Broken images in Events, Photo Album, News, Blog entries

eVenster · February 2015

Hi,

I've tested some modules in 2.3.3 and i see that all images on a page are broken when viewing the entries of one of these modules: Events, Photo Album, News, Blog.
For example:
(also: not very friendly url) is looking for the following image:

which it of course doesn't find. To be clear: not just the images included in the entry, but all the images on the page (i.e. images in a text module on the same page where one of these other modules are placed). Is this a known problem or do i have a specific thing going on?

I've tried this on several different 2.3.3 sites and don't have any issues...sometimes the src is tacked onto the url, but shouldn't be?

* Do you possible have some custom views?
* Do you have a custom router_maps.php in your theme?

As far as the image, looks like it's using a relative path instead of an absolute one

That router_map was there initially (on a new installed exponent), but I removed it and the problem is still there. I've tested one freshly installed 2.3.3 and one upgraded from an older version; that one didn't have a router_map and also has the problem

That's what I thought (about the relative/absolute). And no: no custum views or router maps

The 'shipped' router_maps.php is all commented out. On all my sites I run with them on to make for much shorter urls like

for the pseudo blog/show/title/friendly_url

You might try looking at the 'overrides.php' file in the root folder. It is only created on the initial installation and in most cases can have all the 'defines' commented out, but is/can be used set PATH_RELATIVE (which normally would simply be '/')

No luck in the overrides file. on or off, no difference

Something else is 'wrong': the traditional editor gives a blank

Can it be that it's due to a php version on the server?

In the "old' site: yes, they worked before, new site: there wasn't a before.
There are no custom editor settings

I don't know what you mean with:

* The 'relative path' to the images is stored in the database 'directory' field of the expFiles table, which would normally be 'files/' to which the 'filename' field is added for a full 'relative path'

PHP version shouldn't make a difference.

* Did the images work correctly in the past?

* The 'relative path' to the images is stored in the database 'directory' field of the expFiles table, which would normally be 'files/' to which the 'filename' field is added for a full 'relative path'

* Do you show any javascript errors on the page (see the browser console)

* It might be possible to crash the editor if you are using some odd settings in a custom WYSIWYG editor configuration (e.g., bad custom plugin, skin, etc..)

Fire up the database manager (Exponent menu, Super-Admin tools, Database, Manage Database), view the expFiles table, then click on Select data' to view the table data...the 'directory' field should NOT begin with a slash, That's how they were stored in 0.9x and in 2.x.

This may be a fruitless effort, but I'm racking my brain...I haven't done a 'migration' in years and can't (personally) verify the code still works correctly.

It's not a migration from a 0.9x, but a migration from 2.3.1 tot 2.3.3 and the other one is a new install

Sorry, working two separate issues and both sides of my brain melted together

. So the images worked in 2.3.1, but not 2.3.3?

Got a little further: it only happens with sef's on
both sites

So: I have images now, but no sef's
And the traditional editor won't show up. The tiny does, but I still get some errors:
Resource interpreted as Script but transferred with MIME type text/html: "". index.php:137
GET 404 (Not Found) index.php?action=edit&id=1&controller=blog&src=@random550c586c7d132:1
InitDragDrop2.js:320

Message explanations:

* Resource interpreted... this is a normal message because we are sending javascript file output through the php processor.
* GET...(Not Found) - that stylesheet should be auto-created/compiled from the corresponding .less file whenever the page is loaded???
* Exponent doesn't use or refer to an InitDragDrop2.js file, so not sure what it is, or if it doesn't crash the page (remaining javascript code on the page)
