Joomla Updating Woes

Categories: Uncategorized



I’ve stumbled into this problem a couple of times. I solved it a couple of times too. But couldnt quite remember about it. This time I’m making sure it doesnt bother me in the future.

I went into the admin panel, tried to update a content, when I clicked the html button on the wysiwyg, tinymce, (to view the html of the content of course), there’s a fucking blank screen. with {$lang_about_title} as its title. What the hell? Maybe an outdated version, I thought to myself. Went to tinymce website, downloaded and updated it. Still the friggin think appears blank.

This requires readings from the trusty oracle, Mr Google. Oh kind sir! Help thy humble student search thou vast wisdom for an answer to thy question! My vision starts to blur, my back starts to hurt, and there it is. The answer!

the address entered at the url box must be the same as the configuration that was set in $mosConfig_live_site in configuration.php or else it’ll break the wysiwyg editor.

Another journey ended with headache, backache and an empty stomach. To the BAT MOBILE, HUNT FOR FOOOD!
