Cloudron Forum

Beaut, thanks (again) @james that was very helpful.

Thanks @james . I was interested in how Cloudron set up a scheduler to run maintenance/runJobs.php. I couldn't find an answer to this particular question.

So far I haven't had any problems with the mediawiki job queue in Cloudron, but I have had issues of jobs not getting run frequently enough on another server. When one view in a Cloudron mediawiki instance did not seem to get updated and reflect recent changes, I started to look around. I hadn't got very far when I noticed it had, by then, already been updated. But I was still left with a bit of a question about how Cloudron handles this side of things.

I noticed this line in the "not for editing by users" /run/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php file:

# Use scheduler to run the job queue
$wgJobRunRate = 0;

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgJobRunRate says:
If $wgJobRunRate is 0 jobs will not be done during ordinary Apache requests. In this case, maintenance/runJobs.php should be run in loop every few seconds via a service or cron job.

So I tried to find out where this was scheduled in Cloudron, and how often, but so far I haven't been able to track this down.

Could someone please point me in the right direction? This is not a mission critical question, more an "understand a little how Cloudron does things" question.
thanks.

I could not see a link to edit the page, so I'm posting an issue here.

thanks.

Thanks James and Shane.

Cloudron makes it possible to install extensions that don't come bundled with the cloudron mediawiki app. https://docs.cloudron.io/packages/mediawiki/#installing

I'm new to the cloudron system and I presume any such extra extensions will need to be manually updated after a cloudron mediawiki app update? Is this correct? If not correct, how are such updates handled?

Thanks.
