MediaWiki 1.67 For Xoops Is Released

Posted by phppp on 2006/6/10 10:34:06 (8331 reads) | Posted on Modules
MediaWiki is the collaborative editing software that runs Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, and other projects. It’s designed to handle a large number of users and pages without imposing too rigid a structure or workflow.

System requirements:
* XOOPS 2.0, 2.2, 2.3
* PHP 4.3.2+
* MySQL 4.014+

Download: MediaWiki 1.67 For Xoops

For older PHP/MySQL, plz check MediaWiki 1.58 For Xoops

User guide:
1 Check the file xoops-module-mediawiki-167/readme.html for details
2 Make sure to always use the latest Frameworks by checking the emtpy file xoops-module-mediawiki-167/art/version *.** (applicable to all modules using the Frameworks/art/)
3 If you have error of “Specified key was too long” with installation, modify modules/mediawiki/maintenance/tables.sql (Not fully validated yet):
CREATE TABLE /*$wgDBprefix*/job (
  job_id int(9) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  
  -- Command name, currently only refreshLinks is defined
  job_cmd varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',

  -- Namespace and title to act on
  -- Should be 0 and '' if the command does not operate on a title
  job_namespace int NOT NULL default '0',
  job_title varchar(255) binary NOT NULL default '',

  -- Any other parameters to the command
  -- Presently unused, format undefined
  job_params blob NOT NULL default '',

  PRIMARY KEY job_id (job_id),
  KEY (job_cmd, job_namespace, job_title)
) TYPE=InnoDB, DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin1 collate utf8_general_ci;

Installed and working with XOOPS v2.3, PHP v4.4.2 and MySQL v4.1.19.

The tables.sql modification fixed my “Specified key was too long” problem with v1.66.

Big Thanks for giving us access to mediawiki!

thx Lance_, the mistake is fixed


the table was missing in previous version so it was not dropped when unistall.
It has been added in 1.67, so if you were uninstall 1.67, it would be working.

Hi phppp,
first... respect for all your great works. Exelent modules.

Dokuwiki worked for me right from the first try (now I discovered, that the Recent changes doesn't work but I will figure it out later).

The main problem for me now is the MediaWiki which I consider as the main wiki-goal.
Till today I wasn't able to install it properly, resp. the database part have never installed.
There were some minor problems with path in files
/modules/mediawiki/admin/install.mediawiki.php
/modules/mediawiki/admin/update.mediawiki.php
which I thought I corrected (adding "../" in front of them).
The PHP debug told me that the file didn't exist so I figured.
Quote:

Warning [PHP]: ini_set() has been disabled for security reasons in file modules/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php line 26

Now when I try to install mediawiki, I get blank page, no errors, nothing, and the result is the same - module is ok in system but no tables were created, no errors reported.

I noticed there some ini_set which is marked as Warning which is probably not allowed PHP command on my hosting.

When I try to access the module I get this:
A database error has occurred
Query: SELECT user_name,user_password,user_newpassword,user_email,user_email_authenticated,user_real_name,user_options,user_touched,user_token,user_registration FROM `xoops_mediawiki_user` WHERE user_id = '1' LIMIT 1
Function: User::loadFromDatabase
Error: 1146 Table 'zpccz.xoops_mediawiki_user' doesnt exist (127.0.0.1)

Backtrace:

    * GlobalFunctions.php line 602 calls wfbacktrace()
    * Database.php line 493 calls wfdebugdiebacktrace()
    * Database.php line 439 calls databasemysql::reportqueryerror()
    * Database.php line 826 calls databasemysql::query()
    * Database.php line 845 calls databasemysql::select()
    * User.php line 763 calls databasemysql::selectrow()
    * User.php line 1088 calls user::loadfromdatabase()
    * Setup.php line 239 calls user::getoption()
    * index.php line 80 calls require_once()

plus bunch of Notices...

And my system:
XOOPS 2.0.13.2
Frameworks - art-1.07 / xoops22-1.0
MediaWiki 1.67
PHP 4.4.1
MySQL 4.0.27-log

I am right now little bit lost, I don't know where to look for solutions, cause the install return just blank page. Any guidance would be very much welcome.

ZPC, the "path" must be the problem for you.

hi phppp,
thanx for the reply.
I tried to fix all the path problems and to track the problem. I was able to get some output through ECHO and it all stopped when it was doing:
Quote:
require_once( "$IP/languages/Language.php" );

in file includes/Setup.php

Which I don't know how to track the problem and I think that problem in that file is no your problem but MediaWiki's... so we will see later.

Thanx for the DokuWiki, works like a charm (I fixed the Recent Changes part - wrong CHMOD )

Btw. I tried to install standAlone MediaWiki and it stops on Initialising "MediaWiki" namespace... which is reported bug on mediaWiki site. Well it's all for now from me and mediaWiki.

Hi.

I have the exact same problem.

Freshly installed XOOPS 2.0.14, then Mediawiki 1.67.

After installation I can set the preference of Mediawiki but going to the module front page just shows a blank screen.

Checking my database I can see it hasn't created any tables so that must be the problem.

Did you manage to solve the problem or did any other users with the same errors?

Great module but the css of the theme used on XOOPS main site also works on the wiki which can result in strange and unwanted behaviour. Would be nice if the wiki just used its own css and theme.

Bonjour,

Great works !!! I installed it: no issue during the install.
All the users of my portal (www.go4-it.eu) love it but ... It is extremely slow (whereas other parts of the portal are not).

Is it a 'normal' behaviour ?

My config is:
Xoops 2.2
Mediawiki 1.67
Apache 2.0.53
RAM: 256 Mb
Bandwidth : 512ko/s min guaranted on Lycos VDS

Many thanks for ideas about this,

Franck

how can I fix it so that only the original monobook style is used instead of letting users switch them?

I get the following error, when I try to access mediawiki: Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in /home/www/portal/modules/mediawiki/include/XoopsOutputPage.php on line 208

The page I'm trying to access is http://portal_address/modules/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page

I can access Preferences...

xoops 2.0.13.2
mysql 4.x
php 5.0.5
framework 2.0

(i would try mediawiki 1.71 but the mirror is dead)

Will there be a MediaWiki 1.68 release to fix security bugs? For those of us are still on PHP 4.x would like to see Mediawiki v1.68 module for XOOPS v2.0.16.

Going from PHP 4.x to 5.x is straight forward but some of the XOOPS modules out there still depends on PHP 4.x.

Again and always, many thanks to the developers and folks supporting XOOPS!!!
