Before you post

• Check the FAQ and Errors and symptoms .
• If your question is about a specific feature, check the relevant technical manual , end-user help or extension page and consider asking on its talk page .
• For issues about the mediawiki.org website, report to Village Pump instead.
• Ask technical questions about Wikimedia websites on meta:Tech instead.

Post a new question

1. To help us answer your questions, please indicate which version of MediaWiki you are using, as found on your wiki's Special:Version page:
2. If possible, add $wgShowExceptionDetails = true;error_reporting( -1 );ini_set( 'display_errors', 1 ); to LocalSettings.php in order to make MediaWiki show more detailed error messages.
3. Please include the web address (URL) to your wiki if possible. It's often easier for us to identify the source of the problem if we can see the error directly.
4. To start a new thread, click the box with the text "Start a new topic".

Attempting to Update

I can post the full logs if needed.

Our staging environment is down "no healthy upstream" and our final pipeline tests are not passing because there is 'no matching files'

I have reached out to our hosting company, ironbank, and canasta to see if they had any insight. I am out of my scope here so any thoughts anybody has would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and expertise.

I recently upgraded my Media Wiki to the latest stable version. I followed all the procedures I do in any other upgrade except this time there were a few issues. The first and most major issue is the fact that the Visual Editor is not working. When you click the "edit" tab the web page URL changes to show you are editing but the actual page does not change. I already tried re-installing the extension, but I still get the same issue. My search bar is also not working as it did before. It no longer gives me page suggestions while I am typing but that might just be a new thing in the update?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

That sounds like your Javascript resources are not served up correctly ? A browser inspector should be able to tell you these things.

Thank you.

I'm having similar trouble after upgrading Mediawiki to v1.42.1. The progress bar starts but then gets stuck, and inspecting the browser Developer tools I see that the following request is erroring in a 502 Bad Gateway:

I tried testing the request against the single resources being requested, and found that all resources are accounted for except for the last four. A request for only the last four (https://en.seminaverbi.bibleget.io/w/load.php?lang=en&skin=vector-2022&version=18at9&modules=icons-media%2Cicons-moderation%2Cicons-movement%2Cicons-user) will result in:

mw.loader.state({"icons-media":"missing","icons-moderation":"missing","icons-movement":"missing","icons-user":"missing"});

How and where should these resources be generated? Can I use npm or yarn somewhere within my mediawiki installation? Perhaps within the /extensions/VisualEditor folder? However I'm not seeing a package.json in that folder anywhere. Perhaps if I copy and paste them from a source to their wanted destination, I just need an indication of the source and the destination...

I've already posted about this error but now I've this detailed error while installing the GlobalBlocking extension and I've followed everything mentioned in Extension:GlobalBlocking but facing this problem can anyone help

When you login/register, it is running a check by the user against the global blocking table.

Access denied for user '36900384_a'@'192.168.0.%' to database 'globalblocking'

User 36900384_an accessing via '192.168.0.%' cannot read or write to the globalblocking table. You'll have to fix that, it is a database configuration problem.

Ok it's a database configuration problem but how can I fix this can you give me little bit idea.

It's not really a MediaWiki issue and very much depends on how your server is setup. I'm assuming that access to other tables works ?

https://www.google.com/search?q=mysql+granting+permissions+to+a+table

Stack overflow should have lots of answers as well.

It should be noted, that access denied might literally mean access denied, but in many setups you will get the same error if you simply forgot to create the database.

This was solved by making some changes in database but now another problem has been shown to me.

This problem has gone but now I've another problem like this MediaWiki internal error.

Original exception: [ZqODYk6fQHQg5OQmWuIAhQAAAAs] / Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError: A database query error has occurred. Did you forget to run your application's database schema updater after upgrading or after adding a new extension?

Please see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Upgrading and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:How_to_debug for more information.

Error 1146: Table 'if0_36900384_globalblocking.mwfm_l10n_cache' doesn't exist Function: LCStoreDB::get Query: SELECT lc_value FROM `mwfm_l10n_cache` WHERE lc_lang = 'en' AND lc_key = 'deps' LIMIT 1

This sounds like you changed the mediawiki db name ($wgDBname) to your globalblocking db, which would be the wrong thing to do.

