Turning off compression worked for me too! Thanks.
Did you turn if compression for both js and CSS?
harveyev, have you tried other things mentioned? Checking PHP Timezone, making sure the Core/Packages directory contains all those previously installed, made sure the cache is clear etc?
I had to fix this issue for someone the other day on two different sites, one was the core config file was pointing to the wrong directories, the other, changing the compression and caching settings for the manager in the database and then running an Upgrade Install fixed the issue.
Hope you get it sorted.
Hi Harveyev, During my attempts to solve the issue, turning off compression didn't seem to help, but as Ralph says, the core config can be a culprit (was for me at one stage). Apart from that I think we covered everything in our earlier comments.
If you can get a vanilla copy of modx installed, but not your backup, I would suggest raising your memory, turning on php errors, checking your core config file (very carefully - I overlooked a spelling mistake once that caused me hours of grief), turning off js/css compression, running install again and taking it from there.
Hope you come right
