I have a page on 9738 words and 73074 characters.
VE loads to 100% (pretty quickly) and stops there and nothing happens.
When I trimmed it down to around 50k characters it worked.
Sounds like there is a limitation somewhere that restricts this?
Any ideas?
Problem identified: It was a thumbnail that VisualEditor cannot parse. Why is that?
Hi @Blazyb. Is this on a private wiki? Is the image present on the local wiki, or pulled from somewhere else?
Yes, this is a private wiki. The image is present on the local wiki yes, it is uploaded through the "Upload file" page. And checking the images folder I can see the files there.
Hey Blazyb did you found a solution?
My VE is loading as well but stops at 100%.. But only in Pages with Images
I have discovered something. Our Wiki is in french. If i put this in my LocalSettings.php, it work : $wgLanguageCode = "en";
I have not find a solution to use it in french.
Maalab, can you please tell me more about your config? Also, what version are you using for VisualEditor, Parsoid, and MediaWiki?
I've named you in the bug report at Phab:T155447. You can provide more information on this page or directly in the Phabricator task.
Thanks Whatamidoing for your reply. I will reply to both place so people can follow this case.
Our wiki is run on Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS server. Parsoid version is 0.6.1, Mediawiki version is 1.27.1 LTS and VisualEditor version is 0.1.0.
This is a private Wiki, but i have change it to a public Wiki and the problem is still there.
We have some extensions, but i will not list them (except if you need it), because when i disable them all, this does not solve the problem.
I don't think the problem is related to parsoid, because, when i troubleshoot parsoid and show the page in problem (http://servername:8142/localhost/v3/page/html/Test/), everithing seems to work fine and there is no error un parsoid log.
The only way i get VisualEditor to work with a page that have an image aligment, is when i put the Wiki in english. Our Wiki is in french.
When i inspect the code with Chrome Debugger, i get this error : Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'constructor' of null at Object.oo.cloneObject.
I have also report this bug at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T123471.
Let me know if i can test something to help troubleshoot.
@Maalab: how do you change public wiki to private wiki? I can only think of two ways --- going through installation process all over again or changing tons of permission variables one-by-one? Even there, I did not find any complete/exhaustive lists of permission variables that need to be set to flip a private wiki to public wiki and vice-versa.
Maybe i am wrong about what is a private wiki, but for me, a private wiki is a wiki that require authentication to see pages. What we do to make a private wiki is remove permission to read ans edit page to all user and give those permission to know user :
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createpage'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createtalk'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['writeapi'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['edit'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['createpage'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['createtalk'] = true;
If i remove those line in my LocalSettings file, it is a public wiki and anyone can read or edit pages.
But like i said, maybe i am wrong about what is a private wiki.
