Matthew Flaschen <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] Severity|normal |major --- Comment #3 from Matthew Flaschen <[email protected]> --- A white screen of death on the login page is more than normal priority, even if it only happens when you're already logged in. (In reply to spage from comment #0) > As I recall, visiting Special:UserLogin while logged in on mediawiki.org a > week or so ago would just redirect me to the main page (not ideal but better > than an exception); This is the new expected behavior. Specifically, it redirects you to the returnto, and the main page is the default returnto if another one is not specified in the query string. (In reply to Andre Klapper from comment #1) > It is pretty confusing when you go to > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:UserLogin?useNew=1 (being already > logged in) and all you get is "[d1aecbd5] 2014-08-23 15:16:17: Fatal > exception of type MWException" on a white page. Just to avoid confusion, useNew was temporary and removed quite a while ago (except for some outdated qqq that crept back in; I just uploaded a patch to fix). It has no effect and is unrelated to this bug. (In reply to Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) from comment #2) > I think this was caused by Idd9325374cb5dc13c4c057f45f88a33bdff523a9.

If S is right that it redirected to the main page before in WMF production ("As I recall...") that indicates the bad CentralAuth interaction is more recent. I personally can't confirm this, so I don't remember if I tested this behavior in production. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
