Next stupid config question - have you installed swfupload?

http://www.silverstripe.org/swfuploadfield-module/

The imageDataObjectManager uses that to upload the images.

Yes I have :-) I've been through all the instructions several times over.

OK, enough with the dumb questions then. Here's code from my working example you can compare against:

class SurfboardPage extends Page
{
	static $has_many = array (
		'Surfboards' => 'Surfboard'
	);
	
	public function getCMSFields()
	{
		$f = parent::getCMSFields();
		$manager = new ImageDataObjectManager(
			$this, // Controller
			'Surfboards', // Source name
			'Surfboard', // Source class
			'Attachment', // File name on DataObject
			array(
				'Dimensions' => 'Dimensions', 
				'Shaper' => 'Shaper',
				'Price' => 'Price', 
				'Category' => 'Category'
			), // Headings 
			'getCMSFields_forPopup' // Detail fields (function name or FieldSet object)
			// Filter clause
			// Sort clause
			// Join clause
		); 
		
		$manager->setFilter(
			'Category', // Name of field to filter
			'Filter by Category', // Label for filter
			singleton('Surfboard')->dbObject('Category')->enumValues() // Map for filter (could be $dataObject->toDropdownMap(), e.g.)
		);
		
		// If undefined, all types are allowed. Pass with or without a leading "."		
		$manager->setAllowedFileTypes(array('jpg')); 
		
		// Label for the upload button in the popup
		$manager->setBrowseButtonText("Upload (JPG only)"); 
		
		// In grid view, what field will appear underneath the icon. If left out, it defaults to the file title.
		$manager->setGridLabelField('Dimensions'); 
		
		// Plural form of the objects being managed. Used on the "Add" button.
		// If left out, this defaults to [MyObjectName]s
		$manager->setPluralTitle('Surfboards');
		
		// Set Upload folder to assets/uploads/boards 
		$manager->setUploadFolder('assets/Uploads/boards');
				
		$f->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Surfboards", $manager);

		return $f;
	}

}

class SurfboardPage_Controller extends Page_Controller
{
}

I've got some extra variables at the end which shouldn't matter, but you may want to try adding the class at the end for the Controller, so in your example you'd add to the very end of your ResourcePage.php:

class ResourcePage_Controller extends Page_Controller
{
}

The only difference I noticed on what would be your Resource.php is this bit:

static $has_one = array (
		'Attachment' => 'File',
		'SurfboardPage' => 'SurfboardPage'
	);

The attachment type is File rather than Image. Worth a shot.

Silverstripe frustrates the hell out me debugging it sometimes. Most of my solutions have come from digging through the forums. Hope this helps. Good luck.
