Description hans84 2011-08-11 08:38:33 UTC

After upgrading to 1.17, everytime a user clicks on the watch/unwatch tab, it leads to a page called "Undefined".

Sounds like you have some conflicting JS defined, what extensions are you running? do you run any custom js in [[Mediawiki:Common.js]] or [[Mediawiki:<Skinname>.js]]? (eg: [[Mediawiki:Monobook.js]])

Yeah, just installed 1.17.  WORKSFORME. Check JS as p858snake suggests.

I think it is a issue with the API. I have deactivated the API for normal user and IPs. For admins the watch/unwatch tab is working.

Although the script should indeed not attempt to use the API if it's disabled, my I ask why you have the API disabled for non-admins ?

Absolutely useless, there are plenty of (spam)bots that post via the usual web interface. You must understand that write API doesn't allow to do anything that's not possible to do manually, i.e. it doesn't allow to bypass captchas or exceed edit rate limits.
