Full Version: Images not showing

Hi, downloaded and installed 1.7, looks great so far but can't get images to show in either the editor or on the page.

I can see that the images are uploading to the server but they won't display.

If I try to browse to them using the full URL I get 403 Forbidden.

I've tried using full and short URLs when inserting within the editor, no joy.

I'm sure it's something simple. Any ideas?
No ideas yet, but there is one thing you could check first. Go to the 'Website Health Check' under 'Support' on your admin panel. Here you could check the 'Directory Permissions' and '.htaccess Existance' part. A wrong setting at either of them could mess up access rights.

Others have had problems with tinyMCE and images. You might want to take a look at that topic. I'm not sure whether all things discussed there have been fixed for the current release so double checking wouldn't hurt.
The 403 error makes me believe it is a missing 'allow' htaccess file in the images directory.
Thanks for your replies.

Website Health Check reports everything okay, no errors with permissions or htaccess.

htaccess in uploads dir as follows:

Allow from all

<Files *.xls>
ForceType applicaton/octet-stream
</Files>

<Files *.csv>
ForceType applicaton/octet-stream
</Files>
