Missing Images

[Dirk]

Greetings,

I have a new installation running on Linux, newest release of PHP and MySQL.  The site loads and runs fine, however, any time I upload an image I get the correct dialong box stating it has been successfully uploaded but the image only shows up as a placeholder.  I have checked the permissions and what-not on the directories and even tried setting them to 777 but still no luck.  Weird thing is they do get uploaded to the image location - but they dont show up in the GUI editor nor do they show on the live site.  I have read the installation requirements and all the settings/suggestions and I dont see anything set incorrectly.  I could not locate anything in the forums regarding this exact issue.  Can someone offer a suggestion?

Thanks,

-Dirk

May help... and all pages should have, in , {metadata} to help them show on pages...

[Dirk]

Thanks for the tips, Mark.  Unfortunately setting the UMASK and the {metadata} did not resolve the issue.  When I right-click on the image holder when viewing the page normally (out of edit mode) the URL says it is http://mysite.com/IMG000426.jpg

Shouldn't the URL include the /images path in the URL?  I checked the paths and everything appears to be correct.

If it is easier for you to see what I am referring to I'd be glad to set up a temp Uer/Pass so you can muddle in it - there's no data of value in there at the moment.  Perhaps you will see something I am obviously missing?

Any other suggestions?  Thank you!

Update:  I also wanted to include that, on opensourcecms.com, the demo version uploads and saves the files fine - and when I right-click on the image it shows:  http://www.opensourcecms.com/cms/upload ... e.jpg  -  when I right-click on the images on my web site, it shows: http://mysite.com/cmsmadesimple/image.jpg   ...  the /uploads/images does not show up in the URL, but the config.php does have the correct paths in the images section. 

Anyone have any clues?  I really need to get this up and running   ???

Still looking for a solution...

Hi,

pref: I'm working on the last version 1.0.4, fresh installation, when I used 1.0.2 I had not this problem

I have a similar problem, that Dirk has, only when I try to load clicking on "insert/edit image" (mountain icon) into editing page. Dialog box says "your file was uploaded" but if I browse the server, by this dialog window,  the image folder appears empty.
The path that dialog shows, after "uploading" (that wasn't!) is not absolute but exactly like /image.jpg

BUT:  "Image Manager" ( Admin Main Menù) work well, the list of images appears and I can upload only from here.
I checked all permission...

Thanks, keep up the good work and excuse me for my poor english 


p.s. I posted this also into Italian support of this forum, not for crossing but, if resolved, I will translate the solution there

Well, this IS the exact same issue I am having.  If I upload using FCKEditor and I select the image tool, then use the UPLOAD tab, I browse for an image and upload it - it says successful (Just as gianpiero stated) ... but the link in the URL is simply /imagename.ext - when I use the demo of CMS Made Simple  at the CMS demo site - it places the full URL in the image path.

Obviously, Since the purpose of CMS is simplicity in adding and manipulating content and structure, you can see that manually editing the path would be a direct contradiction of its intended purpose and value.

I' have seen some differences into
FCKeditor\editor\filemanager\upload\php\upload.php
between 1.0.2 and 1.0.4.
Does the bug (?) stay here ? I'm not able to check, sorry ...

[Dirk]

I do not have access to 1.02 to test this theory.  I have 1.03 downloaded and cannot find a link to 1.02 - but I will do some additional digging.

This is very frustrating to me because this seems like a most excellent CMS software - and I am a new fan - but this issue makes it near impossible to use for my intended audience.  I would have thought a developer or author would have chimed in by now with a suggestion...
Are you alive out there Ted?  I can see your house - don't make me drive across PA and whine outside your window!  lol.   ;)

[Dirk]

UPDATE:  I found 1.02 and installed it and you were correct gianpiero - it works fine.  I installed this using the very same base installation as I am using for 1.04 - the image upload works fine and shows perfectly.  Something must be amiss in the FCKEditor from version 1.03 upward.  Ted - Can you look into this?  And is it possible to copy the FCKEditor PHP files from version 1.02 and simply replace those in 1.04? (updated below...) 


I was able to copy the FCKEditor module from 1.02 and place it into the 1.04 installation - go to the module manager, un-install 1.03 and choose install (installs 1.01) and it all works fine now - this may be a temporary solution until this bug is worked out of FCKeditor.

waiting for correction or development I decided to work, on editing on my site, whit three tabs of Firefox:

first = view site
second = editing pages
third = File or image manager

...waiting for a definitive solution, I wish you to spend you Sunday the best way, bye 

[gianpiero]

Hey Dirk
seems to be resolved ...

changing the file, of the last (1.0.4) release
/modules/FCKeditorX/FCKeditor/editor/filemanager/upload/php/upload.php
whith the corrispondent of 1.0.2 release

Take it as a " beta-solution ", has to be tested again but is working, that's my first impression.

I hope that a developer or official support wiil test the compatibility and approve

thanks and bye everyone

I have the same problem and tried changing the file, of the last (1.0.4) release
/modules/FCKeditorX/FCKeditor/editor/filemanager/upload/php/upload.php
whith the corrispondent of 1.0.2 release

It still doesn't work - does anybody have any other suggestions?
