I upgraded from EE 2.4 to 2.5, enabled the Rich Text Editor, and set up a custom field to use it, but the add/edit form only shows a standard textarea. I tred changing an existing field and setting up a completely new field, and it doesn’t work in either case.

I have Wygwam installed; is there a conflict? Are there any dependencies?

v2.5.0 - Build Date: 20120507

Update: my site’s on Apache with PHP 5.3.5.

I am also not seeing the RTE when editing entries in the Control Panel after upgrading from 2.4 to 2.5.  I have enabled the add-on and also changed the fields type.  I am still just seeing a plain text field though.

I am using a windows machine so I am wondering is there is a path issue somewhere with RTE.

I am not using WYGWAM on my setup.  I even tried with no third party modules installed.  Still not showing.

i have been digging through code trying to find this issue.  Must be a pretty minor one as it works perfect on Apache. Any help is appreeciated.

I have been testing this a lot and cannot get RTE to show when hosted on a Windows IIS server.  I am just seeing the plain textarea even though the fieldtype is setup to RTE.  Any helpis appreciated.

Here is the bug report I created for the issue. https://support.ellislab.com/bugs/detail/17885

I forgot to mention I’m on Apache.

I just found this error when debugging on server.

I think we have two sepaate issues Shane.  Looks like mine is a Windows syntax issue in the code somewhere.  Should we open a new post?

My site’s on Apache with PHP 5.3.5.

Hello bgarrant,

No need to open a new thread. I just sent you an email. 😊

The amazing and talented Robin will be taking a look at your set up.

Hey kirkaracha,

Believe it or not, Apache can run on windows. 😊

I just want to make sure that you are on Linux and not Windows.
