In MW 1.9.3 I was getting
PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function getText() on a non-object
in the showHit method in SpecialSearch.php... but so far only for one
of the many searches I've tried
http://ecoliwiki.net/colipedia/index.php/Special:Search?
search=polymerase&go=Go (fixed now, see below, but was giving white
screen of death)
The code around the call that gives the error is:
$link = $sk->makeKnownLinkObj( $t );
$revision = Revision::newFromTitle( $t );
$text = $revision->getText();
and $t is checked with is_null earlier in the method. rebuildall.php
didn't help. I modified the code to:
$link = $sk->makeKnownLinkObj( $t );
$revision = Revision::newFromTitle( $t );
$text = "";
if (is_object($revision)) $text = $revision->getText();
which revealed a page result with a db error... which I deleted. But
I'm wondering if
a) the codebase should include an is_object test on $revision (is
this fixed in later versions?).
b) I should change the above to make the default text some existing
error message
