Any link to reproduce the problem? Which browser(s) does this happen with?

It’s a private wiki, but VE should work even with readonly access (at least it worked before) by entering ?veaction=edit at the end of the URL. I tried firefox and Safari for Mac.

This worked and now it doesn’t: http://wiki.mc128k.info/index.php?title=Test&veaction=edit

I also noticed that if I click edit from the read tab it does nothing, if I click edit from the edit source tab it changes the URL, but nothing again.

Thanks.

I tried installing a clean mediawiki with only VE with a local sqlite database. Same issue, not even picked my config file, made one new.

Adding more infos: debugging shows many 404 errors, and the lib/ve/ folder is empty. Something went very wrong with some git merge I think.

Is there anything relevant in the Apache error log (could be folder/file access permissions)? Or in the debug log (see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:How_to_debug#Setting_up_a_debug_log_file )?

When you download the VE extension, the lib folder is empty. (well, only an empty subfolder). This is the cause.

The empty folder is a submodule. Run 'git submodule update --init' to download it, and 'git submodule update' to update it after running git pull.
