ColdFusion File Manager not viewing files

I'm using the ColdFusion connector in version 2.3b and for some reason I can no longer view the files on the server. Everything is set to the default values and I have the connector turned on in the config.cfm file, but still nothing happens.

Of course, it was working just fine in version 2.2. Anyone have any suggestions?

Many thanks,
Christian

And of course, you have set the _FileBrowserLanguage = 'cfm'; in fckconfig.js?

Yes, I did. Sorry I didn't mention that in my original message, but yep, I'm set up for cfm all the way. I did a file compare against my version 2.2 editor and everything checks out.

It's very strange that it doesn't work anymore, because nothing changed in the ColdFusion code since v2.2. Did you change anything else in your application? Does v2.2 still work if you roll back?

Yep, sure does. I can get the file manager to work when I choose PHP as my language but CF isn't happening. Very strange.

What happens when you browse to:

http://127.0.0.1:8600/YOURAPP/FCKeditor ... entFolder=

Does it show you valid xml?

RE: ColdFusion File Manager not viewing files

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it on my home development machine and it works just fine. On my shared hosting environment, it doesn't seem to be able to load the connector.cfm file and returns a 404 error. I'm starting to wonder if it isn't a problem with my host now.

RE: ColdFusion File Manager not viewing files

I figured it out! Your suggestion gave me an important clue which led me to the solution. My /fckeditor/ directory is underneath the root of my CF web site. My CF web site is set up in such a manner that if the user browses to a file that is not index.cfm, that file isn't displayed. The solution is to add an application.cfm file in the /fckeditor/ directory in order to allow the connector.cfm file to be "seen" by the application.

Thanks again for your help!

Excellent Chris ... very important to add the additional Application.cfm to FCKEditor directory if using Fusebox4.x and 2.3b ... thanks for your post

RE: ColdFusion File Manager not viewing files

I am having a similar problem with the cold fusion verion. For some reason it is not finding the connector.
When I enter the http://127.0.0.1:8600/YOURAPP/FCKeditor ... entFolder=

I am getting the following error.
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

When I run the FCKeditor I am getting a 404 error.

I have corectly set up the fckconfig.js file to select Cold Fusion as both the Quick Upload Language and the Browser Language.

Any ideas?

RE: ColdFusion File Manager not viewing files

Maybe your xml becomes invalid because you have an Application.cfm or a OnRequestEnd.cfm file that are producing output.

It might help to add a cfabort tag as the last line in connector.cfm.
