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.

Skins
Since Mediawiki V1.25 the default skins are in separate Git respositories. To be installed manually, OR via composer (Vector).
Note: Vector uses COMPOSER! BUT STILL RUN FOR mwSkinNaturkunde.git

Install composer extensions
Newer extensions must be dealt with at level of /var/www-wiki. Documentation
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Composer
- https://getcomposer.org/doc/
- removing these extensions: https://getcomposer.org/doc/03-cli.md#remove
##↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
# 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 (linked into /var/www/.../w/). # Problem: we also need composer.json and composer.lock files (created on first compopser install in the var-www-wikis). # However, /maintenance/update.php ... fails to run. Thus we need, from an earlier install, copy the files and add symlinks:
TODO: use global vars AND put it into the template rather than into the example wiki v-on/w25!!!
# NOTE: 1. DO NOT RERUN THIS SCRIPT! 2. This uses an EXAMPLE wiki path, not the template path. TODO: test with a template wiki next time!
# rename composer.json to composer.distrib.json if updating from existing installs:
# sudo mv ${usr_share_wiki_path}/composer.json ${usr_share_wiki_path}/composer.distrib.json
## TODO: cp composer.* to ${usr_share_wiki_path}/composer.json
sudo rm /var/www/v-on/w25/composer.*
sudo ln -s ${usr_share_wiki_path}/composer.json /var/www/v-on/w25/composer.json
sudo ln -s ${usr_share_wiki_path}/composer.lock /var/www/v-on/w25/composer.lock
Notes:
- Update the /usr/share/mediawikiXX/composer.json file with the desired composer-installed extensions
- For all these extensions, remove the include statements you have in your LocalSettings.php file.
- Not for this fresh install, but for later changes within a version: remove folder located in usr-share-extensions
Run composer (EXAMPLE WIKI!):
# First time (writing both into vendor and extension folders):
# cd /var/www/v-on/w25; sudo php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar install
# Later (harmless to re-run):
cd /var/www/v-on/w25; sudo php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar update
sudo chown www-data:www-data -R "${usr_share_extension_path}"
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 $wgScriptPath and $wgArticlePath
- 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.php script and conf= syntax and use option --dbuser=wikiadmin (because certain tables may need to be created anew):
cd /var/www/v-on/w25;
sudo -u www-data php ./maintenance/runJobs.php -v --procs 4 --conf=./LocalSettings.php
# rebuildData.php
# -f Fully delete all content instead of just refreshing
# -t refresh only type pages
# -c refresh only category pages
# -p refresh only property pages
# -v be verbose about the progress
# rebuild data completely from scratch
# sudo -u www-data php ./extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/maintenance/rebuildData.php --dbuser=wikiadmin -fv --conf=./LocalSettings.php
# just update relevant data
sudo -u www-data php ./extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/maintenance/rebuildData.php --dbuser=wikiadmin -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
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
- * 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
- problem support https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:StringFunctions is terminated
- there is a Lua module https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Module:String instead. Docu says String functions except urlencode/decode are in ParserFunctions extension, but string parts no longer documented there.
Installation Problems/Issues
Issues Semantic MediaWiki
- new SMW edit help can be disabled:
$smwgEnabledEditPageHelp=false; # default true
- since Semantic Forms 3.0+ form definition work only for [[property:Has default form]] or
- all semantic date may need a rebuild:
# just update data
sudo -u www-data php ./extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/maintenance/rebuildData.php --dbuser=wikiadmin -v --conf=./LocalSettings.php
# -f fully delete all data and rebuid them from scratch
# sudo -u www-data php ./extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/maintenance/rebuildData.php --dbuser=wikiadmin -fv --conf=./LocalSettings.php
Semantic Forms:
- some message keys, if modified previously, may need to be updated: look on
Special:AllMessages
for prefix “sf_”
Issues Gallery
MW 1.22+ 'mode' => 'traditional' needs to be defined:
1 $wgGalleryOptions = array (

5 'captionLength' => 40, // Length of caption to truncate (in characters)
6 'showBytes' => true, // Show the filesize in bytes in categories
