New Installation - Tiny MCE toolbar missing

[Felix]

Hi all,

I've read all the posts and tried numerous solutions that should enable my TinyMCE toolbar to be visible, but haven't been able to achieve this.

I'm working on a trial site for my club and have setup an online site using the free webhosting crowd 000.webhost.com.

Everything seems to work OK except TinyMCE

The server information text page is pasted below.

I've chmodded the config file to 666 but it still shows the red "X" failure.
I've chmodded the module directory to 755 but it still shows the red X too
I have a warning on PHP open basedir that I don't know how to fix.
I've cleared the cache numerous times and reloaded Firefox heaps of times (and even tried Internet Explorer) to no avail.
I've also dumped the whole website, reinstalled CMSMS from a clean upload of the zip file and then installed the site and sql backups and it's still no go.
I'm thinking of setting up another free website and loading CMSMS on that as a clean install, just to see if it works...

I'm fairly new to CMSMS and PHP and Apache and MySQL so I'm dabbling around, learning and hoping that someone can point out the simple error that I've made somewhere...

TIA

Felix

Still no luck..

Tried setting up an entirely new site with a new /clean install, following all installation instructions, but you guessed it, no TinyMCE.

Aaah.. Hi Felix!

You still posting ?  Unreal.

Your initial post has been read 56 times so maybe you aren't the only one with this problem...

You know I installed CMS on my own home server and it worked fine, so what's your problem? 

I did a heap of research before choosing CMSMS and I think it's a fantastic application and it works pretty much "out of the box" even though I know bugger all about PHP and MYSQL, but I'm a quick learner, eh? 

Hell how hard can it be to find a workaround for your hosting company keeping the php.ini file and basedir to themselves?

Cheers and good luck...

Try installing the latest version of Tiny http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/tinymce

Also, check the permissions on the modules and/or Tiny directories.

Thanks Ziggy,

I'll give that a go.

I downloaded the newer version 2.4.8 and deleted 2.4.5 from the web server.

Uploaded the zip file to the modules directory and unzipped.  The following errors appeared:

Warning: ftp_put() [function.ftp-put]: Could not open data connection to port 52276: Cannot assign requested address in /home/files/public_html/includes/filesystem.inc.php on line 2565

Warning: ftp_put() [function.ftp-put]: Could not open data connection to port 36571: Cannot assign requested address in /home/files/public_html/includes/filesystem.inc.php on line 2565

So I deleted th TinyMCE install, then chmodded the modules directory to 666 and reinstalled the zip file.  This time I only got  the error once.  Maybe I should try chmodding the whole public_html folder to 666?

Any ideas?

Hello Felix,

free webhosting

Everything seems to work OK except TinyMCE

I've chmodded the config file to 666 but it still shows the red "X" failure.
I've chmodded the module directory to 755 but it still shows the red X too

    * max_execution_time: 10

after install config.php should be chmoded 444 and modules still 777.
Only 10s as max execution time is ugly low. This seems what you get for your free hosting.
The installer should have warned you about it.
Monitor your http error log. I bet it is full of max exec time errors.

Hello Pierre,

Thank you for your time and assistance.  Much appreciated.

The server won't let me chmod the config.php to 444 so it's 644 (and "System Information" seems happy with that, giving it a green tick).  Modules are 777.

I changed config.php to start the error log and browsed quite a few of the pages, oddly enough  I didn't get any max exec time errors.  I searched for possible errors that could indicate why TinyMCE wasn't working, but the only error I could come up with was under "Extensions, TinyMCE WYSIWYG, reset all settings to default.

A copy of the errors on this page is attached.

Regards,

Felix

Hello Felix,

I changed config.php to start the error log

No. By "your http error log" I mean your PHP enabled webserver http error log. It should be plenty of "script execution duration exceeded" sort of reports (and may be others).
