Thread:Project:Support desk/Error contacting the Parsoid server (2)

Hi, I've been trying all night to get the VisualEditor to work, but no luck.

I'm running MediaWiki 1.22alpha on Ubuntu Precise. The parsoid is working ok at http://wikineering.org:8000/, the wiki too at http://wikineering.org/mediawiki/, the api too at http://wikineering.org/mediawiki/api.php

The relevant configuration variables in  set as such: $wgVisualEditorParsoidURL = 'http://localhost:8000'; $wgVisualEditorParsoidPrefix = 'localhost'; And in, I have: parsoidConfig.setInterwiki( 'localhost', 'http://localhost/mediawiki/api.php' );

When I click on the "Edit" button, the VisualEditor loads. But when I hit "Save", I get a little "Error contacting the Parsoid server" error message right below the textarea for the edit summary. I've also tried with "wikineering" and "wikineering.org" instead of "localhost", and every combination I could come up with, but no luck. I downloaded the Lynx browser and checked that http://localhost:8000 and http://localhost/mediawiki/api.php are working. They are.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
