filedepot interface not showing

You can follow the directions in the README and when that doesn't work, review them again because if they are followed, the module will work. Review other issues posted in the issue queue for suggestions.

Well you would be surprised how many do not notice the README. As per my suggestions review the issue queue and you will notice that we require more information to help you. It's also noted in the README - just saying it does not appear is not all that helpful.

Same issue - White blank page. Wonder if anyone has found a solution yet. I too followed the readme file forwards and backwards to no avail. It occurred to me that maybe my library js files were saved wrong and sure enough, they were. Once I fixed that, I uninstalled and then reinstalled the module, but still doesn't work. I checked the page source and everything appears to be in place. What could cause the module to not render? I'm using OG ver1. Do I need to connect OG to Filedepot first? Can't wait to use this file management system once it's fixed!

Any help is much appreciated.

Looking into this further (page source), I see that the library js file jquery.blockui.js is not loading the page. Wondering if there's an error in this file's code. I downloaded the file directly from the author's Git repository at: https://github.com/malsup/blockui/

File name: jquery.blockUI.js (note uppercase UI)

Finally got it to work, while writing this!

The problem was the name AND folder must match and are CASE SENSITIVE. The UI must be lowercase! NOT: jquery.blockui/jquery.blockUI.js, but query.blockui/jquery.blockui.js. Also, just a little quibble, the README says: SAVE FILE as jquery.blockui/jquery.blockui.js. This is obviously incorrect. Should say SAVE FOLDER AND FILE as jquery.blockui/jquery.blockui.js

Thanks! Now I get to find out how great this module really is. Yeah!!

If this has already been suggested elsewhere, then ignore, but here's what I would suggest:

Using Firefox, download the Firebug add-on. Using firebug, see if there are any 404s or errors that appear in the Console tab or the Net tab.
That should tell you exactly what your browser is requesting and what it can't find.

@advermut: I'm glad you got your installation of filedepot installed and working but the README does already have clear instructions on the need to create a separate folder for each library.

The filedepot module requires the libraries module be installed and works with version 1 or version 2 of the libraries module.

You will need to create a sites/all/libraries folder if you don't already have the libraries module installed.

*** PLEASE read carefully and create the required diretories (folders) and rename the files as noted below ***

*** One of the changes with version 2 of the libraries module appears that it now requires you to create separate folders under
sites/all/libraries for each library file with the folder name the same as the library file.

*** Assuming your libraries folder exists at sites/all/libraries, create two directories below the sites/all/libraries folder:
- sites/all/libraries/html_encoder
- sites/all/libraries/jquery.blockui

The following javascript files then need to be retrieved and saved to their respective folders under the sites/all/libraries folder.
> http://www.strictly-software.com/scripts/downloads/encoder.js - SAVE FILE as: html_encoder/html_encoder.js
> http://jquery.malsup.com/block/#download - SAVE FILE as jquery.blockui/jquery.blockui.js

When we added support for Version 2.x of the libraries module, it required separate folders for each library. We added code to test that the folders exist and show an error message with directions to create the folders for the libraries to load. You now must have the separate folders even if your using the older 1.x version of the libraries module.

Were you not getting the large error message and directions to fix the installation when you accessed the filedepot main page?

@blainelang - Yes you are correct! I guess I shouldn't have mentioned the SAVE FILE as jquery.blockui/jquery.blockui.js thing. All I was trying to point out is that SAVE FILE as jquery.blockui/jquery.blockui.js is NOT just a file but also a FOLDER indicated by the "/". That was the only part that was not clear. Maybe it should say SAVE FILE as jquery.blockui.js. The other thing I discovered was that the plugin author uses the file name "jquery.blockUI.js", which has uppercase UI in the name. So, one must change the file name to match your instructions before the js file will work. That ended up being the problem with my installation. Once I changed UI to ui, all was good with the world again.

Sorry if my comments caused confusion. I appreciate all your hard work on this module.

Thanks!

You have to use google CDN http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/yui/2.7.0/build/ in the Filedepot preferences settings to get the module to work. I think that yahoo does not have yui 2.7.0 any more ...

@nasia1234: I still have sites installed and working that are using the default Yahoo CDN URL. It may depend on what country you are in.

@cordigital: good to hear you now have it installed. This issue should now be closed and a new issue used for different questions.

Your attached image tells me that your theme is the source of your layout issue - try with one of the base themes to eliminate a theme issue.

Refer to this issue for some direction on setting folder permissions: http://drupal.org/node/1892466#comment-6955904

I have tried two put html_encoder.js and jquery.blockui.js files inside sites/all/libraries directory also bt didnt work.
plz help.

thanks & regards

We have a video as well now on how to install filedepot - listed on the front page of the project.

hey Thanx for the reply.I am new to this site.Can you pls give me the link of vedio.

When I saved the jquery file, it saved with 2 capital letters in it: jquery.blockUI.js

Case often matters in the Unix world.

Rename the file with all lowercase letters - jquery.blockui.js - and save. Resolved the issue for me.
