Hi, I'm running a 1.17.0. In one Category I have 365+ Pages (one page using for each day in year): http://rhein-neckar-wiki.de/Kategorie:Bild_%28Hauptseite%29 Clicking "nächste 200" in the category-pager results in http://rhein-neckar-wiki.de/index.php?title=Kategorie:Bild_%28Hauptseite%29&pagefrom=705%0A5.+Juli%2FBild ("5. Juli/Bild") is the 201st item in this category. In NS=0 we don't use subpages, so "foo/Bild" is a plain article name. Paging doesn't work here. Regards Raphael
Seems to be a generic problem with category paging * http://rhein-neckar-wiki.de/Kategorie:CC-by-nc-sa_2.5 * http://rhein-neckar-wiki.de/Kategorie:Stadtwiki:Bilder_fehlen ...
Did it ever work? Was this upgraded from an older version of MediaWiki?
I'm pretty sure it worked in the past. And yes, this wiki is continously updated since end of 2005 (around 1.6)
I'd like to get confirmation that this is really a 1.17 bug before upping the priority.
Stadtwiki Karlsruhe (22k articles, 20k images) has some very large categories, see http://ka.stadtwiki.net/Spezial:Meistbenutzte_Kategorien, it is running 1.16.0. Stadtwiki Pforzheim-Enzkreis is running 1.16.5 and paging in large categories works here, e.g. http://www.pfenz.de/wiki/Kategorie:CC-by-nc-sa_2.5 I'm not sure when they will migrate to 1.17.x, but I'll take look on this topic after an upgrade.

FYI, you should at least get those upgraded to 1.16.5 for security updates. The category members sorting stuff looks like it's been done, as it *looks* ok on the API.. http://rhein-neckar-wiki.de/api.php?action=query&list=categorymembers&cmtitle=Kategorie:Bild%20(Hauptseite) <categorymembers cmcontinue="page|21390a50524f4a454b54452f484155505453454954454e42494c4445522f53455054454d424552|16710" /> And then http://rhein-neckar-wiki.de/api.php?action=query&list=categorymembers&cmtitle=Kategorie:Bild%20(Hauptseite)&cmcontinue=page|21390a50524f4a454b54452f484155505453454954454e42494c4445522f53455054454d424552|16710 We get continuation of months...
Adding Aryeh as CC since he helped do most of this collation work last year. Status update: I've been able to successfully run the update on a dataset that I was given to test. So it doesn't appear to be endemic to the 1.17 upgrade. Maybe it was an extension or something else that caused the problem.
Actually an extension caused this behaviour. I disabled # require_once($IP."/extensions/CategoryTree/CategoryTree.php" ); in our LocalSettings.php and then for example http://rhein-neckar-wiki.de/index.php?title=Kategorie:Chronik&pagefrom=1819 works as expected. So this behaviour may be influenced by (older?) Versions of CategoryTree and is not a general bug with mediawiki core. thank you Raphael
UPDATE: I just updated CategoryTree from CategoryTree-MW1.16-r62678.tar.gz to r85033.tar.gz">http://upload.wikimedia.org/ext-dist/CategoryTree-MW1.17-r85033.tar.gz and re-enabled this extension in LocalSettings.php. Everything seems fine now.
