Description

List of steps to reproduce (step by step, including full links if applicable):
Update Wikimedia according to the manual update page from 1.31 to 1.35. (make new directory with tarball, copy over localsettings, adjust permissions.
Run web update.
Edit existing entry.

What happens?:
I receive :

Error contacting the Parsoid/RESTBase server (HTTP 500)

What should have happened instead?:
I should be able to edit existing entries. The visual editor works fine for new entries.

Software version (if not a Wikimedia wiki), browser information, screenshots, other information, etc:
I am using wikimedia 1.35 via safari, though I've also tried chrome and Firefox.

It is important to note that new entries work fine, it is only editing existing entries. The wiki is available at https://wiki.aelisus.com

After reviewing the logs I realized that the tarball didn't make a tmp directory. I did this and it fixed the issue.
