Hi. I am running D5.7 with tinyMCE 5.x-1.9 and I need to enable the rich text editor on a block configure pager.
In the visibility settings I set "Show only on listed pages" (wich is the defautl) and I have added the line

*/admin/build/block/*

After this if I try to open the link to configure a block, the browser hangs on loading showing a blank page with the link "disable rich text", and the page does not display. I am attaching an image.
The editor works correctly only when creating a new block. Then if I try to edit it, same problem.
The problem seems to be present only on Firefox2/3 (even epiphany wich is however Gecko based)
Not on IE7... howerv probably IE7 is the wrong behaviour :)

I'm getting exactly the same problem, have you found a way around this yet?

Nope, Unfortunately not yet... so I had to renounce using it in the block edit page

Exact same problem. Interestingly enough, this isn't an issue on the create page.

I *think* it might have something to do with the extra arguments in the url, like the TinyMCE editor is having problems with /* refering to multiple children. I wonder if */admin/build/block/*/*/* would work...

No time to test, disabling this feature as well.

Similar problem w/ nodewords: http://drupal.org/node/249665. Unfortunately I do not see a way to disable via this technique, so just turning off Tiny for all blocks...

I'm having the same problem with Drupal 5.10. I think it worked for earlier 5 releases, probably around 5.2, however other things have changed with the site so that may not the deciding factor.

Visibility for TinyMCE is set to "Show on every page except the listed pages." Adding block to the list works as expected but I'd like to have WYSIWYG editting enabled.

I sure would too. I have enabled other WYSIWYG modules to work on that page, so it's definitely a conflict between TinyMCE and the new Block module. Running into the infinite redirect makes it difficult for non-expert to debug though (since we don't get any browser information).

I had the same problem.
I got around it by setting the visibility to:

Only show on the listed pages:
node/*
user/*
comment/*
admin/build/block/*

Hope this helps

The problem with that solution is that now, when you edit a block, you won't be able to see the tinyMCE editor, you'll just get a bunch of html. For an experienced user, this is not a problem, for an inexperienced user, this can be quite disconcerting.

I'm experiencing the same problem... When I disable Javascript I can edit the block... So I assume this is a problem with the javascript?
