MIGX Troubleshooting

Been using MIGX successfully on 2.2.0pl2 but now I've run into an issue on a new site in development.

First, the specs:

Error Report: Empty
MODx Version: 2.2.0-pl2 (Traditional)
Database Type: mysql
Database Version: 5.1.56-log
PHP: 5.3.8

Everything work thus far. Created the following template variables for use with MIGX:

slideshow (migx) - assigned to Home Page template
slideshowlink (Resource List) - assigned to no template
slideshowimage (Image) - assigned to no template
slideshowtitle (Text) - assigned to no template
slideshowdescription (Text) - assigned to no template

When I go to the Template Variables tab of a page that use the Home Page template I can see the empty MIGX grid (since I haven't populated it yet) and I an click Add Item.

The problem happens when I click Add Item. The MIGX box pops up and is stuck in a perpetual Loading cycle and never shows the fields we need to edit.

For my slideshow template variable i have this for Form Tabs:

[
{"caption":"Slideshow", "fields": [
{"field":"slideshowimage","caption":"Image","inputTV":"slideshowimage"},
{"field":"slideshowtitle","caption":"Heading","inputTV":"slideshowtitle"},
{"field":"slideshowdescription","caption":"Description","inputTV":"slideshowdescription"},
{"field":"slideshowlink","caption":"Link","inputTV":"slideshowlink"}
]}
]

And this for Grid Columns:

[
{"header": "Image", "width": "500", "sortable": "false", "dataIndex": "slideshowimage", "renderer": "this.renderImage"},
{"header": "Heading", "width": "500", "sortable": "false", "dataIndex": "slideshowtitle"},
{"header": "Description", "width": "500", "sortable": "false", "dataIndex": "slideshowdescription"},
{"header": "Link", "width": "100", "sortable": "true", "dataIndex": "slideshowlink"}
]

I am just wondering if I'm suffering from missing something obvious.

One thing I did notice is that I can't see the "File System" listed for Media Sources in the manager unless I double click that area.

Another thing to note is I have 3 contexts in addition to the web context and I'm attempting this in a context other than the web context.

Any input would be great.

try this for debugging:
before trying to add an item
activate firebug on firefox
clear the firebug-console

click 'add item'
copy the response in the firebug-console and paste it here.

I was getting the same thing on an upgrade from Revo 2.1.5 to 2.2, but removing the MIGx and uploading and installing the MIGx 2.0 beta via package manager fixed that problem. A few relatively minor bugs, but at least it's usable.

Thanks. This is a fresh install of 2.2.0-pl2 and the new MIGX. We did have an initial problem where we couldn't install any packages so the host had to disable MOD_Security.

The Firebug console report is interesting. connector.php is definitely in the path listed (note I have changed the name of the tvs after trying a refresh and am using headlineimage,headlinetitle,headlinecopy):

This appears twice. I've also changed the domain reference to domain.com to protect the client's identity etc., and so forth.

seems http://domain.com/assets/components/migx/connector.php doesn't exist there?

what do you get, when you copy this address directly into your browser?

I get

{"success":false,"message":"Access denied.","total":0,"data":[],"object":[]}

I can see the file is there if I FTP into the site. I can download it to my local drive and open it, directly off the place where the server says it doesn't exist. I even changed permissions on it to make it wide open.
Very strange that it can't be found.

I can add that I can also navigate to it and open it in the Manager.

Page not found, and the same error in Firebug:

NetworkError: 404 Not Found - http://thedomainwereusing.com/assets/components/migx/connector.php

When I do it on another installation I get a blank page and no reports in Firebug.

I'm having the server configuration looked at. The file is there but for some reason it cannot be processed through HTTP. Tried it on the Captcha component as well and get the same result. Though we can see any .html files such as in the CodeMirror component so at this point it seems to be a configuration problem.

Thanks.

Tried it in the latest Revo nightly. Regular image TV works fine and respects the Media Source assigned to it.

MIGx 2.0 installed from Package Manager and patched from the github download. Doesn't work at all before or after patching. Opens form fields window with no icon to open the file browser.

Form Tabs:

[
{"caption":"Image", "fields":[
    {"field":"image","caption":"Image","inputTV":"pdImg"},
    {"field":"alt","caption":"Alt","description":"Alt tag for the image."}  
]}
]

Grid Columns:

[ 
{"header": "Image", "width": "50", "sortable": "false", "dataIndex": "image","renderer": "this.renderImage"},
{"header": "Alt", "width": "160", "sortable": "true", "dataIndex": "alt"}
]

[edit]Ahah! Put in the form tabs and grid columns from the examples, and it works great. Respects the Media Source, too.
