Can Not Edit Articles in Administrator - Joomla 1.5.15

Installation issues on Earthlink Server –

I have recently installed Joomla on one of my client sites – They have been dealing with Earthlink for over 10 years and do not want to change. The site was moved from a development server so content was updated before the site went live.

Problem: We can not edit any of the articles or post new ones. I have installed Joomla FCK editor and JCE Editor – neither of them work or any other editor. Choosing “No editor” does not allow us to even access html code which I would expect.

Here is a screen shot of what I see when I select any article to edit.

I have checked the path and I am certain that it is correct.
The live site, temp directory and log directory have been double checked.

Any suggestions on permissions would be greatly appreciated.


Here is the current configuration file:

<?php

var $offline = '0';
var $editor = 'jce';
var $list_limit = '20';
var $helpurl = 'http://help.joomla.org';

It appears as if there is a fatal error before the page is finished loading. In order to see the error, you can check the web server error logs or go to Site->Global Configuration-Server and change the "Error Reporting" to maximum. Then try to edit an article. The error message will help isolate the problem.

I set error reporting to maximum. Here is the error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::onDisplay() in /netapp/whnas-silo1-node1/s2/s2/00445/www.integrasystems.org/webdocs/main/lib ... editor.php on line 268

I will try to find answer but any input is welcome. Many thanks. Eric

editor.php line 268:

$resultTest = $plugin->onDisplay($editor);

I know you have tried others but it still sounds like there is a problem with the editor. I too like to use JCE 1.5.6.

After installing the new editors did you go to Site->Global Configuration->Site to use the pull down select box to select the "Default WYSIWYG Editor"?

Hope this helps!

I am totally unsure what to do next. I would probably reinstall Joomla.

It appears that Earthlink changed their server from a Net server to a local server without telling their support staff. If you navagate to your home folder and locate the conf directory the httpd.conf will contain your correct root address. Your software must have that to work.

I have exactly the same error.
Deleted all directories except templates and images and installed 1.5.21 changing to existing database afterwards. Front end looks fine though cannot change or add articles. Http.conf has not changed.
Is there any advice?
