@mwjames This drives me crazy. :| The build is now failing. Not sure if a blocker? I'd say no.

Hi,

@mwjames This drives me crazy. :| The build is now failing. Not sure if a blocker?

I had a quick look at it and it relates to the DB version used, the CI is running MySQL (and not MariaDB) which is more strict about using temporary table reference within temporary tables [0].

The unit tests in SemanticScribunto rely on Scribunto_LuaEngineTestBase (needed because of the Lua setup etc.) which itself relies on MediaWikiTestCase and is responsible for creating table clones as TEMPORARY TABLES by default.

So, the trick is to run the test suite with option use-normal-tables to make sure that the table clones are "real" tables.

The integration tests aren't an issue because here we use SMW's infrastructure which doesn't rely on MediaWikiTestCase at all.

Thanks for the info. I was however unable to find any "use-normal-tables" option in connection with MySQL. Not sure how I could fix this.

See #73.

Ah ok. Couldn't have done this myself admittedly.
