Install TinyMCE module on Drupal

I'm just choose Drupal to be CMS for my new site. Nothing more than google tell me that it win 2007 Open Source CMS Award :) so just try it.

Creating content with drupal is easy but if you want to add image, WYSIWYG editor, you need to install third party module. This post is about how i get this feature for my site.

1. Download TinyMCE WYSIWYG Editor[this will enable the TinyMCE editor to be used with Drupal]
you will get file name tinymce-5.x-1.9.tar.gz. Extract it into Drupal modules folder you will get modules/tinymce.
2. Download TinyMCE engine and you will get tinymce_3_0_1.zip. Again extract into tinymce folder from step one. Now you have modules/tinymce/tinymce.
3. Enable TinyMCE module by go to Administer->Site building->Modules TinyMCE should be at the bottom of the page. Enable it.
4. Grant permission to user role by go to Administer->User management->Access control[I'm check only authenticated user]
5. Create new profile by goto Administer->Site Configutation->TinyMCE and click create new profile.
Under basic setup, enter profile name, check Roles allowed to use this profile and set Default State to enable.
Under Buttons and plugins, check it all.
That's it. now when create content you will see TinyMCE toolbar below body textarea.


Note: I can't get enable/disable rich-text toggle link to work that why I set default state to enable. My System info is Drupal 5.7, tinymce-5.x-1.9 and Firefox 2.0.0.12.

You cannot use TinyMCE 3 with Drupal 5. Please read the install files ... TinyMCE 2.1.3 is required.

'newalises' command take long time to update and finish with error below.

Too many open files

Last week tomcat log file report many error about "Too many open files" when it has high traffic. Some in catalina_log say 2007-04-07 16:13:40 HttpProcessor[80][272] Starting background thread 2007-04-07 16:13:40 HttpConnector[80] accept: java.net.SocketException: Too many open files and here is from localhost_log 2007-04-07 16:13:40 StandardWrapperValve[myservlet]: Servlet.service() for servlet myservlet threw exception java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/log/mylog_070407.log (Too many open files) This is because too many file descriptors're opened by tomcat. File descriptor can be limited in both system level and shell level. To check maximum number of fd in system type 'cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max'. In my case it is 65536(someone said it should set to 200000). Tomcat error when try to open socket number 272 so I think 65536 is ok for me for now. Anyway if u want to set it add 'fs.file-max = 200000' to /etc/sysctl.conf pnix@pnix-a7:~$ cat /proc/sys/fs/fil

using Class.getResource() load resource file in Eclipse

There are many ways to load resource file in java app. What sun recommended is using Class.getResource(" resource_name ") or Class.getResourceAsStream(" resource_name ") then you will get URL and InputStream respectively. If resource_name is specified without "/", it will be prepend with Class package. So resource file must be in same place[folder structure] as the Class. What I love to do is call getResource() with "/" and put resource file at the root of package. This way i can have separate resource folder. below is in Eclipse, 1. From Package explorer right click src folder->click import 2. In import dialog, Choose General->File System ->next 3. from directory:->Browse to your resource folder. 4. to folder:-> I add "resource" as a folder name under src folder. then click "Finish". In the code, load resource with this.getClass().getResource("/resource/buttons1.png") or this.getClass().getResourceAs
