I spent hours trying to have imagebrowser run. Fckeditor is installed in the Wysiwyg API and runs.
When I want to insert an image, Imageproperties shows, I select Browse server, a new windows appears, titled
http://test_fth/?q=imagebrowser/view/browser&app=FCKEditor, but no content. Only the Administration Dashboard menu on the side show up.

I red through most of the infos, edited the C:\xampp\htdocs\drupal\sites\all\modules\wysiwyg\fckeditor\fckeditor\editor\filemanager\connectors\php\config.php file with no succes and so on. I get the idea that this could be a problem with the paths. I store my images at sites/all/files/images.

If it worked it would be a great tool I need. Please can anybody give me a hint what I could be doing wrong?

Thanks

Does http://test_fth/?q=node/1 work?
Maybe the menu structure wasn't saved properly. Try going to your modules page, scroll the bottom and hit save.

You shouldn't need to change the config.php file.

Let me know how you get on. What browser are you using btw?

Hi Starnox

thanks for fast reply. Sorry I respond late because I'm moving household now.

- http://test_fth/?q=node/1 shows me the first article. Seems ok.

- I did the saving on the module page again, no change.

- I'm using firefox 3.0.1 and IE 7.0.

- I copied back the original config.php. No change, but when I'm using the Built-in filebrowser now, it
says "This connector is disabled. Please check the "editor/filemanager/connectors/php/config.php" file.
That means that this file is used to config the Built-in filebrowser.

Are this settings not used for imagebrowser then?

- In "http://test_fth/admin/settings/fckeditor/edit/Advanced" I configured the File browser settings as:
Path to uploaed files = %f/ (resulting the Current path in: sites/all/files)
Absolute path to uploaded files = %d/%f/ (resulting this Current path in: C:/xampp/htdocs/drupal/sites/all/files)

I store my images in sites/all/files/images. Is that a problem?

- Maybe I use th wrong module versions?

For Image handling I have installed and enabled:
FCKeditor - WYSIWYG HTML editor 6.x-1.3-rc7
Image 6.x-1.0-alpha4
ImageAPI 6.x-1.4
Image Browser 6.x-1.0-beta1
ImageCache 6.x-2.0-beta8
ImageCache Profiles 6.x-1.0
Image Assist 6.x-3.x-dev (2009-Feb-14)
Private Upload 6.x-1.0-rc2
Wysiwyg API 6.x-2.x-dev (2009-Mar-08)

Hopefully my additional informations give you a hint to find out what I'm doing wrong.
It would be great if it worked, cause in the demo it looks very promising.

Thanks for ur advice.

Hi Starnox

I found the problem I had. The administration dashboard module causes the problems. Another user placed an issue
with similar problems using Fckeditor and IMCE browser. I disabled the a-dashboard and imagebrowser works.
I've placed an issue for the Administration Dashboard. Just wanted to inform you.

I had a similar problem but with Firefox. I can't trace it to any particular module as the problem. This module works great in IE 7 on my IIS Drupal 6 site without problems, but getting it to work with FCKeditor and Firefox was challenging.

I ended up rolling back to the previous FCKeditor version and it now works fine in both browsers. Great module!

Hi,
I'm having the same problem initially reported by hpkohsamui. I'm using 6.x-1.0-rc1 of the imagebrowser module.
I'm using the current version of the fckeditor module (6.x-1.4), with version 2.6.4 of fckeditor itself. I've never heard of the Administration Dashboard, and am not using IMCE browser.
Is there a particular version of fckeditor that I'm supposed to be using? Could there be a setting within the fckeditor editor configuration files or in the fckeditor drupalmodule configuration that needs to be (re)set?
Mostly I'm just looking for a way to enable image uploads without having to set absolute filepaths in a configuration file; perhaps this is not the best module for me. I'm not really interested in it being beautiful, just functional and portable across dev/testing/production servers, and able to work with multisite. Can someone suggest another module that would work better?
Thanks

Version: 6.x-1.0-beta1 » 6.x-2.x-dev
Status: Active » Closed (works as designed)

IB won't actively supporting FCKeditor going forward because CKedtior is out now.

Maybe look into another solution?

Cheers