So what should I do.

Post upgrade, the Version page of Special Pages is now throwing 4 errors. Upgrading Composer on Windows didn't help. What do we need to do to fix this? Thanks!

Which version of composer do you have installed ? Since 1.42, MediaWiki requires composer version 2, so that might be related.

My wiki is consuming memory at an alarming rate. It is 20 gigs past where it should be.

I have deleted the image temp, archive, and thumbs folders. I have reduced the default thumb images to a single size. These purges produce temporary and tiny reductions but soon enough the numbers are right back where they were.

When I have less visitors it happens slower, when I have more visitors it increases faster. I am the only one who can add images.

Do I have a virus or a hacker, or just a bloated folder somewhere?

You should try to identify which parts of your applications take up most space. Based on your operating system there are different ways to do that. On Linux you can use du -hcs ./* | sort -h within your MediaWiki installation directory. You can then dive into the largest folders and execute this command again. That way you may be able to identify where the data is. Then you need to decide yourself if it looks suspicious.

An error occurred: Error 1044: Access denied for user '12345_wiki'@'%' to database 'virtual' Function: Wikimedia\Rdbms\DatabaseMySQL::doSelectDomain Query: USE `virtual`

Please help.

Do you run a separate wgOATHAuthDatabase (and/or what is the current setting) or do you use wgSharedTables ?

I downloaded the 1.42.1 package from the MediaWiki website, sent the contents of the files from this package to the FTP server, overwriting the current ones. I started the update process.

Example:

mysite.pl/wiki/mw-config

I entered the $wgUpgradeKey from LocalSettings.php on the update page and then I get these errors.

And I don't understand why I have a connection error:

An error occurred: Error 1044: Access denied for user '12345_wiki'@'%' to database 'virtual' Function: Wikimedia\Rdbms\DatabaseMySQL::doSelectDomain Query: USE `virtual`

And I don't understand why I have this error:

/home/xx/xx/x/wiki/extensions/OATHAuth/maintenance/updateTOTPScratchTokensToArray.php...

I don't have anything like $wgOATHAuthDatabase or wgSharedTables in the LocalSettings.php file

Ah.

> overwriting the current ones

But that doesn't delete the files that have been removed, which can cause issues when loading the site. Please read again Manual:Upgrading.

Additionally, you didn't update your extensions yet and therefor your OathAuth extension is not compatible with this newer MediaWiki version. You can either choose to update all your extensions, or a bit easier / less confusing, can be to

1. first disable all your extension in LocalSettings.php
2. upgrade the core with the updater
3. install the newer versions of extensions
4. re-enable the extensions in your LocalSettings.php
5. run the updater again to ensure the extensions can run all their updates

I tried to put the displaytitle on a page of a wiki I'm in, but all I got was this: "Display title "United Kingdomball" was ignored since it is not equivalent to the page's actual title."

This was the context of how I want to add it:

The title of the page is called "UKball", but I placed the code {{DISPLAYTITLE:United Kingdomball}}. The DISPLAYTITLE code ended up failing as a result, and I want to ask: How can I overcome this problem (which is changing the page's display title to something that isn't "related" to the actual title)?

Ypu need to set $wgRestrictDisplayTitle = false; in LocalSettings.php

I'm having this issue with infoboxes (that IIRC I imported from the Miraheze Developers Wiki). I didn't have this issue when I originally imported them, something has broken. I can't find anything online about this specific error.

Please see "Post a new question" in the sidebar.

If that's a request for more information, my wiki is cyberpedia.miraheze.org and the MediaWiki version is 1.42.1

Does miraheze have a global lua module system? If so, this sounds like it would be related to that. You might have better luck at miraheze support.

We havent altered localsettings.php (to my knowledge) and now everyone is getting this error, seemingly out of nowhere, when people try to use their preferences area:

Hello and greetings,

I have a few questions. Firstly, I would like to change the logo of our Wikipedia (dv:wikipedia) . The current font is very old and outdated. Secondly, the font and size used throughout the Wikipedia need to be updated as well. Can anyone guide me in the right direction? Glacious (talk) 10:02, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
