Hey!

I've an issue with the editor functionality.
Running on an ubuntu 18 server, apache2.

When viewing a file, there is no option to edit.

This persists with both both a customized and an unedited version of the app.

filetype does not seem to matter

I can access/rename/upload/delete all files without issue.
Image previews are working.

Entire directory is set to 755
Entire directory is set to owner/group www-data

$edit_files = true;

Screenshot of what I see when viewing a php file:

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thankyou!

Hi @Delaser ,

Have you tried it with a recent version of TinyFileManager? I am using it on Ubuntu 20.04, Apache and PHP 7.2 and it seems to work perfectly. I am unable to reproduce the issue.

The only change to the downloaded files was to set $use_auth = false in tinyfilemanager.php:

If you made other changes, those might be more relevant.

Best regards,

Michael

Hey!

I ended up having to wipe the server for unrelated reasons and on the new install everything worked flawlessly.
I'm going to assume it was a fault with something else causing conflicts.

Thanks!
