Just played around with an extension for the MediaWiki <\/a>wiki. Collection <\/a>is the name of the devil :-). Installing was no problem but in the end when I requested the first .pdf I only got back a beautiful\u00a0shiny white site. Of course some HTML tags were included, but no sign of the expected .pdf file. Hmm,… so I started my investigations.<\/p>\n

The server OS is an Ubuntu<\/a> Karmic <\/em><\/strong><\/em>with PHP 5.2.x and apache 2.2.x ……..<\/p>\n

After an hour I found out that a bug\/feature seems to prevent the wm-server to give back the generated lr =>pdf files. The NET suggest,… upgrade to PHP 5.3.\u00a0 So if you have no clue, do what the\u00a0NET suggests. But Ubuntu Karmic <\/em>does not have PHP 5.3 as packages available. So, what to do…. I\u00a0always wanted to do a dist-upgrade on an live system :-).<\/p>\n

No sooner said than done! I fired up the upgrade.<\/p>\n

\r\n aptitude update\r\n aptitude install dpkg aptitude get\r\n aptitude install dpkg aptitude aptaptitude install dpkg aptitude apt\r\n aptitude safe-upgrade\r\n<\/pre>\n
…did do the trick. And you would not believe it, the MediaWiki extension started to work, and I got a new shiny Ubuntu Lucidy <\/em>10.04 LTS.<\/strong><\/p>\n
The story goes on.\u00a0 The main webpage is powerd by a recent version of Typo3<\/a> and for some reason some Typo-Code is using functions which are marked as deprecated in PHP5.3.\u00a0 A nice deprecated warning was now replacing our beautiful sites. Our webmaster won’t be amused :-).\u00a0 No big deal you will think, just disable the corresponding error_reporting…<\/p>\n
\r\nerror_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED\r\n<\/pre>\n
removing E_DEPRECATED<\/em> did not solve my problem whether changing it in php.ini ,htaccess or in the startup code of Typo. So,… the site is down, and i have no clue what’s going on. Once more, I started up googling. After some time\u00a0I found some posts concerning about Typo and that ii uses its own error handler, so changing the PHP-INI variables have no effect. lol, okay so where are this variables. As\u00a0I am not an Typo expert\u00a0I continued my googling session.<\/p>\n
I don’t know\u00a0why but but\u00a0it took me “some” time to find this simple configuration flag where you can shut down the internal error handling\u00a0 of\u00a0 Typo.<\/p>\n
\r\n$TYPO3_CONF_VARS[SYS]['displayErrors'] = 0;\r\n<\/pre>\n
Nice, now our Webmaster\u00a0will be happy and me too \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
