## UPO means: this is also a user preference option

Had the same thing yesterday (with many other issues). This seems to have gone after enabling the Parameter: $wgCacheDirectory.

# $wgCacheDirectory = "$IP/cache";

Then appears the following error reports:

But when I change the php.ini back to utf-8, the German special characters wouldn't be showed.

PHP warnings should be hidden on production. try google:php+hide+warnings+reporting

What MediaWiki version? This looks like an exception during handling another exception (quite unfortunate at least)

1.31.1
