Description

Scenario is as follows:

Sign-up from the main page, but don't provide example translations
Sign-up is rejected by an admin. The message says that one can try again.

Trying to sign-up again with the same name fails:

exception.ERROR: [ca0b0084973670940bba3fdf] /w/api.php   Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError from line 1586 of /srv/mediawiki/tags/2019-06-10_15:00:00/includes/libs/rdbms/database/Database.php:
  A database query error has occurred. Did you forget to run your application's database schema updater after upgrading?
  Query: INSERT  INTO `bw_actor` (actor_user,actor_name) VALUES ('12345','Foobar')
  Function: User::updateActorId
  Error: 1062 Duplicate entry 'Foobar' for key 'actor_name' (127.0.0.1:3306)

This is likely because the sandbox does not clean the actor table, which has been added recently.

In addition to fixing this bug, a process should be documented (possibly also scripted) how to clean up existing problematic entries.

[mediawiki/extensions/Translate@master] Add code to delete user from the actor table

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/518704

gerritbot added a project: Patch-For-Review.Jun 24 2019, 12:43 PM

Implemented a fix for this. In addition removed some compatibility code added for pre MW 1.31. Fixed an issue were we were not updating the # of users under the site_stats.

Added a script - removeOrphanedActors.php to be run when we want to remove orphaned actors.

Test cases

These test cases were run with the TwnMainPage extension installed.

Please find the test case below,

TC #1 - Reject a sandbox translator and register with the same username

Create a user with a username
As an admin, reject the user via the Manage Translator Sandbox page
Try registering the user with the same name again

Expected behavior

The user should be able to register without seeing any errors.

TC #2 - Should be able to approve previously rejected user

Run steps under TC 1.

Then,

As an admin, approve the user via the Manage Translator Sandbox page

Expected behavior

The user should be approved, and should be able to translate properly.

Moving to in-review as the patch has been merged. Please wait before starting QA as the MLEB instance has yet to be setup.

abi_ removed a subtask: T227637: MLEB instance requires createaccount rights for all users for TwnMainPage extension.

Tested this on the MLEB instance. This is working fine.

Registered as a user with the username - Test
Logged in as an admin from another browser.
As admin user, opened the Translate Sandbox ( Special Pages > Manage translator sandbox)
As admin user, rejected the newly registered user.
Went back to the previous window and logged out from the Test account
Tried to register again with username - Test.

Was able to successfully register with the same username again.

FYI, We have the Manage translator sandbox to manually review new users and their translations, before approving them as a regular user on Translatewiki.net
