Hello, I've looked in handbook and I've googled about and have not been
able to find out what I can do to finish installing version 1.6.6. (with
PHP-5.0.4, MySQL-4.1.12, and Apache-2.0.52 ).
When running through the initial configuration page
(localhost/wiki/config/index.php), it proceeds alright until it gets to
"Initialising "MediaWiki" Namespace..." whereupon it provides:
(dbname) has a problem
Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.
Try waiting a few minutes and reloading.
(Can't contact the database server: Unknown error (localhost))
Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction to address my problem.
Thanks,
Danny

Have a look at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/FCKeditor_and_HTML::WikiConverter
and
http://wiki.fckeditor.net/WikiSandBox?action=edit&editor=gui
where you can switch between gui edit mode and text edit mode.
Theoretically, one could add this feature to the mediawiki software. One could
even implement such a back parser as an extension as the necessary hooks
are already in place. However, I will not go in this direction.

Sorry for the fractured sentence. I meant we previously were able to
upgrade an earlier version of this database on a test machine.

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Database error when upgrading
We're having some trouble running an upgrade on one of our 1.4.12
servers to 1.6.6. We previously were able to upgrade on this machine on
test machine, but now when we try to run the upgrade we get this error:
Cleaning up broken links for namespace -1... ok

Next we tried going from 1.4.12 to 1.5.8, to see if we could do an
incremental upgrade, and we get the same error:
Cleaning up broken links for namespace 1... A database error has
occurred

Any ideas? The site seems to be functioning fine on 1.4.12 at this
point.

Hi,
I'm trying to setup Wiki 1.6.X to use email notification.
In my LocalSettings file:
$wgEnableEmail = true;
$wgEnableUserEmail = true;
$wgEmergencyContact = "wiki(a)castortech.com";
$wgPasswordSender = "wiki(a)castortech.com";
$wgSMTP is giving me problems.
I checked: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:%24wgSMTP but I'm not sure
how to set it up.
Do I need that PEAR thing?
I use an external SMTP server with my backup app and I only had to tell
it the name and port of the server.
Do I only need host and port or everything? And Must I keep the "" where
they are?
$wgSMTP = array(
'host' => "localhost",
'IDHost' => "domain for MessageID",
'port' => 25,
'auth' => false,
'username' => "my_user_name",
'password' => "my_password"
);
Thanks!
Simon
I wanted to create an extension that presents users with a form to
create a page, or add to a page, based on a template. For instance,
let's say i had a template that looked like this:
---- Wikipage: 'Template:Exampletemp' ----
{{{precontent}}}
=={{{title}}}==
{{{content}}}
---- End ----
I want to write an extension where users go to [[Special:Form/
Exampletemp]] and get a form like this:
Page name: _________
Precontent: <textarea>
Title: ______
Content: <textarea>
That, when filled out, should create a page following the template -
same as using {{subst:Exampletemp}} would have, but easier for the
end user - and smart, creating the form from the template's content.
Does anybody think they could create something like this? How hard
would it be? What concessions would have to be made, ETC? Would make
lots of things easier for the end-users - both newbies looking to
create a page following a template, and for existing users trying to
make sure a crop of pages follow an agreed-upon format.
I am trying to update from 1.5.7 to 1.6.6 and after running update.php I am
getting the following message
A database error has occurred
Query: INSERT INTO `en_text` (old_id,old_text,old_flags) VALUES
(NULL,'[[$1]] moved to [[$2]]','utf-8')
Function: Revision::insertOn
Error: 1048 Column 'old_id' cannot be null (localhost)
I know zero about mysql and can find nothing out there to help me.
Any ideas please
Laurie Lewis
Can you tell me how to fix :
Fatal error: Call to undefined function:
wfspecialuserlogin() in /var/www/.../SpecialPage.php
on line 415
Thanks,
Jeff

Hello all!
I am currently making few markup extensions, and I noticed a problem:
Let's say my extension tries to type the same word but in pink. Well, what I
want is something like that:
Writing: "<pinky>Bla Bla [[something]]</pinky>"
Will give me "Bla Bla SOMETHING" where something is a link.
What I get instead is "Bla Bla [[something]]" with no link.
I should have seen it happening, but I still don't have a clue how to do it
otherwise.
I can use a replace function that makes "[[" a "<a href=...>" and "]]" a
"</a>", but it won't do well. All of the links will be blue (even if no
content is inside) and it won't handle well with typing mistakes as
"[[something]". And it's barbaric.
I just want to keep the wiki links as they are, just like the
"<big>[[something]]</big>" does. Can I imitate it somehow?
(main reason for me to do all this is to write an extension that replaces
all specific words within a text with wiki-linked expressions. i.e.:
"<makelinks>bla bla something bla bla</makelinks>" will return something
equal to "bla bla [[something]] bla bla".)
Any core functions I can include to do this?
Glad to hear any ideas!
Peleg.
