[solved] "No content given" cannot create a new page

[jd447]

i'm not able anymore to create a new page, "no content given" error is displayed. although i have content!
but i can modify pages that i've already created.
would it be a problem with the DB?

i'm running the 1.6.6 cmsms version.

thanks in advance!

And you do have the default {content} call inside your template? As it needs at least the {content}. Besides that one you can have multiple content-blocks, but that one must exist.

absolutly.

the weird stuff, is that i already created some content, and it worked fine. the problem occurs now, when i want to create some new content. i filled all the request fields, but the cms tells me i didn't give any content, so i cannot create a new page.

though, i can create for a exemple a "page seperator", but the minute a convert it to a "content page" i got the issue.

and again, i filled it with content.

okay, my bad! 

i had only "content blocks" in my template. once i added the {content} tag, it no more issues...
i'm still wondering i managed the create the previous pages?!

Maybe the other pages are linked to another template, that had the tag inside.

I have this exact problem with a new 1.6.6 installation - and I doubt it is the content tag for these reasons...

1. It allowed me to create plenty of pages at first.
2. It still allows me to copy pages and then edit them...and also work on the ones I created.
3. It does not show the content area even before I spec a template or a parent page......

I tried two different browsers...it almost seems as it starts to come up, and then the form gets shorter.
Please see enclosed screen shot....

OK, think it is solved.....

To be clear, it appears that that HOME PAGE of the site must have that content tag on it or else adding content does not work. I assume this is some sort of a bug, because many people have static or image based front pages.....or others without actual content tags needed. Every other page on my site had the content tag, but without having it on the main page (top page - default page) the content entry does not work.
