Subject: [Moin-user] LDAP on Windows?
Message-ID: <5c39e1ca0909021431m2664e6advf06c459a36984f8c@mail.gmail.com>

This is what I hope is a silly one.

I'm trying to change authentication on my wiki to be based on LDAP.
I've configured and pasted in the snippet into my farmconfig.py file.
When I try to go to the site, it immediately displays "No module named
ldap".  Am I missing something fundamental here?

Here's the trace:

Please ignore.  It turns out I am indeed missing something fundamental here.

Somehow I missed the line on HelpOnAuthentication that I need
python-ldap installed.  Huh.

Apologies for the interruption.

Do you have python-ldap module (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-ldap/) ?

Hi Steven,

The update check happens if someone does a page save. It just wants to
make sure that it has the latest antispam patterns before it checks the
new content against them.

Your BadContent seems to be fresh enough, though, see there:

http://master18.moinmo.in/4ct10n/info/BadContent?action=info

There was no update since July. But your wiki can't know that without
checking periodically.

BTW, the log level is INFO, this is just informative, it is not an
error. The "[error]" likely comes from apache who received this output
on stderr, which is the default logging output of moin.

> Can someone please tell me what to do?

Just ignore those messages. If you can't live with them, raise your
logging level to WARNING.

BTW, you only need antispam for wiki reachable from the internet.
If your wiki is intranet only or heavily protected by login / ACLs, you
rather don't need it.

For spam protection please also consider using TextChas, see
HelpOnTextChas. If you configure some site-specific and not too easy
questions, they are a better protection than antispam secpol.
 
Cheers,

Thomas

Subject: [Moin-user] authenticating from multiple sources
Message-ID: <5c39e1ca0909041543m2246f2achbb60386e45978497@mail.gmail.com>

I'm trying to get a wiki configured that will allow multiple
authentication methods. ?According to HelpOnAuthentication, this
should be possible by combining multiple auths.


background:
I want a wiki that is shared between internal users (authenticating
off of LDAP), and clients (which I would hand-create an account for),
and then using acl_rights_before and acl_rights_default to control
access.

I've tested both authentication methods separately, and they work fine
(i.e. in default auth, I'm able to create new accounts. ?In LDAP, I'm
able to login).



The problem:
When I merge the two, the standard auth users are no longer able to
log in. The LDAP users get an "Invalid username or password" error,
BUT does successfully log in (they're able to click the "clear
message" link and continue just fine).

Any thoughts?


Here's the relevent snippet from my farmconfig.py:

? ?from MoinMoin.auth import MoinAuth
? ?from MoinMoin.auth.ldap_login import LDAPAuth
? ?ldap_authenticator1 = LDAPAuth(
? ? ? ?server_uri='ldap://172.25.60.8', ?# ldap / active directory server URI
? ? ? ?bind_dn='%(username)s at cogarts.us.niit.com', ?# We can either

Thank you Thomas. I wanted to close the loop for future people who have the
same question. One concern I had was that the fetch might be happening from
another port besides 80. I saw some funny port numbers that were being dropped
by my firewall. Closer inspection showed it was the script kiddies usual games.

Also, thanks for the TextChas. I initially got drowned in Asian ads for ground
up endangered animal parts. Most of that stuff was halted by the TextChas.

Hi Rick,

It should be, but especially ldap auth is maybe not flexible enough and
defaults to a rather "authoritative" behaviour: if it tells "no", it is
"no".

Changing this needs thinking through different scenarios, like:
 * mixing ldap and other authenticators
 * mixing different ldap authenticators
 * having multiple ldap authenticators with same content (like pdc, bdc)

The problem is that I personally don't use ldap auth and have no test
environment, thus well-tested improvements are very welcome.

That is because you use it as last authenticator, the authenticator that
ran before it already created a user object.

You maybe want to use some of these, so it creates/updates user profile
with the data from ldap.

Message-ID: <DB48D96BF904AD469CC90C66DB97530A017F63AF@GSX201B.mxchg.m.corp>

Hi,

I'm trying to use the space and extend the actions toolbar to the right
of the "More actions" combo box with something like a link (or button,
etc) to a certain target page. The linked page should differ, depending
on the page on which the user currently is. E.g. if the user is on the
"McDonalds" wiki page, the link will target the "FastFoodRestaurants"
wiki page.

