Closed, ResolvedPublic2 Estimated Story PointsPRODUCTION ERROR

Description

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

What happens?:

  • A JaveScript error pop up:
    grafik.png (1×420 px, 87 KB)

Console on Firefox shows:

I am not sure, if the error "Uncaught Error: Permission denied to access property "apply"" is related.

What should have happened instead?:

No error should be shown :-)

Software version (on Special:Version page; skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):

Happens since the deployment train rolled out 1.46.0-wmf.7. Therefore probably a regession

Someone should schedule this for a scap deploy, as there is no train the next two weeks.
