Description
From the announcements list:
I am happy to announce the availability of the first stable release of the new MediaWiki 1.23 release series.
MediaWiki 1.23 is a large release that contains many new features and bug fixes. This is a summary of the major changes of interest to users. You can consult the RELEASE-NOTES-1.23 file for the full list of changes in this version.
This is a Long Term Support release (LTS) and will be supported until May 2017.
Our thanks to everyone who helped to improve MediaWiki by testing the release candidates and submitting bug reports.
What's new?
- MediaWiki 1.23 includes all changes released in the smaller 1.23wmfX software deployments to Wikimedia sites.
Skin autodiscovery deprecated
Skin autodiscovery, the legacy skin installation mechanism used by MediaWiki since very early versions (around 2004), has been officially deprecated and will be removed in MediaWiki 1.25.
- MediaWiki 1.23 will emit warnings in production if a skin using the deprecated mechanism is found.
- See Manual:Skin autodiscovery for more information and a migration guide for site admins and skin developers.
Notifications
With 1.23, MediaWiki starts to behave more like a modern website as regards notifications, to keep the editors of your wiki engaged and always up to date about what interests them. This used to require several custom settings.
- (bug 45020) Make preferences "Add pages I create and files I upload to my watchlist" and "pages and files I edit" true by default.
- (bug 45022) Make preference "Email me when a page or file on my watchlist is changed" true by default.
- (bug 49719) Watch user page and user talk page by default.
This will allow your new users to immediately start benefiting from the watchlist and email notification features, without needing to first read all the docs to find out that they're as useful as they are.
Merged extensions
Merged into 1.23:
- ExpandTemplates (bug 28264).
- AssertEdit (bug 27841) - documented at API:Assert.
Interface
- (bug 42026) Add option to only show page creations in Special:Contributions (and API).
- Add new special page to list duplicate files, Special:ListDuplicatedFiles.
- (bug 60333) Add new special page listing tracking categories (Special:TrackingCategories).
Editing
- A new special page Special:Diff was added, allowing users to create internal links to revision comparison pages using syntax such as Special:Diff/12345, Special:Diff/12345/prev or Special:Diff/12345/98765.
Help pages
With 1.23, MediaWiki begins a process of consolidation of its help pages. Now, most are using the Translate extension and can be easily translated and updated in hundreds languages.
In the coming months, we'll focus on making more of the central help pages translatable and on linking them from the relevant MediaWiki interfaces for better discoverability. Please help: add your own translations; update existing pages and cover missing MediaWiki topics.
Traditionally, help pages have been scattered on countless wikis and poorly translated; most of those on mediawiki.org were migrated with the help of some Google Code-in students.
CSS refresh for Vector
- Various Vector CSS properties have been converted to LESS variables.
- The font size of #bodyContent/.mw-body-content has been increased to 0.875em.
- The line-height of #bodyContent/.mw-body-content has been increased to 1.6.
- The line-height of superscript (sup) and subscript (sub) are now set to 1.
- The default color for content text (but not the headers) is now #252525; (dark grey).
- All headers have updated sizes and margins.
- H1 and H2 headers now use a serif font.
- Body font is "sans-serif" as always.
For more information see Typography refresh.
Configuration
Add Config and GlobalConfig classes:
- Allows configuration options to be fetched from context.
- Only one implementation, GlobalConfig, is provided, which simply returns $GLOBALS[$name]. There can be more classes in the future, possibly a database-based one. For convinience the "wg" prefix is automatically added.
- This adds the $wgConfigClass global variable which is used to determine which implementation of Config to use by default.
- The ContextSource getConfig and setConfig methods were introduced.

I'd suggest we upgrade to this version and then perhaps stick with it, only doing security updates, until we need to move to another version due to it no longer being supported or because we need some new functionality.

It's OK to update it if we need to do it due to a security update - I can't ascertain if that is the case. Is that the case?

Not yet, the version we are running will go out of support at some point but not sure when that is. The latest version is a long term support version so switching to that and then sticking with it unless there is a new feature we need should make security updates easier for the medium term -- we did run with a LTS version for a long time before, 1.19.x, see wiki:MediaWiki#Updates.

