Topic on Talk:Parsoid

If you are running Mediawiki on a shared hosting probably the cUrl it´s blocked for external connections on specific ports (8000,8142), ask your hosting provider to unlock the port (tcp).

I have just updated our mediawiki from 1.24 to 1.26.2 and everything appears to be fine except that when editing a page using VisualEditor it gives the above error, the parsoid cmd window also doesnt show anything at all when trying to edit a page.

http://localhost:8000/ - Works fine and all test pages work, i can see parsoid in the cmd window parsing pages.

http://vm-wiki:8000/localhost/Main_Page - Works and i can see parsoid parsing the page.

I can only assume i have a VE issue but i cannot seem to find where, anyone have any ideas? - Its a Windows install with php and mysql - any help appreciated.

Is your VE configured correctly? That may have changed between those versions, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor#Linking_with_Parsoid

unfortunately i have already been through the settings and updated the localsettings.php file, i have also matched the localsetting.js file for parsoid, tried a combination of the two and a combination of localhost and the server name, nothing seems to work but i do agree this points to a VE issue talking to parsoid because i can go to http://localhost:8000, tests check out fine and i can see the parsoid workers processing pages.

Are you using "domain" or "prefix" in your LocalSettings.php? Does Parsoid's localsettings.js file have a "domain" and/or "prefix" that matches?

A quick google seems to indicate that "curl error: 28" is a PHP configuration error of some sort. See, for example, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6678487/getting-error-code-28-with-curl
