FCKeditor problems, so installed TinyMCE and it's worse

[metoo]

We were having problems with FCKeditor errors when browsing the server for an image file.  In the forum I found that this is a problem that can't be fixed and it suggested downloading tinyMCE and installing it...well then things got worse. 

I downloaded and tried to install the zipped tinyMCE file through the admin control panel as recommeneded  but then got the error: Template Error: set_root: /home/domain/public_html/templates//templates is not a directory.
Halted.

Now I can't even access the control panel to do anything. The front end seems to be ok but before I mess that up too - Help! What does this mean?  How do I fix it?  Thanks for help in advance.

I've never used it, but it looks like the path is wrong...

/home/domain/public_html/templates//templates

...so somewhere you have "/templates" as a setting that perhaps should be blank?

Hello,

The problems with not able to browse images with fckeditor are caused from your server config. Wich PHP version is running on your server?

Maybe the server config is also the reason why you have such a misterious path ...templates//templates... as error message.

as a first step you should login to your database (with phpmyadmin) and check the settings table. As wysiwyg editor try to switch back to "fckeditor" and as default theme you should use "wb_theme".

I think you use the latest WB 2.8.1 version, or did you use another WB version?

The host is hostgator, I can't seem to find the php version anywhere.  I think it's 5.  Yes, using WB 2.8.1.  I changed back to fckeditor and wp_theme  in phpmyadmin but still getting the same error.  Why would the path change on it's own?  Is there somewhere in the db that I can change the path?  If so, where and how do I do that?  I am still getting the error:
Template Error: set_root: /home/chaamp/public_html/templates//templates is not a directory.
Halted.
and can't even get into the admin after changing the editor back to fckeditor in the database

Contacted the host about this and apparently they had installed afirewall that started this whole problem.  But now I don't know how to fix it since I've done some things trying to fix it (above) and now have no access to the admin area.  Grrrrrr  The error logs in the admin directory are now saying:

[25-Feb-2011 11:37:45] PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '//etc/ixed/ixed.4.4.lin' - //etc/ixed/ixed.4.4.lin: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
[25-Feb-2011 11:37:45] PHP Warning:  Zend Optimizer for PHP 5.2.x cannot be found (expected at '/usr/local/Zend/lib/Optimizer-3.2.2/php-5.2.x/ZendOptimizer.so') - try reinstalling the Zend Optimizer in Unknown on line 0

I'm not sure what to do here...should I just reinstall the whole thing? 

Thanks anyone!

I had the same problem after installing CKEditor.

Usually I install modules via Backend, but this time I uploaded the module and used »install.php« from modules/advanced. After that my backend was gone! And then, there was a much bigger shock as i found that my frontend was gone as well.

I found that some database entries in settings table where deleted:

• default_template
• page_extension
• page_spacer
• pages_directory
• page_extension
• media_directory
• wbmailer_routine
• server_email
• default_theme

... and some more I think.

After inserting the default_template, my backend was back an I could insert the other missing entries.
