", there are nowadays OOUI (UI library) "themes" in MW core as well, which my little page doesn't mention because I've been lazy when it comes to updating that >.>) [23:04:22] !bug 1 | ashley [23:04:22] ashley: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org [23:04:22] but anyways, if skins are giving you a hard time or you have a custom skin etc. that needs to be modernized, lemme know! I've done a "bit" of skinning work in the past ;) [23:04:52] Reedy: something something don't template the regulars :P (also nice, you just uncovered a bug w/ wm-bot!) [23:05:41] * bd808 hands Reedy and ashley each a trout and calls for a duel at 5 paces [23:12:46] ashley: Thanks for the offer. There is for sure a custom skin which isn't listed on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Stable_skins so when I get to updating the MW code I'll probably reach out. [23:13:49] My first aim is to get a functional ... as close as possible .. install in a container so that OS updates are less likely to break things, then work on the install itself [23:14:07] awesome :D always glad to help out w/ skinning stuff and increase the # of available skins :) [23:14:51] ashley: Thanks [23:16:02] you're welcome, and best of luck! (I wish I could help out w/ the containerization stuff, but alas, I know basically nothing about that, so :/) [23:42:45] ashley: It's a slow project but rest assured, you'll see me here asking questions as I go.
