I moved the #Friendica Wiki to another server. I need some people to test it and see if all works. I will then solve the problems pointed out.

The initial setup was not done by me. It was still on a server with php 7.4 because it did not work with 8.x due to some plugins. I removed those plugins, apparently not maintained since 2014.

I also saw that it loads some js from some CDN, I don't like that either, so tips welcome on that. Maybe there is a plugin that stores such stuff locally?

Also can you suggest a free service to analyze your webpage, show problem, broken links and such?

I saw that the Avatar (only a systemwide standard avatar for all users) is not displayed in my Firefox, but looks fine on Chromium. May be a DNS issue, so local issue only, seems tailscale some how messes up my DNS resolution. But please have a look for any embedded stuff that does not load!

Send me screenshots if you like and/or links to the problem page.

Here is the wiki.friendi.ca

@utzer [Pleroma] I think you could use wget to check for broken links..

I use this for a local website and think it is also possible for a live website. I think there was also some option to adjust how many 'clicks' will be done per second.. or so

#!/bin/bash

#r: recursive
#nd: no directories (don't create them)
#nv: non verbose
#l 1: level (scan deepness)
#w 2: wait seconds between requests
#p: get all page requisites such as images, etc. needed to display HTML page so we can find broken image links too
#o: output

wget --spider -r -nd http://localhost/mysite/
@utzer [Pleroma] the wiki looks not okay for me, as if some CSS or JS is missing.. menues are not collapsed

@noidea I don't see any such problem, can you take a screenshot?
Also can you share "dig +short wiki.friendi.ca A wiki.friendi.ca AAAA"?

If you have an addon/extension in your browser, that shows the IP, quickly double check the IP it loads the page from.

Thanks.

Dokuwiki is a bit more complicated as it looks like.

@noidea now all should be working fine. Thanks for your help.

@utzer [Pleroma] I usually use chromium.. Now I tried also with a (quite) fresh firefox, I think without addons.. shows the same problems.. Network console shows: "NS_ERROR_CORRUPTED_CONTENT" for bootstrap and some other files..

maybe I must clear some local cache or so...

@utzer [Pleroma] chromium does not show that error, but some files are 0 bytes big:

This page failed to load a stylesheet from a URL.

5 Anfragen
font-awesome.min.css

spacelab.fonts.css

fa.css
@utzer [Pleroma] when I try to open https://wiki.friendi.ca/lib/plugins/icons/assets/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css, the browser instead loads the whole website

Right now, I'm getting 404 for all pages. Earlier, I looked up the 'moving accounts' page and the layout wasn't how it should be. I'd send a screenshot if I didn't get the 404 right now 😀

Kudos for going through the effort of upgrading this!

@gmc I am constantly working on it, it was 404 for some minutes, right now it should work and also what you describe should be fixed right now. But I will adjust some nginx conf further.
@gmc
Looks good now!
@gmc now all should be working fine. Thanks for your help.
@gmc
@tek now all should be working fine. Thanks for your help.
@utzer [Pleroma] @Tek aEvl looks good, here and errors are gone 👍
