[Wikitech-l] Slippy map embedded in geohack page not working in HTTPS mode

2013-08-30 Thread Neil Harris
I've just noticed that the slippy map within the wmflabs GeoHack page 
does not work when accessed via HTTPS, and thought I should mention it here.


For example, compare:

http://tools.wmflabs.org/geohack/geohack.php?pagename=Fooparams=10_N_10_E

with

https://tools.wmflabs.org/geohack/geohack.php?pagename=Fooparams=10_N_10_E

Could this be a mixed-content issue involving the script that drives the 
slippy map not using protocol-relative URLs, or the slippy map tile 
provider not responding to HTTPS?

Hmm... HTTPS Everywhere might be borking something in my Firefox and making
it work unexpectedly. :)

In Chrome, I do see mixed-content warnings in the JavaScript console; tiles
and such appear to be being loaded insecurely.

Firefox 24.0 beta 6, running on Debian Linux 6.0.

I wonder if this may involve some tighter checking on same-origin etc. 
in Firefox 24. If so, this may be an early warning of possible problems 
when Firefox push 24.0 out to the wide world in a few weeks' time.


I'll go check this on some other browser/OS combinations.

Looking it up... Per 
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Security/MixedContent the default
block on mixed HTTPS/HTTP content was added in Firefox 23, so it might just
be that HTTPS Everywhere is activating even when I've got it disabled and
silently 'fixing' it for me. :)

I can confirm the load fail on my Windows box which has a fresher Firefox
23 installation.

I'll go check this on some other browser/OS combinations.


IE 10 also shows a warning, though you can click through to show the hidden
content. Safari seems to pass it through.

I definitely recommend fixing the geohack page to work properly over SSL...

Isn’t the only problem the hardcoded http: URL for the map iframe in

iOS 6 on an iPhone is also happy to display the slippy map on the https:

I requested some of WMF people to make this project as an official
project several times but no progress despite the fact that this
project has been active since 2003 and It's one of the most widely
used framework for editing in WMF projects

I added some names but there are some projects that are not very
active or written for just once time running (like sf-export which is
under constructing for migration from sourceforge to bugzilla

But feel free to edit mercilessly!

Full schedule:
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments#Week_of_September_2nd


== Monday ==
No deploys! US holiday! (Labor Day)


== Tuesday ==
* E2: Deploying updates/bug fixes to Echo and PageTriage
* MediaWiki Core: We'll be deploying 1.22wmf15 to all non-Wikipedia
  sites (Wiktionary, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wikibooks, Wikiquote,
  Wikiversity, and a few other sites) 
** See the release notes here:
   https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.22/wmf15


== Wednesday ==
* Wikipedia Zero: Finalizing their intended code
* MobileFrontEnd: Graciously moved to Wed to allow MWCore on Tuesday.
* Gerrit: The machine that hosts Gerrit will be swapped for a much more
  powerful machine. This should not cause any issues to end users if
  things go to plan.


== Thursday ==
* MediaWiki Core: Version 1.22wmf15 will be deployed to all Wikipedia
  language sites.
* MediaWiki Core: The next release of MediaWiki, 1.22wmf16, will be
  deployed to the test wiki group (test.wikipedia, test2.wikipedia,
  test.wikidata, and mediawiki.org)
* E3 is deploying bug fixes to GuidedTour and GettingStarted.

== Friday ==
No deploys! It's Friday!


Have a good weekend and let me know if you have any questions,

[Wikitech-l] login Javascript?

2013-08-30 Thread Steve Summit
I have a bot editing script that started having trouble logging
in to the English Wikipedia a few days ago.  I think what's
happening is that the login process started using Javascript in a
way it didn't before, and is detecting that my script doesn't do
Javascript (which it doesn't), and throwing a second, fallback,
non-Javascript-using login page at the point where the script is
expecting to have already logged in.

So the question is, if this is the case, is there a way to force
the use of the non-Javascript login page from the beginning?
Or if this is not the case, is there some other recent change
that might have affected the flow?

(And, in case you're wondering, no, the script does not use the
API, but yes, I know about it, and this may be the circumstance
that goads me into actually using it.)

 So the question is, if this is the case, is there a way to force
 the use of the non-Javascript login page from the beginning?
 Or if this is not the case, is there some other recent change

 API, but yes, I know about it, and this may be the circumstance
 that goads me into actually using it.)
