Help - page list disappearing when trying to expand content

Hi,

Using version 1.6.5 - i have created a large number of content pages (nearly 200) - I had a problem with the Page List disappearing, I would add a new page and it would say added but wouldn't redirect me to the full list of pages - we managed to fix this by turning the indent preference off and clearing the 'collapse' row from the cms_userprefs table.

However every time we now try to expand a root page to view the content underneath it seems to time out and the page list disappears again. We can get the page list back by repeating the above fix but I can't get the content to expand without resulting in the problem again - so I cant currently edit any 2nd level content?

Is there anything causing this or a permanent fix?

Thanks Steve

Did you check your system information yet?
Any yellow or red signs?

Steve,
maximum execution time
30
Put into the config.php file:

Code: Select all

ini_set('max_execution_time', 60);
to increase the max. execution time.
php safe mode ON
CMSMS doesn't support safe mode on. Try to set it to off.

Grtz. Rolf

Thanks! Our existing server provider wouldnt allow us to edit the php config file to control those settings so we have now switched it to a new server.
