OK, I have traced the issue, and I'm embarrassed to say, it's in a custom extension.
(I removed the extension yesterday and the error kept happening, so I figured the extension was harmless... but I'll bet I was fooled by browser caching.) Apologies if my incorrect information wasted anyone's time. The real issue is that a custom callback for the hook "SpecialPages_initList" is invoking RequestContext::getMain()->getUser()->isLoggedIn(). Apparently that doesn't work. I'll take a guess that SpecialPages_initList runs too early for this check to succeed? My goal is to remove some special pages for anonymous users but permit logged-in users to see them. Is there a better way to check for a logged-in user at this hook point? Or a better way to remove special pages for anonymous users? Thank you very much for any advice, DanB ________________________________ From: Daniel Barrett Sent: Monday, December 19, 2016 8:21 PM To: Wikimedia developers Subject: Re: [Wikitech-l] VisualEditor in 1.28 - fails after upgrade from 1.27 > Ok, that's a start. Can you get the rest of the stack trace for the > exception so we can figure out how that's getting called? Sure. How do I get a full stack dump when the error appears only in the Chrome developer console? BadMethodCallException from line 845 of <...>/w/includes/session/SessionManager.php: Sessions are disabled for this entry point I've already enabled $wgShowExceptionDetails (which caused slightly more detail to appear, but no stack dump) and set every other debugging flag in sight on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:How_to_debug#PHP_errors in LocalSettings.php and in index.php. The only output I get is the above line in the Chrome developer console. The error does not appear in the associated Apache error log file.
