CKEditor + CKFinder = not able to browse folders / upload

I've just installed CKEditor with CKFinder. The CKEditor works OK and also opens the CKFinder. So far so good. But once I want to browse a folder or upload an image CKFinder can't seem to find my upload folder.

This is the setup of the site:

url: http://www.mydomain.com
location CKEditor files: http://www.mydomain.com/admin/ckeditor/
location CKFinder files: http://www.mydomain.com/admin/ckfinder/
location upload folder: http://www.mydomain.com/upload/

the opload folder has the 777 permissions set.

The CKFinder config.php:

$baseUrl = '/upload/';
$baseDir = resolveUrl($baseUrl);

I also tried alternatives like:
- putting the upload folder inside the CKFinder folder
- $baseUrl = 'http://www.mydomain.com/upload/';
$baseDir = '/home/username/domains/mydomain.com/public_html/upload/'

The CKEditor config.js:

CKEDITOR.editorConfig = function( config )
{
// Define changes to default configuration here. For example:
// config.language = 'fr';
// config.uiColor = '#AADC6E';

// added code for ckfinder ------>
config.basePath = '/admin/ckfinder/';
config.filebrowserBrowseUrl = '/admin/ckfinder/ckfinder.html';
config.filebrowserImageBrowseUrl = '/admin/ckfinder/ckfinder.html?type=Images';
config.filebrowserFlashBrowseUrl = '/admin/ckfinder/ckfinder.html?type=Flash';
config.filebrowserUploadUrl = '/admin/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Files&currentFolder=/upload/';
config.filebrowserImageUploadUrl = '/admin/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Images&currentFolder=/upload/';
config.filebrowserFlashUploadUrl = '/admin/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Flash&currentFolder=/upload/';
// end: code for ckfinder ------>
};

remark: I also tried to remove the '&currentFolder=/upload/', but also no luck.

Any suggestions?

Re: CKEditor + CKFinder = not able to browse folders / uploa

I have the identical problem... well documented!

Edit: I was getting in but I wasn't seeing the contents I'd expected. That was because way down in config.php there is

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

and I needed to change url and directory to "image" instead of "images"
