Can't view File selection after moving to new server

Help with getting the CMS CORE package up and running. This does not include 3rd party modules, PHP scripts, anything downloaded via module manager or from any external source.

Can't view File selection after moving to new server

Post by blackmax »

I moved my CMS made simple site from the development server to the live server and since doing this I can't view the File Selection pop up window. The error is get occurs when I select some text, click on edit/insert link, then click on the browse button at Link URL. The next pop up is CMS Made Simple File Selection but it is returning Not Found. After I do this a few times the browse icon disappears altogether.

I first thought I must have lost some files in transferring the sites, but I've checked through these and uploaded again and everything appears to be there. The only difference between my development server (where it was working) and the live server is I didn't have the htaccess file on the development server. So I'm thinking something in the htaccess is causing the page to direct somewhere else.

I've pasted the htaccess below:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
DirectoryIndex index.php

# Rewrites urls in the form of /parent/child/
# but only rewrites if the requested URL is not a file or directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URL} !index\.php [nc]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [nc,L,QSA]

I can't find any other queries with a similar problem, but did read something similar occurring with languages - however this is not my problem...I'm stumped!

Hello blackmax,

Did you double check all path changes in the config.php?

Hi Rolf,

Thanks for your reply. I've just gone back into the config.php and double checked and can't see any errors. All the paths look correct and I can upload images and files via File Manager, I just can't insert them into the pages using TinyMCE.

I might try a different text editor and see if that makes a difference, although I don't think it's an error with that as I can get all the way to finding the file, it appears to be a CMSMadeSimple error. BTW I'm using version 1.5.3.

I've updated TinyMCE to version 2.4.8 and still no joy. I've also tried FCK editor and having the same issue.

I've found some other people have had the same issue, but still not found a solution.

Just to clarify the problem is inserting an image or file. Clicking the browse button returns a 404 error Page not found.

I'm still thinking it has something to do with the htaccess file but I can't see what would be causing that.

blackmax,

Tried to do the same thing without the .htaccess file yet?

Please put your System Information here.

Using version 1.5.3 of CMS Made Simple, you are very far behind, technically support is only for 2 versions back...

You may fix it by upgrading as it can fix any path problems you have, and if I were you I would look at the system info page in both installs, development and live, there you find a difference...
