File Browser won't browse my files

I've implemented CKFinder with CKEditor 3.0. Although I've set the config file to the correct folder path for images, it always defaults to a directory called images that doesn't exist. Has anyone else had this happen? Any advice? Thanks.

Can you paste here a part of your configuration file with resource type definitions and baseDir/baseUrl variables? (Please remove any sensitive data first, like license keys or domain names).

I'm having the same problem. Using PHP/Apache. Did you get your problem solved?

No, I never did. This is extremely frustrating. This is the last requirement of a project I'm working on, and I've been fighting this for weeks.

Re: File Browser won't browse my files

I discovered that the config.php file is missing the closing server tag (?>). This may be causing some problems. I added the closing tag and entered my server info as instructed. Not only did the thumbnails not show, but CKFinder couldn't find my files. I got error # 116. I googled it and couldn't find what it means. The only way I can get CKFinder to browse my files is by filling in the URL value with the directory path and leaving the directory blank. This is completely different than what the (limited) documentation indicates. My code looks like this:

$config['ResourceType'][] = Array(
'name' => 'Images',
'url' => '/outerFolder/innerFolder/'.$user_id,
'directory' => '',
'maxSize' => 0,
'allowedExtensions' => 'bmp,gif,jpeg,jpg,png',
'deniedExtensions' => '');

I'm way over my deadline because of this product and my client is ready to dump CKFinder altogether. Please help!!!

I'm really stuck here. If someone could reply it'd be great. There is almost no developer documentation. I really don't know how to proceed. Thanks in advance!!

$user_id = $_SESSION["userinfo"]["user_id"];
$baseUrl = "./documentSetting/userImages/".$user_id."/";
$baseDir = "http://domain.com/documentSetting/userImages/".$user_id."/";

$baseDir : the path to the local directory (in the server) which points to the
above $baseUrl URL. This is the path used by CKFinder to handle the files in
the server. Full write permissions must be granted to this directory.
