This seems to be happening again.

@Shanmugamp7: I've enabled that setting on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rc but cannot reproduce the problem on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges

Try with number of edits to show by default as 500 and days as 30, 100 edits is working fine for me too

The revert was reverted and a fix was attempted in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/238713/ and now merged but the exception is still thrown. https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&limit=500

Nope, this patch doesn't solve the problem, still I am getting the error

@Shanmugamp7: Where? Did you locally test this patch on your own wiki? (asking as "Patch merged in the MediaWiki code repository" is not "Code deployed on servers of a website, like a Wikimedia one"). Or did this patch have a SWAT deployment on Wikimedia servers that I'm not aware of?

@Aklapper : ah, sorry, i didn't notice that difference (merged vs deployed). we can close this task but shouldn't be the prod issues like this deployed immediately?.
