[solved] need help: something broke my files upload was created by gcprnet

I want to let my users upload a file in their articles so I set up a new field (file). I assigned it to the desired type and now I have an upload-button on my frontend-new-article page. So far everything is OK.
But When I click on my file-upload-button I end up with an empty page instead of the file-upload-form of the filesmanager.
The Iframe points to

Code:

http://www.domain.com/index.php?option=com_flexicontent&view=fileselement&tmpl=component&index=0&field=65&itemid=0&items=0&filter_uploader=104&84f46704971efa4b130f6fd55f0c8f0a=1&Itemid=391

and the only contents of this page are empty head- and body tags.
This seems to be a frontend-problem. File-upload works fine when editing an article via backend.
Does anyone have any Idea what could cause this behavior?
Any help appreciated...
Regards

I think I found the cause of my "broken" fileupload:
I switched from SH404sef to Joomlas' system SEF and when I activate Joomlas' System SEF Plugin my fileuplad won't work anymore. Can anyone confirm this behaviour?

Also try this:
-- Restore the original .htaccess that came with joomla

If you test please post back here.

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
-- Add your voice to the FLEXIcontent JED listing with a 5-star...

Negative, same result (I had the .haccess cleaned up before so only original entries were present, but even extracting a fresh one from the current archive did not change anything).
Am I the only one whos has this problem?

the fileupload html is created ok, then system sef plugin is replacing the --ALL-- html of the page with nothing , that is why you have a white page.

this is strange that the regular expression matching of the SEF plugin match and replace all page with nothing, is there somewhere some invalid characters ? or is it something else, i cannot easily test without a local copy

I have put this in the beggining of onAfterRoute function of the SEF plugin (plugins/system/sef.php):

Code:

if (JRequest::getVar('option')=='com_flexicontent' && JRequest::getVar('view')=='fileselement') {
  return true;
}

If you upgrade joomla and this plugin is overwritten the reapply patch.

I have seen before system SEF plugin replacing a different page (the item edit form) with nothing. This is strange.
