Has anyone got ArticleComments.php extension working with MW 1.20? - mediawiki

I downloaded the ArticleComments.php from the homepage, and have copied it to my extensions directory.
I add this line to the end of my LocalSettings.php :
require_once( "extensions/ArticleComments.php" );
But when I do, it knocks my wiki over until I disable it!
The PHP error log says:
Fatal error: Call to a member function addMessage() on a non-object in /opt/bitnami/apps/mediawiki/htdocs/extensions/ArticleComments.php on line 277
where line 277 reads:
$wgMessageCache->addMessage('article-comments-name-string', 'Name');
Any ideas? This is a common extension, and I just don't know why I can't get it to work? Can anyone link me to the correct file / download in case my PHP file is corrupt in some way? Any info would be useful, I'm tearing my hair out!

Apparently, the version of the ArticleComments extension available from the "official homepage" (0.4.3) is pretty badly outdated, and doesn't work with MediaWiki 1.16 or later. There's a more up-to-date version (0.6) available in the Wikimedia SVN repository which fixes a number of incompatibilities and, according to the change log, a few security issues as well.
(The specific reason for the crash you got is that the global $wgMessageCache object, which the old version uses to define its interface message, was removed in MW 1.18. However, looking at the change log, there seem to be several other incompatibilities as well.)
The mediawiki.org page for the ArticleComments extension is currently really confusing: it contains links to the up-to-date version in the infobox, but everything else on the page links to the old version. I really should contact the maintainers of the extension and try to get it straightened out.

Mobius Form 3 Errors on 2sxc 10.25?

I have a DNN 9.04.04 site with Porto 5.x (latest). Otherwise no other modules installed much installed (except Live Slider which came w Porto). So I installed 2sxc 10.25. Then added Content App... errors, but I fixed both; a) had to add koi.json and b) web.config was missing the System.Web.Helpers binding redirect for v3.0.x. Those seem common to me now. Mentioning because maybe they are related to where I got stuck?
I installed Mobius 3.0 and after Googling for the error and finding anything, decided to ask here before maybe reporting it as a bug? If it matters, I let 2sxc install Mobius for me. I think I chose just the FAQ and Mobius. After install, choosing apps, both show the newer icons and Mobius clearly has the v3 in the upper right corner. The app installed ok, but then adding it to the page in the usual way results in this View/template error:
Error: System.InvalidOperationException: The webpage at '/Portals/0/2sxc/Mobius
Forms/_Contact Form.cshtml' must derive from SexyContentWebPage. at

Additional info added 2/2/2020:
There is no coding or modifications here. I just installed DNN latest, 2sxc latest, and then used 2sxc UI to add Mobius 3. Errors (above) appear immediately once Mobius is on the page.
For reasons I can't be sure about, you seem to be missing the web.config in the 2sxc folder. Best compare it with a working solution.

SignTool error while packaging Windows Store app

During packaging the Windows Store application, I get an unspecified error [APPX1204]:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\AppxPackage\Microsoft.AppXPackage.Targets(1139,9): error APPX1204: Failed to sign 'D:\Projects\VS2012\Stroik\Stroik\AppPackages\Stroik_1.0.0.11_AnyCPU_Test\Stroik_1.0.0.11_AnyCPU.appx'. SignTool Error: An unexpected internal error has occurred.
Build output refers to the part of a file generated by VS2012:
<SignAppxPackage AppxPackageToSign="#(FinalAppxPackageItem)"
CertificateThumbprint="$(PackageCertificateThumbprint)"
CertificateFile="$(PackageCertificateKeyFile)"
HashUri="$(_HashUri)"
EnableSigningChecks="$(EnableSigningChecks)"
>
<Output TaskParameter="ResolvedThumbprint" PropertyName="ResolvedThumbPrint"/>
<Output TaskParameter="AppxPackagePublicKeyFile" PropertyName="AppxPackagePublicKeyFile" />
</SignAppxPackage>
Yesterday packaging proceeded successfully. Today I added aditional logic to my app and changed some data in manifest. Since then I'm reciving presented error. I tried to regenerate Certificate in Packaging menu, delete Store/Temporary Keys (then regenerate), ... much more but nothing helps.
Now I have no idea how to handle it. Furthermore packaging a new project (as it is provided by vs2012) results in the same error.
Have you got any suggestions how to solve it.
If it helps anyone else, I was trying to make the build on a network share (virtualizing windows). Creating it on the Windows partition solved the issue.
I was developing on a Virtual Machine in VirtualBox and tryed to publish to the shared folder.
Change the output folder to a local folder on the virtual maschine solved it.
Granted this is older - see if you can try it with a different live id
You could also try to generate a new app, and diff the manifests between the apps.
Now according to:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/toolsforwinapps/thread/f25939fb-c48c-4bd0-938e-6a0afbd2dca0/
you may want to sign out, use IE 'in safe private browsing' and create a new one.
Also ensure that IE is set in "Browsing History->Settings" to get a new version of the page every time.
Login with the new one and give it a try.
I'm not sure if this error is related here or not, but it's a starting point based on the prior feedback on the above post.
This japanese site lists the same error code and seems to have the same resolution as well
http://coelacanth.heteml.jp/blog/windows-8signtool-error-an-unexpected-internal-error-has-occurred/
Its worth a shot, but I'll admit on this one not being 100% sure, just trying to help out : )

