It would help if this was a bit more specific, but this is probably related to the call by reference/hook issue discussed here: ​http://www.mwusers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13460

The problem is the php version (>= 5.3.0), just modify in file : FCKeditor.body.php

public function onCustomEditor(&$article, &$user) {

global $wgRequest, $mediaWiki;

....

by

public function onCustomEditor($article, $user) {

global $wgRequest, $mediaWiki;

....

Could you be more specific about the changes ? According to the link above, it does seem to only be a work-around.

Also, if this a a real fix, why is it not commited in the sources then ?

I'm repoening the ticket because people keep getting this issue with the latest source (see: ​http://bugs.debian.org/579822).

MediaWiki and FCKEditor are no longer supported. Closing the ticked as invalid.
