Re: [Wikitech-l] Reverted to 1.28.0-wmf.8 once more.

Final update:

Anomie's theory was spot on. 1.29.0-wmf.9 has been deployed to all wikis
for ~7 hours and appears to be stable.

I've filed a follow-up task for the root cause. It will very likely bite us
in the future if not properly addressed. Further discussion is on
phabricator: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T156541

Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this and especially to Anomie for
getting to the bottom of it.

Have a great weekend everyone!

[Wikitech-l] CREDIT next week, and a survey

2017-01-27 Thread Adam Baso 
Hi everybody!

As a reminder the CREDIT Showcase is next week on Wednesday,
1-February-2017 (see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/CREDIT_showcase for
details). Also, as I mentioned previously we're conducting a survey about
CREDIT. We'd appreciate your feedback! Here is a link to the survey (which
is hosted on a third-party service), and, for information about privacy and
data handling, the survey privacy statement.

https://docs.google.com/a/wikimedia.org/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSedAtyPfcEhT6OVd26Y-3v_jm3yM3ShvMqgAWBUPxb24u_Y9g/viewform

https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/CREDIT_Feedback_Survey_Privacy_Statement
.

This email is being sent to several mailing lists in order to reach
multiple audiences. As always, please follow the list link at the very
bottom of this email in case you want to manage your list subscription
options such as digest, unsubscribe, and so on.

And, as usual, if you'd like to share the news about the upcoming CREDIT,
here's some suggested verbiage.

*Hi *

*I hope all is well with you! I wanted to let you know about CREDIT, a
monthly demo series that we’re running to showcase open source tech
projects from Wikimedia’s Community, Reading, Editing, Discovery,
Infrastructure and Technology teams. *

*CREDIT is open to the public, and we welcome questions and discussion. The
next CREDIT will be held on February 1st at 11am PT / 2pm ET / 19:00 UTC. *

*There’s more info on MediaWiki
, and on Etherpad
, which is where we take notes and
ask questions. You can also ask questions on IRC in the Freenode chatroom
#wikimedia-office (web-based access here
). Links to
video will become available at these locations shortly before the event.*

*Please feel free to pass this information along to any interested folks.
Our projects tend to focus on areas that might be of interest to folks
working across the open source tech community: language detection,
numerical sort, large data visualizations, maps, and all sorts of other
things.*

*If you have any questions, please let me know! Thanks, and I hope to see
you at CREDIT.*

*YOURNAME*


Thanks!

Hi Mathieu,

Not sure if that is what you are imagining, but there is one link under the
"View History" tab, called "Page view statistics" (Extenal links section).
It brings you to the Pageviews Analysis Tool, already showing stats for
that particular page for the last 20 days.

Cheers!

I'm not sure whether to go ahead and revert all wikis or leave it like it
is for now.

Hi Nuria,

As far as I know, there is no direct access to count of pageviews 
directly on pages, is there? What about add one, along the "This page 
was last modified on" message at the bottom of the page?


Accountably,

[Wikitech-l] Reverted to 1.28.0-wmf.8 once more.

2017-01-27 Thread Mukunda Modell 
The deployment of MediaWiki 1.29.0-wmf.9 is currently blocked and all wikis
have been reverted to wmf.8.  This latest revert is due to excessive
warnings which appeared in logs immediately after deploying to group2. The
warnings all read as follows:

Warning: Empty regular expression in
/srv/mediawiki/php-1.29.0-wmf.9/includes/parser/DateFormatter.php on line
200

This issue is tracked in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T156364 and
currently blocks further deployments.

More background:

A similar flood of log spam occurred after deploying the branch to group1,
however, the problem subsided after a while and did not reappear until
Thursday's deployment.

There have been recent changes to DateFormatter.php, however, the changes
do not appear to be the direct culprit. In fact, after rolling back the
changes, a different message appears in the log, however, with less
frequency than the line 200 error.

Several engineers have looked at this issue but so far we have not isolated
the root cause. Additional eyes on this issue would be welcomed and further
discussion should be directed to Phabricator. In the interest of keeping
everyone in the loop, I will follow up in this thread if/when there is a
resolution.

Regards,
Mukunda
