OK, there is a new version on testing.

This was a big upgrade for the package since it was somewhat abandoned for some time (despite having a very good level rating). So, I urge you to take some caution with this testing upgrade. I have personally tested a new install and upgrade so far.

New changes:

  • LDAP Support (using new supported LDAP Stack)
  • Set requirement of >= Yunohost 3.6
  • Allow to configure “wiki name” when installing

This new installation method involves copying over a new LocalSettings.php. So please note that any modifications to this file will be overwritten by the new packaging process.

I am not sure what is the case when you have already created a number of wiki users (because you did not have LDAP support before) and now LDAP is enabled. I have not tested this. You should experiment with a backup/restore of your application for this use case. Please see YunoHost • index for more.

See the following for upgrade commands:

GitHub - YunoHost-Apps/mediawiki_ynh: MediaWiki package for YunoHost

Feedback is much appreciated!

Hello,

I tried to deploy the extension and received an error about package/file availability
https://paste.yunohost.org/raw/aqibewoqak
any chance for un update or this package is abandoned ?

c.f. https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/mediawiki_ynh/issues/17 … Supposedly the issue shouldn’t be too hard to fix, it should be just about updating the hashes in the *.src files in there https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/mediawiki_ynh/tree/master/conf

I would gladly help but without any development skills i 'm a bit useless

Installation failed! The reason according to the log: The password has be at least 10 characters long while in the YH interfavce it says 8 characters are enough. After making the password longer, installation worked without issue.

I tried to install Mediawiki today and failed due a 404 error related to extension download.
Here is my full log https://paste.yunohost.org/raw/xufewadugi
