Did a clean 4.9 install on Win Vista / SQLserver Express
After some tweaking, got it working, however, canvas editing does not work. It gives me the page with dotted border but clicking in it does not work. Traced it and it seems the following file is missing:
The same goes for the Media section. The right pane says "You are here:Media", below it, a 'loading' image (rotating circle) keeps rotating. Tracing the page informs me the the following file is missing:
Is there any particular reason that you're interested in the Canvas functionality? I'm thinking if you're having a client that has a specific request about support for this kind of content editing?
Personally I'm not a big fan of this feature and I've never seen such a function work properly in any of the CMS'es I've worked on.
However when that is said...Have you made sure that your website content is wrapped inside a <form runat="server"> tag? This is step 1 in order to have this working.
I'm not particular interested in the canvas editing, but since it didn't work, and some files are simply not on the system I assumed something was wrong in the install. I now did a new install of 4.8. The files seem to be there, but still canvas is not working. Maybe because of a missing form-tag.
I'll stick to 4.8 for know since I think 4.9 is buggy and incomplete.
I also had the same problem with 4.9. After noticing the missing .js file I copied the ItemEditing folder from the source files (path: UmbracoCms.Source.4.9.0\umbraco_09f5a69cf19e\src\Umbraco.Web.UI\umbraco\LiveEditing\Modules\ItemEditing) to the web server and now everything works fine.
clean 4.9 install: edit in canvas does not work
Hi,
Did a clean 4.9 install on Win Vista / SQLserver Express
After some tweaking, got it working, however, canvas editing does not work. It gives me the page with dotted border but clicking in it does not work. Traced it and it seems the following file is missing:
http://umbraco.local:88/umbraco/LiveEditing/Modules/ItemEditing/ItemEditing.js
Indeed, that file is not there.
Is the 4.9 zip incomplete?
The same goes for the Media section. The right pane says "You are here:Media", below it, a 'loading' image (rotating circle) keeps rotating. Tracing the page informs me the the following file is missing:
http://umbraco.local:88/base/FolderBrowserService/GetChildren/-1?_=1347893514556
There's in fact no 'base' folder whatsoever.
Please help!
Thanks

Thanks Jan,

Dear Sutur,
I also had the same problem with 4.9. After noticing the missing .js file I copied the ItemEditing folder from the source files (path: UmbracoCms.Source.4.9.0\umbraco_09f5a69cf19e\src\Umbraco.Web.UI\umbraco\LiveEditing\Modules\ItemEditing) to the web server and now everything works fine.
