    I’m using the following configuration:

    MODX Revolution 2.1.3-pl (traditional)
    Ubuntu 11.04
    Apache/2.2.17 (Ubuntu)
    MySQL-Client-Version: 5.1.54
    php5 5.3.5-1ubuntu7.2
    PHP Erweiterung: mysqli

    All programs are installed from ubuntu packages (except for modx).

    Installation of modx finishes with all green and ok.
    After logging into the managers page, I get the menu bar on top, but no left menu bar as I saw it on another installation on Windows xampp (just a single window with dashboard messages).

    Opening firebug, I get the following console log messages:

    illegal character }� lang.j...action= (Zeile 12)
    illegal character Ext.namespace(’MODx’); MODx.config = {...Dx.user = {id:"1",username:"admin"}�
    modx.c...ctx=mgr (Zeile 1)
    _ is not defined
    Ext.onReady(function(){if(MODx.config....modx-browser-view",MODx.browser.View);
    modext...v=213pl (Zeile 21)
    _ is not defined
    Ext.onReady(function(){if(MODx.config....modx-browser-view",MODx.browser.View);
    modext...v=213pl (Zeile 21)
    MODx.perm is undefined
    Ext.apply(Ext,{isFirebug:(window.conso....changeMenu=MODx.LayoutMgr.changeMenu;
    modx.l...v=213pl (Zeile 1)
    MODx.user is undefined
    MODx.page.Welcome=function(A){A=A||{};...MODx.helpWindow.show(Ext.getBody());};
    welcom...v=213pl (Zeile 1)

    The strange characters are really there. I’ve setup the mysql database to use UTF-8 and accepted the defaults during installation of modx. There is nothing in the mysql error.log nor in the apache2 error.log. I cannot access the modx error.log because the manager page doesn’t work.

    Anything I can do to nail down the problem? I’d really love to give it a try.
