2.2.0 Install broke manager and site. Reinstall just broke manager

Quote from: sottwell at Jan 30, 2012, 06:34 AM

Actually those errors indicate an overloaded MySQL server that cannot return the queries needed to perform the manager actions.

Well, I can assure you that we guessed that

Is there a way to un-overload it?
For example using memcached (which we have on our server, but cannot get MODx to recognize)?
Or forcing MODx to use persistent connections (which is not a documented feature)?

We tried the following steps, which seem to work well for now:

• Backed up site contents, snippets, chunks, templates, TVs and their relationships
• Erased the directories: /core,/connectors, /manager
• Reinstalled revo 2.2.0 from scratch (new install) - deleted cookies - and manager started working again (phew!)
• Overwritten site contents, TVs, etc. with the backed up tables, but site accesses still put the MySQL server off - too many connections, so...
[li]Added this in /core/config/config.inc.php:

$driver_options = array ( PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => true ); [/code

]

In my opinion, this should be turned on by default... anyone knows any drawbacks in doing so?
[/li]

The die() is there because it's a security check and it's more secure not to provide any information at all when a security check fails.

Hi Did you fix this install? I have same issue and I cannot fix with things currently on the web. I just figured out that problem is not coming from lang.js.php itself but from modx that is apparently not able to get user ID, and so not identify user to to the JSON call.
Any help is welcome. Even fresh and blank install is not working.

Hello everyone,
I have an issue similar to this one:

https://forums.modx.com/thread/73462/2-2-0-install-issue---blank-manager#dis-post-408189

unfortunately, the steps that the modX support team provided in that case don't work for us.

Our site history:
had ModX 2.1.5 (~6000 pages)
developed a CMP to manage product catalog
upgraded to 2.2 and got manager errors like blank pages, no sidebar, cannot logout...
uninstalled (restored 2.1.5 backup)
upgraded packages
cleaned unused packages, deleted them and everything under /core/cache/ via FTP
reinstalled 2.2.0

This made the manager show up without sidebar and got a plenty of errors like (from Chrome console):

Resource interpreted as Other but transferred with MIME type undefined.
Resource interpreted as Other but transferred with MIME type undefined.
index.php:82 Uncaught ReferenceError: _ is not defined
modx.tree.directory.js:609 Uncaught ReferenceError: _ is not defined
index.php:1 Uncaught ReferenceError: _ is not defined
modx.localization.js:5 Uncaught ReferenceError: _ is not defined
utilities.js:17 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token [
modx.js:778 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefined
modx.grid.user.recent.resource.js:12 Uncaught ReferenceError: _ is not defined

Naturally, cleaning cache manually does not help in any way...

Any clues about where to look?

try to access your database, and change the compress_css and compress_js values in modx_system_settings table to 0.

Thanks a lot for your support but problem was not coming from compression here ;-)
It was only related to OVH specific hosting using specific CDN.

Happy new year!