There are two catches:
- the linked page is not necessarily the "parent" page, it should be
parameterizable e.g. through a variable defined by the editor on each
page.
- the link should be on the actions toolbar or somwehere in the upper
part of each page, in order to optimize space usage.

Do you have any ideas about how to accomplish this?

Thanks!
George

Message-ID: <BAY111-W10F6A89C7D35F9105A284B87EB0@phx.gbl>


Hi, 
 
I am using moinmoin with:
Apache/2.2.13 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.2.13 OpenSSL/0.9.8k mod_wsgi/2.3 Python/2.5.2 mod_auth_sspi/1.0.4

I have read this page http://moinmo.in/HelpOnMoinCommand/ExportDump. I need this functionality really.

 

I tried to export pages into html but not succeeded. I have followed all steps which were mentioned in the above document.
1. Created one output dir= C:/temp/moinexport
2. Created attachments folder under moinexport = C:/temp/moinexport/attachments
3. Paste the default theme folder under moinexport with its subfolder ?css? and ?img? = C:/TEMP/moinexport/modern
4. Now I run the following command 
C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\MoinMoin\script>moin.py --config-dir=C:/Moin/supwiki --wiki-url=https://localhost/supwiki export dump --page=CatAuthors --target=C:/temp/moinexport
5. Now I got following message
2009-09-07 17:07:49,318 WARNING MoinMoin.log:139 using logging configuration rea
d from built-in fallback in MoinMoin.log module!
2009-09-07 17:07:49,631 INFO MoinMoin.config.multiconfig:125 using wiki config:
C:\Moin\supwiki\wikiconfig.pyc
Writing "CatAuthors.html"...
 
All are working very fine till here. Now I go to the target folder and open the index.html. It is showing me the name of my front page of wiki as a link with other two links: TitelIndex and WordIndex. And top of this html page CatAuthors (simple text) is mentioned and footer of the page has Timestamp. nothing more. 
Now I open the CatAuthors.html page and it is also the same page like index.html. Now I check the attachments folder and it is also empty. Actually this CatAuthors page has also attachments in my wiki.
Here is also one file error.log. it is also empty.
 
The exported html pages don?t have the contents and attachments of the pages. Can you please guide me, where I am missing the important steps? I shall be thankful to you.
 
Best Regards, 
Waqas Ahmad

Subject: [Moin-user] Question about how to add an RSS feed.
Message-ID: <4AA569CE.8020607@syslang.net>

I looked on google but I didn't understand what I was reading.

People already have the ability to subscribe to pages. I'd like to offer to
them the ability to subscribe via an rss feed. I saw this

http://wiki.python.org/moin/RssLibraries

but I think this is a way of turning moin into a wiki reader. What I want is
to allow people to use their own rss readers, (e.g., firefox, thunderbird) to
sub to a particular moin page so that the page would go to them. The existing
functionality seems to only give you all pages via the "Recent Changes" button.

Is this doable? And does it make sense to pursue this? Or should I just tell
people to stay with the subscribe idea?

TIA

Thanks for the reply, Thomas.  As my grandfather would say; "well, crap."  :-)

That forces me to re-think how clients and internal users login.   As
a stop-gap, I've set it to the default authenticator (from
MoinMoin.auth import MoinAuth).  Which brings me to my next question:

Is there an easy way so that only I (or some other trusted admins) can
create user accounts?  I don't want any account self-created, I want
the handful to be created only by those with admin rights.  I
understand how to set and configure the acl_rights_default so that
non-trusted users cannot view pages, but also don't want people even
trying to create accounts.  Many versions ago, this was easily done by
setting the ACL on the UserPreferences page.  But that's not used
anymore, obviously.  Maybe restrict access to the newaccount action?
Or similar technique?  (sorry, it's been a while since I've configured
a wiki in this way).

-Rick

you could disable the newaccount action and create users by the moin
command on the server.

If you need it web based you can hack the action macro and add a
condition that a superuser account is required to call it.

Also you can use a TextCha questions which only the community involved
in the wiki content can answer.

