Bug #: 31156
Summary: Maxlag errors returning 200 OK, not 503 as documented
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.17.0
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: API
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
The documentation for maxlag states that any errors should be returned with a
503 HTTP response code:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Maxlag_parameter
However, on the version of MW running on the English Wikipedia (1.17wmf1), the
error comes back as 200 OK instead:
