Missing TinyMCE editor after CMSMS 1.1 install in sub-directory [SOLVED]

[michelG]

After first-time install of CMSMS 1.1 in a sub-directory, the TinyMCE editor will not display.

I get the following javascript error in my browser's error console:

Error: missing ; before statement
Source File: http://www.mydomain.com/cmsms/modules/T ... config.php
Line: 2, Column: 9
Source Code:
Fatal error:  main(): Failed opening required '\include.php' (include_path='.;c:\php\pear') in D:\inetpub\mydomain\cmsms\modules\TinyMCE\tinyconfig.php on line 5



Server: Windows 2003, MySQL5, PHP5

Hello everybody.

I didn't receive any reply on this issue.

It seems to be a broken link generated by the tinyconfig.php file:  it cannot find the include.php file where -- if I understand correctly -- the tinyMCE javascript is called. FYI, all my other modules (including CMKeditor) and system in general work correctly.

Elijah made available a new version of tinyMCE in the posting below, but it didn't fix the problem.
http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 680.0.html

Is this a bug in the tinyconfig file? Is this something I can fix myself if someone can telll me what to fix?

Hi michelG,

Sorry you didn't get a reply, as I'm sure you understand we're all quite busy.

I would try making the following change to modules/TinyMCE/tinyconfig.php and see if it works:

Code: Select all

 // session_id() returns an empty string if there is no current session, sotest if a session already exists before calling session_start() to prevent error notices:

It could be that "$_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']" is not set correctly on your server.

Hope this helps,

Elijah

Edit: You could also try hard coding it like this:

Code: Select all

require 'D:\inetpub\mydomain\cmsms\include.php';

Edit 2: Please tell me if using dirname(__FILE__) works and I'll commit the change to TinyMCE, since dirname(__FILE__) seems to be used most places like this in CMSMS.

Thanks Elijah. That did the trick. Thank you for spending your time to debug this.

Thanks, fix applied: http://viewsvn.cmsmadesimple.org/viewsv ... e&view=rev should hopefully be in CMSM 1.1.1

hmmm... doesn't appear to solve the problem in all cases 
i uncommented those 2 lines, but don't get any error messages