I do prefer the last solution.

can be done by a pragma defintition on the page

#pragma restaurant "McDonalds"

wikiutil.escape(self.request.getPragma('restaurant', defval=''))

look at theme.__init__.editbarItems search for Discussion for an example.

What I did was to put the pragma on the page, extend the 
editbar with a new item "ParentPage" which is connected to a 
new action called Parent, defined in Parent.py. It does get called.

The problem is that the "restaurant" parameter defined with 
the pragma seems wo be empty within the execute function in Parent.py.

How do I properly access the "restaurant" parameter in the 
Parent.py action?
 
Thanks!

If you paste your current code it is easier to talk about it.

Hi,
Looking for a similar setup I have looked at the TextCha documentation.
I have not found if I can use the TextCha only for the new account
creation operation. Have I missed something?

{{{#!wiki yellow/dotted/center
||<tablestyle="text-align: center"#0099ff>'''Know-How''' ||<#0099ff>'''General''' ||

That sounds like your default ACL is wrong.

In recent moin versions you should activate the TextCha feature (like
captcha, but only text, read HelpOnTextChas).

I have installed moin-1.8.5 according to the instructions.
My operating system is  Ubuntu 7.10
My web server is Apache 2.
Last lines of my /etc/apache2/sites-available/default:


   Alias       /wiki "/usr/share/moin/htdocs/"
   ScriptAlias /mywiki /usr/share/moin/mywiki/cgi-bin/moin.cgi


</VirtualHost>

These are the only references to moinmoin in my Apache configuration files.


When I type adorio-research.org/mywiki I get the error in the subject line.
I have Googled and I cannot pinpoint the error, there lots of confusing OLD
documents.

Can you give me pointers, please?

tia,

Subject: [Moin-user] Snake eats spam!
Message-ID: <2e24105e0909122203x5aada5aal939b537e67310140@mail.gmail.com>

I am proud to say I have solved my spamming problem with a little Moin
hacking, my first hack! (Python is so cool)

This mod to PageComment2.py block spammers at the Apache .htaccess
file. The page stops writing and displays no comments. Subsequent POST
operations are redirected to an ugly offsite error page. No logging is
done in Moin, but the .htaccess file acts as a log.
NOTE: Excessively long rewrite lists can slow down your server. Trim
the list from the bottom periodically.

Starting at line 255:

if not missingfields:
    # check input
    import os, fileinput
    badWords=['preteen', ...etc]
    for badWord in badWords:
        if comtext.find(badWord)!=-1:
            for line in
fileinput.input('/Library/WebServer/WikiFarm/.htaccess', inplace=1): #
OSX path
                print line[:-1]
                if line.startswith("RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST"):
                    print "RewriteCond %%{REMOTE_ADDR} ^%s [OR]" %
os.environ.get('REMOTE_ADDR').replace(".", "\.")
            return ""


To set this up, your .htaccess file needs to be redirecting. Use text like this:

# Block page vandals
# Addresses are written by script
/Library/WebServer/WikiFarm/plugin/macro/PageComment2.py line 269
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^222
RewriteRule .* http://etc.Gnarlodious.com/Support_Files/BlockedAddress.htm [L]

IP addresses to be blocked will be written after the line
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST

The great thing about this method is that they can't experiment for
which words need to be erased since their IP address is blocked from
saving any files. My battle with these spammers has taught me that it
is a virus that turns an infected computer into a proxy for this spam.
There is probably a better way to block using CAPTCHA but its not
working for me. I think the PageComment2 macro is a little old for
this spam offensive I am warding off.

Before using textcha for anti-spam, I used

<LimitExcept GET>
# wiki spammers
Deny from 12.54.14 # 12.54.14.178
#...
</LimitExcept>

to forbid known spammers.  Might be more efficient than a re-write.

Just ?a follow up to my previous post.
I was using an old 7.10 Moin installation guide.
The most recent I believe installation instructions is now at

https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/moinmoin.html

and with this guide (after removing all instances of the bad install
and previous versions)., I was able to run the moinmoin app.

Thanks for a great software. I have to be more familiar with it as I
am with Wordpress.

Regards,
ernie.

Well if your valid users are in the textcha disabled group then only
people who like to get an account will get a textcha question.

Hi Waqas,

Please note that mod_wsgi 2.3 has known problems with saving pages or
file uploading for specific file sizes. Any more recent version of
mod_wsgi should work better.

