Installed WYSIWYG and the latest TinyMCE 3.2.1 according to instructions, but the icons / buttons on the toolbars are not visible. Moving the cursor over the area where they should be, one sees the button outlines turning grey and clicking on them produces the desired function, but they are not visible and therefore the whole setup is unusable.
Any help would be appreciated. I have looked at the other issues related to this but found no tips that were of any help.
TIA

Do you have JavaScript aggregation enabled? If you have, try disabling it and see whether the bug still occurs to you.

No I don't have JavaScript aggregation enabled.
I am wondering if there is an issue with the latest TinyMCE 3.2.1 download package and if the icons are actually missing in it? I had exactly the same problem with the TinyTinyMCE module and the TinyMCE modules.

Hm. The last version I've tested is 3.2.0.2. It's unlikely, but possible that there may have been changes to the editor configuration in 3.2.1. I'll try to test. Can you confirm that version 3.2.0.2 works for you? (you can download older versions from SourceForge)

Same problem with TinyMCE 3.2.0.2 - so no luck there. Couldn't find anything in the log files either.

Hm. Any strange setup? Drupal running in a sub-directory or on a subdomain maybe? Private files? IIS? Any other speciality?

I've just tested 3.2.1 and all buttons appear fine for me. I even checked whether this could be a language issue. Please also try to disable all buttons/plugins but 2-3 simple ones, f.e. bold, italic, to see whether the editor appears afterwards. Even better, start with a new default wysiwyg profile, don't alter any of the default settings, and just add bold + italic buttons, to see whether the editor works properly with that configuration.

Creating a new input profile and assigning TinyMCE to it in the Wysiwyg setting fixed the problem - many thanks for the tip. Do you have any idea what might have been causing this issue?

There are however still a number of other things that aren't working properly:
- TinyMCE pop-up dialogs (like when clicking on the image icon) bring up a modal mini-browser window with a "page not found" and these windows have no close button and the only way to get rid of them is to close the whole parent browser window.

- the full toolbar shows up no matter which buttons I select in the Wysiwyg settings "buttons & plugin"
- the resize grippie or handle doesn't show up even when checked in Wysiwyg
- the path location doesn't show up even though it is selected in "Editor Appearance"
- setting the button alignment to "Center" doesn't have any effect

It seems that none of the Wysiwyg settings are getting picked up.

My server setting is Suse Linux 10.1 with Apache 2.2 and I have many Drupal web sites running on this setup for over a year without problems. I have been using Firefox on a Mac to view the pages.

The only thing I can think of that might be causing a problem is that I use Linux symlinks at a couple of levels in order to make upgrades easier. I have recently come across scripts that don't handle this properly.

Hope this information helps you isolate some of the issues.

First of all, please only edit comments to correct typos or grammar. Always post new information in a new follow-up.

When you go to the Wysiwyg profile overview at admin/settings/wysiwyg/profile, do you see "TinyMCE 3.2.1" in the select box or just "TinyMCE"? If there is no version info displayed, that means Wysiwyg couldn't detect the version info properly, maybe because of symlinks. Can you test whether this bug is solved if you do not use symlinks for the wysiwyg module directory as well as the editor library folder(s)?

If you could create a screenshot of the wysiwyg profile overview page as well as the profile configuration page for the input format associated with TinyMCE (fieldsets uncollapsed), that may be helpful.

I just got into this problem and finally figured out what is going on. When you create a profile (tinymce 2 or 3 - didn't make a difference), the "Buttons and Plugins" collapsible fieldset is not shown. See the screenshot.

However, you *can* return and edit the profile and "buttons and plugins" will be shown. If you don't return to edit the profile, and select some buttons, there will be no buttons shown on the screen.

@rfay: This bug is already fixed in the latest development snapshot. Consider updating. I believe (and hope) that pban02 filed this issue against the latest development snapshot, not 0.4.

I am using tinymce-3.2.4.1 and drupal-6.2. I found out that enabling Flash is the one makes all the icons disappear. Enabling all icons except Flash works ok for me.
