RadEditor Image Editor raises an error

[Meik Napierski]

Hello,
i am using the Image Manager with a custom FileContentProvider which loads the image from different locations, all functions works fine only the image editor raises an error. When starting the image editor the image is shown and if i try to save the image regardless if the image attributes was changed or not the following error occured in the anonymous javascript function this._onReadyStateChange:

 

Microsoft JScript runtime error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Hi Meik,

Does the Image editor work with the default content provider? Try it and see if the problem is coming from the provider code or the Image Editor dialog itself.

One possibility for the problem is that you did not implement the StoreBitmap method in your custom provider. Another possibility is that you are not setting all required properties when you create your FileItem/DirectoryItem objects in the content provider code. Take a look at the custom provider example we have and compare it with your code.

All the best,

Hi,
the error occurs before the StoreBitmap method will be called. I have overridden all needed methods and the properties should be correct. Can you send me the link where the custom content provider is detailled explained? I only found an example implementing an existing DataBase Provider on your page.

Hello,
i have debugged all the code before the error occurs. The error occurs in this function:

1: Sys.Net.XMLHttpExecutor =

function Sys$Net$XMLHttpExecutor() {

 

 

2: /// <summary locid="M:J#Sys.Net.XMLHttpExecutor.#ctor" />

 

 

3: if (arguments.length !== 0) throw Error.parameterCount();

 

4: Sys.Net.XMLHttpExecutor.initializeBase(

this);

 

 

5: var _this = this;

 

 

6: this._xmlHttpRequest = null;

 

 

7: this._webRequest = null;

 

 

8: this._responseAvailable = false;

 

 

9: this._timedOut = false;

 

 

10: this._timer = null;

 

 

11: this._aborted = false;

 

 

12: this._started = false;

 

 

13: this._onReadyStateChange = (function () {

 

 

 

14: if (_this._xmlHttpRequest.readyState === 4 ) {

 

 

15: try {

 

 

16: if (typeof(_this._xmlHttpRequest.status) === "undefined") {

 

 

17: return;

 

18: }

19: }

 

20: catch(ex) {

 

 

21: return;

 

22: }

 

23: _this._clearTimer();

24: _this._responseAvailable =

true;

 

 

25: try {

 

26: _this._webRequest.completed(Sys.EventArgs.Empty);

27: }

 

28: finally {

 

 

29: if (_this._xmlHttpRequest != null) {

 

30: _this._xmlHttpRequest.onreadystatechange = Function.emptyMethod;

31: _this._xmlHttpRequest =

null;

 

32: }

33: }

34: }

35: });

 

36: this._clearTimer = (function() {

 

 

37: if (_this._timer != null) {

 

38: window.clearTimeout(_this._timer);

39: _this._timer =

null;

 

40: }

41: });

 

42: this._onTimeout = (function() {

 

 

43: if (!_this._responseAvailable) {

 

44: _this._clearTimer();

45: _this._timedOut =

true;

 

46: _this._xmlHttpRequest.onreadystatechange = Function.emptyMethod;

47: _this._xmlHttpRequest.abort();

48: _this._webRequest.completed(Sys.EventArgs.Empty);

49: _this._xmlHttpRequest =

null;

 

50: }

51: });

52: }

the error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" occurs when calling the method _this._webRequest.completed(Sys.EventArgs.Empty) in Line 26. and this is correct because you initialize the this._webRequest to null in Line 7, so you can't call any method from this object since the object will be correct initialized. I don't understand at this point how the webRequest should be initialized correctly in this context?

Hi,

The code you have pasted is from the default ASP.NET AJAX client API so there should be no problems with it. In such cases we recommend using Fiddler for IE or Firebug's Net panel for Firefox and looking at the actual response body for the AJAX request. Usually it contains a descriptive error message on what went wrong on the server.

Kind regards,
