Beginner question about UPLOAD dir

Hi gruppenhaus ,

I've only done php integration of CKFinder.

I've added this note after my original post:
Look at the bottom of:
http://docs.cksource.com/CKFinder_2.x/D ... ntegration

It has a section called "Specifying Destination Folder for Quick Uploads ".

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I believe that the "Upload" tab automatically looks for a folder named "images" in your base directory. You could try creating that folder and see if it fixes the problem. Make sure the folder name "images" is all lowercase.

Here's the page that explains how to integrate CKFinder with CKEditor for php.
http://docs.cksource.com/CKFinder_2.x/D ... ntegration

Setting the path is based on the URL being called, here are the default paths:
PHP
$ckeditor->config['filebrowserImageUploadUrl'] = '/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Images';

JAVASCRIPT
filebrowserImageUploadUrl : '/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Images',

Notice that both say type=Images. Here is the default configuration for the ResourceType "Images" . I copied it from the config.php file in the CKFinder directory:

$config['ResourceType'][] = Array(
'name' => 'Images',
'url' => $baseUrl . 'images',
'directory' => $baseDir . 'images',
'maxSize' => "16M",
'allowedExtensions' => 'bmp,gif,jpeg,jpg,png,avi,iso,mp3',
'deniedExtensions' => '');

It says 'directory' => $baseDir . 'images',

Hope this helps, if not maybe someone else will answer

Hi gruppenhaus,

You can try these suggestions and see if they help.

1) Uncomment the two error reporting lines in the config file and see if you get any useful information.
// error_reporting(E_ALL);
// ini_set('display_errors', 1);

2) Add this after your $baseDir setting, it could help if the path is incorrect somewhere:
if ( ! file_exists( $baseDir ) ) {
mkdir( $baseDir );
}

3) Reset the default directories and settings (ckfinder/userfiles).
$baseUrl = '/userfiles/'; OR '/ckfinder/userfiles/';
$baseDir = resolveUrl($baseUrl);

Check the folder permissions for the ckfinder directory and the userfiles directory.

Check your AccessControl settings (Set everything to "true"):
$config['AccessControl'][] = Array(
'role' => '*',
'resourceType' => '*',
'folder' => '/',

'folderView' => true,
'folderCreate' => true,
'folderRename' => true,
'folderDelete' => true,

'fileView' => true,
'fileUpload' => true,
'fileRename' => true,
'fileDelete' => true);

Change your ResourceType settings (just use $baseUrl and $baseDir, remove ( . 'images' )
$config['ResourceType'][] = Array(
'name' => 'Images',
'url' => $baseUrl,
'directory' => $baseDir,
'maxSize' => "16M",
'allowedExtensions' => 'bmp,gif,jpeg,jpg,png,avi,iso,mp3',
'deniedExtensions' => '');

Still use these settings for the EDITOR config srttings:
PHP
$ckeditor->config['filebrowserImageUploadUrl'] = '/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Images';

JAVASCRIPT
filebrowserImageUploadUrl : '/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Images',

4) Try working with a clean install and if that works, start to make changes one at a time.
You could add another complete install directory named ckeditorTest.

Hopefully something mentioned above will do the trick,
Joe

Hi Chris,

You're welcome, glad to hear that you're making progress.
