User "Bryan" posted a comment on MediaWiki.r87235. Full URL: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/87235#c16635 Commit summary:
Remove the session_write_close() from r72475 since it apparently causes bug 27891, total breakage of ChronologyProtector. WMF patch only for now, maybe Bryan will fix it properly. Comment: When using asynchronous upload by url, UploadFromUrlJob stores the result of the upload in the session, so that API clients can retrieve the status. This session is obviously not the same session as the request session, but that of the user who initiated the upload. It therefore calls wfSetupSession() with the session id of the uploader. This would all be unnecessary of course if jobs had a way to communicate their results back, but currently there is none. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
