Summary: edit api conflict on deleted and restored files. Product: MediaWiki Version: 1.17-svn Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Normal Component: API AssignedTo: roan.katt...@gmail.com ReportedBy: hart...@videolan.org CC: bryan.tongm...@gmail.com, s...@reedyboy.net, vasi...@gmail.com, soxre...@gmail.com I experienced an issue trying to use edit api on this file: http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Concert.jpg This happened after I had deleted and then restored the page, see also the log of that here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Concert.jpg&action=delete . Whatever I tried, I couldn't make an edit to that page then. Every time I got: {"error":{"code":"pagedeleted","info":"The page has been deleted since you fetched its timestamp"}} I tried purging the page and my browser, tried waiting a while (2 hours) and switching browsers, the problem would not go away. Perhaps the delete and restore timestamps were too close, confusing editconflict detection, or possibly, the api is looking at the last time of deletion and last time of edit, not realising that an undeletion of the page is an event that can occur after those two times. I finally solved it by making an edit to the page with the normal interface. After that, everything went like clock work. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
