11:01 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM Hi folks.
11:02 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM We are a german humanitarian aid organization and are building a nursing school in burkina faso. For that reason โ€“ and the lack of internet access in this outskirts โ€“ we are trying to dump medical related wikis to use them from a stick with a portable wiki on it. A few are public, others belong to companies and/or are running on intranets we are allowed to use for that. Since we are of
11:02 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM course not allowed to have access to the servers itself, we have to use the dumpgenerator.py your wikiteam is offering on github. The problem we run into with this is, that we are running python (2.7.11) under Windows7Pro. Which should be fine, but it isnยดt. When we start the script with โ€ž/python/pythin.exe /wikiteam/dumpgenerator.py http://www.url.com โ€“xml โ€“images โ€“ path=/todump
11:02 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM we were receiving error messages regarding the kitchen and argparse module (which should be already in the py2.7.11 package). Iยดve manually installed them with pip (without errors) and run the script again. The same errors came up, saying no module for kitchen and argparse. So I installed them again with easy_install. Despite that the folders have been create and the files are nested within
11:02 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM I now get this: https://abload.de/img/console9nuia.jpg . So Iยดve installed html and entities via pip but this problem remains. The weird thing is: weยดve discussed that problem yesterday for hours with others in #python.de and in the end weยดve found out, that this is a repreducable bug on windows platforms โ€“ but in the opposite it works out of the box on linux machines. Thatยดs the point
11:02 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM where I would need some assistance, since we donยดt have linux, nor are we familiar with it. Iยดld really appreciate if you could show me a way to get beyond this โ€œno moduleโ€ error.
11:06 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM BTW: Thomas Waldmann, one of the co-authors of the argparse module told me to alter the dumpgenerator.py and to get rid of those "try" and exit rules. Now it looks like this: https://gist.github.com/Sperber03/a7487b0171f89d4fa10484d93e7a2c68 - and since that at least the no module errors regarding kitchen and argparse are gone.
11:07 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM Could anyone assist me with that html.entities error?
11:13 ๐Ÿ”— Nemo_bis I'm downloading the wiki
11:26 ๐Ÿ”— r3c0d3x has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
11:36 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM Thanks, nemo, but this only one part of the problems. We have 2 others which are in an intranet you donยดt have access to - and of course tha doesnยดt solve the problem with the script itself for use by individuals.
11:44 ๐Ÿ”— r3c0d3x has joined #wikiteam
11:55 ๐Ÿ”— Nemo_bis Who is "we", again? Perhaps it's easier if you ask whoever has access to the server in question to run https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:DumpBackup.php
12:11 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM We are the Surgical Mission Saarland. The DumpBackup doesnยดt fit the needs by itยดs restrictions (images), as we have to train domestic people where many of them are analphabets and visualization is key.
12:11 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM Wouldnยดt it be easier to hep us fix that particular problem with the script?
12:13 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM BTW. where can I download the dump youยดve created?

15:09 ๐Ÿ”— Nemo_bis Marv_FFM: images are saved by copying the directory they're in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Backing_up_a_wiki#File_system
15:13 ๐Ÿ”— Nemo_bis Marv_FFM: downloads are at https://archive.org/download/wiki-pflegewikide
15:28 ๐Ÿ”— Start has joined #wikiteam
15:46 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM Nemo_bis, we donยดt have access to the intranet servers - weยดve been just granted access to the frontend, not the backend, and we are allowed to use their wiki for our purpose. But at the same time we have to do this on our own as they canยดt (or wonยดt) assist us, as they state.
15:49 ๐Ÿ”— Start has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
15:50 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM Regarding the dump. Thanks, but the dump is only a minor part of the wiki. All images from F-Z are missing and the dump from the year 2014 is already over 300M while the new one from today is 91M big.
15:52 ๐Ÿ”— Nemo_bis Stuff may have been deleted, or it may be a bug
15:53 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM ?
15:53 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM Images F-Z of course are available on the wiki.
16:00 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM What I am wondering about - is this now a backup tool, that shall be available and used by the public or is it targeted only for a specific in-group? Or is this some kind of secret how to solve the error from the dumpgenerator.py-script to prevent others from using it? If thats the case, may be someone should note that somewhere since I feel more likely unwelcomed as anything else.

16:36 ๐Ÿ”— Nemo_bis It's for people who know how to run python scripts
16:38 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM And you guess i donยดt or what? Pretty arrogant..
16:39 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM The proble is the script, not my python skills. So youยดld better fix this script before accusing anyone to be unable to use them.
16:39 ๐Ÿ”— Nemo_bis I'm not accusing, just stating the intended audience.

17:16 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM So, youยดre saying this backup-tool is for linux/unix OS only, since this seems the only OS where the script runs without errors - or vice versa: itยดs not intended for a windows OS, even when py is running? Wow, thatยดs a nice way to say "fuck off". Kudos, Nemo_bis, chapeau.
17:16 ๐Ÿ”— Marv_FFM has left
17:17 ๐Ÿ”— xmc nice and hostile
17:17 ๐Ÿ”— Nemo_bis AFAIK, Mac users don't have problems either
