The bug occurred after 30 hours of continuous run, and was accompanied by out-of-memory complains. There was not enough memory to run pull-down menus, there were a lot if red X in the AWB window and I got an error about "Screen-compatible bitmap cannot be created. The screen bitmap format can not be determined" when trying to exit. --Jarekt (talk) 10:34, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Mag, that is interesting. That fix and bug report seem to be based solely on Special: pages, and I recreated it here as a result of an endless loop of redirects.

Reguyla military.wikia.com uses "MediaWiki 1.19.9" can you please ask devs to update it to 1.22? -- Magioladitis (talk) 17:32, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I posted a notice here and I submitted a request to the devs. I'll let you know what they say. I suspect its probably either on a schedule already and just hasn't been done yet or they could be potentially waiting on some of the bugs to be fixed in 1.22.1. Since Wikia uses some other extenstions and features (like blogs) they might be doing some additional testing before implementing the patch. Just guessing though. Reguyla (talk) 17:45, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Reguyla thanks for the response! Let's see if this fixes the problem. I asked Reedy for further feedback. -- Magioladitis (talk) 18:02, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Awesome, I much appreciate the speedy assistance. Reguyla (talk) 18:05, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Crossposted from Wikia. A user submitted the following comment regarding the problem.
"For any developers reading this, the error seems to occur on line 753 of WikiFunctions/API/ApiEdit.cs, when Action!="edit", which would seem to suggest that the page is not in edit mode when it's being saved. If I knew how to build from source, I could suggest some debug code (I've never used C# before, so it could be a trial-and-error)." Reguyla (talk) 18:16, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You're presumably hitting some weird condition. If it was exceptioning, you'd get a pop up, and it would be cancelled; error handler and start processing that page again. But then you'd know it was erroring (and you'd presumably have said that). So there is some case where it apparently returns out fine, but not set.
It's a hard thing to debug when it's not replicable on demand. Reedy (talk) 19:15, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Reedy, I totally understand. I'll try and watch for it again and see if I can narrow in on the particulars of the problem. If it helps any I usually get it in bot mode. Only once have I gotten this with my regular account. I got it a couple times in template space and 5 or 6 times in article space. I am also an admin on the site so it shouldn't be an issue with accessing the article. I also verified the articles in question weren't being blocked by a blacklist or global block. If I can get it to come up again I'll take some notes on the instance and post it here. Reguyla (talk) 19:22, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A bit jumping the gun I was with my last comment. It appears all the accounts there are wanting me to sign in twice on AWB before edits go through (something that did not occur before), which is... strange. Is that a bug? All three seem to actually work fine afterward, but... weird, I guess.- Purplewowies (talk) 16:31, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

At startup. Still on Wine 1.2 on Mandriva 2010.2, after having installed .NET 2.0 and 3.0, and IE 8 using winetricks, as the guide recommands to "install some libraries from Microsoft". At that point the splash screen says "Plugin::LoadPluginsStartup()". AWB seems to correctly finish starting up if I choose "Continue working". Rinaku (t · c) 14:04, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actually AWB doesn't correctly start up (I said so because I didn't know what AWB is supposed to look like normally): the menu bar is replaced by some sort of error widget (white rectangle with red border and diagonals), as is some widget in the "Regexp typo fixing" block. --Rinaku (t · c) 14:13, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
But if I blindly click on the error-menubar, the menus appear below. --Rinaku (t · c) 14:25, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, know about that.... I've tried to fix it, but with no luck so far. Reedy 08:58, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Rather than maximise the app, what happens if you try to manually resize it down to fit your screen? I've just tried resizing AWB here and it would certainly get down to be small enough, but then again I'm starting off with a 1600×1200 screen. ClickRick (talk) 23:56, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I would do that if I could reach the bottom handles of the screen, which I cannot because AWB is too large to fit on my screen. —harej (talk) (cool!) 17:11, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Can you resize from the top left, then move the window up and left? --NE2 23:29, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Or Alt+Space to bring down the system menu, then S to select Size, then use the arrow keys. ClickRick (talk) 20:09, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Make list display becomes somewhat garbled when scrolling fast

