Several people told me that installing the Editors is not described very well in the IBM Connections documentation. So i decided to write down the steps I used to deploy the editors. Hope it helps.
Check Installation on ephox: http://docs.ephox.com/display/EphoxForIBMConnections/Installing+Textbox.io+Services
* Extract EPHOX_EDITORS3.0.1_CONN5.5.zip
edit config/config.js
* editor: 'textbox.io | EditLive | CKEditor | role-based'
+ This sets the default editor. When you use role-based you can enable textbox.io and EditLive for different user groups.
+ Be aware that editlive needs a Java plugin which is mostly deactivated or outdated in actual browsers. * Enable Spelling-Servie URL (you need to deploy tbioServices_c5.ear):
+
spellingServiceUrl: "https://connections-host/ephox-spelling"
+ You have to set to https, that spell-checking works with http and https access to Connections.
+ If you have selected role-based, you must deploy the EphoxEditorsForConnections.ear * When you want to use the builtin spellchecking, you need to install services/tbioServices_c5.ear Start ./install.sh or install.exe
+
* ./install.sh root@webspherehost <customization-dir> <webressources-dir>
+
You need to type the root password 3 times, because installation uses
seperate ssh calls for the installation
* Create /opt/ephox/application.conf
+
(WINDOWS: WAS_INSTALLATION_DRIVE:\opt\ephox\application.conf)
ephox {
allowed-origins {
origins = [
"https://connections-55.panastoeps.local",
"http://connections-55.panastoeps.local"

}

Map Applications to your webserver, update the Connections versionstamp and restart Common and Ephox Applications
