I just tested this and could not reproduce the issue.

Krenair, Trying on Firefox? Happens after you open VE for the second time after you save your edit.
I am not getting the revID mismatch error, but when I open the editor, it says I am editing an old version of the document

Have checked it in FF 37, yep.

I'm going to declare it a caching issue for now.

Ryasmeen reopened this on May 11th without adding a comment.
@Ryasmeen: I assume that means this problem still exists?

@Catrope: Are you still working on this (as you are set as assignee)?

Is the priority realistic here? Asking as this has "Unbreak now" priority.

I don't think this happens any more? But I'm not sure.

@Ryasmeen: I assume that means this problem still exists? Please clarify as this task has "Unbreak now" priority. Also see the previous comment by Catrope.

I dont know if its for the same underlying reason but I am getting this error still in Betalabs while loading VisualEditor.

I set it as "Unbreak Now" because it was hampering the further testing unless I am able to load the VE .

I've been getting this over the past couple of days too. However, lowering it to high priority since as far as I can tell, it's not impacting production at all.

nshahquinn-wmf lowered the priority of this task from Unbreak Now! to High.Jun 16 2015, 2:14 AM

I've tried this many times on beta.wmflabs.org with Chrome 45 and FF 38, cannot reproduce.

Jdforrester-WMF claimed this task.

Let's hope this is fixed.

Was able to reproduce it again on en.wiki today
