[mediawiki/core@master] resourceloader: Simplify $wgResourceLoaderMaxage config
I'm somehow sure that this change is the cause behind the breakup of some MediaWikis during their upgrade. This happens if the LocalSettings.php had the legacy syntax with server and client stuff.
Precisely, visiting and old wiki after a fresh upgrade, you will get a 500 Internal Server Error with this exception or something similar:
/load.php?lang=it&modules=skins.vector.styles.legacy%2Cresponsive&only=styles&skin=vector Error from line 1073 of includes/resourceloader/ResourceLoader.php: Unsupported operand types
#0 includes/resourceloader/ResourceLoader.php(891): ResourceLoader->tryRespondFromFileCache(ResourceFileCache, ResourceLoaderContext, string)
#1 load.php(51): ResourceLoader->respond(ResourceLoaderContext)
#2 load.php(38): wfLoadMain()
#3 {main}Now. I've updated the documentation here to simplify troubleshooting:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgResourceLoaderMaxage
But that is a good place to fix that issue but not to prevent it. What do you suggest to prevent it? Maybe this thing is already reported somewhere with very bold and scary warnings. Maybe not.
For additional context I encountered this issue when examining T268515: Upgrade wiki.wikimedia.it from 1.26.4 to latest LTS.
