if a link is coming from a template, it does not show up when editing the page in visual editor. testcase : https://www.zabbix.org/wiki/Docs/visual_editor_test in the editing mode link text is not displayed. (if creating an account to test, real name is mandatory) used template : https://www.zabbix.org/wiki/Template:ZBXNEXT node.js log contains : starting parsing of localhost:Docs/visual_editor_test <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>301 Moved Permanently</title> </head><body> <h1>Moved Permanently</h1> <p>The document has moved <a href="https://www.zabbix.org/mw/api.php">here</a>.</p> <hr> <address>Apache/2.2.22 (Linux/SUSE) Server at localhost Port 80</address> </body></html> error in localhost:Docs/visual_editor_test: Template Expansion failure for "{{ZBX|1}}": 301 Stack: PreprocessorRequest._handleJSON (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.ApiRequest.js:415:12) PreprocessorRequest.ApiRequest._handleBody (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.ApiRequest.js:189:8) PreprocessorRequest.ApiRequest._requestCB (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.ApiRequest.js:166:8) Request.self.callback (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/node_modules/request/request.js:129:22) Request.EventEmitter.emit (events.js:98:17) Request.<anonymous> (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/node_modules/request/request.js:873:14) Request.EventEmitter.emit (events.js:117:20) IncomingMessage.<anonymous> (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/node_modules/request/request.js:824:12) completed parsing of localhost:Docs/visual_editor_test in 3316 ms
this seems to be parsoid from git 45a32f444a7eed48e691b31931091a02185e06b6
We should be able to reproduce this on a local wiki with the contents of that template. * Template source is: https://www.zabbix.org/mw/index.php5?title=Template:ZBX&action=edit ... * Test snippet: {{ZBX|1}} We know of some regressions from that commit. It is is not yet deployed onto production, but yes, master has failures. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/123908/ may fix it (not yet merged).
The problem here is that interwiki link is redirecting from http to https. ex. parsoidConfig.setInterwiki('zap', 'http://www.zabbix.org/mw/api.php'); should be parsoidConfig.setInterwiki('zap', 'https://www.zabbix.org/mw/api.php'); did you recently switch to https only? Template expansion is trying to query the api but getting a 301 redirect in response ... which produces the error instead of following it.
if the question about https was for me, there is a redirect for http -> https, but visual editor was installed recently and this problem was there from the very beginning. given that i'm accessing the page over https, shouldn't it work automatically ? the only non-https connection i can see is the wgVisualEditorParsoidURL, which goes to localhost http - but i'd prefer it to stay that way (and i'm not sure whether that would help anyway :) )
What do you have set in your parsoid configuration? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid/Setup#Configuration
that was set to http://localhost/mw/api.php if i set it to https, in the browser i get : Error loading data from server: parsoidserver-http-request-error: MWHttpRequest error. Would you like to retry? and in node.js error : TypeError: Cannot call method 'substr' of undefined at ApiRequest._requestCB (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/lib/mediawiki.ApiRequest.js:151:37) at self.callback (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/node_modules/request/request.js:129:22) at Request.EventEmitter.emit (events.js:95:17) at ClientRequest.self.clientErrorHandler (/home/root-rich/files/parsoid/node_modules/request/request.js:239:10) at ClientRequest.EventEmitter.emit (events.js:95:17) at CleartextStream.socketErrorListener (http.js:1547:9) at CleartextStream.EventEmitter.emit (events.js:95:17) at SecurePair.<anonymous> (tls.js:1389:19) at SecurePair.EventEmitter.emit (events.js:92:17) at SecurePair.maybeInitFinished (tls.js:982:10) worker 808 died (8), restarting. (i have set it back to http for now)
right, you're getting a 404 for https://localhost try setting that to https://www.zabbix.org/mw/api.php or, alternatively, when you visit http://localhost/mw/api.php, does that try to redirect you? change your http server configurations to allow non-https connections on localhost
oh, neat - disabling https redirect for localhost seems to have helped, huge thanks. maybe a bit more friendly error messages can be returned in case of 301/404 errors ?
yeah, I'm working on that now based on these reports. we've recently changed the way we log data and there're still some bugs. glad to hear it's working for you.
