Hi,

I've installed media wiki from git, using the REL1_20 branch.

My setup is as follows (debian versions on second line in brackets, running debian wheezy):

Web server:
nginx version: nginx/1.2.1
 (1.5.2-4)
PHP 5.4.4-9 (fpm-fcgi) (built: Oct 26 2012 13:10:40)
 (1.5.2-4)

Database server:
stunnel 4.53 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu platform
 (1.5.2-4)
pgbouncer version 1.5.2 (compiled by <cbe@benz> at 2012-11-02 10:29:46)
 (1.5.2-4)
postgresql 9.1.6
 (9.1+134wheezy2)

The error I got in in my error log was:
PHP message: PHP Notice:  Undefined property: DatabasePostgres::$mTrxDoneWrites in /var/www/wiki.example.com/includes/db/Database.php on line 512

The error in the pgbouncer logs was:
2012-11-22 10:07:54.054 17899 LOG C-0xafec38: wiki_example_com/wiki.example.com@unix:6432 closing because: client close request (age=0)
2012-11-22 10:07:54.054 17899 LOG S-0xae16c0: wiki_example_com/wiki.example.com@unix:5432 closing because: unclean server (age=0)

What I was trying to do, for example, was send a confirmation email to confirm the email, which tries to write the confirmation key to the database. This was not correctly written to the database, and so the link did not work.

When I add this patch (not final product! just to get it working) it works fine.

        }
 
        /**

I think it could just be because of my funky setup with pgbouncer as well, but there is an undefined property which should probably get tracked down. When I get some free time I will write up a patch for it.

If you need more details like config etc, let me know.

Cheers,

Hugh