That is NOT related to your problem with moin dump, though.

> 1. Created one output dir= C:/temp/moinexport

You do not need to do that (1. and 2.), moin export dump creates those
directories (of course, it needs the filesystem permissions to be able
to do that).

> export dump --page=CatAuthors --target=C:/temp/moinexport

I don't think it is a problem in your specific case (you only have one
wiki, not a farm, so likely everything you give will match), but be
careful when specifying --wiki-url (in moin 1.8, I think you must NOT
give http://, just localhost/supwiki).

OK, that is normal. It only writes that one page because you told it to
do so.

It should tell "Writing ..." for all attachments of it also, though.

Well, all that "minimal theme" stuff is rather intended for full dumps
of all wiki pages. If you just dump one page, you'll only get that
single html file.

> Now I open the CatAuthors.html page and it is also the same page like

Check if filesystem permissions are OK. The user you run the script as
must be able to read the attachments and write them to the new
attachments folder in the output directory.

> The exported html pages don?t have the contents and attachments of the
> pages.

That's very strange. Are they ACL protected? You need to specify the
user for doing the dump in that case.

BTW, your attachments: are their names pure ascii or any special
non-ascii characters in the names?

Cheers,

Thomas

hi,

using: Apache/2.2.13 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.2.13 OpenSSL/0.9.8k mod_wsgi/2.3 Python/2.5.2 mod_auth_sspi/1.0.4 + moinoin184

 

i want to use xapian search for our wiki. i have installed the "xapian-python-bindings for Python 2.5.1 -1.0.16.win32.exe" from the following link.

http://www.flax.co.uk/xapian_windows.shtml


and added the " xapian_search = 'true' " in wikiconfig.py. I also restarted the apache. 

 

and then i go to the page where i put the <<SystemInfo>>. it is showing to me,

Xapian search 
Disabled, Xapian 1.0.16
 

I think that i am missing some steps somewhere. I have read the page http://moinmo.in/HelpOnXapian and i dont understand about the table "filterPlugin" under the "Requirements" heading.


 

Any help will be appreciated. thanks a lot. 
 
Cheers, 
Waqas

It is:

    xapian_search = True  # boolean, not string

You also have to build an index (see HelpOnXapian), otherwise it might
be auto-disabled, because without index, it can't work.

It just means that if you want to index MS word, excel or pdf files, you
need additional software (listed in column "Dependency"). This software
is needed to extract pure text from those (more or less) binary files.

Hi again Thomas, 

 

i have solved my problem. I have built the index. The problem was the build index command. 

In the HelpOnXapian document command starts with "moin". but now i tried with following command.

 

C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\MoinMoin\script>moin.py --config-dir=C:\moin\supwiki --wiki-url=https://nv1402/supwiki index build --mode=add


but then i got the following error msg.


import win32event
ImportError: No module named win32event

then i have installed the pywin32 from this site  http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/ 


and again run the above command. so every thing fine now. 

 

Now i am going to sleep. i will check the search performance tomorrow.

 

thanks for your help really.
take care 

 

bye

Dear All,

Trying to find a solution to my own configuration problem which is
similar, I have a question regarding the `script_name' property. When
using a wiki farm, is it possible to kind of overload this property in
each wiki configuration file (one.py and two.py in my situation)? Or has
this property only a meaning in the `moin.fcg' file?

I am using lighttpd (Apache is not easy to consider as several services
are already in production on the host). Using mode_rewrite I can access
the proper page in the proper wiki when typing its url.

  http://mydomain.org/one/FrontPage

But the returned page does not include the wiki name for links (which I
can understand). So I cannot navigate from page to page inside the wiki.
Clicking on RecentChanges brings me to http://mydomain.org/RecentChanges
and not http://mydomain.org/one/RecentChanges. Which seems correct from
the fastcgi script as it received only this part of the information.

excerpt from 10-fastcgi.conf:

    url.rewrite-once = (
        "^/robots.txt" => "/robots.txt",
        "^/favicon.ico" => "/favicon.ico",
        "^/static/(.*)" => "/static/$1",
        "^/[^/]*/(.*)" => "/wiki-engine/$1"
    )

excerpt from farmwiki.py:

wikis = [
    ("one", r"^mydomain.org/one.*$"),
    ("two", r"^mydomain.org/two.*$"),
]


I have three wiki instances to run. Should I move to a non farm-based
solution and install each wiki independently? Then I can easily tweak
the `script_name' property on each `moin.fcg' file. It does not seems
the cleanest solution but if it is the only one I can live with it.

