Hello,
I just moved an existing environment from a SLES 11 SP4 xampp/Bitnami installation to a CentOS 7.4, Apache, MySQL, PHP environment. There were security issues with the original installation, so I had to move to something that I could upgrade components when as vulnerabilities are discovered. According to the documentation, I should be able to export/import the database and then copy over the MediaWiki directory, and all should me good. Well, there are a couple of minor gotcha's in the doc's, but for the most part, it's pretty straight forward. I had a few minor issues with the php, but once I got that figured out, I now get a page that tells me that the site is experiencing technical difficulties (Cannot access the database). I've verified that the database name, user name and password are correct. From the command line, I can access the database using the database user and I can see the tables. I'm not a DBA or a developer, so I'm not sure where to start troubleshooting. Other than verifying that the credentials are correct. The original installation was PHP v5.6.12 and the new installation is PHP v5.6.32. Other than that, I believe everything else is the same. MediaWiki is V1.25. Any suggestions on where to start looking? Thanks Daryl _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list To unsubscribe, go to: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l |
First of all, Mediawiki 1.25 is out of date and has publically known
security vulnerabilities. You should upgrade. For the error, I would start by checking $wgDBServer. If your db is on the same host as mediawiki and commandline is working, it could be something like using network vs local socket. If 'localhost' is not working try '127.0.0.1' instead (or vice versa) Beyond that, I would look into if there is anything preventing mediawiki from talking to the db (e.g. firewall, selinux, etc) -- bawolff On Friday, November 17, 2017, Daryl Rose <[hidden email]> wrote: > Hello, > > I just moved an existing environment from a SLES 11 SP4 xampp/Bitnami > installation to a CentOS 7.4, Apache, MySQL, PHP environment.

Brian,
Thank you for the reply. Yes, I know that v1.25 is out of date and needs to be upgraded. I'll tackle that once I get it migrated over to a new environment. The original environment *WAS *an XAMPP and was installed as a Bitnami package. Because of security vulnerabilities, the entire environment needs to be upgraded. But because I used XAMPP, I can't upgrade Apache, or MySQL or PHP. I would have to wipe out the entire install and do a fresh install. That is not acceptable, so I decided to do what I should have done the first time, install Apache, MySQL, PHP and Mediawiki as individual components. Even though I was successful at accessing the database from the command line, and verifying the contents, I decided to change the password and tried the wiki site again. This time I received an error saying that it could not find the front page. This is actually a step forward. This is telling me that it connected to the database. So now I'm facing path issues. The intitial install was "/opt/lampp/apps/mediawiki/htdocs". The new path is "/var/www/html". After changing the database password, I got the following URL: "<FQDN>/mediawiki/Main_Page". I looked in LocalSettings.php and saw that "$wgArticlePath" was set to "/mediawiki/$1". I removed "mediawiki" from the path, stop/started Apache, but now I get "<FQDN>/Main_Page" in the url bar, and "The requested URL /Main_Page was not found on this server". Looking a little deeper, I see "$wgScriptPath" set to "/mediawiki". I know that isn't correct, so I changed it ".". I didn't know if that would work or not. Apparently not. There is still a path issue somewhere, but I'm not sure where. I know that in the database I saw ""/opt/lampp/apps/mediawiki", but I don't want to start changing paths in the database until I know that I can at least bring up the main page. If there is a path in the database that I need to change, please let me know where to look. Thank you.

I would use a folder and not place mediawiki in the root of web server

John,
Are you suggesting that I create a sub-directory call "Mediawiki" and put the wiki there? I'll give it a try. Thanks.

In reply to this post by John Doe-27
John,
I moved the entire wiki to a sub-directory called "mediawiki". Pointed the DocumentRoot to the path "/var/www/html/mediawiki", stop/started Apache. I'm still getting the same error: *The requested URL /mediawiki/Main_Page was not found on this server.* Is there another setting that I'm missing?

As I said leaving mediawiki in the root (pointing DocumentRoot to the
mediawiki directory) is not recommended. When I set up a wiki I tend to put the code in /wiki and use rewrite rules to make /w the clean URLs. I would also check your rewrite rules too.

John,
As I posted previously, I am not an Apache admin. I know very little about it, and I know nothing of rewrite rules. I had previously tried going directly to the index.php, and I get redirected to the "<FQDN>/mediawiki/Main_Page".

Then it would appear that your rewrite rules are messed up:
<wm-bot>To create simple URLs (such as the /wiki/PAGENAME style URLs on Wikimedia sites), follow the instructions at <http://www.mediawiki. org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL> or try the new beta tool at <http://shorturls. redwerks.org/>. There are instructions for most different webserver setups.

John,
Thank you. I was able to get the rewrite rules to work. I now have the wiki on a new host.
