Bug ID: 68489
Summary: When using hhvm, CurlHttpRequest::execute times out
Product: MediaWiki-Vagrant
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Macintosh
OS: Mac OS X 10.9
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General

Bug noted on Mac OS X 10.9.3, using Vagrant 1.6.3 and Virtualbox 4.3.12. As per
the standard vagrantfile, it was using a static IP and nfs.
Many things in MediaWiki require it to make calls to external APIs. It seems
that when hhvm is on, CurlHttpRequest::execute always times out. I noticed this
with uploads particularly.
Enabling the zend role fixed the problem, so it seems to be specific to hhvm.
Problems that I noticed:
* when using instantCommons, uploads always time out. The reason is because
MediaWiki is checking to see if the upload is already on Commons, and the
request times out.
* when using UploadWizard (or other upload-by-url pages) to get files from
Flickr, the request always times out, because Flickr API requests are timing
out.
To see this behavior:
$ vagrant enable-role hhvm
$ vagrant enable-role uploadwizard
If change 148505 (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/148505/) hasn't landed
yet, make sure to add the following to your LocalSettings, to allow the kinds
of uploads I mentioned.
$wgInstantCommons = true;
$wgAllowCopyUploads = true;
$wgGroupPermissions["*"]["upload_by_url"] = true;
Then, you can try using UploadWizard to:
- Upload any image file
- Upload any file from an appropriately licensed Flickr URL
(https://www.flickr.com/photos/brevity/10423091326/ is fine; if you need more
use the advanced search to find CC-BY and CC-BY-SA files).
