           Summary: WMF servers missing part of cl_timestamp index, live
                    hack breaks list=categorymembers&cmsort=sortkey
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.14-svn
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: API
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

        Depends on: 16012


The WMF servers have KEY `cl_timestamp` (`cl_to`,`cl_timestamp`) whereas
tables.sql has CREATE INDEX /*i*/cl_sortkey ON /*_*/categorylinks
(cl_to,cl_sortkey,cl_from) . The cl_from field in the index is needed to make
list=categorymembers&cmsort=sortkey non-lethal to the database servers, but
because it's not there on the WMF servers, WMF uses a live hack that breaks
paging for cmsort=sortkey completely.

The index should be updated on all WMF servers and the live hack removed.
