Inaccessible function via __call(): getContentObject

[l8gr...@gmail.com]

Hi,
I'm trying to install and test the Widgets extension with the following versions: 

Product	Version
MediaWiki	1.26.2
PHP	5.3.3 (apache2handler)
MySQL	5.1.73

This is on a RHEL 6.6 system, and it's running as a Virtual site in it's own directory.  I've followed the instructions, but every time I try to use a Widget, like the AssocTest one in the example, it bombs out with and error like the subject line says.  I see some vague mentions that this Widget isn't compatible with the VisualEditor plugin, which we have version 0.1.0 installed on here.  The exact error is:

Fatal error: Inaccessible function via __call(): getContentObject in /var/www/mediawiki/includes/page/Article.php on line 2051

Does anyone have a pointer to what I need to do to A) debug this better and B) fix the issue?  Or do I just have a maze of incompatible Extensions installed which is causing this issue?

I have checked to make the compiled_templates/ directory is world writeable, but it's fairly obvious that we're not even making it that far. 

Thanks,
John

I believe we are having this issue: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T155088

I'm also experiencing this issue, trying to use the Iframe widget with this setup:

MediaWiki 1.23.15

PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.21 (apache2handler)

MySQL 5.5.54-0ubuntu0.14.04.1

My error is:

PHP Fatal error:  Inaccessible function via __call(): getContentObject in .../includes/Article.php on line 2026

I did what that thread on phabricator recommended:

git checkout tags/1.2.1

Checked out the 1.2.1 tag of the Widgets repository and now it works -
error was caused because I was using the latest Widgets code which
requires MediaWiki 1.28 or something.
