Description

Author: bugzilla

Description:
Apache2.0 + PHP5.1 + MySQL5.0 + MW1.15.1 + Configure0.13.7 on Red Hat RHEL 4.6 in a wikifarm setup - multiple wiki's with independent LocalSettings, independent databases and symlinked codebase.
Wiki instances behave erratically when configuring with Configure; creating a change in one part of a configuration erases another part. Example: configuration run 1 changes the logo, run 2 creates groups with different right assignments; after this the logo setting is erased. When fixing the logo setting in run 3, the group assignments are lost.
(re)Configuring the wiki in a single run in which each configuration section is individually opened so that all current settings are "exposed" in the browser session does not remedy the problem.

I couldn't say - I've given up on using Configure since I never ever saw it working correctly, even though I've tested it on 3 different platforms (RHEL/CentOS/Debian).

Jan, per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Configure the current version of Configure is 0.16.1 (24 February 2011) -- when was the last time you tried it? Adding the Configure developer to the cc list.

Haven't retried after end of '09, so 0.13.7 is the last version I tested. I'll try to test with 0.16.1 this weekend.

[Setting open "Configure" extension bug reports to a lower priority to reflect reality && resetting assignee to nobody (Bugzilla required a default assignee but in Phabricator the extension maintainer is listed as a watcher of the product anyway and will receive notifications)]
