Summary: UploadFromUrl error with synchronous downloads Product: MediaWiki Version: 1.16-svn Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Normal Component: Uploading AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: b-jor...@northwestern.edu Created an attachment (id=6386) --> (https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/attachment.cgi?id=6386) Patch against r53755 to fix the bugs UploadFromUrl::initialize never sets dl_mode if asynchronous mode is false. And then Http::doDownload doesn't bother to verify that it got any expected value for dl_mode (or, for that matter, whether ASYNC_DOWNLOAD was requested when it's not available). Which results in a null being returned (by falling off the end of the function) rather than the expected error object. I've attached a patch that fixes both of these: it makes UploadFromUrl's dl_mode be set to SYNC_DOWNLOAD unless specifically set otherwise and makes Http::doDownload try synchronous download unless async is requested and available (instead of only when specifically requested). An alternate possibility for the latter would be to return a Status::newFatal at the end of the function, if you'd rather error out than try the sync download anyway. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
