Description

If you set $wgMaxCredits=-1; (in DefaultSettings.php), the wiki crashes

Database error
From Phase3
A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the
software. The last attempted database query was:

SELECT rev_user, rev_user_text, user_real_name, MAX(rev_timestamp) as

timestamp FROM revision LEFT JOIN user ON rev_user = user_id WHERE rev_page =
AND old_user != 0 GROUP BY rev_user, rev_user_text, user_real_name ORDER BY
timestamp DESC

from within function "Article::getContributors". MySQL returned error "1064: You
have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your
MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'AND old_user != 0 GROUP
BY rev_user, rev_user_text, user_rea".

See provisionally http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508

forgot to say this, the error is present on:

existing installation (after having changed the variable $wgMaxCredits to -1)
fresh installation, fresh database (with the variable $wgMaxCredits = -1)
