I'm trying to get the MediaWiki visual editor extension working on a shared host.
I have completed the installation as per the instructions given (here). When trying to access the heroku app, I had got an application error. As per discussion here I edited the config.yaml file, and following this the parsoid test performed as expected.
I got back to the Mediawiki site and completed the remaining steps. Then on clicking edit, I got a 404 error. As per the suggestion here, I changed the uri parameters in the two parsoid files (localsettings.js and config.yaml) from the pattern http://mediawikisitename.com/api.php to http://mediawikisitename.com.
Following the above change the toolbar and the greyed editing area with the progress bar is being displayed. The progress bar hangs after about 60%-100% and then gives a http 0 error.
Any help in troubleshooting this error is welcome!
The localsettings.js is as follows
/*
* This old / unusual way to configure Parsoid.
*
* You'll probably want to start in config.example.yaml
* and only end up here if you need some sort of backwards compatibility
* or to support non-static configuration.
*/
'use strict';
exports.setup = function(parsoidConfig) {
// Do something dynamic with `parsoidConfig` like,
parsoidConfig.setMwApi({
uri: 'mysite',
});
};
The config.yaml is as follows.
# This is a sample configuration file
# Copy this file to config.yaml and edit that file to fit your needs.
# Also see:
# - `npm start -- -h` for more information about passing config files via
# the commandline.
# - lib/config/ParsoidConfig.js for all the properties that you can configure
# here. Not all properties are documented here.
