Impact

Thousands of hits for this error when promoting the 1.42.0-wmf.23 train to group1 today.

I'm rolling back the train.

Note that though I rolled 1.42.0-wmf.23 to group1, the errors are being reported against .22

And rolling back the train did not fix the problem. :-(

Correction. The error rate did drop off eventually after the rollback process reached more servers.

This might be a transient; I don't think reverting the Linter extension patch is the solution, I think you need to turn off the lint error in Parsoid. Parsoid is reporting the lint to Linter, and Linter (transiently?) doesn't recognize the category name being given.

Rather than revert that patch, it could be backported to .22

I think both Scott and Arlo are right ... we just need to confirm that the names in Parsoid and linter are the same and there is no typo in the names that we overlooked.

[mediawiki/extensions/Linter@wmf/1.42.0-wmf.22] Add inline background color

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/1012781

On group 0 (mediawiki.org) https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:LintErrors/night-mode-unaware-background-color shows lint errors which means this is working right .. and so the errors may have been transient. @Arlolra's suggestion is right.

Parsoid servers get 700 reqs / sec ... so, even if a fraction of those have these new lint error, and if there is a delay in how code is updated / services restarted, you would get these errors. So, backporting to wmf.22 should avoid this.

We've agreed to backport to .22 - thank you so much everybody for all of your help!

Backport complete and looks good, so this ought to unblock the train.

Given that the group1 train rolled forward without further errors of this sort, I'm going to say this is closed.
