Fatal exception of type "Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBUnexpectedError" when using Special:Upload to upload new version of file
Closed, DuplicatePublicBUG REPORT

Description

Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):

  • Access Wikimedia Commons (use link).
  • Go to any existing Wikimedia Commons file of type .ogg. For example, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales Testifies at a Senate Judiciary Committee Oversight Hearing.ogg.
  • Click "Upload a new version of this file". This should take you to Special:Upload page for that file.
  • Upload a new, edited version of the same file. This requires at least one change to the existing audio, as well as a brief summary of any changes made to complete the upload.
  • Once completed, click the "Upload file" button at the bottom of the page.

What happens?:

  • Redirected to Special:Upload page but instead saying [aef719d8-3ca5-4c66-8aea-5ce434273bc1] (date and time): Fatal exception of type "Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBUnexpectedError".

What should have happened instead?:

  • I should have been redirected to the original file page, with the new file version reflected in the "File history" section. The upload should be successful.

Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia): Skipped.

Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.): Brave Version 1.58.137 Chromium: 117.0.5938.153 (Official Build) (64-bit)
