Echo Bug
Page: Echo and Arcane Echo

Problem: When I try to access either Echo page, I get this message:

Forbidden You don't have permission to access /wiki/Arcane_Echo on this server. Apache/2.0.55 (FreeBSD) PHP/5.0.5 Server at www.guildwiki.org Port 80

Hint: This may be an issue with the webserver configuration not with the wiki itself, as the error occurs with any URL that contains the word 'echo' like http://www.guildwiki.org/thisdoesnotexist/echo while any other URL (e.g. http://www.guildwiki.org/thisdoesnotexist/ocho) results in the usual 404 (not found) instead of the above mentioned 403 (forbidden) --Si Tacuisses 09:59, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

SQL error
Page: User:Skuld

Problem: Tried to preview my page, got this:

A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:

(SQL query hidden)

from within function "MediaWikiBagOStuff:_doquery". MySQL returned error "1062: Duplicate entry 'zeroliv_db5:messages:Bad_image_list' for key 1 (localhost)".

This shows up to me on occassion too. Though the edit always takes place. --Karlos 01:24, 26 October 2005 (EST)

Everytime I've gotten this, it's been on a page with a bad image. --Rezyk 04:51, 29 October 2005 (EST)


 * I've gotten this once or twice, and it always seems so random. It will happen on a page once, but not consistantly. Gravewit 14:01, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

Site support images
Page: Site support

Problem: The images that link to the paypal donation links are all missing.

Comments: Sounds like something trivial too. Something was not copied or a path needs to be corrected.

Upload Not Working
Page: Special:Upload

Problem: When you click on "Upload File" this is what you get: The upload directory (/home/guildwiki/public_html/images) is not writable by the webserver.

Coments: This makes it kind of hard to upload stuff. :( Should be an easy fix I would think though.  :)

Can't Delete This Image
Page: Image:EshnalHardwood.JPG

Problem: The wiki reports: Could not delete file "/usr/home/0chroot/zeroliv/home/zeroliv/public_html/guildwars/images/0/0c/EshnalHardwood.JPG".

Comments: Moo.

Where's Upload File?
Page: All pages

Problem: Upload File link is gone, it was very convenient to have it on any page. It's not just missing, I found the link and it says it's disabled!

Comments: Bring back the Upload File link.

Indentation of Stub templates
Page: Stance Beast Mastery and many others.

Problem: Ever since User:Skuld introduced the indentation at the beginning line of the templates (which is a good idea) this indentation is presently indenting the first line of most articles that have stub tages at the beginning. I have tried to remove it and failed.

Comments: This is not a technical isse with MediaWiki, and is probably something Fyren or someone more versed than I can look into.

Resolved: Fixed it, added    to the bottom of it, the hidden line blocks out the indentation for the next line, that needs to be added for the other stubs though Skuld &Dagger; 06:55, 19 October 2005 (EST)

I found that the hr tag added extra vertical padding. I submitted a fix that avoids this. --Rezyk 09:31, 30 October 2005 (EST)