Switching to a .deb for Parsoid, following the docs and referencing the last install, ticket:706#comment:10:
/etc/init.d/pslparsoid stop echo "deb http://parsoid.wmflabs.org:8080/debian wmf-production/" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/parsoid.list apt-get update && apt-get install parsoid Adding group `parsoid' (GID 114) ... Done. Adding system user `parsoid' (UID 110) ... Adding new user `parsoid' (UID 110) with group `parsoid' ... Not creating home directory `/usr/lib/parsoid'. Started Parsoid server on port 8142
The key files this installed, and which need checking, are:
/etc/default/parsoid /etc/mediawiki/parsoid/settings.js /etc/init.d/parsoid /etc/logrotate.d/parsoid
These lines were edited in /etc/mediawiki/parsoid/settings.js:
// chris
//parsoidConfig.setInterwiki( 'localhost', 'http://localhost/w/api.php' );
parsoidConfig.setInterwiki( 'localhost', 'http://wiki.transitionnetwork.org/api.php' );
// chris
//parsoidConfig.allowCORS = '*';
parsoidConfig.allowCORS = 'wiki.transitionnetwork.org';
These lines were changed in /etc/default/parsoid:
# chris INTERFACE="127.0.0.1" #INTERFACE="0.0.0.0" # chris DAEMON_ARGS="-n 2 -c $PARSOID_SETTINGS_FILE" #DAEMON_ARGS="-c $PARSOID_SETTINGS_FILE"
We are now running on a different port, so /web/wiki.transitionnetwork.org/www/LocalSettings.php was edited and these lines were changed:
//$wgVisualEditorParsoidURL = 'http://localhost:8000'; $wgVisualEditorParsoidURL = 'http://localhost:8142';
Test it:
lynx http://localhost:8142/
Parsoid appears to be working OK but editing via https://wiki.transitionnetwork.org/ isn't...
Tried:
cd /usr/lib/parsoid npm install npm WARN package.json parsoid@0.0.1 No README data npm WARN unmet dependency /usr/lib/parsoid/node_modules/handlebars/node_modules/uglify-js requires async@'~0.2.6' but will load npm WARN unmet dependency /usr/lib/parsoid/node_modules/async, npm WARN unmet dependency which is version 0.8.0
That didn't solve it... Perhaps this, above, is the issue Not creating home directory `/usr/lib/parsoid'. so:
aptitude remove parsoid rm -rf /usr/lib/parsoid aptitude install parsoid cd /usr/lib/parsoid npm install npm WARN package.json parsoid@0.0.1 No README data npm WARN unmet dependency /usr/lib/parsoid/node_modules/handlebars/node_modules/uglify-js requires async@'~0.2.6' but will load npm WARN unmet dependency /usr/lib/parsoid/node_modules/async, npm WARN unmet dependency which is version 0.8.0

But the editor still isn't working, so, trying a re-install:

Still not working :-(

- Add Hours to Ticket changed from 0.0 to 2.0
- Total Hours changed from 2.71 to 4.71
Spent some time looking at the Ngnix config to see if I could spot the problem.
Backing up the site files and installing everything from scratch, past upgrade have overwritten old files with new ones:
cd /web/wiki.transitionnetwork.org/ export MW="1.23.0" wget http://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.23/mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz -O mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz wget http://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.23/mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz.sig -O mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz.sig gpg --verify mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz.sig tar -zxvf mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz wget https://github.com/DaSchTour/piwik-mediawiki-extension/archive/master.zip -O Piwik.zip unzip Piwik.zip mv piwik-mediawiki-extension-master mediawiki-1.23.0/extensions/Piwik rm Piwik.zip wget https://codeload.github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-VisualEditor/legacy.tar.gz/REL1_23 -O VisualEditor.tgz tar -zxvf VisualEditor.tgz mv wikimedia-mediawiki-extensions-VisualEditor-634b141 mediawiki-1.23.0/extensions/VisualEditor rm VisualEditor.tgz cp www/LocalSettings.php mediawiki-1.23.0/ chown root:root -R www/ cp -a www/images mediawiki-1.23.0/images chown -R www-data:www-data mediawiki-1.23.0/cache/ chown -R www-data:www-data mediawiki-1.23.0/images/ mv www/ old/ mv mediawiki-1.23.0 www /etc/init.d/php5-fpm restart /etc/init.d/nginx restart
That didn't fix it.
Updated the nginx config:

location ~ /(api|img_auth|index|load|opensearch_desc|profileinfo|thumb|thumb_handler?$ {

Looks like it's working fine.

