# GitWiki lost ability to parse macros 7 messages from 2006-09-06 to 2006-09-07. Participants: Jakub Narebski, Petr Baudis, Julian Phillips. Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/5496 ## Jakub Narebski, 2006-09-06 10:22 Subject: GitWiki lost ability to parse macros Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/edm7h3%24nij%241%40sea.gmane.org ``` Somehow, the GitWiki (which is MoinMoin wiki) lost the ability to parse macros. Macros are now output as is, instead of being substitutes with their expansion. It looks like MediaWiki-like syntax plugin got broken, because besides of {{macroname}} not being expanded, additionally pipe links [[target|label]] are not parsed. See for example http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/RecentChanges http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/FindPage http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/SystemInfo http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/InterfacesFrontendsAndTools (table of contents lost) So anyone has idea what has happened, and how to repair it? -- Jakub Narebski Warsaw, Poland ShadeHawk on #git ``` ## Petr Baudis, 2006-09-06 11:30 Subject: Re: GitWiki lost ability to parse macros Message-ID: <20060906113052.GC23891@pasky.or.cz> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20060906113052.GC23891%40pasky.or.cz In-Reply-To: ``` Hi, Dear diary, on Wed, Sep 06, 2006 at 12:22:47PM CEST, I got a letter where Jakub Narebski said that... > Somehow, the GitWiki (which is MoinMoin wiki) lost the ability to parse > macros.

Fixed. There are unfortunately some stability problems with the new server, we hope to get that sorted out; in case of downtime we'll be falling back to the original server which is still running, but I disabled the wiki there in order not to lose changes when flipping back and forth. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ Snow falling on Perl.

Fixed. Hmm... I still get for http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/RecentChanges {{RandomQuote()}} {{RecentChanges}} -- Jakub Narebski Warsaw, Poland ShadeHawk on #git ``` ## Julian Phillips, 2006-09-06 16:15 Subject: Re: GitWiki lost ability to parse macros Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/Pine.LNX.4.64.0609061712410.7168%40reaper.quantumfyre.co.uk In-Reply-To: ``` On Wed, 6 Sep 2006, Jakub Narebski wrote: > Hmm...

Since fixing the macros doesn't mean updating the page you have to manually delete the cache - this can be done from the "More Actions:" list. -- Julian --- If you are smart enough to know that you're not smart enough to be an Engineer, then you're in Business. ``` ## Jakub Narebski, 2006-09-06 17:18 Subject: Re: GitWiki lost ability to parse macros Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/edmvsn%24lt7%243%40sea.gmane.org In-Reply-To: ``` Julian Phillips wrote: > On Wed, 6 Sep 2006, Jakub Narebski wrote: > >> Hmm...

I did that originally, but it looks like I've missed some bit. Hopefully now all is in order. :-) -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ Snow falling on Perl.
