Parse error - could not load type 'CKFinder.Connector.Connec

I have the same problem and the same error.
All the necessary maps are writable and the base map is also set correctly.

I'm using ckeditor 3.0 with ckfinder 1.4

This is the error I receive: Could not load type 'CKFinder.Connector.Connector'

Hopefully somebody has the answer to this problem.

Thanks in advance!

Add me to the list receiving the error.

I'm not sure if it's an actual fix since I'm still getting a different type of error (permissions), but the "could not load type" message seems to trace to module not being built (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306155). I opened ckfinder\_source\CKFinder.Net.csproj in Visual Studio and built it, then copied the \ckfinder\_source\bin\Debug\CFinder.dll file to my main project \bin.

That seemed to fix that error, so hopefully I just need to set the right permissions on the upload directory to see if it all works

I think I got my permissions problem worked out, but I'm still getting the "could not load type" error. Here's the error detail that I get:

Just to make sure I'm in sych with everyone else, I've got \ckeditor (ver 3.0) and \ckfinder (ver 1.4) in the root dir of my project. I'm also using the Syrinx CKEditor V3 ASP.NET Wrapper. In my test case I'm trying to upload to \ckfinder\userfiles\images\ and have set permissions on userfiles and images directories to allow the ASPNET user with READ, WRITE, and EXECUTE permissions. The above error shows after the selected file attempts to upload to the directory.

The only config tweaking I've done is in \ckeditor\config.js

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

    config.filebrowserImageUploadUrl = '/ckfinder/core/connector/aspx/connector.aspx?command=QuickUpload&type=Images';

};

... and in \ckfinder\config.ascx to authenticate everyone for testing:

public override bool CheckAuthentication()
   {
      // WARNING : DO NOT simply return "true". By doing so, you are allowing
      // "anyone" to upload and list the files in your server. You must implement
      // some kind of session validation here. Even something very simple as...
      //
      //      return ( Session[ "IsAuthorized" ] != null && (bool)Session[ "IsAuthorized" ] == true );
      //
      // ... where Session[ "IsAuthorized" ] is set to "true" as soon as the
      // user logs on your system.

      //return false;
      return true;
   }

I had the same problem but was able to fix it.

Just make sure that the correct version of the .Net Framework is being used. It should be .Net 2.0. Also make sure that the folder /ckfinder is configured as an application.

Open Internet Information Services (IIS)
Open your website and right click on the ckfinder directory. Click Properties.
In the Directory tab, click the "Create" button to configure the directory as a Web application. If you see "Remove", then the directory is already a Web application.
Click the ASP.NET tab.
Under "ASP.NET Version", select "2.0.50727".
Click Apply and then the OK button.
Finally, make sure that the /ckfinder/userfiles (or whatever the upload folder is) has "Modify" permissions and that its permissions are inheritable by child directories and files.
If you did everything correctly, you should be able to see the File Browser.

Same here

Check post from mariojvargas, make sure you're running the correct version of .Net framework.

I am getting this same error, but only after I publish to my internet based site. The code works fine in my local development environment. I'm running .NET Framework 4 in both scenarios. Any help? Here's the error I get on my internet based server.


It was not possible to properly load the XML response from the web server.

Raw response from the server:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Well that was easy! Republished my entire site and it works now. Must have missed a file or something the first two times around.
