"wikidiff2: command not found" errors
On an Ubuntu 14.10 server after manually updating from MW 1.19 to 1.23.8, all diff pages reported "No difference," even when a difference was clearly apparent. Diffs worked as expected under 1.19. Apache's logs threw `/bin/bash: wikidiff2: command not found` when loading the diff page. This error appears to be unrelated to the wikidiff2 extension, and setting $wgExternalDiffEngine in LocalSettings.php (which was not previously set) to wikidiff3 had no effect; instead, removing an installed Ubuntu package named `php-wikidiff2` from the server resolved the problem, and diffs worked as expected. A google search unearthed a wmflabs IRC log from 2013, which was the only resource I found when searching for this error message. Users spectie and marktraceur reported the resolution. --75.175.21.212 19:21, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
