* | rdbms: Bump the minimum required version of PG to 9.5Amir Sarabadani2022-07-311-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This enabled me to clean up a lot of DatabasePostgres and subsequently clean up a lot of Database class as now insertNonConflicting code is harmonized and can be moved to SqlPlatform. It opened such a large clean up opportunity that I stopped here to avoid making the patch explode. https://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning/ - 9.4 was released in 2014 and EOL since 2020 - 9.5 was released in 2016 and EOL since 2021 https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=postgresql&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all - Stretch is shipped with 9.6 - Buster is shipped with 11 - Bullseye is shipped with 13 Bug: T307616 Bug: T314163 Change-Id: I7296ea02d130bf2010cea3202ab2c2b87c626361
* installer: Require MySQL 5.7+ or MariaDB 10.3+, and distinguish in docsJames D. Forrester2022-05-151-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | For now, runtime detection remains limited to the pseudo-version of MySQL as reported by MariaDB. Logic for this exists in rdbms/DatabaseMysqlBase which we could use in a later change. Bug: T273375 Bug: T299447 Change-Id: I102371a05cae4a0299e517703f2d56bbd799be6f

* Follow-up f28578f9d: Update INSTALL and RELEASE-NOTES entriesJames D. Forrester2021-03-131-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | Also, let's keep the PHP version in the documentation correct for the branch release, not what the actual code says for master. This is much less confusing and needs fewer fixes when making back-port changes. Change-Id: I162f14ffaeeebab197a8fa48f6edde28df23eb9c
* PHPVersionCheck: Complain about known-bad versions above minimumJames D. Forrester2021-02-251-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | For now, this complains about 7.4.0 – 7.4.8, and 7.3.0 - 7.3.18. We will back-port this to the REL1_35 live release branch with modifications as that requires 7.3.19+ already. Bug: T246594 Bug: T270228 Change-Id: If5c7e3c1ba9dd9f6561c1de18130ded3aadc7149

| | | | | | | | 3.3.7 is 12 years old, no chance in hell you will find it somewhere that supports modern MediaWiki. Since Ubuntu 14.04 LTS has 3.8.2, this seems like a reasonable conservative version. Change-Id: I5fbb35bd2d4c0993889b79f463a3c35ce6765d3b

* INSTALL: Don't warn against using PHP "as a CGI plugin"Kevin Israel2018-07-261-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This note is very old; it was added in r2832 (635388356be70130) and r3285 (7ab7a50cf928861f). Modern versions of MediaWiki support CGI and FastCGI installations nearly as well as mod_php installations. In fact, Wikimedia currently uses HHVM's "fastcgi" server type, and intends to use php-fpm with PHP 7 (see migration plan in T176370). For a basic MediaWiki installation using the web installer, the only difference I know of is the default URLs: /w/index.php?title=$1 for CGI, as opposed to /w/index.php/$1 for mod_php. This issue is easy to fix by changing $wgArticlePath, if the web server sets REQUEST_URI. Admins who want to use short URLs (e.g. /wiki/$1) have to do this anyway. Also, in img_auth.php and the "img-auth-nopathinfo" message, don't imply that CGI and FastCGI server configurations generally can't provide path information or support MediaWiki features that need it.
