Intention: I clicked on "Einstellungen" (= user settings) in MediaWiki. Steps to Reproduce: Click on "Einstellungen" (= user settings) in MediaWiki. Actual Results: After clicking on "Einstellungen" (= user settings) in MediaWiki I get the following error message: [54a24a72] /community/index.php/Spezial:Einstellungen Exception from line 134 of /path_to_wwwroot/community/includes/Preferences.php: Global default '6' is invalid for field math (Where "path_to_wwwroot" is a replacement for apache's wwwroot-directory path.) As far as I have figured out the system tries to get settings from the data base which are invalid. It is a fresh installation of MediaWiki without any content yet. Therefor I would expect no such error at all. I can clearly trace this to the Math extension: If I deactivate it in LocalSettings.php everything works fine. This bug affects ALL users. Even new ones created. Expected Results: I would expect to see the "Einstellungen" page. But it does not show the page. Instead I get the error message as described. Reproducible: Always The full stack trace: ---------------------------------------------------------------- [20b5b220] /community/index.php/Spezial:Einstellungen Exception from line 134 of /srv/www/wwwroot_ssl/community/includes/Preferences.php: Global default '6' is invalid for field math Backtrace: #0 /path_to_wwwroot/community/includes/Preferences.php(1233): Preferences::getPreferences(User, RequestContext) #1 /path_to_wwwroot/community/includes/specials/SpecialPreferences.php(58): Preferences::getFormObject(User, RequestContext) #2 /path_to_wwwroot/community/includes/specialpage/SpecialPage.php(379): SpecialPreferences->execute(NULL) #3 /path_to_wwwroot/community/includes/specialpage/SpecialPageFactory.php(503): SpecialPage->run(NULL) #4 /path_to_wwwroot/community/includes/Wiki.php(285): SpecialPageFactory::executePath(Title, RequestContext) #5 /path_to_wwwroot/community/includes/Wiki.php(588): MediaWiki->performRequest() #6 /path_to_wwwroot/community/includes/Wiki.php(447): MediaWiki->main() #7 /path_to_wwwroot/community/index.php(46): MediaWiki->run() #8 {main} ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please note that the Wiki is installed in a subdirectory to wwwroot called "community". But this should have any effect according to the problem.
FYI: I am using the most recent stable version of MediaWiki and the Math extension.
There is a change in the way how the Math extension is configured. 6 stands for define( 'MW_MATH_MATHJAX', 6 ); /// @deprecated The new recommended setting for this application is: $wgDefaultUserOptions['mathJax'] = true; $wgDefaultUserOptions['math'] = MW_MATH_PNG;
