Invalid confirmation code. The code may have expired in email confirmation (Special:ConfirmEmail)

Description

Hi!

I'm having an issue when I tried to confirm the "first" email address of a new user. When I click or copy the entire url this message appear
"Confirmar dirección de correo electrónico
Código de confirmación incorrecto. El código debe haber expirado."

"Invalid confirmation code. The code may have expired in email confirmation"
I set the timezone in the server and the php, following this information https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:ConfirmAccount/archive_2#Invalid_confirmation_code._The_code_may_have_expired.

but the issue persist.
When I logged in with the same user and I send the email again "preferences>confirm email address", I received a new email and that new url works fine.

I've installed mediawiki 1.25 in a aws ec2 ami instance.
My php version is 5.6.10

thanks!

It looks like caused by Timestamp. Engineer from huiji.wiki found that
in file User.php line 3672,
comment this line: //'user_touched' => $dbw->timestamp($oldTouched)

could solve this problem, as a temporary fix.

How many databases are used? Just one master or is replication used?

Zoglun added a comment.Aug 3 2015, 9:41 PM

We (Moegirlpedia) use several different database. I am not sure how much huiji.wiki used.

We use 'zhmoegirl' 'jamoegirl' 'enmoegirl' for article, 'wikidata' for user tab share, and 'commonimage' for image share.

aaron added a comment.Aug 3 2015, 9:45 PM

But is it master/slave or just DB masters?

Backport to 1.25, I suppose (I don't see it in REL1_25)

Adding projects accordingly
