Somewhere between 19:00 and 2:00 UTC, the Vietnamese Wikipedia (vi.wikipedia.org) switched from using the localized interface (using the MediaWiki namespace) to using the default English interface. vi:Special:Allmessages only shows English messages now. :(
I've forced the message cache to clear ($wgMessageCache->clear() in eval.php) and it seems to be set to rights again. Not sure what causes this exactly. :(
Could you please do the same in spanish wikipedia? We are having the same problem (I think).
i've made a couple of checkins related to this in MessageCache 1.58 and ObjectCache 1.23. persistant connections are now disabled because of a bad interaction between memcached-client and the object cache: <innocence> there seems to be an interaction issue between the messagecache and the memcache client when a persintan socket fails <innocence> the client deletes the socket, then return an error, and the messagecache sees the error and sets "error" in the key, but on another server.. because the old host was marked as dead i also replaced the error key into $wgMemcKey.'-status' instead of the key directly, because of the following observation: > > MemCache: sock i:0; got eswiki:messages => Array resource(104) of type (persistent stream) > > resource(104) of type (persistent stream) > > resource(104) of type (persistent stream) > > MemCache: sock i:0; got eswiki:messages => loading resource(104) of type (persistent stream) > > MemCache: sock i:0; got eswiki:messages => Array resource(104) of type (persistent stream) > > MemCache: sock i:0; got eswiki:messages => error resource(104) of type (persistent stream) > > MemCache: sock i:0; got eswiki:messages => error resource(104) of type (persistent stream) i.e. the message are correctly loaded, then replaced by an error key. i don't know why this occurs, but this workaround may suffice. also moving bug to mediawiki.

This is also happening on sh and lb since 1.5, as the messages below show. ==SH Wikipedia system messages== Hallo Angela. Can you tell me why sometimes sysetm messages are translated, but somestames they are not? I translated most important messages here but now interface is not on Serbocroatian. Can you tell me why, and what I shall do? Thank you, --Pokrajac 22:00, 5 Jul 2005 (UTC) ==lb-wiki: language swaps of user interface== Dear Angela, I contact you in your quality as a developer re a problem that we experience at the lb-wiki since the first tests with MediaWiki 1.5. started: Whatever language preference one indicates for the user interface, the user interface randomly swaps from that preferred language to English and back. Except the fact that of course the lb-users do not feel very comfortable with these random language swaps, some of our links not situated in the main namespace do no longer work and all our bots are currently down as they can not handle random window title changes. Can you please help to get this bug fixed or have the present request forwarded to another competent developer? Thanks. --Otets 6 July 2005 20:39 (UTC)

Is this still an issue?
I haven't seen this anywhere since, so I think we can close the bug now.
