CheckUser causes a foreign key constraint failure on PostgreSQL when creating a new user
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

After installing the CheckUser extension on MediaWiki 1.33.1 and a PostgreSQL database, it is not possible to create a new user due to the following error. Obviously, there can't be a page with page_id = 0, so why is cuc_page_id being set to 0? It should be NULL if it is unknown/non-existent...

This is a very similar or even the same case as T149973.

Great, we should just test it with MySQL and here we go...
