[12:25:30] <gromit>	 Is there a mediawiki setting to disable diffs over a certain size? We're currently seeing some abuse with attackers abusing diffs over a big history to craft long requests
[12:34:56] <Reedy>	 IIRC...
[12:36:45] <Reedy>	 Or maybe not
[12:56:33] <gromit>	 Reedy: I didn't find anything :/
[12:56:52] <Reedy>	 I wasn't sure if there were some options on some of the custom diff engines
[12:57:09] <gromit>	 Also is there a page documenting a few things one should consider once a instance grows to a certain size? 
[12:57:28] <gromit>	 Or a blog by the people running the actual wikipedia? :p
[12:57:52] <Reedy>	 "it depends" ;)
[12:57:54] <Reedy>	 !perf
[12:57:59] <Reedy>	 !performance

[12:58:08] <Reedy>	 Vaguely useful, maybe
[12:59:09] <gromit>	 I will have a look at those, thanks! 
[13:01:53] <Krinkle>	 Many of Aaron's tips there have been surpassed by improved defaults both in MW core and in PHP itself.
[13:02:06] <Krinkle>	 Nice to see things get better over time.
[22:24:11] <Honglan233>	 hey

[22:24:40] <Reedy>	 Looks like you haven't got the PHP mysql DB driver installed
[22:25:36] <Honglan233>	 hmm, What is this?
[22:25:52] <Honglan233>	 How should I install it?
[22:33:37] <Honglan233>	 Reedy Are you talking about something like phpmyadmin? I think I installed it
[22:33:41] <Reedy>	 no
[23:18:23] <Honglan233>	 Reedy I installed php-mysql, but this created a new problem
[23:19:49] <Honglan233>	 it said "cannot Access the database"
[23:21:05] <Honglan233>	 https://img.picui.cn/free/2024/07/20/669af40f35e05.png
[23:22:12] <Reedy>	 It looks like your DB config in LocalSettings.php is wrong, and/or mysql isn't running etc
