Caused by bug in curl (fixed in libcurl 7.56.1) in Windows binaries of PHP (any version). We have to wait for future versions.

Last version of VisualEditor for MW 1.30 truncates data. When I create or edit a page which contains long code (can be just Lorem ipsum), which is more than ~10kB (size is changing around this size), it truncates data after this size. Instead of the subsequent data, it prints the following code (I present only part because of this editor limitation) followed by the first 10kB of code from page (Lorem ipsum text), and again and again until it reaches the original size of code.

... <meta charset="utf-8" /> <meta property="mw:pageNamespace" content="0" /> <meta property="mw:pageId" content="1" /> <meta property="dc:modified" content="2017-12-19T11:43:54.000Z" /> <meta property="mw:revisionSHA1" content="52037c2060186c3b757682d49c79c681de3a92b6" /> <meta property="isMainPage" content="true" /> <meta property="mw:html:version" content="1.5.0" /> <title>Main_Page</title><base href="https://domain.com/wiki/company/index.php?title=" />[//domai ...

It looks to me like some timeout problem. I use MW 1.30 on Windows Server with IIS 7.5 and PHP 7.0.

Command line "node bin/server.js" returns these messages when this issue occurs:

Hi Czech,

Did you find any solution to this problem?

Trying to find the problem with others in task ticket https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T183356 . If you experience the same problem, join the discussion please.

We found the problem. It's caused by bug in curl in Windows binaries of PHP (any version). We have to wait for future versions of PHP.

Thanks for your help!

I have build the curl-7.57.0 with PHP Version 7.0.27 and that is working fine.

Please find the URL to create a build of php_cul.dll.
