Server Browser / File Upload

Even I get the same error with Joomla 1.0.15. Anybody has a solution for this please.

I believe that most of smilar problems can be solved by setting the right paths in config.php.

Path relative to the document root (that part after domain name).

$Config['UserFilesPath'] = '/files/' ;

Absolute server path to the same directory above

$Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'] = "/home/login/public_html/example.com/files/";

Note:

$Config['UserFilesPath'] = 'http://example.com/files/' ;

is ok.

but:

$Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'] = "http://example.com/files/";

is wrong.

UserFilesAbsolutePath

holds the local (server) path.

You mean "Internal Server Error" etc.?
As it says, check the server error log, it may contain some useful error messages.

Hint: url pointing to the file browser contains double dots "..". On some servers, it may be blocked by mod_security.
In such case, check the latest nightly build of FCKeditor.

Thx so much for replying wictor. I am having the same problem as mentioned before. Even after editing the config file, I am not able to upload images or browse my image directory.
When I click the image button and after that if I try to browse my server, I get this error,

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator [I am using GoDaddy as my host], support@supportwebsite.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.mysite.net Port 80

I am using fckeditor 2.3.1 for mojoBlog http://www.joomlify.com/component/option,com_sobi2/sobi2Task,sobi2Details/sobi2Id,5/Itemid,53/

In my config file below, I am editing as you told before. I have a Joomla installation on the root. So in my config file, I edit as below.


// Path to user files relative to the document root.

$Config['UserFilesPath'] = '/images/';

// Fill the following value it you prefer to specify the absolute path for the
// user files directory. Useful if you are using a virtual directory, symbolic
// link or alias. Examples: 'C:\\MySite\\userfiles\\' or '/root/mysite/userfiles/'.
// Attention: The above 'UserFilesPath' must point to the same directory.

$Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'] = 'http://www.mysite.net/html/images/' ;

But I am still not able to get to upload any image. Am I doing it right ?

Also, in the config file, after the global comments, I see this

global $Config ;

// SECURITY: You must explicitly enable this "connector". (Set it to "true").
// WARNING: don't just set "$Config['Enabled'] = true ;", you must be sure that only 
//      authenticated users can access this file or use some kind of session checking.
$Config['Enabled'] = $deans_fckeditor->can_upload();

Should I do anything about setting it explicitly to true and if I should, where and how should I edit it?



Thx in advance.

This is wrong:

$Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'] = 'http://www.mysite.net/html/images/' ;

you must put there an absolute server path.
Server path, not URL of your site.

It should be something similar to (on linux servers):

$Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'] = '/home/mylogin/public_html/www.mysite.net/html/images/' ;

or on windows servers:

$Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'] = 'C:\\MySite\\userfiles\\';