Status New
Description When quickly scrolling up and down through a large list in the make list window (by clicking and dragging the slider in the scroll bar), some of the entries overwrite each other in terms of how they are displayed. The entries themselves are fine; however, some of the article titles have the names of the articles that were above them listed on top of them. For example, one of the entries of the list I have open right now is for New York State Route 470. It should read just "New York State Route 470"; however, the displayed text is "New York State Route 470" with the words "New York State Route 446" (the article above it in the list) overlaid on top. – TMF 19:22, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AWB cannot save letter + combining diacritic when a precomposed Unicode glyph is available

Status Need more information
Description I'm making corrections to 800 IPA transcriptions of Burmese. Some of these involve changing a diacritic. Many of the vowel+diacritic have no combined Unicode value, and so I made the rules a generic combining-diacritic → combining-diacritic swap. However, some of the combos do have preexisting glyphs, and when saved, WP converts the combos into those glyphs. AWB cannot save a combo that this happens to. Although it displays the proper corrections in the edit box, when I hit 'save', it just restarts (in X seconds).

I can copy the edit box and paste it into any of the articles manually (I've done about 70), and that works fine. That gets to be quite tedious, however.

I reported a similar problem some time ago, here, and that was chalked up to a server problem. However, it's been two days now w the Burmese stuff, and it's still happening. It's also always the same subset of articles.—kwami (talk) 08:24, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

To duplicate: One example replaces a combining under-breve ( ̯ ) with a combining under-tilde ( ̰ ). I made the manual change, cut & pasted from the AWB edit window, here. Note that although I copied and pasted from the edit window in AWB, where the diacritics were separate combining glyphs, and that's still the case in the saved version in the page history with a̰, the page history has a precomposed ṵ, which was not produced by AWB. I reverted that change, ran it again, and deleted the under-tildas, and it saved fine here. It also saves fine if I delete only the tilde under the u,[8] but not if I delete only the tilde under the a.

That particular rule is regex under advanced rules, \{\{IPA-my\|([^|}]*)̯ to {{IPA-my|$1̰ (regex, case sensitive, apply 3 times, inside templates, no 'if' conditions). However, the same thing happens with the same diacritic in a 'regular settings' rule that changes ṵ (precomposed u-under.tilde) to ṵ (u + combining diacritic--I'm telling you in case the latter gets saved as the precomposed character when I hit 'save page' on this post, which I believe it will) under the 'normal settings' rules, and also the same thing with i instead of u. No boxes in the regular rules window are checked apart from 'enabled', but same problem as the regex rule.

A different diacritic I manually overrode was here. The problematic part was correcting taʊ̀ɴ to tàuɴ. (That accent probably will be fused to the a when I save this posting, but in the edit window it is a separate combining glyph which I can delete by hitting the backspace key.) It only saves if I delete the grave accent over the a (that is, save to tauɴ [9]). That's a 'normal settings' rule that finds aʊ̀ and replaces with àu. There is another rule than replaces unaccented ʊ with u in certain environments, and that doesn't cause problems, so it's not the ʊ → u part. Also, when I replaced the combining accent à (which is easier for me to type inside AWB) with precomposed à inside the replace rule, then the problem disappears, as here.

So I figure it's the combining diacritic. I replaced the problematic ṵ in first problem listed above with ʊ̰ (same diacritic on a letter which has no precombined Unicode character for it) and it saved just fine,here just as it did when I cut & pasted in the precomposed letter into the AWB edit box.[10]

So it would seem to be specifically (1) trying to save a page with a letter plus combining diacritic sequence, when that combination would normally be converted into a precomposed character when saved in WP, but not (2) when saving the precomposed character itself, or (3) when saving the same diacritic on a letter for which Unicode (or at least WP) does not have a precomposed version.

Does this sandbox diff correctly represent the type of edit you want to be making with AWB (text from Thukha article)? Rjwilmsi 12:58, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that's exactly right. I can get it to work if AWB converts u̯ directly into ṵ, but not if it converts into u+ ̰—kwami (talk) 19:15, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I was able to reproduce this once, but now can't get it to happen again. If I have understood your conclusion it's that the diacritic needs to be combined with the letter to the Unicode character for AWB to save. Therefore I suggest you try selecting the text and right-clicking to choose the 'Unicodify selected' option. Does it then allow you to save? Rjwilmsi 21:52, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It was already selected, but it made no difference: I can't save either way. (I assume that unicodifies input from existing sequences on the page, not output from AWB.)
Yes, that was my conclusion. I think it might only be sequences that WP unicodifies upon saving, that there's a conflict between what AWB and WP are trying to do.

