CKFinder 1.1 Disabled?

simplistik wrote:Nevermind it was the CheckAuthentication feature. Got it worked out

This may happen when you point baseDir to the wrong directory. Suppose you have "userfiles" directory with 777 permissions.
If you set

$baseDir = '/userfiles/';

it is most likely that CKFinder will throw an error, because CKFinder expects baseDir to be an absolute server path.

Take a look at the following examples and use something similar:

$baseDir = 'D:/CKFinder/CKFinder/userfiles/';

or

$baseDir = '/home/login/public_html/ckfinder/files/'; 

Hi, I've got the same problem. I can't get fckeditor to work. I'm trying many configurations and I still get error "The file browser is disabled for security reasons...."
I'm crazy from this piece of code. Please help!!

Hi there.

I have the same problem. My settings are the following:

$baseUrl = '/site_name/userfiles/';
phisical directory: c:\program files\easyphp\www\site_name\userfiles
virtual directory: http://127.0.0.1:8080/site_name/userfiles

I cannot understand what's the problem!! Security problems?? Why?

I really need to solve this bug... Thanks!

Did you adjust the CheckAuthentication so it does verify that the user has logon to your system?

I disabled user authentication.
I really don't need that, because the login control is made somewhere else in my code.

Thanks.

I had this - and searched the forums (plenty of helpful tips) - but the one that solved it for me:

The site was running PHP in "Safe mode" - once this was disabled, the Upload function worked.

Hope this helps someone.

Thanks

Hi,

I have the same problem.

I get the error message "It was not possible to complete the request due to file system permission restrictions" when trying to upload an image.

My settings:
$baseUrl = '/gfx/fckimages/';
$baseDir = '/dana/data/lillnord.dk/docs/gfx/fckimages/'; // This is the absolute server path

Folder permissions have been set to 777.

But i'm still not able to get it working.

Any ideas?.... Thanks

If you're using PHP, make sure that safe mode is disabled (like ariammedia suggested).

Worked it out....

Apparently the folders in which my images are placed, have to be located within the CKFinder folder.

I changed my settings to:
$baseUrl = '/ckfinder/fckimages/';
$baseDir = '/dana/data/lillnord.dk/docs/ckfinder/fckimages/';

And now it works...

Hey guys, this was also being a pain in my proverbial ass. I tried everything, setting it to an absolute path, setting it every way I could think of. Nothing ever worked.

My original $baseUrl was '/opt/lampp/htdocs/Departments/JOMC/ckfinder/userfiles'

This did NOT work for me, I don't know why, I changed the path as much as I could, wondering if it needed something just a little different. How I fixed this was using a little extra php in the config file, because the resolveUrl() function they created just wasn't working and I didn't want to take the time to find where that function was located. So I did this:

Given that your config.php file is located inside your ckfinder folder and the folder that you're using to upload to is located ALSO under your ckfinder folder (default is userfiles) then this should work for you:

$baseDir = realpath(dirname(__FILE__))."/userfiles/";

I hope that helps some of you who have this problem like I did, because it was seriously irritating the living hell out of me.

Cheers!

Hi to all,

Thank you StreakDragon, your solution worked for me too.

I've got this message but after config alot, I see when you config no max upload file will resolve this problem
