Cache del mediawiki

La cache del mediawiki m'ha donat males passades.

Com deshabilitar-la, ja sigui per sempre, o de forma instantània, està explicat a la FAQ: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_FAQ#How_do_I_completely_disable_caching.3F

How do I completely disable caching?

Add in your LocalSettings.php file the following lines:

$wgEnableParserCache = false;
$wgCachePages = false;

Nota: la cache m'ha donat molts problemes quan alterno entre http://wiki.empresalibre.org i http://localhost/wiki. Aquesta és la solució que he trobat.

How do I purge cached pages?

• You can use ?action=purge on individual pages to update their cache dates.
• There is a global $wgCacheEpoch variable which can be set in LocalSettings.php to invalidate all prior cache entries (see DefaultSettings.php)
• If you want to purge all pages in the parser cache, truncate objectcache table from the wiki database. You may use this command:

TRUNCATE TABLE objectcache;

• A shell script such as this may be used

#! /bin/bash
# mwpurgecache - invalidate mediawiki cache

set -e

PROG=$(basename $0)
VER=0.1

function version() {
 echo "$PROG $VER - invalidate mediawiki cache

function usage() {

 echo "Syntax: $PROG [options] [--] [pages]

Options:

 -H, --host          host name           (default: localhost)
 -w, --wiki WIKI     server path to wiki (default: /wiki/)
 -u, --user USER     username for HTTP authentication
 -p, --passwd PASS   password for HTTP authentication
 -d, --dryrun        show commands without executing them
 -q, --quiet         quiet (no output)
 -v, --verbose       be verbose (print server response)
 -h, --help          display this message
 -V, --version       display version information

Options and arguments must be separated by whitespace.  WIKI must
match wgArticlePath, such that \$wgArticlePath = \"WIKI/\$1\". WIKI
must not contain regex special characters.

This script requests all wiki pages listed on the command line by
HTTP, prefixed by the wiki path, appending \`?action=purge' to the
URL. If no pages are specified, it retrieves the list of all pages
from Special:Allpages.

Examples:

 \$ $PROG Main_page Help:Contents
 \$ $PROG -H wiki.my.org -w /mediawiki -u joe -p banana
 \$ $PROG -H wiki.my.org --dryrun | wc -l
