Description

We've had a few reports of problems on the log-out step of the WP-MW Single Sign On after WP 3.0/BP upgrades. Can we look into this and respond on the Comment thread? Are these problems reproducible, or are they due to user errors?

Examples of reports:

Assigning this to Zach since CIC developed the extensions, but Boone, please feel free to jump in if you can.

More specific reporting on the error encountered from the comment thread :

Turned on error reporting via Comment 72 by Mark, and get this error:

Fatal error: Cannot access protected property WebRequest::$data in /Users/Frankly/Sites/dip.youthstudies.eu/wiki/extensions/LogoutLoginWP/LogoutLoginWP.php on line 29

Line 29 is this:

if($redirectTo = $wgRequest->data['redirect_to'])

I think I found the solution via other MediaWiki extensions who had similar problems, apparently because of a change in MW 1.16 through which a public field became protected (source).

Changing the code in line 29 to this solved all my problems and all works beautifully now:

if($redirectTo = $wgRequest->getVal('redirect_to')) {

Nicely done, Andreas.

When I first saw that snippet of code I wondered if the value assignment was intentional or if it was supposed to be an equality check. I assume it's the former, and that this is a case of my own desire for brief and clever code run amok. Readability would be improved by replacing line 29 with:

$redirectTo = $wgRequest->getVal('redirect_to');
if($redirectTo) {

I or someone else at CIC will do that this week.

Lucas - has this been fixed in the version of the extension that's downloadable from the website?

Bump. Lucas, would you mind making the change to the zip downloadable on the dev blog http://dev.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2009/05/21/new-mediawiki-extension-wpmusinglesignon/ ? If you don't have write access to that blog, post the zip as an attachment here and I'll upload it. Thanks!
