UPDATE THE SAL WITH WHAT YOU DO!
This is a cached copy of the requested page, and may not be up to date (in red)
- Try running 'rebuildFileCache.php' over the wiki
- If you get the message saying the wiki does not exist see Renaming a database
- If the issue persists, fix it!
Mediawiki Magic Word Exceptions
This probably means that the Localisation cache has not updated or someone has enabled an extension on a wiki without it being enabled on extload.
- Make sure the extension is included on extloadwiki
- If the issue persists run 'rebuildLocalisationCache.php --wiki extloadwiki'
- If the issue persists check /var/log/mediawiki/exception.log and fix it!
Unknown database errors everywhere
- Check the dblist located at "/usr/share/nginx/.orain.org/w/all.dblist" looks correct (this should be a list of database|sitename|wikitags)
- If this is incorrect and for example the list is HTML then replace the list with the following "metawiki|Orain Meta|"
- Once this is saved all wikis should be back once the db_list update script is run (which is on a 1 min cron)
- metawiki
- With this commit, metawiki will always online in the event of the dblist becoming corrupted.
Ansible Playbook doesn't appear to be updating
- Is the cronjob for root still there?
- Check /var/log/ansible-pull.log for errors
- Fix them (best bet is probably reverting the changes on github that broke it!)
You changed stuff, stuff broke, you dont know why
- If it was an extension have you read the documentation and done everything required (update.php, dependancies)
- Have you done everything documented currently at our readme
- Try manually flushing the APC cache see here
- Revert your change! or cry and scream until someone else fixes it
Server/nginx dies or is unresponsive
When this happened the web server seemed to totally inaccessible. Hitting any page would not even show / throw a MW exception, nothing would appear in the nginx, mediawiki or syslogs...
service nginx stopservice nginx start- rebuild i18n if it works - if not, looks as the nginx error.log or syslogs.
