Description Peter 2020-02-04 19:21:52 UTC 
From Jira:
The MediaWiki of the OpenOffice project displays some blank pages at various places, making some information inaccessible.

The information to show on the page is there. One can view it when on the page to edit the content.

However, it will not show on the MediaWiki itself, it shows only a blank page.

Effected pages are:

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Spreadsheets/Spreadsheet_Documents

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/API/Tutorials/PDF_export

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Scripting/Writing_Macros

 

It seems MediaWiki acknowledges the fact and has a possible solution:

-----------

Please investigate and fix it

Note is some plugin and a regregression from the Media Wiki update. But I am still looking for more Information.

Andrea explained the issue here:
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/590859c822cd95b5742ff81b8320c29ed37bf8c30a381c1f81f62a2e%40%3Cdev.openoffice.apache.org%3E

For the fix a ssh access is needed with some PHP knowledge. No downtime needed.
Andrea will look into it.

Thanks.

The listed webpages are no longer blank.

Therefore I see this issue as solved.

This issue was in fact solved with updating the extension IDL Tags for MediaWiki.
That extension was broken by deprecated PHP command.

Was fixed and all works again.
