Is this happening for all pages on the wiki, or just for this “TestPage”?
It happens on all pages.
I created the TestPage to rule out problems with complex WikiText. The "TestPage" is quite simple: only 35 lines, 83 words and 1493 characters according to the "wc" tool. Just a bit of unformatted text and a bulleted list created with the asterisk. No sections, no headlines, no tables, no text styles, nothing special.
Best regards

What could cause this behavior and how should I configure my system to prevent the deadlocks? If this is a Bug in either MediWiki or the VisualEditor or Parsoid, how to further investigate and fix it? Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org (mailto:Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org) https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Holding a database lock while a Parsoid query is made seems like a really bad idea. That seems like it could be a big in MediaWiki core. However, I'm running an almost identical setup on my machine (Debian/unstable rather than wheezy) as are most Parsoid developers (Ubuntu instead of Debian) and I've never seen this.
Honestly, I was surprised running into this problem and I am still not sure where the culprit is. MediaWiki is used at so many places, it is hard to believe in a locking bug, although possible.
Perhaps I might suggest looking closely at the code which takes database locks, and why it is doing so? Perhaps more details on your db configuration would also be helpful, if you're not using Debian and MediaWiki defaults.
Here come more details:
Everything runs on a single server, single core.
System runs in 32 bit mode (although CPU is capable of 64 bit mode)
mySQL table type is InnoDB
no unusual mysql server options are in effect, as far as I remember
PHP is not using memcache or any other caching module
the Wiki is mostly idle, approx 30 users and highest ever concurrent
login count was 3 users.
- All tests so far done with a copy where at most one user was active
at anytime (myself)
- my LocalSettings.php might be a bit non-standard. Here some
settings that may or may not be relevant (in order of appearance in LocalSettings.php):
- $wgDBprefix = "wiki_";
- $wgDBTableOptions = "ENGINE=InnoDB, DEFAULT CHARSET=binary";
- $wgDBmysql5 = false;
- $wgMainCacheType = CACHE_NONE;
- $wgMemCachedServers = array();
- $wgUseInstantCommons = false;
- $wgDefaultSkin = "vector";
- $wgResourceLoaderMaxQueryLength = -1;
- $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;
- $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;
- $wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false;
- require_once ( 'extensions/BibTex/bibtex.php' );
- require_once ( 'extensions/MathJax/MathJax.php' );
- $wgParserCacheType = CACHE_NONE;
- $wgTexvc = '/extensions/Math/math/texvc';
- $wgUseTeX = true;
- require_once('extensions/WikiEditor/WikiEditor.php');
- require_once "$IP/extensions/Parsoid/Parsoid.php";
- require_once "$IP/extensions/VisualEditor/VisualEditor.php";
- $wgDefaultUserOptions['visualeditor-enable'] = 1;
- $wgVisualEditorParsoidURL = 'http://<my.server.name (http://my.server.name)%3E:8000';
- $wgVisualEditorParsoidPrefix = 'testwiki';
- $wgSessionsInObjectCache = true;
- $wgVisualEditorParsoidForwardCookies = true;
- require_once('extensions/UserMerge/UserMerge.php');
- require_once("$IP/extensions/LastUserLogin/LastUserLogin.php");
- Also in LocalSettings.php, I have enabled debugging using:
- $wgDebugLogFile = "</some/path/to>/mediawiki-debug-{$wgDBname}.log";
- $wgShowSQLErrors = true;
- $wgShowDBErrorBacktrace = true;
- $wgDebugTimestamps = true;
- $wgDebugDumpSql = true;
Are there other / better options to get a comprehensive trace of what happens when?
- Please find below an excerpt from the debug log - - - -
Note: I tweaked wfDebugTimer() to have absolute timestamps and to have client address/port in order to relate debug log lines to tcpdump logs from capturing the on-wire conversation between MediaWiki and Parsoid service.
Sorry for the overlong lines.
If I should upload the log somewhere, please tell me where.
