Issue with encoding
by Zoran Dori 11 Jan '23

11 Jan '23

Hello, I'm working on one wiki which shows characters in a weird way. UTF-8 is used for encoding, so I believe that it isn't an issue. You can take a look here Statik A – Sub Bavaria (sub-bavaria.de) <http://www.sub-bavaria.de/w/index.php?title=Statik_A>, so you can better understand what I'm talking about. Could you please point me to something that I should look for, so I can fix this issue? Wiki was previously on version 1.31, I've upgraded it to 1.38. Thanks for your help and understanding! Best regards, Zoran

Update issues with Git branches missing
by John 31 Dec '22

31 Dec '22

I am attempting to update an outdated wiki but REL1_39 is missing from the extensions repository, and in fact anything after 1.35 isn't there either. Same issue affects the Skins repository too. See: * https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/skins * https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/+refs Not having branched releases matching between the groups will cause compatibility issues. Can we please get the missing branches made?

Import failed: Error creating directory shellbox
by redheadkelly＠thefryingpan.net 27 Dec '22

27 Dec '22

I'm attempting to import XML dumps from several other Mediawiki wikis into a local install of MediaWiki running on XAMPP. Some files import fine, but many of them get the error 'Import failed: Error creating directory shellbox-bdd810ee1edf29b3'. Number at the end changes with each attempt. I'm running: MediaWiki 1.37.2 PHP 7.4.27 (apache2handler) MariaDB 10.4.22-MariaDB I have '$wgTmpDirectory = "C:\xampp\htdocs\mediawiki_manuals\images\temp";' set in LocalSettings.php. All of my mediawiki directories & subdirectories have full permissions. None of them are read-only. Not sure what the hang-up is. Thanks for any help

Problem migrating from 1.38.5 to 1.39.1 due to Composer dependencies
by Jeffrey Walton 27 Dec '22

27 Dec '22

Hi Everyone, We are trying to migrate from Mediawiki 1.38.5 to 1.39.1. The webserver is Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS, x86_64, fully patched. At the step of installing Composer with its dependencies,[1] 'composer install' is dying with the error message: <BEGIN SNIP> Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages. Problem 1 - Installation request for doctrine/dbal 3.4.2 -> satisfiable by doctrine/dbal[3.4.2]. - doctrine/dbal 3.4.2 requires composer-runtime-api ^2 -> no matching package found. Potential causes: - A typo in the package name - The package is not available in a stable-enough version according to your minimum-stability setting see <https://getcomposer.org/doc/04-schema.md#minimum-stability> for more details. - It's a private package and you forgot to add a custom repository to find it <END SNIP> We are running the latest version of Composer: # apt-cache search composer | sort ... composer - dependency manager for PHP And: # apt-cache show composer Package: composer Architecture: all Version: 1.10.1-1 Priority: optional Section: universe/php Origin: Ubuntu ... Please advise on how to proceed. Thanks in advance, Jeff [1] https://github.com/weidai11/website/blob/master/mediawiki/wiki-upgrade.txt#…

