TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating '_i18n.textEdited')

[HernanLencinas]

Description

Some users are reporting that in the Gitea console, they are being shown the following error message:

JavaScript error: TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating '_i18n.textEdited') (https://git.cloudvalley.telecom.com.ar/assets/js/index.js?v=1.19.3 @ 54:663).
Open browser console to see more details.

Screenshot attached.

This happens randomly and from what we've observed, it mainly occurs with users using the Safari browser. We have checked the server and Gitea logs but haven't found any relevant error messages.

Users experiencing this issue also report that their user session is being closed, preventing them from working normally.

Do you mean that, if a user sees the error, then they refresh page, then the refreshed page doesn't have the error?

[wxiaoguang]

I think I know the problem now.

Will propose a fix later (at most 1 day).

When users encounter that error message, it closes their session, and they have to log in again. Then, while browsing the repositories, it may or may not appear. It seems to be quite random.

When the same user tries it with Chrome, it works without any issues.

Oh .... if the user gets kicked-out, then that's another problem.

I think it has been fixed by #24330

The related issue is #24176 , there are more details.

The fix is only in 1.20 (you can try nightly), but it's not easy to backport hmm, not difficult.

According to my test, disabling Safari's "prevent cross-site tracking" could help.

I can try to send a partial backport to 1.19

-> Fix safari cookie session bug #24772

I am not 100% sure but it looks like that's the problem (the user's session is closed after some time)

On our side, we can try upgrading to version 1.20 over the weekend, and once it's done, test again to see if the issue is solved.

Same problem here.

Same problem here.

It could be another problem IMO. This issue about "user randomly gets logged out".
