Apache2 crash with this backtrace:

The server runs Ubuntu 18.04 and Mediawiki from https://launchpad.net/~legoktm/+archive/ubuntu/mediawiki-lts/

What can I do to solve this issue ?

I have uninstalled wikidiff2 with apt remove php-wikidiff2. It is now running well on the internal PHP engine.

I've also open a bug report to the wikidiff2 project : https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T240620

I would try different approaches, like:

  • Don't deploy applications like MediaWiki and other web-based applications from dpkg packages. Use their official packages instead. Usually, they'll make tarballs available. The benefit you get from this approach is that you won't get dependency issues, and you'll be able to run it on Nginx and PHP-FPM, for instance;

  • Use Docker and the MediaWiki Docker image.

Best regards.

  • 1. Tarballs is harder to maintain: How are you aware of updates ? With distribution packages, I'm perfectly able to use Nginx. 2. Docker looks like a big investment to me.

  • 1. I use CI/CD tools to keep everything up-to-date. Also, you could clone their git repository and just pull whenever there's a new version. But, since you're able to use Nginx, try using it with PHP-FPM. 2. Well, I'm giving possible solutions to your problem. Dec 12, 2019 at 21:08
