I've just trimmed this a bit - Martinp23 19:28, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
Definitely version 3.9? I thought we'd resolved any problems relating to Item[3]... --kingboyk 20:00, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
That was on the assumption that the problem was in the logging tab, and that wrapping all calls to Subitems into a Property with error handling would cause any errors to show up as a messagebox rather than a runtime error. Assumption may of course have been incorrect; problem might be elsewhere in the code. --kingboyk 20:11, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

To duplicate: Run general fixes on this:
'''Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Sandbox'''. The AWB Sandbox. Feel free to use this for your tests, but please bear in mind other folks may be using it at the same time :)

[[WP:AWB]]

[[Image:Example.jpg]]

[[Image:test.jpg]]

[[Category:Test]]
[[Category:something]]

Double click on the second-to-last yellow line, and you'll see that the text [[image:test.jpg]] is added to the bottom of the text box, which is not the expected behavior, as the line that was clicked on was not the line with the image. Next double click on the same second-to-last yellow line again, and you'll see that another [[image:test.jpg]] is inserted, but this time in a different place. Click the same second-to-last yellow line again and then something weird happens.

Sounds like that's not so much incorrect logging as AWB skipping a page it ought to retry? i.e. it thinks it saved it, but it doesn't. Or am I incorrect in that analysis? --kingboyk 12:39, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Regex issue #2

Status Bug not confirmed
Description This issue existed for a while, but I wasn't sure if I was the one doing something wrong. At first, I started the Typos subpage on the Ukrainian Wikipedia. Some of the regexes didn't seem to work correctly, even though they worked under "Test regex" in AWB. Now I'm having an issue creating a module, here's the piece of regex that I used: {{(З|з)ображення.*?{.

Incorrect template delimiting

Status Fixed in the next release
Description AutoWikiBrowser incorrectly assumes that any template-like delimiters ('{{' or '}}') are the delimiters for the current template. For the same reasons, nested parameter code causes problems. For example, it will incorrectly parse these two examples into four distinct templates (highlighted):
{{header|notes={{wikipedia}} This is a note.}}
{{dated prod|concern = {{{concern|non notable stub}}}|month = ...

This bug affects:

  • 'Replace Special'→'Inside template calls {{..}}'
  • Template-parsing by automatic cleanup (such as re-ordering templates)
To duplicate: On an affected page (such as s:Constitution of the United States of America), perform a 'Replace special' rule with the following settings:
  • Check 'Regular expression'.
  • Select 'Inside template calls {{..}}' from the Type menu.
  • Search "^.*$".
  • Replace "template".
Operating system Windows XP SP2 (IE 6.0)
.NET FW Version Unknown
AWB version 3.2.0.0
Workaround The following will heuristically work around the problem when performing user-defined patterns. It will not work with the automatic functions (unless it is done automatically), since there's no way to perform the workaround both before and after the automated functions (it's one or the other).

This workaround will only work if the templates you are modifying are never nested (but can nest other templates), although the patterns could be changed to accomodate that for specific templates. If you expect nested nested templates, just run it an extra time for every extra level.

(These should be run with regular expressions enabled in single-line mode.)

Description Search Replace
bugfix: nested templates (entire text) ({{[^}]+?){{([^}]+?)}} $1~~templatestart~~$2~~templateend~~
normal patterns (the ones that need the workaround)
fix bugfix ~~templatestart~~(.+?)~~templateend~~ {{$1}}

English usage error apparently introduced by AWB

The current AWB apparently recommends replacing "is comprised of" with "comprises". This recommendation is not correct - such a replacement changes the meaning. An example of the error introduced can be seen at this link. Please correct AWB.

Skaal - Williamborg (Bill) 17:47, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

  1. The change was made by typo fixing, not AWB itself, so not a bug
  2. The change didn't change the meaning, although the usage is apparently surprising to some English speakers. See wikt:comprise and other dictionaries.
  3. The regexp has already been removed from the AWB typo list. -- JHunterJ 20:37, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

This is a similar problem to the one I reported here. The issue turned out to be the scripts in my monobook.js. They work fine with Firefox (indeed some only work with Firefox), but not with IE (either directly or indirectly through AWB). The fix I found was to disable my scripts when IE is the browser by wrapping the contents of my monobook.js with this:
//Detect IE5.5+
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE")==-1)
{
// Normal contents go here
}

I noticed what could be a bug in the opposite way. When "skip articles when no change made" is checked, AWB skips too often.

Minor design issues

Status Not a bug/currently unresolvable
Description Just two minor issues I just noticed:
  1. When the user clicks login but has an empty profile list (which many people who aren't used to having different profiles might), AWB takes the variable's content (ie. null) and checks it against the checkpage. A simple message box (ie. Please create a new profile.) might prevent quite a bit of grief when 4.0 gets released. ;)
  2. The CFD plugin is enabled (ie. in the executable's directory) by default. Since CFD work is mostly done by bots anyway, that's probably not necessary. S up? 18:21, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Max already changed the first one, so the login button is only enabled if there are profiles. (Fixed after last release i believe)

Log tab & skipping code breakage

Status Fixed in the next release
Description rev 1441. I've uploaded some binaries, a readme file, and some XML files for testing to the svn repository to support this report. I know that fellow devs are aware of the problem, but I think it would be helpful to remind us of how it's supposed to work, and also use the version number here to do some detective work (i.e. what has changed since then which might have broken it)/

In the uploaded binary version (3.9.2.0) the following features work:

  • AWBlogListener is created by AWB and then sent through the article-processing process, including being

sent to active plugins

  • If the end result is to skip, the log entry gets added to the Ignored listview, with a reason
  • If the page is saved, the log entry is added to the Saved listview
  • All log entries have a tooltip with more info inside them

Broken in SVN (pretty much all of it) :

  • Article log entries all get added to Saved list
  • AWB doesn't skip in non bot-mode even if plugin tells it to skip (it skips in auto mode, however)
  • No tooltips on log items

Note we're talking here about the Logs tab, NOT "Logging options" and logging to wiki/XHTML. That had

seperate issues (trivial) which I've fixed, and needed a new upload solution based on AWBProfiles which

I fixed, as far as I can tell, log tab & skipping code breakage by rev 1464. I can't guarantee that nothing else has broken, because I had to do some merging of revisions, but I've not found anything yet.

Martin suggested wrapping the token-acquiring code in a Urlencode(), which appears to have done the trick. I've added some tracing ability to the uploader too, so if anything else does go wrong it will be easier for folks to file a meaningful report.
