FCK editor: Error creating folder (Can´t create dirtctory)

Post by stigfriis » Sun Mar 01, 2009 10:27 pm

When I try to install FCK editor under cmsimple I keep on getting the message:

Error creating folder (Can´t create directory), when I am using the image editor.

I have tried to install the same but under a subfolder. Here it works perfect.
What can I do?

I have tried the FCK board, But it didn’t get me any ware.

in any case it would be good to create the folders manually
The editor tries to create the folders when they do not exist

why don't you create the folders manually using FTP and giving the correct file permissions (as described in the manual)?

If you really read the manual, you will find the information that there exist some uploads-files which you can rename at the server and test the upload.
These testfiles give you correct information which directories are needed or need correct permissions

after testing please rename back the files or delete them from the server

I had followed the instructions as in the manual, made the folders and giving the right permissions.
Again: I have tried to install the same but under a subfolder. Here it works perfect. This I have tried several
Places.
You refer to instructions about test folder upload. Where do I find it.? It’s not in the standard manual

It is there, why did I write a manual if you do not read it??? :shock:

Manual: page 10 of 12:
Troubleshooting
 To test whether it is possible to upload files with FCKeditor, you can use
testfiles, which are part of the package and which are uploaded to your
service together with the editor-files:
test.html and uploadtest.html
These files sit in the folder \FCKeditor\editor\filemanager\connectors
but because of security, are renamed to txt-files:
test.html.txt and uploadtest.html.txt
Rename them back and test:
if you are not logged in in CMSimple, they will not work, if you are logged in
and they still don’t upload files, you will get clear notices why the upload
failed.
I wrote this manual to answer all questions, I did not write to read it to everybody out there.... that is your part;=(

:( I’m sorry if I am Dum. But I my English is not so god and it take a long time to read and write when its technical.
After several try outs, I succeed with the testupload.
I get the message:
Warning: apache_lookup_uri() [function.apache-lookup-uri]: Unable to include '/cmsimple/images/file/' - error finding URI in /usr/home/web/web2xxxxx/FCKeditor/editor/filemanager/connectors/php/io.php on line 167


Here It say:
// This function is available only for Apache
if ( function_exists( 'apache_lookup_uri' ) )
{
167----------- $info = apache_lookup_uri( $path ) ;
return $info->filename . $info->path_info ;
