MediaWiki version 1.25 installation notes (On 2015-02-26 installed as alpha version)

General note: the present code may NOT allow updating. On trial it failed on updating the extensions. Instead, an update was created in a new folder, and then the existing folder overwritten.

MW_WMF_CLONE → usr-share-wiki

  • Create a MediaWiki versioned source in usr/share
  • Create extension sources, extract Git extensions to usr-share-wiki
    • biowikifarm extensions
    • no further developed extension still necessary fro biowikifarm
    • Git extensions from MW_WMF_CLONE

usr-share-wiki core

else
  echo -e "Wiki wiki directory ($git_branch) exits already: '${usr_share_wiki_path}'"

Skins

Since Mediawiki V1.25 the default skins are in separate Git respositories, copied separately

Note: this code presently directly checks out a git for each version, not (as in core and extensions) creates an archive export. Could be changed in the future for consistency. 

 # variables
 cd ${usr_share_wiki_path}/skins
 # get default skins from separate skin git
  ## NEXT TIME: extract (git archive) from "${git_path}/skins"!
 sudo git clone https://git.wikimedia.org/git/mediawiki/skins/Vector.git
 # optionally get special skins from separate git(s)
 sudo git clone https://github.com/MfN-Berlin/mwSkinNaturkunde.git

  1. COPY over existing installation. EXAMPLE:
sudo cp /var/www/zzz-temp-overwrite4mw25template/w/* /var/www/v-on/w25 -pr


Install composer extensions

Newer extensions must be dealt with at level of /var/www-wiki. Documentation 

##↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
# Get PHP composer tool / Rerun for UPDATING
cd ~ # personal home directory
sudo curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
sudo chown root:mwadmin composer.phar
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/
##↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑

NOTES: Normally composer creates a "vendor" folder in the /var/www/.../w/ folder On biowikifarm we create a vendor folder in /usr/share/mediawikixx and already linked to this. Problem: originally the composer.json and composer.lock (created on first install) were left in the var-www-wikis (with the possibilites to have different ones, e.g. with/without SMW). However, the update maintenance script (cd /var/www/v-on/w25; sudo -u www-data php ./maintenance/update.php --quick --conf ./LocalSettings.php) fails to run. Adding back-symlinks: 

# rename composer.json to composer.distrib.json if updating from existing installs:
sudo mv /usr/share/mediawiki25/composer.json /usr/share/mediawiki25/composer.distrib.json 
sudo ln -s /var/www/v-on/w25/composer.json /usr/share/mediawiki25/composer.json 
sudo ln -s /var/www/v-on/w25/composer.lock /usr/share/mediawiki25/composer.lock

did fix this. (Note: the "normal" direction, file in usr/share/... and symlink in var/www/... would probably work as well, the hope is that this still allows differentiation. To be tested!

Notes:

  • Update the /usr/share/mediawikiXX/composer.json file with the desired composer-installed extensions
  • For all these extensions, remove the include statements you have in your LocalSettings.php file.
  • Not for this fresh install, but for later changes within a version: remove folder located in usr-share-extensions

Run composer: 

cd /var/www/v-on/w25 ## EXAMPLE
# First time (writing both into vendor and extension folders): 
sudo php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar install
# Later (harmless to re-run):
sudo php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar update

OTHER WORK

  • Versioned MediaWikiCommonSettings.php needed:
    • sudo cp /var/www/MediaWikiCommonSettings.php /var/www/MediaWikiCommonSettingsV25.php -pr
  • To be safe, create a copy of the metawiki database!
  • Update LocalSettings
    • use MediaWikiCommonSettingsVXX
    • remove shared tables before updating DB: $wgSharedTables = array("xxx");
    • verify that a temporary, version-specific wiki-db is used for testing
  • Update MediaWikiCommonSettingsVXX
    • Remove the Composer-based extension calls from
  • Run update (EXAMPLE)
cd /var/www/v-on/w25; sudo -u www-data php ./maintenance/update.php  --quick --conf ./LocalSettings.php
cd /var/www/v-on/w25; sudo -u www-data php ./extensions/TitleKey/rebuildTitleKeys.php  --quick --conf ./LocalSettings.php
  • SMW-updates partly work with new rebuildData script and conf= syntax: 
cd /var/www/v-on/w25;  
sudo -u www-data php ./maintenance/runJobs.php -v --procs 4 --conf ./LocalSettings.php
sudo -u www-data php ./extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/maintenance/rebuildData.php -ftpv --conf=./LocalSettings.php 
sudo -u www-data php ./extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/maintenance/rebuildData.php -v --conf=./LocalSettings.php 
sudo -u www-data php ./maintenance/runJobs.php -v --procs 4 --conf ./LocalSettings.php
sudo /usr/sbin/apache2ctl -k graceful && sudo service nginx restart && sudo service php5-fpm restart

STATUS: Most problematic: Page 1 not rendered in browser,, same error with rebuildData script and with rebuildFileCache: 

cd /var/www/v-on/w25;     sudo -u www-data php ./maintenance/rebuildFileCache.php 0 overwrite --conf ./LocalSettings.php

results in error: 

Notice: Array to string conversion in /usr/share/mediawiki25/includes/db/Database.php on line 1093 [b31fec11] [no req]   
MWException from line 6357 of /usr/share/mediawiki25/includes/parser/Parser.php: Parser state cleared while parsing. Did you call Parser::parse recursively?

Installation Issues, Problems, Transition from older Wikis

  • RELEASE-NOTES: read/check file mw-source/RELEASE-NOTES-X.XX, changes are described there, class changes, core changes and deprecated functions
  • CHECK, not sure relevant, seemed to work without problems: Extension:ContactPage has special installation (MW1.23+) https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ContactPage#Installation
  1. * Extension:GlobalUsage has no more class names with underscore. Adjust configuration of $wgLBFactoryConf in LocalSettings.php see also http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=db.php
  • Extension:Vector is in core MW 1.22+, separate installation is no longer necessary (require_once("…"))

Dependencies:

  • Extension:TimedMediaHandler dependent on Extension:MwEmbedSupport
  • biowikifarm Extension:MobileKeyV1, Extension:MobileKeyV2 are dependent on Extension:TemplateParameterIndex
  • Extension:BetaFeatures is a light dependency of Extension:MultimediaViewer

No further development
