Question

The TinyMCE html editor has stopped showing up in my umbraco installtion.
If clicked the html button opens new popup but the content is never loaded.

Chrome gives me:

Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): 
    The server closed the connection without sending any data.

The IIS log gives:

GET /umbraco_client/tinymce3/themes/umbraco/source_editor.htm 
    - 80 - 79.211.65.86 Mozilla/5.0+(Windows+NT+6.1;+WOW64)+AppleWebKit/534.30+
    (KHTML,+like+Gecko)+Chrome/12.0.742.100+Safari/534.30 200 0 0

My experiments showed that content ending in .txt in the same directory is correctly served.
I suspect some kind of error with the rewrite rules.

What I tried:

• Added ~/umbraco_client/ to umbracoReservedPaths
• Renamed source_editor.htm to .aspx

Greatly appreciate any help and ideas!

Answer 1

I solved the issue. A http_handler for static content was needed. After I added the following to the web.config:

<httpHandlers>
<add path="*.htm" verb="*" type="System.Web.StaticFileHandler" validate="True" />

The static .htm files are being served. Microsoft has a nice article on that: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909641
