Extension talk:Poll

Previous page history was archived for backup purposes at Extension talk:Poll/LQT Archive 1 on 2015-06-25.

I get this when I use this extension and run rebuildFileCache.php:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'DBTransactionError' with message 'Explicit transaction still active. A caller may have caught an error.' in /var/www/html/includes/libs/rdbms/loadbalancer/LoadBalancer.php:1045

Commenting wfLoadExtension( 'AJAXPoll' ); fixes this problem.

Caching with the poll may be problematic. I'm not quite sure how to solve this. Has anyone else encountered the issue?

Here's a bit more of the trace:

The first error tells about "Database is read-only". Did you put database in read only mode when running rebuildFileCache.php, or did you set $wgReadOnly to true?

We recently switched to VisualEditor. Its been great other then I can not figure out any way to insert a poll other than to go to edit source. Does anyone know a way to make it available via the insert menu?

I've installed the Mediawiki version 1.23 and also added this extension (ver 1.1 (2fe5854)).

I can see a page like w/Special:Poll where I can see two items listed as

1. Create a new Poll
2. Old Polls

But when I add a poll inside a page, its not parsed and I can't see a poll.

I see just the code as it is, <poll> Do you like this extension? Yes No I don't know yet. </poll>.

Can anybody help of fixing this issue?

Have you tried update.php?

Hi,

I have the same issue, but database maintenance is not an option for me. Way to much custom stuff in there.

What steps do I have to take to install this manually?

D

custom stuff? update.php only upgrades the table schema and/or data known to MediaWiki (and extensions that expose it), so it won't touch your custom tables or columns.
