Caught exception of type Error when saving changes in VisualEditor

1
Summary by Winel10

I’ve changed the language for my wiki form German to English. Then the error message was more precisely “Exception caught: Call to undefined function gzinflate()”.

The solution is to install php7-zlib module on the server.

VisualEditor runs fine and I can edit any text as desired. But when I want to save my changes I got the following message: "Something went wrong" "[1d70eae393b2ae72f0869514] Caught exception of type Error". Now I just can click the "Dismiss"-button an return to the save changes dialogue. The number in the square brackets changes each time I try to save.

My configuration is:

MediaWiki 1.32.0 used with self signed certificate over https

OpenSUSE Linux 42.3

PHP 7.0.7 (apache2handler)

MariaDB 10.0.30-MariaDB

Do you have any idea what might cause the error?
