admin console buggy

[filipdola]

Anybody know why I get pages inside admin that look like the css is missing ?
It seems to go on and off ... sometimes it is ok ... next time i click somewhere ,
the format of the page is all screwed up . I am not talking about the page content
or templates ... i am talking about the cms console itself .

[filipdola]

Looks like i forgot to set the owner of the cms directory and subdirectories on my web server to apache user .
everything ok now .

[filipdola]

no , it is happening again ... anyone know what the problem is ?

Check your httpd error logs.... there's probably something in there.

For a better help/answer you may want to use the Support Tool to give us and you more info on what you are working with...

[filipdola]

nothing in error logs ... how do i post a screen shot here ?

[filipdola]

the support tool would not be applicable to me since my problem is not with templates but with cmsmadesimple itself ...

anybody experience this bug ?  how do i put an image here so you can see the problem ?

Support tool would list all your modules installed, PHP configs etc, it can help

Posting an image is done via 'attach:' in 'additional options' on the reply page (under where you type your reply)

my picture is too large ... this problem is such a pain ... will try the Support Tools later

If you can't resize it put up on imageshack.us or other image hosting service

attached is part of the screen shot .. that is what i get when i go to Content - Pages section .

Every time I have had an issue like this.... and I mean EVERY time, there is an error someplace.... and it's always reported.  You just have to find it.

Try turning debug mode on.  and see what you get.

btw. nowhere in the history of this thread are there accurate descriptions of context.
We don't know if you're running CMS 0.7.9 or the svn version of joomla.  We don't know if this is a hosted site in unix, or your local windows 3.1 machine, as well, we don't know if it's an upgraded site, or something you just installed.  Please read and follow the forum rules.

We can't help you, without you providing some information.

what about the images upload directory in config.php ?  i tried changing that ... could that screw up things ?

i am using the vary latest cms tar .

[filipdola]

i turned debug mode on ... doesn't show me any errors ... i looked in apache access.log ... nothing except that it is looking in admin/themes/default/images  etc. 

nothing in error.log
