no directory listing or uploading possible

Hello

I've set up CKFinder with FCKEditor today, and now i'm having trouble getting it to work.
When I start an instance by trying to upload a picture e.g. the Window pops up, but the files i already have uploaded to the userfiles directory are not listet. I also can't create any subfolders or upload files. All permissions are set to 777. What am I doing wrong?

my config-file is modified as below:

$baseUrl = '/userfiles/';
$baseDir = '/userfiles/';

my server-directory:

Change $baseDir to the absolute server path, e.g.:

$baseDir = '/home/login/public_html/userfiles/';

It works, thank you very much
But can you tell me the reason why it only works with the absolute server path?

Re: no directory listing or uploading possible

...because if this variable is set, CKFinder expects it to be an absolute server path

You can tell CFKinder to discover that path automatically:

$baseDir = resolveUrl($baseUrl);

(it should work in most cases).

Anyway, setting this variable to the right path is a much better solution (no additional function calls on each request).
This path is used by CKFinder only in internal processing, it is not shown to the end user.
