Tinymce plugin and OJS 2.4.2 version problem

[wblandon]

Hi all.

I recently migrated of the 2.4.1 to 2.4.2 OJS version. Tinymce plugin not display in all pages to edit text; with 2.4.1 worked OK.

Message: The requested URL /ojs/lib/pkp/lib/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/jbimages/dialog.htm was not found on this server.

OS platform Linux
PHP version 5.4.11
Apache version Apache/2.4.3 (Fedora) OpenSSL/1.0.1c-fips PHP/5.4.11 mod_perl/2.0.7 Perl/v5.16.2
Database driver mysql

Thanks for support.

Hi Walter,

Is /ojs the right path to your OJS installation? If so, could you double-check that the referenced file (lib/pkp/lib/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/jbimages/dialog.htm) exists and is readable by the web server?

Hi Alec.

The file exist in /var/www/html/ojs/lib/pkp/lib/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/jbimages/dialog.htm

And it's redeable: -rwxrwxrwx

Hi Walter,

What happens if you try to fetch that file directly through your browser?

Hi Walter,

Can you clarify where you see the message you quote? ("Message: The requested URL /ojs/lib/pkp/lib/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/jbimages/dialog.htm was not found on this server.")

Hi Alec.

For example in "Edit Metadata" pages, "Journal Management > Journal Setup" page or "Site Administration > Site Settings" page

Hi Walter,

Is the base_url correctly configured in your config.inc.php file?

Hi Alec.

Yes:
base_url = "http://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co"

In Apache httpd.conf file:
ServerName publicaciones.eafit.edu.co
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/ojs

Hi Walter,

I suspect that lib/pkp/lib/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/jbimages/integratePKP.php is getting the wrong pathname to your installation (try wrapping another dirname(...) around the existing list). However, none of this code changed between OJS 2.4.1 and 2.4.2, so I'm not sure why an upgrade from OJS 2.4.1 would cause this.

Hi Alec.

In integratePKP.php file, I eliminated once dirname sentence and plugin appears again:

$this->baseDir = dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']))))))))));

I think that is a particular case with own OJS. We install OJS 2.4.2 Full Package option because we had problems to upgrade from 2.3.7 to 2.4.1 version using patch.


Thanks for all your support.

I have a similar problem with OJS 2.4.2 and the combo TinyMCE/JBImages. I have performed a clean OJS 2.4.2 install. I put 2.4.2 in a folder with a unnecessary long name. Let's call it 'folderwithaunnecessarylongname'. But my url became something like http://www.url.com/index.php/folderwith ... urnalname/. So, I decided to put the complete install in the webfolder and eliminate the 'folderwithaunnecessarylongname'. My url became http://www.url.com/index.php/journalname/ but I lost the JBImages upload functionality. The JBI icon was missing in the interface. The placeholder contained a link that still included a path with the 'folderwithaunnecessarylongname'. After emptying my browser's cache I lost TinyMCE altogether. I had to recreate the path including 'folderwithaunnecessarylongname' and copy in this folder all associated TinyMCE files to get it functioning again. JBImages refuses to upload still. Before worrying about the latter I would like to solve the path problem first. Is there a file somewhere where the initial path is stored? Is there an option to delete TinyMCE and reinstall?

Hi gemusehandler,

Have you flushed your file cache (all files in cache/)? There is generally a TinyMCE cache that may be affected by your move.

Hi Alec, before I do what I think you are saying, I want to be sure.
You seem to suggest I go to the OJS installation folder,
open the "cache" folder and trash the countless files I find there,
true or false?

Hi gemusehandler,

Yes; you can also do this through the Site Administrator's interface.
