Solution to menu missing in the Administrator panel

Post by ServInfoAJ » Sun Mar 02, 2008 12:54 pm

Hi,

If you happen to loose your menu items in the administrator panel of if you get a message about javascript and Ajax, read this.

After some long nights of investigations... uninstalling Java, re-installing Java...

I finally found out that I change a security parameter in my router ... a filter on Java applets.

So look in your router if you enabled any kind of filter in the firewall.

Hope this will help some of you.

Alex

java != javascript
also i would say there are no applets in the core for generating the menu, so your router option can not be the prob
ps: by me everything works just fine when i have activated the filter java applets in my router

pls test this again and also look that you have an actual firmware installed

Well...under my configuration at home, it solved the problem.

I have a Linksys Router WRT54G with the modified firmware DD-WRT v23 SP2. And since I removed the filter "Filter Java Applets", I see the menu again. When I was logging in from my office desktop it was working and back home it wasn't.

I can reproduce the anomaly with 100% confidence.

Regards.
