Aspiring Contractor Questions
1st Aspiring Contractor
- Contractor
- Can you provide a test user for login so that I can replicate the issue?
- Natalia
- Here is a test entry in order to access the Wiki at: https://pravka.bskol.com
- login Umang
- password ciMyPR88
- Contractor
- Can you provide me OpenLDAP server access so that I can check the logs and troubleshoot?
- Natalia
- As for the 2nd request, the problem is not with LDAP, but that MediaWiki cannot create a local record. There is no need to do anything at all with our LDAP server). Everything works fine in other applications. In addition, we have an old version of the Wiki, we would like to update it.
- Contractor
- What is your approx budget for this project? For update current OpenLDAP login system or replace it with a new one, with end to end testing?
- Natalia
- It is better to ask Igor about the budget. For me, the less, the better. But you can also ask the contractor, since he offers his services. What is his work budget?
- Contractor
- It seems you are using a custom code for LDAP authentication, unfortunately, I cannot help with this.
- Natalia
- We use a special plugin that does not work in the new version of MediaWiki. To configure the LDAP, you can use what you are used to. Which plugin do you use?
2nd Aspiring Contractor
- Kevin
- Have you had a look at what this project entails through the following link? https://wiki.cnmcyber.com/en/CNM_MediaWiki?
- Contractor
- Hi, yes I tried to visit the site but it's giving DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN error so can you please check?
- Kevin
- Try this link. From my end it works perfectly https://wiki.cnmcyber.com/en/CNM_MediaWiki
- Contactor
- That's strange. On my Wifi it's showing NXDOMAIN error but when opening the site using Opera VPN it's working fine. Ok, so I looked at the page and can work on fixing the "Auto-creation of local account failed" error linked to LDAP and on issues highlighted in the File repository subsection.
- Also, if you want me to install extensions I can do so as mentioned in the Security section, and fix the file upload permission as mentioned in the Upload security section. So please let me know if you have any question.
- Natalia
- Yes, we have version 1.31.1. But we would like to configure LDAP login on the latest version. Can you do it?
- Contractor
- Yes, I can do that on the latest version. Is it on the same domain "wiki.cnmcyber.com" or some other?
- Natalia
- It doesn't matter. Any other domain name can be used for experiments. How much time will it take to do this job.
- Contractor
- It can take around 5-6 hours to resolve the issue because I first need to find out the reason behind it and then apply fixes accordingly.
- Kevin
- Hello, I hope you are well. Apart from MediaWiki, we have other projects we need assistance with. Are you available for a brief meeting later in the day?
