Admin domain don't work with WYSIWYG

[Xagone]

on a definbe website, i need a more secure environement.

so, to be secure, i've decide to make a subdomain admin like "http://admin.thedomain.com/ that would be the admin
since i'm on a linux server, it was easy

I've renamed the admin folder like "admin_FgR4I8G" (random name to be unfoundable)
created the sub domain (admin.thedomain.com) and create a "symlink" (symbolic link).

and create the config.php like that :

Code:

define('DB_TYPE', 'mysql');
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'testadmin');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'YuwaxbUS');
define('DB_NAME', 'testadmin');
define('TABLE_PREFIX', '');

define('WB_PATH', dirname(__FILE__));
define('WB_URL', 'http://www.thedomain.com');
define('ADMIN_PATH', WB_PATH.'/admin_FgR4I8G');
define('ADMIN_URL', 'http://admin.thedomain.com');

require_once(WB_PATH.'/framework/initialize.php');

the admin work #1, creating pages, working with all setups etc.

BUT everytime I hit "save" in any module so far, it link back to the admin home page and nothing is saved...
how can we secure the admin ?
the purpose was to make the admin in a ssl environement.

stupidity will be mine!

ok, the problem is ... bizare but understandable.

since I am logged on admin.thedomain.com I am NOT logged on www.thedomain.com !
then when saving, www.thedomain.com say, NOT logged, then redirect me to the admin home page!

the tric i've done, to solve that tiny problem
create a private "admin" page (remember my admin page is renamed)
this page is code only saying "you are now logged at www.thedomain.com"
but is blank, when you go to "admin.thedomain.com" log in then save something, you are logged at www.thedomain.com and it works!

now.. only one thing not working... wysiwyg do not display or work properly... :\

Hello
A little bit confused - have you set the php-error-reporting to "E_ALL & E_STRICT"?
Any messages, any warnings? PHP-Version? WB-Version?
What is not "working" properly? Details? ScreenShoots?

Kind regards
Aldus

[Xagone]

no error whatsoever, just blank wysiwyg

[aldus]

Hm ... and you have select one unter "advanced options" (instead of "none") ...
Hm ... What PHP Version you are using, does other modules work? Also, changing
the backend-theme brings no result?

Kind regards
Aldus

yep, i've update the fckeditor
and selected it from the advances fonctions
i've tried without, it work, so it's a "javascript" dont get to it problem :\

[aldus]

Hm ... Browser? What are the "WebDeveloper-Toolbar" (FF) or "FireBug" (also FF) are "saying",
or warning about? Safari, Opera, IE7 or IE8?

since I am logged on admin.thedomain.com I am NOT logged on www.thedomain.com !
then when saving, www.thedomain.com say, NOT logged, then redirect me to the admin home page!

This is resulting from Session/Cookie handling.
If you login from one URL (admin.thedomain.com) your SessionID(SID) will be saved in a Cookie witch is depending from domain(URL)
If you call www.thedomain.com...  there will no Cookie be found for that URL.. so you doesn't receive any valid SessionID...  find no Session.. and WB will show you the pretty 'not logged in'.

There is no ONE--Click solution to solve this problem.

i've decide to dump the ssl domain idea and make a untracable folder (simething like /Rt3Sk95ioBY6R) with apache protection + wb admin protection

i've found out that in some modules, they used relative file location and that would be an ass to repair.

like the fck problem is in the rendered js, it search for file in a relative position
