I am trying to use the file locations configured in the 'Configruation/Security/Default.config' file.

 

The problem is that unless i programmatically configur both the ImageGalleryPath and the MaxImageSize then the cute editor window will display the message "The area you are attempting to access is forbidden." when i try to upload any files.

 

For reference here is the code that I am currently using that works:

 

And here is the code that I want to work that is not:

 

editor.ID = "ABSTRACT"
editor.Text = ABSTRACT
editor.FilesPath = "CuteEditor_Files"
editor.Draw() 

 

Note also that I have confirmed that the default.config file is being used (if you specify the unwanted values) by modifying the maximum document size.

Note also that I am also forbidden from uploading documents(and all other file types) unless the ImageGalleryPath and MaxImageSize values are specified programmatically.

1. Can you post the ImageGalleryPath Setting in Default.config?

 

2. Is your site online so you can provide a testing URL?

 

3. Can you try the following code?

 

 

All of our cute editor windows that allow file upload are in the admin section of the site which is password protected. I tried the code from above and am still get a "The area you are attempting to access is forbidden" message in the pop up window when you try to upload any files.

 

here is a copy of the default.config file I have made a couple modifications to use larger sizes and differnt paths but note that it did not fucntion under the default configuration either (yes each of these folders exists and if the image gallerypath is programmatically specified I am able to upload items to the /UserFiles/Media folder (or any of the other folders) even though it is not programmatically specified:

So this issue is not caused by the code that programmatically change the ImageGalleryPath.

 

Have you disabled the session in your application?

 

Can you download the latest build then try again?

I'm getting a similar issue. We're using CuteEditor in a section of our site that is password-protected. I'm getting the same exact error detailed in this thread from the .NET forum.

 

Is there a fix for the ASP Classic version of CuteEditor? I couldn't find anything that looked similar.

 

I'm using 6.6...just downloaded it yesterday.

 

It's not a secure environment, just password-protected so that it's not accessible by the Internet Guest User account. Is there a way to disable the Flash uploader and try the iframe uploader instead, or is that not a feature on the ASP Classic version?

 

I found two copies of include_Security.asp, one in Dialogs and one in Dialogs/Tag. They're identical except for one line. What should I change?

 

Thanks.

Both.

Yes, you can use iframe mode by setting the uploader UploadType property to Iframe.

 

cuteeditor_files/Dialogs/aspuploader/resources/coreimpl.js

 

and changed "Auto" to "Iframe".

 

Since the iframe uploader is an intentional feature, and since it seems like lots of people need it to overcome permissions problems with the Flash uploader, an I might suggest you make this a configuration option. Having to dig around in a minified JavaScript file to change this is a bummer. Thanks.
