Hi! .. Could someone help decide if the work around is for a known issue with
the extension: Auth-Remoteuser [0] is valid for MW-1.30
I'm running an Enterprise MW 1.30 on RHEL7 with CA Policy Agent on Apache as
the enterprise access control mechanism and I'm having the exact problem that
has been described here [1] as the "First Save Bug"
However, that issue is from the mid-2000's and I'm not having any luck
contacting the original posters about the workaround solution they described as:
Try adding:
```
if( !isset( $_COOKIE[session_name()] ) ) { User::SetupSession(); }
```
in front of the $wg->isLoggedIn() and see if that helps.
(presumably in the mediawiki file "User.php")
I'm eager to solve this issue I'm having [2] and think this might be a
solution, but I could use some expert insight.
Thanks and Happy Friday!
