Subject: Re: Buttons missing in ckeditor 

Dear Stefan,

thanks for your hints. Meanwhile we already solved the problem. I think it was caused by the recovery from a backup version after the server crash ... and the retirement of the person who did the previous installation.

We found the following things to be faulty:

  1. Somebody linked the "elog/scripts/ckeditor"-directory to "../../javascript/ckeditor" (maybe an independent installation of ckeditor). Due to this the relative path in "ckeditor/config.js" to "../ckeditor-config.js" could not be correctly resolved to be "elog/scripts/ckeditor-config.js". Now we put the absolute path.
  2. Furthermore the owner of all files in the elog directory was set to root:root with read access only for root. We changed them now to root:elog and gave read acess for everybody.

Now everything works as expected.

I'm sorry for inconvenience,

Thanks and best regards,

Roland

Have you selected "HTML" encoding (below the main message box). The HTML editor is not activated if you have "plain" text encoding. Did you try the default elogd.cfg file? If you modified the config file and did a mistake there, the program can for example not properly find all directories. Also makse sure you did a full install with "make install", not just update the executable.

Hello everybody,

we had to setup a new server for our elog some time ago because the old one crashed. We are now running version ELOG V3.1.1-0767eb0.

In the previous installation we had these nice buttons for file upload, time stamp and equation editor, which are also available here in the online version.

I already found that in the installation directory ("/usr/local/elog/") there exists a directory "scripts" containing a file "ckeditor-config.js", which also contains the lines:
"config.extraPlugins = 'timestamp,dndfiles,eqneditor,fileupload';" and "{ name: 'insert', items: [ 'Image', 'Table', 'HorizontalRule', 'Smiley', 'SpecialChar', 'PageBreak', 'FileUpload', 'Timestamp', 'EqnEditor' ] },"

These plugins seem to be available in the subdirectory "scripts/ckeditor/plugins/". But why are they not loaded? Is it just a version issue? Or something else?

It would be nice to get a hint.

Best regards,

Roland
