Description Joachim Wagner 2024-07-17 15:11:59 UTC
After entering username and password (and hitting the login button) on https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Wiki via the login item in the top bar, the Wiki page shows

[f02a153da64f6d38ed333acf] 2024-07-17 14:46:04: Fatal exception of type "MWException"

with page/tab title: Internal error - openSUSE Wiki

Revisiting https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Wiki and https://en.opensuse.org/Main_Page shows the same error (with new hexadecimal code and time stamp).

When then visiting bugzilla to enter this bug I had to enter my login details again. If the sites share the same authentication cookies, this should indicate that the login on the wiki was not successfully. I suspect that the login is shared as https://events.opensuse.org/ shows me as logged in now and I don't recall ever using this page. (I found the link in one of the "possible duplicates" listed in this form.)

Let me guess - you changed your mail address recently? (If so - this is a known bug.)

I can fix your wiki account. Please tell me
- your username
- your mail address you use in that account (if it's different from the one 
  visible in bugzilla)

Regarding the different logins: We use a common account, but the login works in different ways on some systems (including separate login cookies). The wikis and events.o.o share the same login system, but bugilla uses a different one - which is why you needed to login separately.

Thanks. The username is jowagner and the email should be the same as here.
Comment 3 Christian Boltz 2024-07-19 19:00:50 UTC
I updated your wiki account to the mail address from bugzilla - login should work again.

If you still have problems, please tell me.

BTW: OBS still has your old mail address. You might want to login there to get it updated.
