Hi,

I've been through the documentation and tried as many settings as possible in the plugin parameters and still can't get images to work with CKeditor.

When I click on Browse Server to upload a file there are no files to choose and no folders to browse, a screenshot is attached.

I've tried modifying backend parameters but nothing changes, I must be missing something simple?

I have the same problem!

Hi All,

This typically happens when the file browsers connector.php file does not have permission to be executable.

Please see:

It results in the < Resource Type > not being set and files are not loaded in due to a 500 internal server error.

What to do
Joomla recommend 755 and 0644 for folders and files respectively with suPHP installed running on PHP & MySQL 5+ which gives us a level playing field to work too however, you may be using a different configuration and therefore may need to use 777 for your files?

The point being is that Joomla like our editor needs the folders and files to be read/ writable and the entry points for the browsers (this being the file which your browsers need execute) such as the connector.php file must be read/write and executable.

I would contact your hosting provider and ask them what the correct permission should be for your server.

To read Joomla!'s reply on this matter please see:-
* community.joomla.org/blogs/leadership/51...users-listen-up.html
* docs.joomla.org/Security_and_Performance...ctory_permissions.3F
* docs.joomla.org/Security_Checklist_2_-_H...erver_configurations

Kindest Regards,

Hi - I'm trying to find this connector.php file to check the settings and hopefully solve this problem...

Any idea where I should be looking? I can't see it anywhere!

I'm using Joomla 1.5.22....

Thanks!

Hi Andybon,

Can i ask what version of the editor are you using

I'm still having problems, using v3.4.5 with Joomla 1.5.22.

I've updated the Joomla permissions to be the same as everywhere else in my Joomla installation, UID for me the user and GID is apache.

I haven't been able to find connector.php either, there are so many subdirectories in this plugin

Please could you install version 3.4.6 of the editor.


Note: It needs to be a fresh install and then you will need to clear your browser cache(IE+ FF user: CTRl+SHFT+DEL)

Updated to 3.4.6, updated the permissions as stated before, same problem.

Do I need to set this connector.php to 777 (sounds very unsecure!)??

Sure - I'm on 3.4.6....

Me too...but images folder is "not set" just with 777 permission

I am having the same issue with 2 of my sites... the others are fine, they are on the same server and nothing is different.. I have done the steps above and still nothing. Any ideas.
