Which MediaWiki version are you using? Is it a new install or an update
of a previous one? From mediawiki.org or is it modified by a linux distro?

Much appreciated.

When installed, the wiki should had run the sql statement:
 CREATE INDEX user_time ON logging (log_user, log_timestamp);

to create the user_time index. Even worse, a reinstall should have
recreated it if missing. You could try running it manually, but I'm
concerned about what other things could be missing.
