We have recently upgraded to MW1.13.2. Since upgrading from v1.12 we have been having frequent problems with saving pages. I have been unable to identify any patten as to when the failure to save can occur. A page preview will work but on "action=submit" you may get a "The page cannot be displayed" error in IE, a blank page in firefox and safari. It has gotten so bad on one site I reverted it back to v1.12.
I have found some workarounds but they are not 100% effective. I hope these give a clue as to where the error is occurring. The first thing to try when you get this error is to use the back button and check the "This is a minor edit" before clicking the save button. If that does not work then have the sysop change the protection state from "(default)" to "Block unregistered users" or visa versa depending on current state.
Any help/direction you can give will be greatly appriciated by our MW community.
Thanks,
Paul
