Recently I finished a site and migrated it to the client's live server. Before migration, CKEditor worked great. After migration, the body field no longer shows up when editing existing content.

What's strange is if I create new content in any content type, the CKEditor pane shows up fine and I can continue as normal.

Any ideas why it is broken for existing content?

In troubleshooting, I did the following 1) upgraded to the newest DEV version 2) update.php 3) cleared Drupal Cache 4) cleared browser cache. 5) completely uninstalled module and reinstalled. Weirdly, problem still exists: cant edit content that migrated to new server but can easily create new content and ckeditor works fine.

Nothing worked. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Blue

Perhaps this is a support request more than a bug report, but either way, it's not working as expected. Please change if another category is more appropriate. This seems to be a similar issue, although for D6 http://drupal.org/node/735028?mode=2&sort=2

FIXED - Ok, there was an error in what I said above. I had only disabled the module, not completely uninstalled it.

If you are having this issue after migration to a new server, the solution is to disable the module, completely uninstall the module, and then re enable the module. For me, everything worked fine after that.

However, I am going to leave this issue open. Is this a bug? What setting in the database needs changing in order for this to migrate correctly? I migrated using the 'back up and migrate module' which has always worked fine before.

Thanks,
Blue

Hi,

It should be fixed in the last DEV. It was problem with statis paths to libraries: #1192622: [D7] Replace static paths to plugins in the database with dynamic paths
Pls check last DEV and launch update.php. After this pls write does help or not.

Greetings

I've got the same issue, but uninstalling the module didn't work for me. What is strange is that it's only affect the body field. Other fields show up well, even other text-areas with CKeditor. And it is the same for all my content types.
