[04:50:45] I'm using extension InputBox("https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:InputBox"). Say I have created some Input form with it now how do I use it in my wiki? Should I create a html file and and move it in my extension folder? [04:51:38] Basically how do I put that Input form live in my wiki? [04:54:32] Or how do I use the extension I've installed? [04:56:35] If I'm not wrong do we need to put our code while Creating a new article/topic? [04:59:02] I got my issue resolved!! [06:49:35] Having trouble in uploading file in wiki it gives "Could not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/2/2d/MyFiles.jpg" error [09:14:04] p_d: which wiki [09:14:12] such good timing [13:06:03] y0 and thanks thanks thanks for keeping services up and running [13:06:32] I'm (trying) to move some sites to another server [13:07:14] I'd like to keep the conf as close as it is with WMF [13:07:30] but I am getting way weird behaviour from Apache [13:07:50] Redirects that I cannot see where they come from [13:08:38] I think I just send the hosting guys an email and ask them to give me clean Debian GNU/Linux and try to get it right¨ [13:09:36] My main question is: "What mechanism does WMF use to process the .php that the Apache needs to be processed to be served to customer? I understand there are many competing ways. [13:10:49] Any hosting what support PHP files does process them automatically, doesn't it? [13:11:39] Urbanecm: I am running on a VPS [13:11:59] jubo2, okay. What server do you use? [13:12:31] *webserver [13:12:35] Debian Stable [13:12:41] Apache 2.4 [13:13:05] Thanks. Wait a moment please. [13:14:14] And the webserve doesn't understand .php files? Am I right? [13:15:17] with proper mechanisms in place it does [13:15:39] I'm asking for current state not for what it should do. [13:16:21] ok.. http://some.wiki.study leads to another site on another machine and I never instructed it to do that [13:16:56] And there should be MediaWiki instance? [13:17:33] there was [13:17:51] in directory /on/ [13:17:56] till I messsed it up [13:18:06] first I lost the stylesheets [13:18:19] then the whole thing started to redirect to that other site [13:18:43] There is something very wrong with that whole server [13:19:17] I better just ask for new one with 1 month grace time to get the thign sorted [13:20:03] and do everything from scratch.. and document it in https://byjuho.fi for my own later reference and even maybe for some other people interested [13:20:20] As I can see it send 301 Moved Permanently... Maybe MediaWiki (if it is still placed in filesystem) redir itself somehow. Maybe $wgServer is set to that site... [13:20:39] Urbanecm: What do you recommend for mechanism to handle the http <-> Apache <-> PHP processor arrangement? [13:20:54] Urbanecm: I'll check [13:23:54] whoops. wrong cross button [13:24:26] Urbanecm: line I see is [13:24:28] $wgServer = "http://some.wiki.study"; [13:24:43] This is correct... [13:24:57] maybe it is reading something else that overrides that [13:25:58] But what :) [13:26:25] Does Apache read the files in /var/www/sites-enabled/sitename.tld/ in [13:27:00] some order based on alphabetics [13:27:16] okk.. newb question [13:27:29] If they are really in /var/www then not. All apache conf should be in /etc/apache2 but maybe your apache isn't configured as usual apache is :) [13:27:57] Urbanecm: yeah.. I meant /etc of course [13:29:19] Newb question: How can I find files containing the string 'annikki.fi' in some arbitrary directory and its subdirectories [13:29:48] grep -R annikki\.fi * [13:29:48] For example my apache has IncludeOptional sites-enabled/*.conf in its main configuration so it reads all in sites-enabled directory that ends with .conf [13:30:18] Urbanecm: same here I think [13:30:40] So then it should read it. [13:33:16] no hits in /var/www [13:33:37] few correct and proper hits in /etc but one weird thing [13:33:50] What thing exactly? :) [13:34:01] (stupid UI is in Finnish to make this comlicated) [13:35:07] ls: tiedostoa .cd ei voi käsitellä: Liian monta symbolisten linkkien tasoa [13:35:28] "ls: file .cd cannot be processed: Too many levels of symbolic links" [13:35:49] I don't even know what that .cd is and what it doing there [13:37:55] any recommmendations? [13:39:08] Does ls -a display it? [13:43:49] Urbanecm: yes. '.cd' is shown in red color [13:44:02] and sorry for the delay, needed to take a shower [13:45:55] And ls -la display what about .cd? [13:47:15] lrwxrwxrwx 1 juboxi juboxi 3 joulu 3 10:24 .cd -> .cd [13:47:32] it is a circular link to itself? [13:47:35] Yes. [13:47:44] How about I rm it? [13:47:56] rm .cd [13:47:56] or move it somewhere else? [13:50:25] that did not appear to have any effect on the situation [13:50:36] maybe I should rebump the apache [13:52:01] that 'annikki.fi' is first occurence after the ones that start with a number [13:52:32] what do the numbers do btw... The smaller the number in front of the other text the sooner it gets processed? [13:52:48] Yes. Processed are all files. [13:53:13] ending in .conf only I assume [13:53:55] yes [14:05:41] I'm looking at the .htaccess in the WordPress directory and it looks ok to me [14:07:33] so something somewhere is telling the client to 301 i.e. look for the goods elsewhere [14:10:15] The more perplexed I am by this the more I want to do a clean reinstall of everything and upload the databases and static files [14:11:18] and all this work just because I want data center deep inside Finnish granite bedrock where everything runs on renewable electricity [22:36:58] ShoeMaker, around? :-) [22:37:12] Yes [22:37:40] ShoeMaker, have you tried oojs ui new thingie? If yes, maybe if you want, we could write a script together [22:39:52] I haven't. [22:41:36] ShoeMaker, ok.