Thanks,
raphael

I am looking for advice in installing MoinMoin on ubuntu.  The ubuntu/server
instructions for MoinMoin results in a gui editor not working.

Do others do a manual install of MoinMoin on ubuntu?

The debian (and maybe also the ubuntu) package maintainers have removed
the GUI editor we usually bundly with moin for package security
maintenance reasons.

Well, if you want something fresh, just using the download archive is

The GUI editor was removed in 1.6.2-1
Since 1.8.2-2, Moinmoin can use Debian/Ubuntu's system-wide version of
fckeditor.

If you use moinmoin >= 1.8.2 (i.e Jaunty or Karmic), make sure you
install the package "fckeditor" as it is merely "suggested" in Ubuntu.

Message-ID: <904774730909230750w267817fakeeb7dd31155a0612@mail.gmail.com>

I have a wiki that has experienced the same problem several times. I
attempt to edit a page and when I save changes, the page just
disappears. When I go into Info, all the revisions are there, but
trying to get back the latest version ends up with the page deleted
again. This has happened with the FrontPage and two or three other
pages.

Is this a known problem or am I just lucky?

I had some similar circumstance a while back, until I added

 log_reverse_dns_lookups = False

to my farmconfig. This sped up the update process, and the problem went 
away. Also if you are using mod_python, look into mod_wsgi.

Subject: [Moin-user] Global-variables
Message-ID: <BAY111-W4630B90EC889E0643AC67687DA0@phx.gbl>



Hi, 

 

I want to create some variables for my whole wiki users. I have different templates and i want to use those variables in templates. 

when i create variables under my homepage e.g: Amd/MyDict

then it is only accessible for me, not for other users. can someone tell me how can i create global variables.

i tried also with <<GetVal(Amd/MyDict,Support)>>. This macro gives me the value of variable but it disables the link for CamelCase words. 

 

Thanks 

 

Best Regards, 

Waqas

Hello. I have a problem with MoinMoin when I try to use it through a reverse
proxy server. It is about a MoinMoin installation that runs as a cgi. My
problem is the I get a surge protection very soon and  moreover the links
don't work. Do you have any idea of what is wrong here? Thanks.

Look into MoinMoin/request/__init__.py (at the top of the file).

Hi there,

I'm new to MoinMoin, and I'm testing the DesktopEdition for now. I'm
running it under Windows Vista, and I was wondering if there is any
way to have the wikiserver.py running in the background without having
a DOS-like window always open, or at least if there is a way to
minimize tht to the windows side tray, like just a small icon on the
right.

Thanks a lot,
Gustavo.

Hi!

I posted the two files involved on http://paste.pocoo.org/ :
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/139766/
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/139770/

The first file is the MoinMoin theme where I added an extra link to the
editbar labeled "ParentPage". This in turn generates an action Parent
(look for the comment "# GBS" before the sections in question), which
determines a script called "Parent.py" to be executed. Please bear in
mind that I'm not (yet :) an expert in either MoinMoin or Python, so
don't mind if I say something wrong or obvious..

I edited the main MoinMoin wiki-page to include the parameter:
#pragma redirect-to-link "http://www.apple.com"

The second file "Parent.py" simply tries to access this parameter,
redirect-to-link, and print its content.

When I click on the "Parent Page" with the main MoinMoin page opened, I
get the output:
"Redirect to parent page:
None "
which means that the the parameter redirect-to-link is empty.

(What I actually want to do is to use the value of the parameter to
initiate a redirect to the page it denotes, in this example
apple.com...)

Thanks,
George

I am pleased to report only one spamming instance since implementing
this filter, and it was in Russian. My blocked IP list has collected
110 computers in 17 days. Real happy about this mod, especially since
they only get one chance to spam. Subsequent spam attempts are blocked
by Apache. If you are having spam attacks from the PageComment2 macro,
consider it as a solution (and perhaps improve it).
