Estimation and RoadMap of Implementing Access Control for MediaWiki
The HaloExtension requires necessary pathes and user databases to be updated thus the testing of the HaloExtension on test server will be perfomred first.
Upon succesful testing the HaloExtension will be installed and configured on the real machine.
1 working week will be spent.
1Oct2011
- Install Semantic Tasks (Josef)
$ sudo vi /etc/crontab 0 12 * * * php extensions/SemanticTasks/ST_CheckForReminders.php
15 September 2011
- Install clone of smwiki on the same machine, for testing of new installations
- Test installations there, before copying to the smwiki (mainly concerned LocalSettings.php) and upgrade of Extensions
09Sep2011 automatic generated page for an ActionItem (in ict.unik.no and pshield.unik.no) in MediaWiki:Sidebar
** Special:FormEdit/ActionItem|ActionItem
in Form:ActionItem
page name=<ActionItem[Title]>-AI<unique number;start=001> This is the "ActionItem" form. To create a page with this form, enter the page name below; if a page with that name already exists, you will be sent to a form to edit that page.
call:
http://ict.unik.no/wiki/Special:FormEdit/ActionItem
- Upgrade medaiwiki to v1.17 and semantic medaiwiki to v1.6.1, recommendation longer down
- following the procedure desribed on mediawiki/semantic mediawiki web pages
- FAILED due to inconsistency of databases before and after upgrade
- if some tables don´t exist, create them through patches described on Mediawiki
- our extension where working when applying patches for tables
- after upgrade of mediawiki, semantic mediawiki showed lot´s of error messages
- all images were deleted
- Noted edit, upload, form edit problems after upgrade due to some new tables include in MW v1.71 and SMW v1.61. The problems are fixed at mysql level - a tedious job.
Recommendation
- Backup All LocalSettings files, ./images directory and MySQL database before upgrade.
- disable all Sematic stuff in LocalSettings.php
- upgrade mediawiki then test mediawiki
- enable "one-by-one" semantic extensions, starting with semantic mediawiki
- Upgrade requires compatibility check of already installed extensions. A good thing to upgrade at least all SMW extension to their latest version.

- No need to use cookies
- pshield.unik.no is now on our Linux server, it's no longer on UNIKWIKI machine.
04. Feb 2011
SMTP issue is fixed now, tested with dummy user and working smoothly. However, this functionality depends on UNIK Exchnage server, any change from IT DRIFT can effect this. So, if it will not work need to check with Trond. Email notification comes from wikiadmin@smwiki.unik.no
28. Jan 2011
- smtp when user creates account does not work
20. Jan 2011
- Observation: when you provide link of some page in email, for instance http://smwiki.unik.no/wiki/WPall_20_Jan_2010 do not forget to specify which wiki the apache should call. The previous URL should be http://smwiki.unik.no/wiki/WPall_20_Jan_2010?w=pshield so that if user click on the link the apache can resolve.
20. jan 2011
- Change of mediawiki long URL to pretty URL, which means that /mediawiki/index.php is replace with /wiki
- New URL --> http://smwiki.unik.no/wiki But this requires update of all old links to smwiki.unik.no/mediawiki/index.php especially in side bar.
- No need to redirect on UNIK mediawiki, just type smwiki.unik.no and it will take to the UNIK mediawiki
- case sensitivty for ?w=xxx has been removed.
11. jan 2011