Problems including comdef.h

I'm trying to port some existing code to WP8 and have come across a problem.
The code i am porting uses a smart pointer thats is defined in comdef.h but for some reason when I try and include comdef.h I get the following error.
comdef.h(25): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'olectl.h'
I understand what the error means and it seems there is no trace of "olectl.h" in the WP8 SDK include paths on my machine. Is anyone else having this problem, I've tried "repairing" my installation of "Visual studio 2012 Express for Windows Phone"
I have found some code that appears to include comdef.h and has gotten around the missing macro problem the link at the end of this post is talking about by not using the macro at all and explicitly using the code that the macro would expand to.
(Here is the code that does what I want to: https://devel.nuclex.org/framework/browser/graphics/Nuclex.Graphics.Native/trunk/Source/Rasterization/Direct3D11/Direct3D11Api.h?rev=1782)
Has anyone else experienced this, or could someone with the SDK installed try including comdef.h somewhere to see if it works for them.
The missing macro link:

Thanks.
Yes, I see this too, so it appears this is "by-design".
Basically if the API isn't listed on MSDN in the list of supported COM/Win32 APIs, then it isn't a supported API on Windows Phone 8. It looks like only the combaseapi.h header is supported.
_com_ptr_t<T> and it's friends aren't on the list...

Configuring xUnit for CUnit in Hudson CI

I want to use Hudson CI for my c-project, which also uses CUnit. However I've also come to understand that there is currently no plugin that supports CUnit. So I read on the internets that this might be possible using the xUnit plugin by translating between CUnit and JUnit, but using the supplied file yields an error.
[xUnit] [ERROR] - The plugin hasn't been performed correctly: Conversion error Error to convert the input XML document
So my question is; has anyone successfully run CUnit tests in hudson. And, in that case, how?
#Nubsis: Did you by any chance copy & paste from the listing? The downloadable file seems to work just fine.
If you found errors in it let me know so I can fix them and put an updated version on my blog so others don't run into the same problems you had.
As it turns out, there were some syntax errors in the xslt-file provided in the link. After correcting this and some identifiers it worked out well.

Infragistics license exceptions when MSBuild-ing

When running the MSBuild scripts for a project, I'm getting the following errors:
Properties\licenses.licx(1): error LC0004: Exception occurred creating type 'Infragistics.Win.UltraWinEditors.UltraNumericEditor, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinEditors.v5.2, Version=5.2.20052.1028, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7dd5c3163f2cd0cb' System.ComponentModel.LicenseException: Unable to locate license assembly.
Properties\licenses.licx(2): error LC0004: Exception occurred creating type 'Infragistics.Win.Misc.UltraGridBagLayoutManager, Infragistics.Win.Misc.v5.2, Version=5.2.20052.1028, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7dd5c3163f2cd0cb' System.ComponentModel.LicenseException: Unable to locate license assembly.
Properties\licenses.licx(3): error LC0004: Exception occurred creating type 'Infragistics.Win.UltraWinEditors.UltraCheckEditor, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinEditors.v5.2, Version=5.2.20052.1028, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7dd5c3163f2cd0cb' System.ComponentModel.LicenseException: Unable to locate license assembly.
It appears that there's a problem with my machine's Infragistics license.
I have valid license files in my solution, so what's causing this issue?
There is a much easier solution: Set the build action on your license.licx to None.
From a user comment in Infragistics forum archive
install as the Sysadmin for "All Users" and then the
user will develop and compile their app.
Here is a workaround but unfortunately, this does not explain the root cause.
Here is a blog post from Infragistics to deal with automated builds but I don't think it is your case. And a further reference to that same post adding more info here.
I guess you had already looked at those links but they might be helpful to somebody else with a similar problem.
it's much easier just to only change the build compilation to any CPU and you're done!
it will run with no problem.
Make sure the license compiler (lc.exe) can find the location of your Infragistics assemblies. Also, if you've updated your components anytime recently make sure there aren't multiple copies with different version numbers lying around. Finally make sure that the version your are trying to use is the same version in the licenses.licx file.
An easy way to refresh the licenses.licx is it open the form designer, add an Infragistics component and remove it.
If for some reason the licenses.licx file doesn't refresh you can try removing the offending entries first then refresh it.
