What is the problem?

On deployment-deploy01.eqiad.wmflabs, running sql enwiki I see:

This happens with every request to test wikis, see https://logstash.wikimedia.org/goto/b49f81b5ed5d9d5a4ab5f248fa1a9175.

The time corresponds to:

09:38 hashar@deploy1002: Finished scap: testwikis wikis to 1.37.0-wmf.23 (duration: 70m 39s)

Seems to be enough to be a blocker for 1.37.0-wmf.23.

Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2021-09-14T14:10:55Z] <legoktm@deploy1002> Synchronized wmf-config/CommonSettings.php: Avoid warning about undefined $wgFileBlacklist (T290640) (duration: 01m 32s)

That comes from https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/core/+/680806 which renamed some global variables:

BeforeAfter
$wgFileBlacklist$wgProhibitedFileExtensions
$wgMimeTypeBlacklist$wgMimeTypeExclusions
$wgEnableUserEmailBlacklist$wgEnableUserEmailMuteList
$wgShortPagesNamespaceBlacklist$wgShortPagesNamespaceExclusions

The renaming is part of T277987 I have poked that task.

Yeah, sorry, forgot to write the transition config patch.

Kunal added a back compatibility fix in operations/mediawiki-config which we can remove once 1.37.0-wmf.23 is fully deployed :] I am keeping the task so that we remember to do the cleanup.

[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Set wgProhibitedFileExtensions not wgFileBlacklist

I'm getting similar errors for $wgMimeTypeBlacklist when I reindex certain wikis:

Notice: Undefined variable: wgMimeTypeBlacklist in /srv/mediawiki/wmf-config/CommonSettings.php on line 737
Warning: array_diff(): Argument #1 is not an array in /srv/mediawiki/wmf-config/CommonSettings.php on line 738

Will all the renamed variabled mentioned above by @hashar be updated?

Reedy assigned this task to Jdforrester-WMF.

Should be all done now.

I created dupe patches that James had already created, so hence the abandoned. But I did do the other needed renames

^ Should have only been on "private wikis", but is fixed too

Indeed, it was on some arbcom wikis. Thanks!
