Get broken images in MCMS authoring mode

This situation happened in my development machine. I think the problem exited since I have set up the CMS on it.

First, I switched to edit mode and everything looks fine including the web author console area. Then, I clicked the add new posting to enter the edit page and it looks fine too. However, when I finished the editing process and clicked the "Save" command, a pop up window which contains broken images showed up.

According to my experience, it is a similar issue to my previous post, [Get a repeating path in CMS resources gallery on XP platform]. To solve the problem, simply follow the procedure below:

  1. Open the IIS manager.
  2. Find out the web instance to which your CMS app installed.
  3. Switch to your CMS application if you installed it as a sub app under your web instance.
  4. Find out a folder called "cms" and enter it.
  5. Find out a virtual folder called "Web Author". (BINGO! If "Web Author" is not a virtual folder then it is the problem. Simply right click on it then adjust the setting to virtual folder by removing the application pool.)
  6. Done.
