IMCE does not seem to work with a multisite setup [#87672]

I have a single drupal installation running two different sites. This is done by making a seperate folder in the sites folder for each domain and putting in a settings.php file. IMCE no longer works with a multisite setup. The browse icon is present but when I click on it the window pops up and I get "Directory Error!".

This installation of IMCE was working before I converted to a multisite setup, and it still works on other installation I have that are not multisite.

is your file system path writable by php. check it at admin/settings under file system settings.

Yes, I was using it successfully as a single instance install prior to encountering this.

permissions are:

I'm working with 4.7.x and multisite configuration too (one active site for now). My tinymce and imce are in drupal/sites/site.name/modules and the site is in subfolder (ex: http://localhost/drupal/). 'Hacking' imce_set.js a bit helped: I changed

&nbsp;&nbsp;var imcePopup = window.open(tinyMCE.baseURL.substring(0, tinyMCE.baseURL.indexOf('modules')) 'index.php?q=imce/browse', '', 'width=560, height=440, resize=0');

  var sitebase = tinyMCE.baseURL.substring(0, tinyMCE.baseURL.indexOf('/sites/'));
  var imcePopup = window.open(sitebase + '/?q=imce/browse', '', 'width=560, height=440, resize=0');

which obviously will not work if you installed tinymce in drupal/modules. Maybe checking for '/modules/' and checking which one exists could solve the problem for everyone, like this:

  var sitebase = '';
  var idx_sites = tinyMCE.baseURL.indexOf('/sites/');
  var idx_modules = tinyMCE.baseURL.indexOf('/modules/');
  if (idx_sites != -1) { // .../sites/my.site/modules/...
    sitebase = tinyMCE.baseURL.substring(0, idx_sites);
  } else if (idx_modules != -1) { // .../modules/...
    sitebase = tinyMCE.baseURL.substring(0, idx_modules);
  } else {
    alert('Can not detect site base url');
  }
  var imcePopup = window.open(sitebase + '/?q=imce/browse', '', 'width=560, height=440, resize=0');

I'm attaching a patch for the last one.

thank you for the patch. i think getting the right url with javascript for all configurations is not possible since one may setup drupal under sub directories like domain.com/modules or domain.com/sites. that's why searching for these words is not sufficient. i think this URL thing should be set by php. may be a javascript variable refering to url('imce/browse'). i'll look into this.
thanks again.
