The image browser does not work

Hi!

I got RC2 and everything works smooth with my own cms-system. Everything except the image browser and upload stuff. I have been browsing around all the forum topics without being able to find anything.

I have tried to set
FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + "filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Connector=connectors/php/connector.php&ServerPath=/images/" ;

and

FCKConfig.ImageBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + "filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Type=Image&Connector=connectors/php/connector.php&ServerPath=/images/" ;

in fckconfig.js but nothing happens. It just wont show my images...

I've also tried the UserFile folder in the root of the site. Nothing happens. It is chmod:ed to 777.

My path is: /home/.sites/90/site62/web/admin/FCKeditor/

and all my images is in:
/home/.sites/90/site62/web/images (also chmod 777)

The server is apache and using php4.

Everyone else seems to get this working but how? It's really annoying when this is such a great app in all else means...

I would really apriciate help with configuring this so i can:
1) see my images in the file browser
2) upload new images

This is the last outpost in my descision in switching 20 cms-systems running htmlarea by interactivetools+imagemanager to finally only FCK.

Try:

FCKConfig.ImageBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + "filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Type=Images&Connector=connectors/php/connector.php&ServerPath=" ;

Type=Images will be the last sub directory!

RE: The image browser does not work

In my experience everytime I change the fckconfig.js file I need to clear the cache on my browser. I'm using Firefox. Hope this helps

RE: The image browser does not work

Hi,

I have made some progress and I think part of the problem is that by default the php connector looks in <webroot>/UserFiles/Images for images.

If that directory doesn't exist it appears to just bomb. It also has to be writable by the webserver in order for upload to work.

I'm still trying to figure out where the config options are to point it at a different directory. Hopefully others will be able to help out there... ?

RE: The image browser does not work

Looking at my server logs it seemed like the PHP code module wasn't even being called. I entered an ECHO and die(); into the PHP module and, sure enough. Its not using the PHP module at all.

Server logs show ASP module being called. I guess this will be a long trawl through the source code to find out why its not happening!

RE: The image browser does not work

Probably not good form to keep adding to your own postings but... for those who want to avoid time looking I found that the info is buried away in fckconfig.js (I was looking for config.inc.php out of habit!).

Uncomment the relevant line - you will see that PHP is disabled. I wonder if it might be possible to think of a more elegant solution to this so the correct block of code is selected depending on which language is in use?.

// Link Browsing
FCKConfig.LinkBrowser = true ;
FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + "filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Connector=connectors/asp/connector.asp" ;
//FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + "filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Connector=connectors/asp/connector.asp&ServerPath=/CustomFiles/" ;
//FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + "filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Connector=connectors/aspx/connector.aspx" ;
//FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + "filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Connector=connectors/php/connector.php" ;

RE: The image browser does not work

Woohoo - after much faffing about I got it to work fine in MS IE6.0. However it still pulls in the connect.asp file when using Mozilla. I am thoroughly baffled. I have flushed the cache, changed cache settings, pressed CTRL+F5 at every point and restarted Mozilla but it always loads the CONNECT.ASP version whereas IE is consistently loading CONNECT.PHP. A text search shows only about 4 places in the code where connect.asp is mentioned - and only one which is relevant (fckconfig.js) - and this has every mention of connect.asp commented-out. Waaaahh!!!. So.. it works in IE but not Mozilla.

RE: The image browser does not work

Is it possible that a webserver running PHP in safe mode will have problems with the image browser? I ask because I can get it working straight off the bat on servers that have safe mode off, but cannot for the life of me get it to work in safe mode....

RE: The image browser does not work

Can browse just fine and dandy in IE, doesn't work in Mozilla, no go in firefox or opera 7. I have tried the obvious bits about clearing caches and stopping/starting browsers to no avail. Don't think its a PHP but as the server logs show quite clearly that the PHP connector doesn't get called at all when using Mozilla. The ASP code gets called from exactly the same setup. with one browser but not another. Not the ISP's cache either as I am trying both locally of Apache on same PC and on server on local LAN. I note that there is some sort of remote call to Microsoft detection code in there somewhere but apart from that i am baffled. I don't have a map of the code so other than spending hours on it I don't know where to start. Shame really as I have got it working just fine and dandy in IE.Can't use it on live site tho as a lot of visitors use Moz!.

Victory is mine!

.... as Stewie would say.

I checked the security options in Mozilla and unchecked all the usual options you'd have enabled to prevent porno popups and the like and its now calling the PHP connector ... AND... I get an image preview and it inserts the image okay - woohoo!!!.

Only problem is - there is no way I would recommend anyone to use Moz without popup blocking and other security options. Maybe a bit of a rethink of the code might get around it. I have 100% PHP code which works just fine ffor browsing and uploading images. There are examples all over the net. Why use Javascript which may get trapped by popup-blockers??

Gnash!!. Shame as this edting interface is sooooo... good!!.

RE: The image browser does not work

I had similar problems (running RC3). The way I got the php connector to work was to modify connector.php and hardcoded the variable :$GLOBALS["UserFilesDirectory"] to the location I needed it to look in. After that, it ran like a charm...

Your mileage may vary, hope it helps!

RE: The image browser does not work

Here is something I have noticed.
It is true there is a default folder and it is UserFiles - note the case, it is important for unix servers!
The folders inside should have the right case
The other thing is the javscript config file does not appear to refresh easily, I am still trying to work out where it is being stored as I have cleared my cache in several places.

RE: The image browser does not work

Well... apparently it is called Image and not Images.

Anyways, although I got it working on one server, I cannot get it working on a different server. It just wont display the files and it gives an "unknown error creating folder" when creating a folder.

Surprisingly, when I tried to upload a file with the same name ads one of the files inside the UserFiles/Image folder, it could detect it and said that the uploaded image will be renamed. Yet, after that, the image that has just been uploaded is not there in the server.

Does anyone know the solution to this? Or is it permission problem?

RE: The image browser does not work

Hi!
The image browser is not working for me either. I'm using the default configuration, asp connector and ServerPath="/UserFiles/".

But the connector doesn't generate a suitable output, when I'm running "test.html" in the connectors folder I don't receive any output at all. The image browser is empty as well when I run it.

I'm running a Domino server with full permissions. Thanks in advance, your help is appreciated!!

RE: The image browser does not work

I created <webroot>/UserFiles/Image and it now uploads the image to it but then the browse button cannot see the image in <webroot>/UserFiles/Image. When I close that dialog box and retry inserting an image, the popup window freezes up the PC.

I am running XP Pro, IIS and have <webroot>/UserFiles/Image write enabled.
