Hi All!
I recently also had to set up a private wiki and ran into this issue, but this solution did not work 100% for me. I once had to enter "::1" here in a VirtualBox-Machine, and on an actual Server I had to enter the actual IP-address (not 127.0.0.1). I found it in the log of mediawiki ($wgDebugLogFile).
Without having run into this myself personally, and not having much experience with IPv6, I'd speculate that you need to add an extra test case for both the IPv4 and IPv6 notions of "localhost" in order for the example code to comprehensively cover all cases. --Ernstkm (talk) 11:31, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
Once I enable Windows Authentication, Visual Editor is broken again, even with this fix. I have been searching for a couple days trying to resolve this.
It will be hard for someone to help unless you link directly to what "Windows Authentication" means in this specific case, or provide (sanitized) snippets of your configuration files. --Ernstkm (talk) 11:29, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
Hello,
i want to allow parsoid to access my private wiki and this seems to be the solution, but there is no indication which file i need to edit in your text. Could you please add this information? Thanks
The instruction adds read and edit permission for requests coming from 127.0.0.1. The read permission is obvious, but why edit? VisualEditor seems to work even without this permission, am I missing something? A testcase that breaks without the edit permission would be nice to see.
