VisualEditor not connecting to Parsoid server in MediaWiki 1.35

423 Views Asked by At

I'm trying to set up a MediaWiki wiki in Docker. I am using the official MedaiWiki image here, version 1.35.1 . Once I get the wiki up and running, I run into this issue when attempting to run the VisualEditor.

I'm a little confused about why the Parsoid server is necessary to use the VisualEditor. It was my understanding that this was unnecessary as of version 1.35.1. Is this incorrect? Or am I configuring the MediaWiki wrong?
