FCKedtior is not loaded when running in IIS

Seems like FCKeditor is not loaded when running from IIS. Debugging via the Visual Studio is OK, the FCKeditor is loaded and fully functional.

I have created a VWG form with the FCKeditor control, compiled it and stored the DLL in the IIS bin folder, created a asp.net which contains the VWG project.

So my IIS structure is as follow:

\form1.aspx (has the VWG formbox and assembly info)

\bin\form1.dll

\FCKeditor\

Running form1.aspx from IIS loads all VWG controls and the form functions OK but the FCKeditor control is not visible. I guessed it couldn't find the \FCKeditor\ folder. Tried moving the \FCKeditor\ folder to \bin\FCKeditor\ with no luck.

I've tried changing the VWG project, setting the fckeditor1.BasePath property to FCKeditor\ , ~\FCKeditor\ with no success too.

Please advice.

Thanks,

Asaf

Re: FCKedtior is not loaded when running in IIS

Hi Asaf,

I found the bug and it is caused because the BasePath returns a default value that starts with a "/" that causes the url to be from the root which will work in a root domain but will not work in a virtual directory. To make it work you can either change the code of the base path to:

[ DefaultValue( "/FCKeditor/" ) ]
public string BasePath
{
          get
          {
                    if (mstrBasePath == null)
                    mstrBasePath = System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["FCKeditor:BasePath"];

                    return (mstrBasePath == null ? "../../../../../FCKeditor/" : mstrBasePath);
          }
          set { mstrBasePath = value; }
}

Or you can set the BasePath to "../../../../../FCKeditor/" after initializing the control.

Cheers,
Guy
