Defyboy, have you tried talking to Syscon via these points? -COK-001/002: http://goput.it/str/ftq.jpg -SEM-001: http://goput.it/str/txq.jpg

I have had some success with the Syscon UART I have not yet tried the southbridge, The JTAG doesn't respond. ----

Maybe time for some better rechapta or add a simple human question "what color are strawberries?" e.g. ;) Euss

There, simple capcha as obviously ReCapcha isn't working effectively anymore.



Proposal[edit source]

make a category Storage with in it the pages

then in each page the needed subsections just like done with the firmware pages (but instead of 1.00/1.02 etc the subsections

  • firstregion
    • Header
    • Filetable
    • asecure
    • eEID
    • cISD
    • cCSD
    • trvk_prg
    • trv_pkg
    • creserved
    • ros
    • cvtrm
  • second region
  • CELL_EXTNOR_AREA
  • Bootloader
  • cell_ext_os_area

Simular can be done with harddrive, by splitting it into:

  • dev_flash1
    • System folders (that are also replaced per FW install)
    • User folders
    • Other files
  • dev_flash2
  • dev_flash3
  • FAT
  • Other regions

etc.

Other storage devices: Syscon EEPROM, BD Flash, BT/Wifi Flash, Sixaxis/Dualshock3 Flash etc.

I see no good other way to split the pages to make them smaller and easy navigational Euss

Server error after changing host[edit source]

http error 503 : User has reached the maximum amount of processes while being limited, Webmaster: please contact support. (9)

Euss

It's hostgator still, we haven't changed yet. I am sorting out some other issues with the new host. There was an unusually high volume of traffic yesterday so it should be fine for a while


Wiki Images[edit source]

If there is some request for other wiki images just ask --Sandungas 02:20, 8 February 2013 (MSK)

problems after outage 7 feb 2013[edit source]

export/backup[edit source]

404

XML format, last page revision only, no images
http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/PS3_Development_Wiki_talk:Community_portal#Daily_dumps

FTP service not answering or blocked by firewall[edit source]

[R] Connection failed (Connection refused)

With SSH/SCP not really a priority.


Stop Wiki Spam[edit source]

(already installed : http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit)
I want to give you a suggestion. change the Q&A question with something like "What is the abbreviation of 'Sony Entertainment Network' ?"; completely delete the question "This Wiki is devoted to which console?" because it's known that the bot knows the answer.

LocalSettings.php[edit source]

line 160
file was not writeable for me

request Extensions[edit source]

for fighting aforementioned spam[edit source]

other reasons[edit source]

New sites - problems[edit source]

no errors making account anymore, only missing some extensions

Current bugs[edit source]

  • Imagick or related seems to have problems making thumbs @ RC-S380
  • image upload fails many times with files <= 2MB
    • Internal error: Something went wrong with processing your upload on the wiki.
  • call me old fashioned, but the old upload worked fine

Secret question change[edit source]

while you take care of gitorious today, please change the secret question, since bots are ruining the recent changes page again, please :)

Wiki extensions problems (2022)[edit source]

  • It seems the ParserFunctions string support is not working, i realized about it when i was doing some experiments at the bottom of Template:Ps2configrev. As far i understand the string support is not enabled in a default installation, is required to add the line $wgPFEnableStringFunctions = true; in the webserver file LocalSettings.php, please enable it--Sandungas (talk) 16:38, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
  • The SyntaxHighlight extension is broken since years ago, the only thing it does is to display the content as a <pre>. I was reading about it and i know it have many dependencies (pygments library, etc...) but at this point i think we can uninstall all them and reinstall the latest versions without much hassle because the extension is already completly broken--Sandungas (talk) 16:38, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
