Known errors

Disk quota exceded

Errors:
1: Disk quota exceded by 79 KBytes !

Cause: The fileadmin quota has been exceeded or would be exceeded if this file were uploaded.

Solution: Delete files from fileadmin to free disk space.

Alternatively, you may request additional storage. The following checks must pass for storage to be increased:

  1. There is a business need for additional disk space
  2. All files in the fileadmin area are used in the site. Usage is determined by being referenced or linked-to from a Web page in the site
  3. Files stored in the fileadmin area are optimized for the Web. This means there are no digital photos in their original 10MP format, for example

The requested page didn't have a proper connection to the tree-root!

Cause: The most frequent cause of this error is creating a shortcut page without defining the shortcut target.

Solution:

  1. Edit the page properties of the shortcut page
  2. On the shortcut tab, select a specific destination page using the page browser or choose a shortcut mode. Only one or the other is required, not both
    Page properties shortcut tab has Shortcut to page: and Shortcut mode: fields

Details: A shortcut page is like a 'quick link' shortcut to another page in the CMS page tree. Without a target, TYPO3 is unable to identify what page should be displayed when the shortcut is selected. Either a specific page or a shortcut method (that allows a page to be selected dynamically, depending on the available pages) must be configured for the shortcut to work.

Error. Page not found.

Cause: Varies. May include logging into the wrong CMS login URL, not using https for preview, not publishing changes, or stale content cache.

Symptoms: one of the following:

  1. The page has not been published and you are attempting to reach it at its published location instead of its preview location. The two are differentiated by their URL (http vs. https , respectively)

    Solution: In TYPO3, use the View module and then select the appropriate page from the pagetree

    Details: TYPO3 will not display a preview unless you use the secure (https) communication. By default your browser auto-completes URLs typed like www.ndsu.edu with http:// (insecure) and the preview is not activated. Using the View module applies the correct protocol

  2. You are using the View module and have selected a page from the pagetree, but the preview still doesn't work

    Solution: Verify that you have logged into TYPO3 CMS using the correct login URL shown on the CMS home page

    Details: Most NDSU sites log in at http://workspaces.ndsu.edu/typo3 , but you should verify with the list on the CMS home page. Note that if you author multiple sites having different URLs, you may need to log in to the site AND switch workspaces in order to author content and preview it

  3. The page name, Navigation Title, or Speaking URL Path Segment have been updated, and you are attempting to view the change by typing the new URL into your Web browser's address bar before the change is published

    Solution: Same as (1), above. Use the View module to preview the page

    Details: Same as (1), above.

  4. The page name, Navigation Title, or Speaking URL Path Segment have been updated and the change was published

    Solution: Clear branch cache

    Details: Due to page caching by TYPO3 CMS, pages may already be stored using the old URL. Clearing the cache forces the pages to regenerate using the new URL

No workspaces found

Error: You are unable to see any workspaces or modules after successfully logging in to TYPO3

Cause: An author has a login to TYPO3 CMS but has not been added to any groups

Solution: If not already requested, contact the owner or manager for the site you plan to author. She must add you to her group before you will see any CMS modules or pages.

Details: NDSU CMS service

If you log into the CMS backend (authoring environment) and do not see any modules/workspaces or an 'ERROR: No workspaces found!' message appears, you are not a member of any group(s) in TYPO3 and do not have permission to access any workspaces.

Site owners and managers are responsible to maintain the list of persons who can contribute content in their site. You must contact the owner or manager for the site you plan to author. Once she has added you to the group, you will see CMS modules and pages from her site.

Use the access responsibly, as the site owner can also revoke your access to her site at any time.

No thumb generated!

In the backend Filelist, if you see a thumbnail that says No thumb generated! instead of a preview of the first page of the PDF it is because the PDF is not properly formatted as a PDF file. Most likely the PDF was created by "printing" it instead of using a proper PDF generator to create a tagged PDF.

The error is innocuous as far as TYPO3 is concerned, but it does indicate the PDF is probably not accessible. You should fix the PDF and re-upload it.

Note that PDFs that do not show this error thumbnail are not necessarily accessible.

Warning: CMS improper reference image #

This is a warning that a file located on the CMS server was pasted into the rich text editor by copy-and-paste, not using the image insert dialog feature within the RTE.

Because the image was inserted not using the Insert/modify image button, no relationship was recorded in TYPO3. If someone deletes that image, they will see no warning that they are about to break your page. If the image is deleted, it would no longer display in your page.

Otherwise, this warning is purely informational.

Warning: References ndsu.edu image #

This is a warning that a file located on a known NDSU server was pasted into the rich text editor by copy-and-paste.

Because the image is located on an non-CMS server, no relationship was recorded in TYPO3. If someone deletes that image from that server, it will no longer display in your page.

Otherwise, this warning is purely informational.

Warning: References external host! image #

This is a warning that a file located on a non-NDSU server was pasted into the rich text editor by copy-and-paste.

Because the image is located on an external server, no relationship was recorded in TYPO3. If someone deletes that image from that server, it will no longer display in your page.

Some servers block images inserted using this method (but you might not notice it unless you clear your browser cache and reload the page to see if the image is still present).

You should probably gain permission from the owner of that server before including images located on external servers.

Otherwise, this warning is purely informational.

Can't see and/or click the close, save, save + close buttons

Have you inserted several images into the RTE that were not referenced from your Filelist storage? This is a known problem, and the only work-around is to click the page from the pagetree again and continue editing until the next page save.

You should also inspect the images in the content element to be sure you actually need them included in your page. Contents copy-pasted from old Web sources often include "spacer" images that you can just delete from the RTE.

NDSU Admin (permission management) codes

In addition to human-readable errors that include a possible solution for the owner/managers to follow, errors are reported using codes formatted as CMS-Admin-## to assist with connecting errors to their source. A summary of known/possible errors is listed below. Note that several of these errors should not be possible if the owner/manager is using the TYPO3 interface.
