(RESOLVED) Internet Explorer does not load Vector skin CSS - MediaWiki 1.17b1

Good day

Deployed on the intranet MW does not loads the CSS of Vector skin at the opening through IE. In all other browsers: Chrome, Opera, Firefox - everything works well. Interestingly, if the debugger install IE UserAgent as Chrome, for example, everything will work fine. So far as I understand, the problem with the definition of what CSS is necessary to give any version of IE. I do not see any errors in the debugger of IE. Wikimedia sites will open in IE fine, but my wiki at the same time showing me the plain text. Other skins as Monobook work normal, the problem is with Vector skin only.

Thanks for your help.

(If it was an update) Did you run update.php afterwards ?

Are there are http errors that can you trace ? (ie. HTTP 500 Error, or HTTP 404 Error).

Can you try translatewiki:Main Page in your IE ?

I have same problem as IP194.84.143.153, other browsers look no problem, IE show plain text, I installed wiki1.17 directly (No updates), anyone can help?

Yes, just in case I ran update.php, but it was a new installation. All Wikimedia project websites are opened up by IE fine, your http://translatewiki.net also opens normally. In the IE Developer tools console I see now only:

SCRIPT5009: "addOnloadHook" is not defined
load.php?debug=false&lang=ru&modules=site&only=scripts&skin=vector, line 3, character 275

But this problem is known to me. Erroneous code is reserved for compatibility. In principle, I would suggest that the problem with this. But addOnloadHook called from MediaWiki:Common.js for Collapsible tables. The contents of Common.js I simply copied from English Wikipedia. I do not see any 404 or 500 error.

Are you running IE6 or a newer version?

I tried IE8 and IE9. I don't have older versions.

  • English Wikipedia runs a slightly newer version than 1.17b1. What works there is not guaranteed to work on your site. Aside from that Wikipedia runs in a wiki farm with other wikis and extensions which may complicate things
  • TranslateWiki runs the latest (experimental) version of MediaWiki's Subversion trunk (1.19-alpha). If the issue is not present there, then it is likely a moot point since if it's fixed there, it's a matter of time for it to end up in the stable release of 1.19 (or if possible, backported to 1.17 or 1.18).

Can you verify that the code you have is up to date with that of the English Wikipedia ?

Any fix for this yet? I just installed a new internal wiki (1.17b1) at work and I have the same error and would very much like e fix :)

Another thing, $wgVectorUseSimpleSearch doesn't seem to work in Chrome. Can anyone confirm this?

I have the same problem, all skins not working on IE. Anyone knows how to fix it?

This is a known issue. It will be fixed in the next beta release. See bugzilla:28840
