2) in the wiki VBMEDIAWIKI location, when I click on ADMIN TOOLS, I get :** Access denied! ***:

3) Same area I try to go to DIAGNOSTICS and I get

1 of 7: Checking MediaWiki Installation

Fatal error: Class 'SiteConfiguration' not found in /home/lawiki/public_html/includes/DefaultSettings.php on line 32

I am now on vb 4.2 patch 2 and mediawiki 1.19.2

1. the edit permission issue: it appears to be a problem (in vb 4.2 only or other versions also?) due to token issues. For some reason, the token is not being created for "new" wiki users.

one fix that has worked for me is to run: php resetUserTokens.php in wiki/maintenance/
I have create a updated version resetUserTokensNull.php that only sets the tokens for users who do not have one. And i set it up as a cron job every hour... This is the best solution i can find so far.

2. and 3. the diagnostics /admin tools appears to be broken for good.


There seems to be another issue with the way caching is being done in SpankMe's version. Memcached cache performance has falled from close to 100% to ~75% (that is a HUGE difference). Not sure why.

Lastly: for not-logged-in users, instead of login at the top right of the wiki (using the Vector skin), see this

    <0>    Back to the Forum

where the &lt... links to the logout link...



SpankMe? : Please create this mod as a new thread as it has undergone so many changes.
