The error is "Web.config registration missing.....", but the registration is done.

The dialog box show the message "404 not found" and path in the proprieties is

Hello Monic,

If you are using the RadEditor WebPart as a custom WebPart for SharePoint, make sure that the dialogs are configured correctly in the web,config file of the SharePoint application as per to the guidelines mentioned in this KB article.

On a side note, when it comes to SharePoint, we always recommend using the especially designed RadEditor WebPart for SharePoint which is part of the Telerik WebParts for SharePoint suite.

Thanks for your reply.
I had already checked the KB Article.
I should post more RadEditor in a page, so I do not think RadEditor WebPart for SharePoint is the right solution.

I can't create webpart for every text section. My purpose is save every section in a sql field.

Hello Monica,

To enable the dialog in custom WebParts consisting of the RadEditor control, you should properly configure the appropriate handlers, as explained in the KB. If you still have issues, I suggest verifying the correctness of the web.config registrations and that they match the correct version of the fully qualified names. 

Note, that the RadEditor WebPart is built as a custom WebPart. Due to that I do not see what is the difference if a custom one is used or t he already built and provided. Adding it to a SharePoint page is simple as the custom WebParts. Ones installed and enabled, you need only to add it as a WebPart in the possible placeholders.

Hello Ianko,
I've used RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX in a SharePoint web part and I've seen the same problems Monica told you.
I have a couple of questions:
1) Is it possible to use this control within a SharePoint web part. I need to be able to attach documents. Is there a way to make this functionality work. 
2) I've also tried using SPRadEditor but I cannot configure toolbar buttons. It seems not possible. Is there a way to do it?
   Again I would need the attachment functionality.
Regards

HelloEnrico,

You can use the RadEditor from the Telerik UI for ASP.NET AJAX suite for custom WebParts in SharePoint and to enable the Document Manager, you should configure properly the web.config of the SharePoint application and the RadEditor's DialogHandlerUrl property as per to the suggestions in the provided KB article.

I.e.:

1. Add the needed handlers (WebResources.axd,  DialogHandler.aspx etc.) in the web.config of SharePoint;
2. Make sure to add the fully qualified names according the used version;
3. Replace the DialogHandler.aspx with DialogHandler.axd to be valid for the SharePoint environment;
4. In the RadEditor, set the DialogHandlerUrl to "~/Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler.axd".

However, I would recommend using the already designed for SharePoint SPRadEditor. It's Link Manager is the one that SharePoint natively provides and it best fits the needs in SharePoint. It is enabled by default and it should appear in the toolbar as expected (see this screenshot).This dialog provides the functionality to link documents that already present in SharePoint's file collections, including the documents.

If you need to use the built-in Document Manager of the RadEditor, you can reconfigure the ToolsFile of the SPRadEditor and enable it. Note that using the SPRadEditor class in custom WebPart again uses the ToolsFile.xml file to populate the tools. You can follow this help article for additional details about modifying the ToolsFile. To enable the Document Manager just add the following line in any of the tools sections of ToolsFile.xml file:

<tool name="DocumentManager" />
