[Alfresco 3c] Mediawiki Amp

[rbergstrom]

Hello:

The Mediawiki integration amp was listed as part of release 3c, but I can't locate the amp in any of the released packages.  Any pointers as to where I can find it?

Thanks,

I was also searching for it since couple of days and I could not able to find it. We contacted Alfresco team for the same.

have you gotten any answers?

I found a dev nightly build version of Mediawiki integration AMP file and I will posts the link with in 15 minutes.

I was searching for Mediawiki amp file on forums and somebody listed out dev nightly build URL for PHP integration amp file. I also found a nightly build version of MediawikiInetgration amp file there

http://dev.alfresco.com/downloads/nightly/dist/

Note: I don’t know the stability of this but I will integrate this and let you know the status.

I too found the nightly build version, however I am getting database connection error after you get past the login page.  I am not sure if this is a compatibility issue or not, however alfresco is working just fine.

Can you please POST the database error message? 

Even we got some DB problem, but I believe we ended up using MySQL Database Password as NULL (nothing) and it worked after that…

Here is the error:

/var/lib/tomcat-6/webapps/alfresco/php/wiki/includes/Database.php:540: Warning: A link to the server could not be established. url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/ driver=com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlConnectionPoolDataSource com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure Last packet sent to the server was 0 ms ago. [mysql_errno]

Now, I noticed that the URL is wrong, but even changing the LocalSettings.php in the Mediawiki PHP code doesn't seem to help.  Further down the page:

(Can't contact the database server: Unknown error (10.XX.XX.XX))
‍‍‍

The IP address is the IP address of our database server, so some configuration is coming through.

This is the nagging question:  Given the alfresco extension is going through an external API, why is MediaWiki going at the database at all?  Do I have something else setup wrong?

Alfresco and Mediawiki uses the same Alfresco repository (for example My SQL DB - Alfresco). Look at the installation steps once again. Alll you need is Alfresco, PHP Integration and Mediawiki Integration amp files. Do not install Mediawiki standard version (also don't need install PHP full version). Basically, AMP files do the magic work for you.
