==== Finally enabled VisualEditor successfully ==== | |||
The solution given here [[phabricator:T270376#7365202]] after the breakthrough discovery [[phabricator:T270376#7364419]] by Func needed to be tweaked also with <code>AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode</code> to stop the [[mw:VisualEditor]] REST 404 errors exhibiting when trying to edit subpages. Adding <code>AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode</code> to the Apache 2.4 config inside of the <VirtualHost>-directive seems to yield a completely functioning VisualEditor setup. | |||
This advice I found in [[mw:Extension:VisualEditor#Allowing VisualEditor on page titles containing slashes]] after it was kindly pointed out by an irc-goer in #mediawiki. So the documentation has been improved lately. | |||
So two configuration changes to Apache2 were needed to successfully enable VisualEditor: | |||
<pre> | |||
AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode | |||
</pre> | |||
for VE to work with URL's with slashes in them | |||
<pre> | |||
RewriteEngine On | |||
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-f | |||
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d | |||
RewriteRule ^(?:(?!rest.php/).)*$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/w/index.php [L] | |||
</pre> | |||
for REST traffic to work as intended and naturally also short URLs working (MediaWiki is residing in w/ and wiki URL is /wiki/) and no more REST 404 errors at all. | |||

==== Enabled VisualEditor ==== | |||
I finally enabled [[mw:VisualEditor]] on all wikis. I'm still getting REST 404 errors with VisualEditor, but I have verified that those exhibit '''only when trying to edit a subpage'''. When trying to edit a subpage with VE, it fails with REST 404 when loading the VE, but if trying to create a subpage with VE it fails only after the final "save page". | |||
This is an matter of importance, because mobile users have been unable to edit any pages due to an issue with [[mw:Extension:ConfirmEdit]] and [[mw:Extension:MobileFrontend]] not quite playing catch with each other. | |||
I was alerted to the issue of no captcha by a user of the Consumerium development wiki on [[ciumd:User:Jukeboksi/Log/2021#Sunday 2021-02-07]]. | |||
I filed a ticket on it [[ciumd:MediaWiki/Tickets/Phabricator T274807 - No CAPTCHA from ConfirmEdit served for users that use MobileFrontend]]. | |||
I did try to enable VisualEditor on 2021-05-13 but run into 404 problems regarding the REST-traffic, as have many other people. See catalogue [[phabricator:T266971|phabricator:T266971 - ''"Error contacting the Parsoid/RESTBase server" (HTTP 404/403) and similar errors (catalog)'']]. The weird thing about these 404's was that they did not start to exhibit immediately after enabling VisualEditor, nor did they exhibit consistently. | |||
It seems that the '''404 errors''' with the REST-communication used by VisualEditor '''are due to old style of apache2 rewrite engine settings'''. | |||
For the problem of 404 errors in REST-communication I took the solution given here [[phabricator:T270376#7365202]] after the breakthrough discovery [[phabricator:T270376#7364419]] by [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/Func/ Func]. | |||
This Apache configuration (snippet) in the VirtualHost directive in <code>/etc/apache2/sites-available/000-website.tld</code> worked for wikis where short URLs in the format of <code>/wiki/</code> and the MediaWiki residing in <code>/w/</code> and document root is one directory up from /w/ | |||
<pre> | |||
RewriteEngine On | |||
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-f | |||
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d | |||
RewriteRule ^(?:(?!rest.php/).)*$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/w/index.php [L] | |||
</pre> | |||
'''Thank yous''' to '''Func''' for solving this for us and [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/Kghbln/ '''Kghbln'''] for asking the question in [[phabricator:T270376]] and thanks to Bob, who brought to my attention the problem that mobile users were unable to edit wiki. | |||
