Joomla - TinyMCE causing "Access is denied" error

http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=465&t=213005

Line: 37xx
Char: 5
Error: Access is denied
Code: 0
URL: ..../index2.php ...

This error stops all edit functions on the page as well as the ability to CANCEL and return to the Control Panel.
About the only way out is the Back Arrow in your browser.
It prevents you from Adding or Editing Categories, Components and more.


The problem is a "NameSpace" conflict with Joomla!, Javascipt and your browser.
You have logged into your Joomla! control panel in the wrong namespace!


SOLUTION - 1 (for now ... if you want to use TinyMCE as your editor)
1) Find out what your "Live Site" URL is by going to Site|Global Configuration|Server
2) Make a written or mental note of EXACTLY what it is (i.e., http://www.myserver.com)
3) LOGOUT
4) LOG back IN to your administrator control panel with the EXACT same NameSpace as is configured in Joomla!
EXAMPLES:
If your "Live Site" URL is: http://www.myserver.com then login at http://www.myserver.com/administrator
If your "Live Site" URL is: http://myserver.com then login at http://myserver.com/administrator


SOLUTION - 2
YOU CAN JUST CHANGE YOUR EDITOR TO "NO WYSIWYG" OR USE ANOTHER EDITOR


Hope this helps other Novices like me!
