I'm keeping an eye on the deki logs in hopes of finding something that might be worth posting.

Hello,

Since upgrading to 8.08 I've noticed our search indexes at Geek-PAC appear to need rebuilding on fairly regular basis. When this occurs none of our searches will return results, until a...

All pages produced an exception about MySQL not being able to connect, along with the error: "System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Mono.Posix"

My logs appear to have...

It could easily cause 500 errors. I'm not sure about the "Error creating standard error pipe" message though. The exceptions I was seeing were something along the lines of:

I am commenting based on my experience, where upgrading 2 deki instances from previous versions to 8.08 broke due to my use of unix socket, rather than TCP. Switching to TCP resolved my problems.
...

By the way, 8.08 does not support connecting the database using a unix socket. This is due to Mono.posix not being included with the 8.08 distribution.

Pete mentioned that you can work around...

The error you included indicates that "localhost" was unresolvable. Can you run "host localhost" or "ping localhost" and confirm that it resolves, as well as to what IP address?

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks. :)

Hello,

Is it possible to access extension configuration settings via dekiscript? I am working on a few dekiscript extensions, which access APIs that require end users to register for an API key....

The bytesfree.org team recently stumbled across some mono issues in the Hardy 8.04 and 8.04.1 releases that we thought the Deki community might be interested in. Basically we found that after...

A quick grep -r through the source code doesn't bring up any mentions of that string in the Itasca or Jay Cooke releases. I haven't had a chance to go back to Hayes or Goosebery.

Hello,

Is the ui/max-nav-items configuration item still supported? It does not appear to be working in 8.05. If it is no longer a valid setting, is there an alternative way in which the length...

Thanks Steve. The patch from SVN solves the issue.

As we discussed on IRC, I think I've found the issue. It appears that web.text is doing some sort of caching. As a result, if I do multiple web.text calls to the same URL but with different...

Hello,

Any ideas why the following works in 1.90 but not in 8.05?

{{ web.text('http://api.sunlightlabs.com/people.getDataItem.php?id=fakeopenID340&code=district&output=xml','//district') }}

Steve, thanks for the reply.

Originally what I was trying to do is find out if a specific ID existed in a feed. So //cosponsors/cosponsor[@id=40001]. However, I wasn't sure how to check for...

Hello,

I've noticed that when using web.text and an xpath query only the first result of the xpath query is returned.
Is there anyway to return a list of the entire result set? For example the...

Thanks! I'll go ahead and give this a shot.

By the way, I am running 1.9.0b.

Hmm, its outputing as if it received no arguements. I.E:

Steve,
Thank you for taking a look. Changing it to (args.fromcode ?? "fromcode") results in the following being returned:

Hello,

I'm attempting to create an extension for the Sunlight Foundation API using dekiscript. The first function I added peopleConvertID takes 3 arguments, but when I evaluate them they don't...

Awesome. I was looking at that function in the documetnation and hoping it would help.

Hello,

I'm trying to pull data into a deki wiki from the sunlight api web service. The results of the webserive are returned in name value pairs using the following format:
