Hi
I maintain the server running the wiki at

Yay transition network! :-)
and 3 month ago it was upgraded to
MediaWiki 1.22.x and the VisualEditor was installed from source and that
was quite straight forward, details here:

Yesterday I upgraded to MediaWiki 1.23.0 and switched to using the
Debian repo for parsoid as per:
-
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid/Setup#Ubuntu_.2F_Debian
And since then I have been unable to get the VisualEditor working, when
you click on 'Edit' nothing happens, looking at the HTTP requests there
is a GET to load.php and a 304 in response but nothing actually happens
in the web browser, I have tried with Firefox 30 and the Debian Wheezy
Chromium.
Did you upgrade the visual editor as well?
If you did, then the version of VE that works with MW 1.23.0 requires
you to install the Parsoid extension as well.
See
https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension:VisualEditor&oldiā¦
This is to load some css and styling resources that VE needs.
These styles have since been moved to core
(
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/130770/) and the parsoid extension
is no longer necessary, but the styles are not available in MW 1.23.0.
The other thought I had (since I made this mistake recently and was
baffled for a while) was if you installed VE from git, then make sure
that after pulling the latest version of VE, you also install VE
submodules via git submodule update --init.