Announcing MediaWiki 1.39.0
by Sam Reed 10 Dec '22

10 Dec '22

I am happy to announce the availability of the general release of MediaWiki 1.39! Tarballs have already been uploaded, and the git tag has been pushed. Thanks to everyone who helped out with this release, especially thanks to those who tested out the release candidates and provided feedback, as well as the developers who worked hard to get several important fixes merged in time for the 1.39 final release. To see what's changed in 1.39, see the release notes below. Please note that the PHP version requirement has been raised from 7.3.19 in MediaWiki 1.38 (and 1.35) to 7.4.3. MediaWiki 1.39 is the first release of MediaWiki 'born' with PHP 8.0 and PHP 8.1 support included. We anticipate there may be some as-yet undiscovered bugs with PHP 8.x support, of which we'd love to hear reports so they can be fixed. We plan to back-port fixes to 1.38 and 1.35 to the extent possible. MediaWiki 1.39 is an LTS and is due to be supported until the end of November 2025. As a reminder, 1.35 LTS is due to become end-of-life in November 2023, and 1.38 is due to become end-of-life in June 2023. 1.37 is becoming end-of-life today, and will be formally announced in a separate email. === Changes since MediaWiki 1.39.0-rc.1 === * Localisation updates. * exception: Tolerate no service container when trying DB rollback. * (T320282) Upgrading wikimedia/xmp-reader (0.8.3 => 0.8.4). * objectcache: Deprecate WANObjectCache::reap() and ::reapCheckKey(). * (T320864) When calling mail(), use an array for headers. * Upgrading wikimedia/xmp-reader (0.8.4 => 0.8.5). * (T321154) Call setFormIdentifier() on LogEventsList form. * When importing revision with same timestamp as latest revision, treat it as the new latest. * (T320726) RandomImageGenerator::getImageSpec: Don't pass a float to mt_rand(), for PHP 8.1. * (T298485, T322360) WikiExporter: Avoid calling reload in processing every row. * (T321551) pager: Fix null used for foreach in Pager::getNavigationBar. * (T321551) pager: Remove unused AlphabeticPager::getOrderTypeMessages() support. * pager: Remove unused PagerNavigationBuilder::setExtra(). * PagerNavigationBuilder: Document that nulls in setLinkQuery() etc. are allowed. * (T322335) ApiQueryRevisionsBase: Fix 'rvdiffto' parameter handling on PHP 8.0. * (T314096) TestFileEditor: Fix string interpolation. * (T289926) api: Fix minor PHP 8.1 incompatibility in ApiOptions. * (T322803) SpecialBotPasswords: Don't pass null to trim(). * (T289926) Fix incomplete ITextFormatter mocks. * Language: Handle ronna and quetta. * (T72510) rdbms: make SqlitePlatform::tableName() apply double quotes. * (T323373) Parser: Fix extractSections() behavior for PHP >= 8.0. * .gitattributes: Ship docker-compose.yml to the tarball.

External Data issues fetching values from other wiki
by Jeremi Plazas 09 Dec '22

09 Dec '22

Hi there, We've been using the External Data extension for years now and managed to make it work really well for us to fetch data from our private wikis onto more public wiki sites. The new version 3.2 is causing some issues for us. Here is the gist: Simple values (Semantic property of type text) come through fine with the new method: > {{#external_value:PersonTypeRaw > > quote_type > > |source=https://commons-new.tsadra.org/index.php?title=Special%3AAsk&q={{urlencode:[[Dorje, G.]]}}&po=PersonTypeRaw&p%5Bformat%5D=csv > > |format=csv > }} Result: Authors of English Works More complex values (Semantic property of type text) however do not (they used to just fine), the function doesn't seem to fire at all. For the value: > * "The Guhyagarbhatantra and its XIVth Century Commentary Phyogs-bcu mun-sel." PhD Thesis, SOAS, University of London (3 vols), 1987.

In the 1970s he spent a decade living in Tibetan communities in India and Nepal where he received extensive teachings from Kangyur Rinpoche, Dudjom Rinpoche, Chatral Rinpoche, and Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. In 1971 Dudjom Rinpoche encouraged him to begin translating his recently completed ''History of the Nyingma Schoo''l (རྙིང་མའི་སྟན་པའི་ཆོས་འབྱུང་) and in 1980 his ''Fundamentals of the Nyingma School'' (བསྟན་པའི་རྣམ་གཞག) - together this was an undertaking that was to take twenty years, only reaching completion in 1991. In the 1980s Gyurme returned to the UK and in 1987 completed his 3 volume doctoral dissertation on the ''Guhyagarbhatantra'' and Longchenpa's commentary on this text at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) at the University of London. > From 1991 to 1996 Gyurme held research fellowships at London University, where he worked with Alak Zenkar Rinpoche on translating (with corrections) the content of the Great Sanskrit Tibetan Chinese Dictionary to create the three volume ''Encyclopaedic Tibetan-English Dictionary''. From 2007 until his death he worked on many translation projects, primarily as a Tsadra Foundation grantee. He has written, edited, translated and contributed to numerous important books on Tibetan religion and culture including ''The Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism: Its Fundamentals and History'' (2 vols.) (Wisdom, 1991), ''Tibetan Medical Paintings'' ( 2 vols.) (Serindia, 1992), ''The Tibet Handbook'' (Footprint, 1996), the first complete translation of the ''Tibetan Book of the Dead'', and ''A Handbook of Tibetan Culture'' (Shambhala, 1994).