Following the suggestions from Subramanya, installing the Parsoid extension:
cd /web/wiki.transitionnetwork.org wget https://codeload.github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-Parsoid/legacy.tar.gz/REL1_23 -O Parsoid.tgz tar -zxvf Parsoid.tgz mv wikimedia-mediawiki-extensions-Parsoid-8da3673 www/extensions/Parsoid rm -rf Parsoid.tgz rm -rf wikimedia-mediawiki-extensions-Parsoid-8da3673/
Adding the following to LocalSettings.php as per the notes Subramanya linked to:
// http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitext-l/2014-June/000883.html
require_once("$IP/extensions/Parsoid/Parsoid.php");
require_once("$IP/extensions/VisualEditor/VisualEditor.php");
// OPTIONAL: Enable VisualEditor in other namespaces
// By default, VE is only enabled in NS_MAIN
//$wgVisualEditorNamespaces[] = NS_PROJECT;
// Enable by default for everybody
$wgDefaultUserOptions['visualeditor-enable'] = 1;
// Don't allow users to disable it
$wgHiddenPrefs[] = 'visualeditor-enable';
This hasn't made any difference -- nothing happens when the 'Edit' link is clicked.

Removing the Parsoid extension following the email from Gabriel, this line were commented in LocalSettings.php:
//require_once("$IP/extensions/Parsoid/Parsoid.php");
And it was deleted:
rm -rf www/extensions/Parsoid/

Following the email from James Forrester:
sudo -i cd /web/wiki.transitionnetwork.org wget https://releases.wikimedia.org/VisualEditor/VisualEditor-MediaWiki-REL1_23.tar.bz2 sha1sum VisualEditor-MediaWiki-REL1_23.tar.bz2 7cd90271f91b8ded9d6aae3f9166a11d3c7d0ee9 VisualEditor-MediaWiki-REL1_23.tar.bz2 bunzip2 VisualEditor-MediaWiki-REL1_23.tar.bz2 tar -xvf VisualEditor-MediaWiki-REL1_23.tar mv VisualEditor-REL1_23 www/extensions/VisualEditor rm -rf www/extensions/VisualEditor/
But that didn't appear to change anything, I also re-tried installing the Parsoid extension as per ticket:736#comment:10 and this also didn't change anything.
I have sent another email to the list.
Sorry this is turning out to be a lengthy process, with hindsight we should have perhaps waited till December to do the upgrade.

A fix has been made, see also VisualEditor: REL1_23 branch not compatible with MediaWiki 1.23 and a new version of MediaWiki is out:
I'm not 100% sure that this fix made it into this version, but I'll try this first, so:
cd /web/wiki.transitionnetwork.org export MW="1.23.1" wget http://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.23/mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz -O mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz wget http://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.23/mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz.sig -O mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz.sig gpg --verify mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz.sig tar -zxvf mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz rsync -av mediawiki-$MW/ www/ chown root:root -R www/ chown -R www-data:www-data www/cache/ chown -R www-data:www-data www/images/ cd www/maintenance/ php update.php cd /web/wiki.transitionnetwork.org rm mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz mediawiki-$MW.tar.gz.sig rm -rf mediawiki-$MW
And the VisualEditor isn't working, so following https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor#Download
cd /web/wiki.transitionnetwork.org/www/extensions mv VisualEditor VisualEditor.dist git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/VisualEditor.git cd VisualEditor git checkout REL1_23 git submodule update --init
And now it works :-)

It doesn't ring a bell...
In any case it is free as in freedom :-)
When we speak of “free software”, we're talking about freedom, not price. (Think of “free speech”, not “free beer”.) Specifically, it means that a user is free to run the program, change the program, and redistribute the program with or without changes.

- Status changed from reopened to closed

Re-closing as it was re-opened by mistake.
Reading the release notes, https://git.wikimedia.org/blob/mediawiki%2Fcore.git/1.23.0/RELEASE-NOTES-1.23 there don't appear to be any issues we need to be aware of.
These are the current versions, taken from https://wiki.transitionnetwork.org/Special:Version
Going through these one by one:
So the only, potentially, complicated issue here is switching from a version of Parsoid checked out from git to a .deb version, but once that has been done it's another application that can be updated via the regular debian update process, which is a good thing.
Ed is it OK if I proceed on this basis:
