I switched off Ajax in LocalSetting.php by using $wgUseAjax = false. Still some pages included the script ajax.js. The reason for this was the file cache which has not been invalidated by updating LocalSettings.php. The cause for the problem is the following: index.php is trying the file cache in line 85: if( $cache->isFileCacheGood( /* Assume up to date */ ) ) { isFileCacheGood in HTMLFileCache.php reacts this way: if( !$timestamp ) return true; // should be invalidated on change Therefore the cached page is used and $wgCacheEpoch is ignored. The correct code for isFileCacheGood is: if( !$this->isFileCached() ) return false; $cachetime = $this->fileCacheTime(); if( !$timestamp && ( $wgCacheEpoch <= $cachetime) ) return true; // should be invalidated on change $good = ...
Created attachment 6678 [details] Patch fixing the issue The if( !$timestamp ) return true; shortcut is intended to avoid having to call filemtime() (on fileCacheTime). Since we need to check the file time to follow $wgCacheEpoch, and the filemtime() value will be cached since we did a file_exists() on the previous line, skip it.
Sorry for asking another time. Your patch is exactly the same code as I find in V 1.15.0, so I don't see how it would fix the problem.
Fixed in r57971.
