Description

Save error

I have seen a number of tests failing where saving a change in the MF VE interface results only in a message "Error, edit not saved".

Here is one recent example: https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/view/BrowserTests/job/browsertests-MobileFrontend-en.m.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org-linux-firefox-sauce/101/testReport/(root)/Wikitext%20Editor%20(Makes%20actual%20saves)/Redirects/

There is no sign of this transaction in fatal.log, and I have not encountered it in a manual operation to check with developer tools.

Possibly related is an entry in dberror.log that may or may not correspond the failed edits:

Wed Jul 23 18:33:07 UTC 2014 deployment-mediawiki02 enwiki WikiPage::doEditContent: Transaction already in progress (from DatabaseBase::begin), performing implicit commit!
Wed Jul 23 18:53:37 UTC 2014 deployment-mediawiki02 enwiki WikiPage::doEditContent: Transaction already in progress (from DatabaseBase::begin), performing implicit commit!

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

Happening consistently in this test, regardless of browser: https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/job/browsertests-MobileFrontend-en.m.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org-linux-chrome-sauce/89/testReport/junit/(root)/Wikitext%20Editor%20(Makes%20actual%20saves)/Redirects/

and a similar failure uploading an image from the same build https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/job/browsertests-MobileFrontend-en.m.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org-linux-chrome-sauce/89/testReport/junit/(root)/Special_Uploads%20uploads/Upload_image_file/

Oh, and the dberror.log seems to be unrelated, sorry about that.

Seems likely this is HHVM related, adding Ori and Bryan

Per http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/qa/2014-July/001800.html sounds like this is likely related to the replag issues on betalabs; Chris mentioned he'll be checking back on this after a few days to see if this is actually resolved now.

I believe this is fixed with the change to allow longer replag.
