FCKeditor and TinyMCE editors image browser returns Error 500

Hi,
I've just installed 1.4.1 CMS and first tried the TinyMCE 2.4.7 where I had troubles first getting my toolbar to show up (after reading on forum I found that answer), but, there has been no help with the issue of the Image Browser. When I click to add picture, the pop-up Image/Edit box appears. When I click on browse to file, I get an internal server error. I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling previous versions (which don't have the right buttons to bring the toolbar back), and also tried installing FCKeditor, which gives me this error,

The server didn't send back a proper XML response. Please contact your system administrator.
XML request error: Internal Server Error (500)
Requested URL:
http://knightgoddess.com/cms/modules/FC ... 5406684604

I've turned debugging on, but, nothing seems to be glaring as to why this doesn't work. I've upgraded to 1.4.1 on other sites I've built, the only difference is that they use TinyMCE 2.4.5. When I exported that XML and installed it to my current site, it uploaded as 2.4.7, and still did not work.

Help!
Carey

It's hard to tell what's going on without more information on the error, but this seems to happen more often
(see this and this post for example)

Do you have access to your server's error log?
Any messages?

Regards,
D

I had this exact same problem and started using TinyMCE. But I got TinyMCE working with this solution:
http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 583.0.html

I just tested it with FCKeditor and it works for this problem also.

So, chmod your /modules directory to 755 and let me know if that works.

I'm not sure if this will have side-effects.
