To reproduce: - edit any page at http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org - enter this at the top of the page: <math>3 + 2</math> - click button Show preview - error message appears: Internal error No backend defined with the name `global-multiwrite`.

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/59386 (Gerrit Change If808611bcb1115a8a77384c4418255f0ddd81f7f) | change APPROVED and MERGED [by jenkins-bot]
The change fix the first error: No backend defined with the name `global-multiwrite`.
Now lets look at installing texvc on beta. $ mwscript eval.php --wiki=enwiki > echo $wgTexvc /usr/local/apache/uncommon/master/bin/texvc > $ The uncommon dir is empty. So we need to generate the texvc under /data/project/apache/uncommon
I have Zerooo idea how to compile texvc nowadays :(
we'd like to point the Math browser test to beta since we'll be using test2 for VE testing for a bit, and the old editor and VE will be mutually exclusive See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Texvc
Is building texvc something Reedy has automated somewhere? https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49442 https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48991
(In reply to comment #8) > Is building texvc something Reedy has automated somewhere? > > https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49442 > https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48991 No. It was previously part of the normal scap process till Aaron removed it for being relatively slow. The code changes so infrequently, so in most cases, doing it once after initial deployment should be enough. The script I use is scap-recompile, and through dsh run it on all the apaches. dsh -F25 -cM -g mediawiki-installation -o -oSetupTimeout=10 'sudo -u mwdeploy /usr/bin/scap-recompile' bug 45076 is a request to package it and distribute it, so we wouldn't need to create a version per mediawiki deployment
if ( $wmgUseMath ) { require_once( "$IP/extensions/Math/Math.php" ); $wgTexvc = "/usr/local/apache/uncommon/$wmfVersionNumber/bin/texvc"; if ( $wgDBname === 'hewiki' ) { $wgDefaultUserOptions['math'] = 0; } $wgMathFileBackend = $wmgMathFileBackend; $wgMathDirectory = '/mnt/upload7/math'; // just for sanity $wgMathPath = $wmgMathPath; $wgUseMathJax = true; } Of course, the simple fix is to remove the version variant from that path to executable (at least, for wmf wikis) as an intermediate step
Test case is on http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Math <math>3 + 2</math> gives out: Failed to parse (Missing texvc executable; please see math/README to configure.): 3 + 2
Rebuild math on deployment-bastion as mwdeploy using /usr/bin/scap-recompile . The generated HTML points to production though: $ echo '<math>2+3</math>'|mwscript parse.php --wiki=enwiki parse.php: warning: reading wikitext from STDIN. Press CTRL+D to parse. <p><img class="tex" alt="2+3" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/math/4/4/c/44c7c5541a25b4ed6340e07dde8f8dca.png" /> </p> $

Jenkins job and Zuul triggers have been deployed (changes above). Whenever a change is merged in Math (for example a l10n update), we will have to check whether the job works properly at https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/job/beta-recompile-math-texvc/ Hence this bug is very close to be resolved for good.
The Jenkins job has been triggered properly after a merge. Math is thus self updating on beta \O/ https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/view/Beta/job/beta-recompile-math-texvc/2/
this is great, thank you!
