           Summary: opening e-mail address confirmation link produces
                    database error
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.14-svn
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Database
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected]


I registered an account at en.wikipedia.org with the username stepheneb.

I received an e-mail address confirmation and when I clicked on the link the
site reported a Database error:

  Database error
  A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the
software. The last attempted database query was:
  (SQL query hidden)
  from within function "User::addToDatabase". MySQL returned error "1062:
Duplicate entry 'Stepheneb' for key 2 (10.0.0.235)".

I have been able to login using the new account.

I don't think I had created this account previously but is is possible I had
several years ago.

There was no indication until clicking the confirm link that this could be a
duplicate account.
