Storing images in DB works fine in VS, error on IIS

Reply Quote

Hi,

I followed the instructions to store images in DB. it is working ok in dev environment, but in testing environment (IIS6) it is giving me the " CuteEditor needs read/write permission" error.

This is the way that I set the properties for the editor

txtEditor.Setting["CuteEditorFileStorageType"] = typeof(SqlFileStorage).AssemblyQualifiedName;
txtEditor.Setting["DownFile"] = ResolveUrl("~/DownFile.Aspx");
txtEditor.SetSecurityGalleryPath("/");

In dev env, i can store and upload images and view the dynamic images from db. In IIS, i cannot upload any files from image upload or galery. Any ideas?

Error is:

An unhandled exception occurred:

Message: CuteEditor needs read/write permission to the system temp folder. If your host doesn't allow such access, you can specify a different path by adding an entry to your Web.config file. <add key='CuteEditorTempPath' value='/mydirectory' />

Hi Adam,

I added the key to appSettings node, still getting below error on IIS, but working fine in VS.

An unhandled exception occurred:

Hi Adam,

CuteEditorTemp directory exists on the server and asp.net user has read/write access.

Still getting same error.

My client is waiting for this to approve the website so that we can buy the license.

Please help.

Hi Adam,

I managed to fix the problem by giving full control to Network Service account on CuteEditorTemp directory.

Thanks for your help.

I have the same problem, but giving full control is not a valid option as for as security is concern,

Adams,

Please take a look , what is wrong with this new version. old one was working great and it is working on local as well.

I am getting emails from my visitors now.

Thanks,

Try the steps below.

1. Create a folder under your project and name it "CuteEditorTemp"; make sure ASPNET account has write permission to the above folder.

2. Open your web.config and add the following entry:

I found that the problem on 1&1 hosted service is that you must use real server file paths.

1.) The \temp directory needs to be off the route directory of your web site.

2.) CuteEditor uses the web.config file in the route directory.

3.) After you haver created the \temp directory and assigned full premissions to network service and users, run this piece of code to get actual path:

Partial Class _Default

Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init

Dim FILENAME As String = Server.MapPath("\temp")

Me.TextBox1.Text = FILENAME

End Sub

End Class

4.) Use the path returned from the above code as follows in web.config:

</appSettings>
