[02:23:09] Re Thiemo's request... [02:23:10] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T172975 [09:03:40] I just editted a page on WikiData without logging in (first time). Is here also an oversight user I can ask to edit the history of the item? [14:36:44] nikki: I've increased the throttling limits on wdqs, let me know if you run into issues again... [16:32:54] gehel: thanks, I will do. btw, one thing I have noticed is that I don't seem to get messages about queries timing out now, it just says "server error" [16:33:38] nikki: thanks! No queries timing out would be an unexpected side effect... I'll check [16:35:01] I think they're still timing out correctly (I can see "java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException" in the big error dump) but it doesn't seem to detect it properly [16:35:10] (at least, I don't remember seeing "server error" much before) [19:11:10] Hi, trying to connect from my WikiMedia installation to WikiData; but enabling the Wikidata Extension in LocalSettings.php breaks my Wikimedia [19:12:20] tried to find out more about the settings when using the Wikidata-Extension as a Wikidata-Client, but couldn't find any solution [19:22:14] crossfader: are you using the “Wikidata build” extension or Wikibase (Wikibase client and/or repo)? [19:33:20] Wikidata build extension, including wikibase from repository [19:33:32] tried Wikibase first [19:34:08] but too many dependencies were missing, and constroctor messed the extension up [19:34:39] s/construcor/constructor/ [19:35:13] sorry, for all the typos, I'm tired allready [19:35:52] ... and I'm using it as Wikibase client, Lucas_WMDE [19:36:15] ... [19:36:28] okay… I’m not sure how the build extension is used, unfortunately [19:36:47] how does it break your installation? can you perhaps put the error message(s) in a pastebin or somethhing [19:36:50] *something? (sorry) [19:37:07] everything looks fine, my special:version page shows up with the extensions, unless I enable the wikibase-client [19:37:17] from that moment nothing works anymore [19:37:58] when I disable wikibase-client it works again, but I cannot access data from wikibase.org without the client [19:38:26] I will look for the debug info [19:38:28] wait a moment [19:42:55] ; so this is the error Traceback: https://pastebin.com/qUHpvsax [19:45:13] and this is the modules section of my LocalSettings.php: https://pastebin.com/xFQx4M5r [19:46:35] This error comesup whatever page of my mediawiki-installation I try to open [19:47:09] until I disable the Wikibase Client within the wikidata installation [19:47:41] Wikibase Repo does not induce any systemwide errors [19:48:02] crossfader: I think you’re missing a few of the config lines on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Installation#Enable_Wikibase_Client_only [19:48:04] and shows up in special:version when enabled [19:48:07] but I’m not sure how necessary they are [19:48:49] but “$lookups must not be empty” sounds like it could be due to the missing example settings [19:49:38] crossfader: are you using git master of both wikimedia and wikibase extension? [19:50:07] well Wikidata as entrypoint calls the WikibaseClient.php when the $wmgUseWikibaseClient variable is set (true) [19:50:23] i mean Wikidata.php [19:50:24] I just installed both from source (git master, on ubuntu 16.04, with mariadb) yesterday with success - once I used the binary collation for mariadb instead of utf-8 [19:50:36] hi [19:51:16] it's probably easier to just use wikibase https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase [19:51:38] it didn't work for me either [19:51:50] tried it before, error was the same [19:53:00] I switched to wikidata distribution, as I suspected the error to be caused by broken dependencies in my extensions setup [19:53:05] maybe the example configs are not up-to-date? [19:53:37] yea, the example configs seems to be old, and the installation guides as well [19:54:17] this is commented out? #require_once "$IP/extensions/Wikidata/extensions/Wikibase/client/ExampleSettings.php"; [19:55:41] I successfully installed and enabled both wikibase client and wikibase repo yesterday; didn't try just the client though [19:56:13] but like Lucas_WMDE pointed out the install & config at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Installation#Enable_Wikibase_Client_only has a few settings that you seem to be missing [19:57:07] I commented it out to load the default settings [19:57:12] we are looking [19:57:15] but tried the example settings as well [19:59:35] did you connect to the wikidata.org repo, dbs? [20:04:17] anyway, when I enable both, client and repo, I get a different error: [20:04:40] "Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError“ [20:04:51] did you run update.php ? [20:05:04] to have the wikibase db tables added? [20:07:24] after changing the configuration? [20:07:38] i ran it once after installation [20:07:51] again after wikibase is enabled? [20:07:57] not yet [20:09:39] we are looking at the error and trying to figure out why it's happening [20:09:47] or what is missing from example settings [20:09:50] that was it [20:09:56] ok [20:10:13] does wikibase client work now? [20:11:26] not sure [20:12:26] guess i have to fix my interwiki table [20:12:50] my wikibase client does not retrieve any data yet [20:13:00] from wikidata.org [20:13:05] yeah you need interwikis [20:13:19] it won't get data from wikidata, only from your local wikibase repo [20:13:28] oh [20:13:50] :( I want to connect to wikidata [20:14:24] in the future, think we want to support federated wikibase [20:14:46] which might help with that [20:15:28] found very poor documentation on how to connect with the wikidata servers [20:15:51] could be via the api, but is not yet supported in wikibase [20:16:04] in wikimedia, the client wikis directly access wikidata's database [20:16:32] internally, but that's not possible for wikibase instances outside wikimedia (though supposedly in the future could be via the api) [20:17:09] well i want to use my wikibase-client within wikimedia [20:17:38] probably not possible :( [20:18:12] does that mean, i have to copy all the data from wikibase.org to my own repository to use it? and have to maintain and update the data myself? [20:18:15] someone could probably code something that gets data via wikidata's api [20:18:48] there's a tool that helps do that https://github.com/filbertkm/WikibaseImport though is experimental [20:19:14] in the future, federation / remote data access via the api would be better [20:21:32] now it's running so far [20:21:48] I won't touch configuration until I know what to do, [20:21:52] ok [20:22:05] sounds like progress [20:22:19] and how to connect to the wikidata.org repository, or how to set up my own base [20:22:32] yea, some progress :) [20:22:36] thank you [20:22:48] sure [20:23:22] for the update.php hint, which was crucial [20:24:32] and for saving me a lot of work, telling me, that what I want to do, is not implemented within the wikimedia framework yet [20:24:50] thx [20:25:08] now I can populate my database with content [20:25:11] bye
