Why alecexposed.org is complaining about No available desktop renderer.?

[benoit74]

Zimfarm recipe: https://farm.openzim.org/recipes/alec_exposed

The last task (ran with dev right now, see close to a 1.14) fails with No available desktop renderer..

I don't get why, because all prerequisites are ok:

• Mediawiki version is 1.30 (see https://www.alecexposed.org/wiki/Special:Version)
• ActionParse API seems to be working

Working: https://www.alecexposed.org/w/api.php?action=parse&format=json&prop=text|modules|jsconfigvars|headhtml&formatversion=2&page=ALEC_Bills

Working with warning Unrecognized parameter: parsoid: https://www.alecexposed.org/w/api.php?action=parse&format=json&prop=text|modules|jsconfigvars|headhtml&formatversion=2&page=ALEC_Bills&parsoid=1

I added some logging and I'm getting the following:

====== Error checking API availability: https://www.alecexposed.org/api/rest_v1/page/html/ALEC_Exposed
====== Error checking API availability: https://www.alecexposed.org/api/rest_v1/page/mobile-html/ALEC_Exposed
====== Error checking API availability: https://www.alecexposed.org/w/rest.php/v1/page/ALEC_Exposed/html

In fact all of those URLs are 404s.

So I'm not sure if the site is misconfigured and the endpoints are not enabled, or if mwoffliner is misconfigured and we're not looking for them in the right places.

As far as "ActionParse API", I don't see any references to that in the mwoffliner code and I'm not sure it's an API we work with.

Regarding "ActionParse API", I was refering to the name listed here.

REST API is indeed not available on this website, so it is normal these calls are returning 404.

But why none of the logs you get are referring to something like https://www.alecexposed.org/w/api.php?action=parse&format=json&...? Is there another place in the codebase to check?
