Operating System Ubuntu 20.04
Software installed: Apache, MariaDB
- Install mediawiki 1.39.5
- Install Grabbers
- run grabText.php on remote wiki
Per remote wiki's hostile policy, unable to disclose remote wiki's url until migrated wiki formally announces
What happens?:
ERROR: CannotCreateActorException from line 622 of ActorStore.php: Cannot create an actor for a user with no name: user_id=0 user_name="3403151"
What should have happened instead?:
This should not have occurred and all text revisions should have copied correctly without error.
Compliance to erase accounts under GDPR is possibly causing unintended corruption.
Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia): 1.39.5
