Log in to beta labs:
No navigation arrows exist in FF or Chrome
Special:Preferences shows no tabs
No links to VE exists even when Preferences are set
In regular editor, no controls appear
A number of pages e.g. user page show error Uncaught ReferenceError: mw is not defined load.php:1
Version: unspecified
Severity: critical
This also breaks Wikilove on beta.
In about 24 hours I will be giving a training session at WMF for 50 people about browser test automation that I had intended to do with Wikilove on beta labs.
While I could move the demo to mw.o instead, that would be less than ideal.
exception 'MWException' with message 'ResourceLoaderFileModule::readScriptFiles: script file not found: "/usr/local/apache/common-local/php-master/er/extensions/MwEmbedSupport/MwEmbedModules/MediaWikiSupport/MediaWikiSupport.loader.js"' in /data/project/apache/common-local/php-master/includes/resourceloader/ResourceLoaderFileModule.php:574
In the exception.log I also got a bunch of:
2013-06-26 22:39:51 deployment-jobrunner08 aawiki: [ff75b05a] [no req] Exception from line 32 of /data/project/apache/common-local/php-master/extensions/MwEmbedSupport/MwEmbedResourceManager.php: MwEmbedResourceManager::register not given readable path: extensions/TimedMediaHandler/MwEmbedModules/EmbedPlayer
It seems the issue is caused by https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/69479/ "Register resources with absolute path" which is intended to fix bug 45918 "MwEmbedSupport doesn't work with non standard layouts"

AFT, VisualEditor are now working when passing ?debug=true to the URL (which bypass resourceloader cache).
I have no idea how to clear the resource loader cache though :(
Ah it seems the cached load.php got cleared finally. I got AFT and VisualEdit working properly now :-]
