ConfirmAccount: Multiple emails per form submission (token expiry failing?) in 1.19
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

http://wiki.mozilla.org/ just set up ConfirmAccount, and it works great, but sometimes the are are multiple identical emails about an account request. We speculate that it is the result of a token not being expired.


Version: REL1_19-branch

Hi please use Mediawiki 1.23 or 1.24 please. REL1_19 branch hasn't received any fixes for this problem. and may have already been fixed in later versions of mediawiki.

Aklapper renamed this task from ConfirmAccount: Multiple emails per form submission (token expiry failing?) to ConfirmAccount: Multiple emails per form submission (token expiry failing?) in 1.19.Apr 24 2015, 9:41 PM

I think this is resolved since Mozilla are using mediawiki 1.23.9.

Well, maybe for Mozilla, but maybe not for other users of the REL1_19 branch.

MediaWiki support for 1.19 has been discontinued please upgrade to MediaWiki 1.25.

No. Users can upgrade to any supported version (e.g. LTS version 1.23), and not only 1.25.

@Paladox: What was exactly resolved in this task via a code change?

Hi this https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/206513/ I had a patch waiting for Mediawiki 1.19 but the deadline for the release passed so someone abandoned my patch.

@Paladox: That does not answer my question. Please explain what was resolved, instead of explaining what was not resolved.

Well it fixes confirmEmailToken which causes the email to show multiple times in Mozilla firefox.
