CMS Made Simple Forums

I just set up a site using 1.2.3 . All went smoothly until client tried to insert an image into an existing page using TinyMCE editor.

She was not able to access the uploaded images and select one to insert in page. The workaround was to click on the image in the upload folder, copy the url and paste it into the pop-up window.

I was surprised that so many people on the forum were having this problem. I never found a way to solve this.
This may be what the thread starter meant by his thread title.

Where in the uploads folder? tiny is looking in uploads/images then from there it will look in additional folders but they have to be in uploads/images as in uploads/images/wedding, in tiny you will see images and folders in uploads/images click folder and it opens to show images...

I may not be doing something right.

Images are already uploaded into this directory:http://mysite.com/uploads/images/test-image.jpg

In TinyMCE I click on insert image icon and a window pops up



If I click link next to image url the FCKeditor resources Browser window pops up with a 404 error.

===========================

Right click on the 404 page and find out what the exact URL it is throwing.

I had a problem with one installation because I accidentally left the trailing slash on in the config file. The URL to the files in the file manager were going domain.comuploads/files/

Finding out the exact URL the 404 is being displayed will help with debugging.

Thanks for taking the time to respond .......however........

This is the path I see in the 404 page.
BTW: at the bottom of the 404 page after all the 404 stuff there is a upload image area with browse and upload buttons. If you browse to a image and click upload it doesn't do anything.

I have the same problem, when I click on the filebrowser in the popup-window a new popup appears and the system freezes .

I'm sorry to hear some are having troubles leading to them questioning CMS MS, it really is brilliant, kudos to all involved!

Strangely though, after installing dozens of CMS MS's I hit this exact problem today, though I don't usually use this method to add an image/file, so it may exist in the past, but I kind of doubt it.

Short answer, in my case, I had to reload the files in \Modules\TinyMCE....I am still not sure why they were 'corrupt' but would have to guess it was an error when extracting the files on the server during setup.

In more detail, the problem looked like this:


Upon further investigation, the files were corrupt and looked like this:


When they should have looked like this:


I reloaded the files in \Modules\TinyMCE and all appears well.

well, i have similar problem with tinymce and cmsms 1.2.3

i updated cmsms 2 weeks ago, and i just tried to use Insert/Edit Image button in tinymce ... and i was surptised
popup opened, and loaded header and left column ot the main page, without subnavigation on the left, and 404 error in the content area...

i'll try to replace the tiny mce module files.. hope this does the trick :)

No, it didn't.
The problem is more complex, it is not just the inser image button, all buttons are experiencing this ..

any ideas ?

Have you tried it with Firefox, IE7 may be blocking it...

MasterAIP: I've played around with permissions etc and can no longer 'duplicate' this problem, after reloading \Modules\TinyMCE.  Based on your image, you may do well to look at how and where you're calling Google Ads to see if this is causing problems?  Good luck

Mark:  Good call!! I don't 'normally' use IE and was surprised by the ugly problems that crept in, including blocking, when I tried it to Administer a site as a result of your post...ugly this IE, ugly 

I thought I'd jump in here because I experienced exactly the same problem as the first poster. All working locally but not on the remote server. Tiny could not see/find my images. Click on Tiny image button then on the image browser buton to the right of he image URL field and nothing. After reading all the posts here I decided to look more closely at myconfig.php this is where the problem was.

$config['uploads_path'] = '/home/users/uks2353/html/mydomain.com/torch_theatre/uploads/images';

incorrect!

$config['uploads_path'] = '/home/users/uks2353/html/mydomain.com/torch_theatre/uploads';

correct!

Once I'd removed the /images everything worked. I though someone may find this useful.

sarah_h is correct.

Don't confuse the uploads_path and the image_uploads_path.

Not a browser issue as works AOK in FF IE7 and IE6

IE, firefox, no matter what the browser is ...
i think this is a module problem, i just dont know why. these buttons were ok last time i used the to insert images etc. gogle ads were there too... so they cant cause the problem.

Update:
I just updated to 1.2.4 greenland and then:
uninstal the tinymce module, delete module files via ftp, upload tinymce folder and its files from 1.2.4 distibution, install module .. same 404 error..

something is wrong with my cms but what is it?

Similar problems-

When using TinyMCE editor and when trying to add an image, then when clicking browse for an image, when the popup box appears, it shows the following-

Internal Server Error

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@mysite.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

The source of the error window is as follows-

If anyone could help, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Ryan.

Old thread...

But most problems from tiny can be due to the modules folder and tiny needing 755 permissions set...
