Bug ID: 58357
Summary: misleading error message on edit header conflict
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Flow
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
I was trying to edit the header of Talk:Flow for the first time. But someone
else had snuck in and created the header while I was editing. The result of
[Preview] or [Save header] is an errorbox
"An error occurred.
The error message received was: Previous revision identifier is missing."
the failing API call is:
{"warnings":{"main":{"*":"Unrecognized parameter:
'workflowId'"}},"flow":{"edit-header":{"result":"error","errors":{"header":{"prev_revision":"Previous
revision identifier is missing."}}}}}
(The message would be different if the header already existed and there was an
edit conflict.)
The workaround is to reload the page and then edit the page. The fix is edit
conflict handling.
