VisualEditor: "Error: Unknown error" when creating page on test2wiki
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: sumanah

Description:
close-up of error message and greyed button

  1. Try to use the VE to create a page at https://test2.wikipedia.org (while logged in, if that makes a difference).
  1. Click "Save page" button.

The "Save page" button greys out and "Error: Unknown error" shows up to its left. The user assumes that the page has not been saved. But it has been created, e.g., https://test2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Stanley_Robinson .

By the way, if the user reacts to the error by clicking Review changes and then getting back to Save, everything works fine.

I think this was due to a bug in the save dialog that we fixed last month; closing. If it re-occurs, please re-open this bug so we can fix this issue too.
