Access Denied Issue

I have the same problem.

Yes, me too!

From what i gather...

Drupal Path = is The node where the directory listing is viewable / shows up . For exampel node/44/

File System Path = The path to the dir you want to list. However im not clear on if this has to be a drupal path
or if it can be ANY path. Ive tried both, but have never been able to see the filebrowser on the node.

so in other words, ive been able to add paths/ nodes but without errors, but on the other hand i havent seen
the filebrowser anywhere =)

The Drupal path is the web address you'd like to access the files at: Something like 'my_files' or 'yay' would be accessible at http://www.example.com/my_files or http://www.example.com/yay.

The file system path is the full path to the folder within the file system. So if you have some stuff in "C:\hey\there\yay" you'd need to enter that full path into this text field. This needs to be readable by Drupal, so it should be in the directory you've specified as your web root. Something like "/var/www" or "C:\wamp\www".

Susurrus: How would you make the "filebrowser" visible in Drupal? do you use an IFRAME in creating content pointing it to "http://www.example.com/my_files/ ?

This module needs some explaining, its probably us users that are stupid, but seems more people then me are having trouble with it , so a clearer picture on what to do , and how to use it is probably in order. My 2 cents.

If you take a look at my screenshot, the second entry should meet the instructions given by you, but how do i show whatever is in that dir IN DRUPAL..?

the filebrowser doesn't embed any content in any existing page, it just provides a page at the given Drupal path that displays all the filesin the specified file system path. Have you visited the Drupal paths you specified?

I was having the same problem. This is what worked for me (sort of):

Path Location Files Size Explorable
ftp sites/default/files/ 8 308.92 KB Yes

So in this example, I used "ftp" for the Drupal Path and "sites/default/files" for the File System Directory. I was using a "/" or "\" after the Drupal Path initially which was causing problems (i.e. "ftp\").

Now I can view my file listing by going to www.mysite.com/ftp.

Displaying contents of directory sites/default/files/
Name Size
logo.png 131.35 KB

My new problem, however, is that when I click on the filename link, the link tries to go to "http://www.mysite.com/sites/default/files/%252Flogo.png".

My questions at this point:

1. Shouldnt the link be pointing to the Drupal Path instead of the File System Directory?

2. Any idea why the %252F is included in the link address?

Thanks.

- I have uploaded to sites/all/modules/filebrowser
- I have enabled filebrowser module
- I have all filebrowser rights to my role

--> No Link ''Administer - Site Configuration - Filebrowser'' !!

Have you any idea ?

What version of Drupal are you running?

sorry - forgotten: Drupal 6.2

I'm going to point you towards this issue: #245408: Filebrowser Modul broken with Drupal 6.2. It seems to be more of where your problem lies. If that change works for you, mark its status as RTBC and I'll get it committed.

Hi,

Disclaimer: Not sure if this works or not by I was able to view/see/access the admin/settings/filebrowser by adding the proceeding code below in the items function part of the code in filebrowser.module:

   'access arguments' => array('access administration pages'),

Somehow this line is missing from the current module, taken from http://drupal.org/node/245408

  $items['admin/settings/filebrowser'] = array(
    'title' => 'Filebrowser',
    'page callback' => 'drupal_get_form',
    'page arguments' => array('filebrowser_admin_settings'),
    'description' => t('Expose file system directories to users'),
      ---Add code above here
    'type' => MENU_NORMAL_ITEM
  );

My drupal version is at 6.2 and the filebrowser module is 6.X-1.1-beta1

So I'm not really sure what's the problem everyone is having in this issue as it seems to have ballooned into everyone just stating this problems. Please open a new issue for any problems you face as I'm closing this.

Also, please submit a descriptive title, "newb help" is actually not helpful at all.