kwami We resolved this by skipping pages with characters in PUA. Am I right or wrong? -- Magioladitis (talk) 16:41, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Magioladitis: No, this has nothing to do with PUA. It's a matter of replacing combining diacritics with precomposed glyphs within the defined Unicode range. — kwami (talk) 19:20, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Just ran a test, and it's still a problem. I simplified it to replacing "u" with "$1̰" in my sandbox. If I run it on "a" instead of "u", it saves properly. (There is no precomposed glyph with "a".) If I replace "u" but copy the result from the AWB edit window and paste it in manually, that also saves. But otherwise AWB skips the article with the log error (Filter by skip reason & Filter exclude skip reason) "MD5 hash error: The page you are editing may contain an unsupported or invalid Unicode character". That's clearly not true: The only thing in my sandbox was "a u a u", and AWB will save normally when the diacritic is on "a". (Here's where it saved when I manually deleted the diacritics from "u" but left them on "a".) So all three characters are valid unicode. What appears to be happening is that there's confusion with the precomposed Unicode glyph U+1E75 "". (Here's where I manually pasted the AWB edit-window result into the article, and that character is what the u+tilde saved as.)
So this is what I conclude the problem is: If there is a precomposed unicode glyph C that is equivalent to letter A plus combining diacritic B, then AWB will skip an article rather than saving the sequence AB. WP has no problem saving an article with AB in it, but in so doing it replaces it with C. I suspect that there is a conflict between AWB and that feature in WP. — kwami (talk) 19:48, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I did see the scrollbar disappear during a session once. I finished one setting file with no scrollbar problems, then I started another setting file and the scrollbar was gone.

Problems get left if there's no suitable solution. So on this one the problem as follows: we used to run typo fixing after genfixes: this would incorrectly add diacritics to sortkeys on en-wiki, where sortkeys should not have diacritics. Now we run typo fixing before genfixes, this means that if typo fixing adds the diacritics, genfixes removes them again, so better. However the edit summary can then be incorrect. We cannot simply stop typo fixing running on sortkeys, there may be genuine typos in sortkeys that we want to fix. The edit summary may contain genuine typos that were fixed plus sortkey changes that had no net result, so we can't simply blank the edit summary.
We would have to look at a specific piece of logic that each time a typo fix was applied we check if it will just change diacritics in a sortkey, and don't do the change if that's true. But in programming terms this derivation isn't so easy: first have to determine if typo has matched in a sortkey by taking index of match, getting all category links and comparing whether match index within category links range. Then have to check if "fixed" word is only different by diacritics to original word. We could do this but I fear it's going to make typo fixing slower (every typo fix checked against every category), and add a very specific check that only affects a fraction of pages. I doubt it's really worth doing this. Perhaps if you think problems left for 6 months isn't acceptable you have a better solution that we've not come up with? Rjwilmsi 17:16, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Magioladitis, Rjwilmsi for me it is not a matter if the summary gets gchanged or not. It is the fact that AWB wants to change Sao Paulo to São Paulo in e.g. 2014 Aberto de São Paulo – Singles, wich is making the keysort wrong. I did not make my self clear above. -(tJosve05a (c) 21:07, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If the full solution is too complex, then I'd !vote for turning off typo fixing of category sort keys. I think it's better to miss a few corrections than to introduce new errors. The typo-fixer should not assume that general fixes are turned on. -- John of Reading (talk) 21:15, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
A way to partially avoid this, in the case where only sortkey diacritics are being changed and changed back, is to check 'skip if no changes are automatically made'.

I guess we can fix this without rearranging typo fixing. -- Magioladitis (talk) 18:13, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looked at this. Cannot make date fixes case insensitive due to "the 2th march down the street" false positives. Need to consider having typos run after syntax fixing from genfixes but before these kind of fixes. I would be concerned about the overhead of additional Hidetext calls. Rjwilmsi 20:17, 6 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, there could be false positives with some monts (e.g. "march" and "may"), but not others (e.g. months ending in "ary" or "ber"), right? GoingBatty (talk) 04:16, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Editing change keyboard layout

Status New
Description When editing text in the Edit box, I can change the keyboard language to alternative language (RO in my case) using default Windows shortcut (Ctrl-shift), but clicking anywhere in the edit box change the language back to the default EN keyboard language. This also happens when I change the language while editing and move with the arrow keys. Phaneb (talk) 08:20, 22 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
To duplicate: 1. Login and input a list of pages to change. Click start. 2. Change keyboard language to an alternative language (by shortcut or using the language bar) 4. Cicking anywhere in the Edit box switch back the language to default.

