Description Roan Kattouw 2014-03-26 21:25:36 UTC
I don't know what it should be, but the following is not very clear:

Error loading data from server: error. Would you like to retry?

Maybe:

| The editor's contact with the server failed (5xx). Would you like to retry?

?

Comment 4 James Forrester 2014-09-02 19:00:23 UTC
With the above patch, the former message:

    Error loading data from server: parsoidserver-http-bad-status:
    500. Would you like to retry?

… turns into:

    Error loading data from server: parsoidserver-http-bad-status:
    500: Page Fetch failure for "BADURL": Error: getaddrinfo
    ENOTFOUND. Would you like to retry?

Which is not ideal, but at least describes things a bit. Marking this as FIXED.
