Issue with Editor.css when upgrading site to CMS6 R2

Vote:
 

Hi

We have upgraded a site from CMS6 to CMS6 R2 for a customer and we get the following error when navigating to a page and choosing edit.

"Could not find file 'c:\myprojectpath\styles\Editor.css'

System.IO.FileNotFoundException Could not find file..

I've seen this article
http://world.episerver.com/Blogs/Linus-Ekstrom/Dates/2011/3/Improvements-in-TinyMCE-in-EPiServer-CMS-6-R2/

and have looked at these options:

  • Content CSS path in settings of PropertyXHTMLStringControl.
  • Dynamic property on page UIEditorCSSPaths (could be inherited from parent page).
  • Site settings attribute uiEditorCssPaths.

There are no dynamic properties defined and the uiEditorCssPaths are not set either. I'm not sure what to look for in the first option, but I've removed all external modules and plugins. 

If I copy the Editor.css file from c:\Program files\EPiServer\CMS\6.1.379.0\Application\Util\styles to my projectpath\styles it works fine, but thats not an option.

I can also omit the problem by uncomment these lines in web.config:

<!-- Uncomment the following two lines to get legacy editor in edit mode for PropertyXhtmlString and PropertyLongString-->
<register type="EPiServer.SpecializedProperties.PropertyXhtmlString, EPiServer" mappedType="EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.LegacyPropertyXhtmlStringControl, EPiServer" />
<register type="EPiServer.Core.PropertyLongString, EPiServer" mappedType="EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.LegacyPropertyXhtmlStringControl, EPiServer" />

But then I miss the recent updates to the TinyMCE-editor I guess

From stack trace:

Any ideas?

Hello,

You will find "Content CSS path in settings of PropertyXHTMLStringControl" in admin on each XHTML property under the 'Custom Settings' tab or in the 'Edit Custom Property Types' section and EPiServer.SpecializedProperties.PropertyXhtmlString.

I totally forgot this case. I have to admit that I did a quick fix last time, because it only was a problem in my development environment. I just copied the edit.css-file to the required location.

But now I got the same problem in another project. Why does EPiServer look for the Editor.css file in my project templates? The content CSS path in the PropertyXHTMLStringControl in Admin mode is empty. The "onMouseOver-suggested-paths" are ~/Templates/Public/Styles/glossy/Editor.css.

I don't understand why it looks for the Editor css files in the project paths at all. These files are located in Program files x86\EPiServer ..

Johan Petterssons tip worked for me. I inserted /Templates/Public/Styles/glossy/Editor.css into the property field "Content CSS Path" and then the error disappeared.

I'm a little curious to why this happen though. Seems a bit cumbersome to change this for all xhtml properties.

 

Here is the error I got (note: path have been changed for securityreasons):

Could not find file
'C:\<myproject>\<site>\NOT_A_VALID_FILESYSTEM_PATH'.

Seems like it's still problems to edit dynamic properties. I have changed the property as recommened in previous post on both page properties and dynamic properties. I have also changed the attribute uiEditorCssPaths in Episerver.config to ~/Templates/Public/Styles/glossy/Editor.css but the error above is still there.

Could use some help on this one, if any!? In advance thanks a lot   :)