Josve05a I am aware of the problem. I already sent an email to wmflabs. They should do something on their side to fix this. I do not want us to roll back to http since https was enabled till last week. -- Magioladitis (talk) 19:00, 26 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Reedy, Rjwilmsi I contacted WMFLabs since obtaining the list via https was possible till last week. In my email I wrote that "AWB fails, after recent changes in Labs server, to obtain text from html's body from https://tools.wmflabs.org/checkwiki/cgi-bin/checkwiki.cgi?project". And that "Obtaining text via http works fine.". This bevahiour has been confirmed by Bgwhite too.

The answer was that "That URL is working fine for me, and gives me a pretty table in http and https (and so is the one at the on-wiki bug report)".

More, interesting is that, according to NicoV, WPCleaner obtain results from both http and https. -- Magioladitis (talk) 17:24, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • From Fluff Wikipedia (same person as Fluffernutter?): "Did a compare from awb and firefox. AWB uses TLS 1.0 and firefox 1.2 and in both cases the certificate is sent. But no key exchange is initiated from the server when awb tries to connect, thus the "network timeout" error." They attached two tcpdumps and can be here.

I'm no dot net expert but it would be interesting to see how the HttpWebRequest object looks before the request is initiated. From what I can see on google it's possible to use SSL3 which may be a good idea anyway: [11] but that's about the clues I've found so far. /Fluff (talk) 13:58, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Is there any reason to switch to https for Check Wiki on Labs, since there's no authentication? Should I go to https also for WPCleaner? An other thing different for WPCleaner is that I use the other cgi file (https://tools.wmflabs.org/checkwiki/cgi-bin/checkwiki_bots.cgi?limit=100&id=072&project=frwiki&action=list&offset=0). --NicoV (Talk on frwiki) 16:45, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

When the bot stops when saving a page and then restarts, a saved page is considered skipped in the "Logs" tab

Status New
Description
Bug with the "Logs" tab

Hi. I just noticed that, in bot mode, with a delay of 0 seconds, if I click on the "Stop" button whereas the bot is about to save a page, it actually stops the activity of bot, but when I click on "Start" again, I see the page that is actually saved in the "Skipped" pages, in the logs, instead of in the "Succesfully saved" pages. See a screenshot on the right, and the page actually saved here, or this other example (the log shows this page too). Automatik (talk) 20:33, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Workaround As you can see for the second example (the page acipar), the time shown in the history for the registration of the page is earlier than the time reported in the log of skipped pages. It is possible that, whereas the registration takes place, adding the page in the log of successfully saved pages doesn't occur, then, once restarted, the program does not know we saved the page and so on puts the page in the log of skipped pages.

AWB sorts "Șt" after "T"

Status New
Description When trying to sort a list, AWB arranges the pages as follows:
  1. Talk:Syed Wasi Shah
  2. Talk:Sylvain Estibal
  3. Talk:T. J. Connolly
  4. Talk:Tagore Trajano
  5. Talk:Tarun Cherian
  6. Talk:Tatá Werneck
  7. Talk:Tatjana Gürbaca
  8. Talk:Tatsuya Ozeki
  9. Talk:Ștefan Burghiu
  10. Talk:TEGI
  11. Talk:Terence Clark

So, "Șt" is sorted after "T". I believe it is better to sort it after "S" and before "T". (Correct me if I am wrong.) Also, the capital "TE" should come before "Ta". Meno25 (talk) 23:20, 10 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Meno25. Not sure why it is sorting Ștefan Burghiu in the Ts. Something is wrong there. AWB follows the same sorting rules as Wikimedia follows. Ș would be sorted after Z. This is the reason for DEFAULTSORT and the sorting rule, "non-English accented characters, such as 'ź' with English counterparts, e.g. 'z'." Bgwhite (talk) 04:24, 11 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
