[Phpwiki-talk] Assertion failed errors on flatfile phpwiki

[Doyce T. <sm...@av...>]

Pertinent info:  I'm on a hosted account.  The server is running Linux, 
Apache version 1.3.29, PHP version 4.3.4, and I'm running flatfile dbm 
(the default config).  The wiki can be viewed at 
http://www.average-bear.com/wiki/

-----

My problem: I'm consistently getting 'assertion failed' messages while 
using phpwiki.  Examples follow:

EXAMPLE 1
When saving a page I've been editing, I will often (not always) get an 
error message when I hit save: a page will display:

lib/WikiDB.php:787: Fatal[0]: <br 
/>/home/doyce/public_html/wiki/lib/WikiDB.php:787: : Assertion failed <br />

    * Note 1: this doesn't always happen -- usually I get this error 
when I save a page to which I've added a WikiWord.  The page DOES still 
save... if I refresh from the error message page, the 'reload' 
confirmation appears and the page loads correctly.

    * Note 2:  the <br /> bits in the error message are not a result of 
me Viewing the source of the page... they actually display that way on 
the page.  "View source" on this error message shows me that the page is 
specifically showing me the special html characters using ascii encoding.

EXAMPLE 2
The 'Diff' button on the bottom of each page fails intermittently (about 
as often as I get the error message in Example 1, above, but not on the 
same pages.  The error message (very similar to Example 1) reads:

lib/WikiDB.php:787: Fatal[0]: <br 
/>/home/doyce/public_html/wiki/lib/WikiDB.php:787: : Assertion failed <br />

EXAMPLE 3
On most of the pages on which Diff doesn't work, Page History also fails:

lib/WikiDB.php (In template 'browse') (In template 'body') (In template 
'html'):787: Fatal[0]: <br 
/>/home/doyce/public_html/wiki/lib/WikiDB.php:787: : Assertion failed <br />

EXAMPLE 4
The RecentChanges page simple doesn't work at all.  The error message 
reads: 

lib/WikiDB/backend/dumb/MostRecentIter.php (In template 'browse') (In 
template 'body') (In template 'html'):28: Fatal[0]: <br 
/>/home/doyce/public_html/wiki/lib/WikiDB/backend/dumb/MostRecentIter.php:28: 
: Assertion failed <br />

EXAMPLE 5
RecentEdits also doesn't work at all.  The error message is suspiciously 
similar to the RecentChanges message:

lib/WikiDB/backend/dumb/MostRecentIter.php (In template 'browse') (In 
template 'body') (In template 'html'):28: Fatal[0]: <br 
/>/home/doyce/public_html/wiki/lib/WikiDB/backend/dumb/MostRecentIter.php:28: 
: Assertion failed <br />

-----

I realize that most of these errors are probably connected to one or two 
screw ups in configuration on my part, and I'm perfectly willing to work 
through whatever I need to do to fix them -- I'm very impressed with 
PHPWiki as a whole and I look forward to working with it extensively in 
the future, so any help on these issues would be much appreciated.  Thanks.

[Doyce T. <sm...@av...>]

Okay, here's another hint:  I almost always get these assertion errors 
when I try to save, view Diffs, or Page history on larger pages -- 
smaller pages almost always work -- is there some time limit I'm running 
into?

Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Assertion failed errors on flatfile phpwiki

[Joby W. <joby@u.washington.edu>]

Sorry missed your earlier reply...

You could try increasing your resource limits in php.ini:

max_execution_time = ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

I don't use flatfile db's so I'm not too familiar with issues related to them... 
  Which db/version are you using?

Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Assertion failed errors on flatfile phpwiki

[Doyce T. <sm...@av...>]

This looks like just the thing I need...

Except, I don't see a php.ini in my wiki directory, so I'm assuming this 
is a server-side setting.  I'm on a hosted server and I suppose I need 
to ask them to change this?

(Which they might do, cuz they're cool like that, but I feel I should 
clarify first before asking.)

What would you suggest setting these three resource limits to?

Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Assertion failed errors on flatfile phpwiki

[Joby W. <joby@u.washington.edu>]

php.ini is a server-wide config file that affects how php behaves for every php 
program.  It's location is highly dependant on what platform/distribution you 
are running (on Gentoo it is under /etc/php/).  If this is your box, to find it 
you could run:

find / | grep php.ini

If you do not have access to the php.ini file you can override most options with 
the ini_set() function (though I am not sure if all three can be overridden):

http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.ini-set.php

I have:

max_execution_time = 300
max_input_time = 60
memory_limit = 16M

The 300s max_execution_time is a bit high, but I have some other administrative 
webapplications that take a long time.

Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Assertion failed errors on flatfile phpwiki

[Norberto M. <nu...@me...>]

You should also be able to set some php settings in the Apache config 
(to which you probably won't have access...but you can always use a 
.htaccess...and if you can't...then maybe it's time to look for another 
hoster ;-)

Cheers,
Beto

RE : [Phpwiki-talk] Assertion failed errors on flatfile phpwiki

[<jw...@fi...>]

Hi!
I'm interested to know the result of your modification because I have =
the
same problem.

I'm using phpwiki on a USB key with the flat file DB option.

For each NEW version on a somewhat large page (large being > 100 lines) =
I
have this assertion error when I save the page.

only for such pages I override it explicitly with
   ini_set("max_execution_time",240);

(download, upload and other similar stuff)

for the normal pages it's a pain to wait longer than ~8 seconds on any 
error.

Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Assertion failed errors on flatfile phpwiki

[Doyce T. <sm...@av...>]

Okay, I'm going to be particularly slow about this.

If I were going to use this line:

ini_set("max_execution_time",240);

which my host assures me I have the clearance to set... where would I 
put it?  I'm assuming in the index.php in my wiki directory, but where?

Addendum to this.  My host tells me that I can set these settings simply 
by including lines in my .htaccess directory, the format being:

php_value (phpvalue)=(parameter)

So, for example, to change the max_execution_time to 240, you would add the line:

php_value max_execution_time=240

Except, when I add this to my .htaccess file, the whole site (not just 
the phpwiki, but the WHOLE site) switches to a 500 Internal Server 
Error.  Anyone familiar enough with .htaccess to know what I'm doing wrong?

I ran into this problem on OS X.. it only happened using the old markup 
system.  I changed my interface to not give people the option of using 
old markup and it went away.

Hmm.  I'm not seeing where you would set that.
