TinyMCE suddenly stopped loading [SOLVED - kinda]

Post by simplesimon »

I was editing adding large number of pages (20 or so) to my site. Then TinyMCE did not load. I though I ran out of memory and restarted Firefox. It sill didn't load. I thought maybe my hosting provider was upgrading my dedicated server. I have another site on the same server using CMSMS. So I checked that. TinyMCE loaded fine on that site.

I didn't change anything from when it loaded to when it didn't load. I was merely adding pages. Even so, I uninstalled and reinstalled TinyMCE - and lost all my settings of course. :D

I have TinyMCE enabled. I can see the checkbox "Turn WYSIWYG on/off". Is there anywhere else to look that I might have clicked by accident?

My only clue is this:
Inspecting the source with Firebug, I can see that the Javascript is being executed on the working site and not on the broken site. I'll paste some lines here incase someone has a clue for me. I can kind of make out that the Javascript must not be loading and therefore not outputting those dynamically inserted lines.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Sudden disappearance of tiny, hmmm could be a number of things...

1) permissions on tiny aren't set right, should be 755, module folder should be 755 also...

2) you need to hit the Reset All to Default in the advanced tab...

3) you may now need to set the static config for it...

I had the same trouble after upgrading.
I tried everything i found here in the forum and what came into my mind.
(reinstalling, permissions, ...)

I completely reinstalled the whole cms.
And now it works.

Thanks for the advice. There is no difference to the working site and non-working site as far as I can see. This is a fresh install of 1.6. The permissions are 755 for the user that apache runs as - same as the working site. Why would I need to use a static config all of a sudden? No it doesn't work either. I think I have a few ideas of what to try. I'll post back here in a bit.

I saw the "Load the CMS-linker:" option. I know that the problem started from creation and editing of one page to the next. I turned that option off and... Tiny loads. So I about the pages "menu text" as that is what the CMS-linker seems to use. I thought maybe some were too long, as I am using Kanji page titles. I changed the menu text. Tiny loads with CMS-linker. I pasted the original text back into the field and saved the page. It still loads. So maybe there were some non-displayed characters that were causing CMS-linker to choke. The pasting of the text could have cleaned some of that up.

I hope this helps someone else with the same problem.

Peace out!

I don't expect you to. No worries. I Just thought I'd do something novel and ask for help.

1.6. Oh I mean 1.6.3. I guess there is no 1.6.0 :o My bad. ;D

I tried to upgrade from 1.5.4 to 1.6.3 but "failed" with the tinymce.
(everything else went fine - yes i first upgraded to 1.6 and then to 1.6.1 and ... but it did not check after each upgrade if the tiny is still where it should be so i cannot say where exactly the problem appeared)
At the end the tiny simply disapeared. I only saw a bulk textarea.
But only when editing pages. In the tiny settings it worked. Also in the global options and news, gcb.
I removed it, reinstalled it, checked permissions, settings, created new backend users, uploaded all files again (even the "full" package) etc.
No luck.
Since it was just a test (because i never did an upgrade before but always reinstalled the whole CMS and just wanted to see why users have trouble with upgrading) i did not worry about making a DB dump, reinstalling CMSms 1.6.3 with all needed modules and import only the content from the dump.
It only took 5 minutes where the upgrade process took me an half hour without any luck.
However for me my problem is solved.
If i have time i'll test it again but checking after each step if everything still is ok before coninueing with the next version.
If i can reproduce it i'll report it.
