Description

New behaviour (see comment below from Thu, Sep 24, 10:26 AM PDT).


Old problem follows:

When I'm logged in as https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Thesquirrelsareattackingagain (test account), on mediawiki.org,

both of which result in:
Exception encountered, of type "Exception"

The webconsole (even with ?debug=1) just lists: GET https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:S9ioxqczzxrpzjan [HTTP/1.1 200 OK 307ms]

I can't reproduce this with other accounts, nor with the testaccount on other wikis or on any other pages on mediawiki.org.
I tried a purge, and also resetting my userpreferences, but neither helped.


(possibly related to T73325: Special:Notifications throws Exception, found via searching for that error message)

So...what is set in your preferences for timezone?

[ Lowering priority because I don't see any other instances in the exception log ]

So...what is set in your preferences for timezone?

Defaults, I think:

Random idea: Non-autoconfirmed user?

Nope, the account is autoconfirmed.


However! New behaviour. The original description is no longer reproducible. I can now view the topic just fine. And I can view Special:Notifications just fine.
But the "Messages" flyout is showing a new error: Could not retrieve notifications. Please try again. (Error internal_api_error_Exception)

(The current Special:Notifications just in case that helps)

No longer reproducible.
