Fresh install - no menu at all? [solved]

Hi, I have just freshly installed "cms made simple 1.1.3.1", and cannot get the menu to show up... (ie7, firefox, opera tested)

Here is the test site:
http://investmentproperty-overseas.com/tmp/

I have tried all the templates installed by default, to no avail.

The current template is "Left simple navigation + 1 column", not a single change added.

Here is the piece of code with menu from current template:

Code: Select all

     {* Start Sidebar *}
      <div id="sidebar">

      {* Start Navigation *}
      <div id="menu_vert">
         <h2 class="accessibility">Navigation</h2>
         {menu template='simple_navigation.tpl' collapse='1'}
      </div>
      {* End Navigation *}

      {* Start News *}
      <div id="news">
         <h2>News</h2>
          {news number='3' detailpage='news'}
      </div>
I can see the news module, but not the Menu module....

Any ideas why?  It basically makes the system unusable.

Server system is:

Apache 1.3.39, MySQL 5.0.45, php 5.2.5

Have you checked the Users & Groups > Group Permissions > admin to make sure all the permissions are ticked?...

I deleted tmp/cache/* but t hat did not help.

The admin rights are ok.

I also noticed that there is no wysiwyg editor to choose from... So some default modules are missing. I also did sync between the tarball contents and the uploaded files - all the files were in place.

What solved the problem: I reinstalled cmsms (now in cms, besides tmp dir) and now I see the menu!

The only thing different was, that I used the zip tarball instead of using tar.gz tarball. In both cases I uploaded files using Total commander from a windows machine... The server is on linux.
