Could not load type 'FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowserConnector

The problem is that the names of file browser components have changed between FCKeditor.Net 2.5 and FCKeditor.Net 2.2.

In FCKeditor.Net 2.5 there are:
FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowser.Connector
FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowser.Uploader

In FCKeditor.Net 2.2 we had:
FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowserConnector
FredCK.FCKeditorV2.Uploader

Note: in older version there was no dot after "FileBrowser".


Now, since FCKeditor 2.5.1 the default value in the first line of the following files:

• editor\filemanager\connectors\aspx\connector.aspx


• editor\filemanager\connectors\aspx\upload.aspx

is set to FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowser.Connector and FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowser.Uploader.

In FCKeditor versions up to 2.5 it was: FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowserConnector and FredCK.FCKeditorV2.Uploader.


So if you are using for example:
FCKeditor.Net 2.2 + FCKeditor 2.6
or
FCKeditor.Net 2.5 + FCKeditor 2.4

You may encounter the following errors:

• Could not load type 'FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowserConnector


• Could not load type 'FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowser.Connector

The solution is to adjust the first line of the following files:

• editor\filemanager\connectors\aspx\connector.aspx


• editor\filemanager\connectors\aspx\upload.aspx

Remember that you also have to change the configuration file located in
fckeditor\editor\filemanager\connectors\aspx\config.ascx
CheckAuthentication() function must return true for authenticated user (set it simply to true for testing).

Excellent - what do I change them to please?
Sorted this problem out myself

No need to have anything changed in config.ascx. The default image file location is userfiles/images so stick this in wwwroot with your project folder also off wwwroot. Stick the fckeditor files in the project folder and bob's your uncle.

I'm getting the same error when clicking the "Browse Server" button. It says "the server didn't send back a proper xml response. Please contact your system administrator. XML request error: internal server error (500).
It's pointing to the connector.aspx file. Further down it says [HttpException]: Could not load type 'FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowser.Connector.
The version being used is 2.6.3. I changed the connector.aspx and the upload.aspx files to reference to Could not load type 'FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowser.Connector to Could not load type 'FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowserConnector and Could not load type 'FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowser.Uploader to Could not load type 'FredCK.FCKeditorV2.FileBrowserUploader and it still did not work. Any ideas?
