menus does not work on CiviCRM 3.4.4 and joomla 1.5.20
July 22, 2011, 05:30:15 am
Hi,

I have tried to upgrade an existing CiviCRM to 3.4.4, but the upgrade fails (separate thread).
I have tried to drop all tables civicrm* in MySQL and uninstall CiviCRM package in joomla, and reinstall.

But after this reinstall, which was installed ok, than the "menus" in CiviCRM joomla would not work!?
I can only see the title of the menus, not the actual menu content.!?

I even tried to remove all cached contents in joomla, and restarted apache to make sure, but same problem.

How do I get the menus to work?

Regards Tomas

I tried a fresh install, and thand tested the CiviCRM_DB_Tools:

# ./civicrm_db_integrity.php -u root joomla
CiviCRM DB Tools Version 1.2

PHP Notice:  Undefined index: USER in /home/daleto/a/civicrm_dbtools-1.2/civicrm_db_utils.php on line 2164

Notice: Undefined index: USER in /home/daleto/a/civicrm_dbtools-1.2/civicrm_db_utils.php on line 2164
Checking database joomla
Got version 3.4.4 from civicrm_domain.version
FATAL: Don't recognize version 3.4.4

?????????

DBTools hasn't (yet) been upgraded for latest versions. Have you used Firebug to check for javascript errors? Also might be a conflict w/ another component / module.

We have similar problem on a fresh install of
Joomla 1.5.23
CiviCRM 3.4.4

The left side dropdown of Create New was flattened.
The top CiviCRM menu disappeared.
Configure Dashboard has no response.
Only the CiviCRM footer displays.
There is no way to navigate the CiviCRM menu.

We have Extended Menu installed to Joomla 1.5.23 and JA_Purity is the default template.
Could this be the problem?

OK, got it to work.

The Joomla installation page said:
Quote
If CiviCRM screens are not displaying properly and / or javascript widgets are not functioning, check your CiviCRM Resource URL (Administer CiviCRM >> Global Settings >> Resource URLs). For Joomla! installs, it should be something like: http://(domainname)/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm

We manually updated the value in the DB and it brought back the top menu.

Could the installation script automatically insert the Resource URL for Joomla?

Thanks.

Generally it does that. Would be good if you can track down what was different about your installation environment that caused it to either not define it or define it incorrectly .. and then hopefully submit a patch to handle that case correctly.

Elmobile:

You stated: We manually updated the value in the DB and it brought back the top menu.

I believe this is the root of my problem, which sounds identical to yours, but I can't figure out where to update this value in the DB.  Can you provide more specific instructions regarding the fix?

You can find this value in 3.4.7 for Joomla by running this query:
SELECT *
FROM `civicrm_option_value`
WHERE `value` LIKE '%CiviCRM%'
LIMIT 0 , 30

You'll get a few records, but you'll see the Resource URL record.

I am still working out how to fix it.
