[Semediawiki-user] Page Schema extension does not recognize Page Schema XML as Schema

[rkevans]

Hello,

Page Schema creation tool works great in Category page but does not
recognize it's own XML as an existing Schema.

Specifically, I used the Page Schema tools in a Category page to create a
very simple page schema and hit save.
Page Schema produced the expected XML but still has the "create schema" link
in the page menu.

When I force the "generatepages" action from the URL it responds with:

Generate pages
Error: There is no page schema defined for this category.

MediaWiki 1.28.2
PHP 7.0.19-1 (apache2handler)
MariaDB 10.1.23-MariaDB-9+deb9u1
Semantic MediaWiki 2.5.2
Page Forms 4.1.2 (f28e07b) 16:54, 20 June 2017
Page Schemas 0.4.6 (1579c73) 10:12, 7 June 2017

any advice on how to troubleshoot this?

-Rich

[solved - I think] ... careful inspection of the parser hook documentation in
"Special:Version" says that the hook <pageschema> is defined... careful
inspection of the actual XML produced by the Schema helper tool shows XML
encapsulated by the tag <PageSchema>

So.. I manually edited the XML produced by the Page Schema helper tool and
replaced the <PageSchema> (and </PageSchema> ) tags with <pageschema> and
</pageschema> .. refreshed the cache (action=purge), refreshed the browser
cache (Ctrl-F5) and then (interestingly) the Edit Schema/Generate Pages were
available in the menu bar... success!

any thoughts on why this worked? Is this a bug? if so.. in what extension?

P.S. I tried *just* purging the cache and refreshing the browser to no
avail.. for some reason it really needs the lower-case <pageschema> tags to
be recognized.. i tried reverting back to

Hi Rich,

I'm very glad you were able to figure this out, because I had no idea what
the issue could be.

I still have no idea why "<PageSchema>" is failing while "<pageschema>" is
succeeding. Or rather, I guess it's half-failing: it correctly displays the
schema on the template page, but it doesn't save the schema information to
the database (specifically, the page_props table). It may be due to your
MediaWiki version (1.28.2, you said), though I can't imagine how.

Actually, I'm surprised both that "PageSchema" fails, and that "pageschema"
succeeds. It makes me think that perhaps it was just the page re-save that
did it, and not the XML rename. But I don't know if that's true.

Thanks Yaron. I see what you mean about the trick being to make any edit
rather than the specific edit I mentioned of changing the case on the
PageSchema tag. Assuming that it really is just any actual change edit that
solved the issue, what could be the problem? what can I do to get the system
to recognize the created schema without having to force and edit cycle?

Thanks!
