Okay, so I'm new to working MediaWiki and I'm trying to get a private wiki that is currently only accessible from my network going with Visual Editor, and I keep getting this error. I've checked LocalSettings and Config.yaml and both seem to be configured right (LocalSettings is pointing to Parsoid and Parsoid is pointing to the MWAPI page), but it seems Parsoid isn't working (Even though the service reports as up when I do service parsoid status. Connecting on port 8142 brings up a Connection Refused error.

Versions:

OS: Turnkey Linux MediaWiki

MediaWiki1.31.1

PHP7.0.33-0+deb9u5 (apache2handler)

MariaDB10.1.37-MariaDB-0+deb9u1

ICU57.1

Probably a firewall, SELinux or something of that nature blocking connections to parsoid

Does anyone have a solution for this?
