Answered Resources missing! (not compress_js)

I am really stumped as to what is going on or what to try next

Running Revo 2.1.x on client's site and got email that a page was missing. When I go to check, the whole site is throwing a 503 error. I log in to the manager, and NONE of the resources are showing up. It is as if they didn't exist—the configuration checker is also giving the warning about the error page setting pointing to a non-existant page.

I updated the client to 2.2.1-pl hoping that would fix the problem. The setup got all the way through to the check screen... all green... but the next screen (which should be the success screen) was an empty block—like it didn't finish drawing the page. Tried a couple of times, re-uploaded the setup folder and tried again. Same problem.

At this point, the MySQL database password I requested from the client made it to me, so I logged into the database. Sure enough, it reported—and fixed—errors on the site_content table. At that point, I logged into the manager, and the whole tree showed up again, and the site showed up again on the front end.

I guess I should have left it there, but I figured that the installer didn't fully run, so I reran setup. Setup successfully ran completely, but, lo-and-behold, upon logging in, no more resource tree in the manager. The front end, at least, serves up the home page (but the Wayfinder menu is empty).

I'm not getting the config warning, I can access everything else, and I have already tried turning off the compression settings (a la other board posts). Modx seems to think there's nothing there... except that I can get to any page on the front end by typing the url directly (can't click, as Wayfinder isn't generating the menu).

2 or 3 times I have reuploaded every file and then rerun setup (which always finishes successfully). I have confirmed that all the data is still there in the database. I have run repair table on every table in the database. I have even done a sql dump of all the data, deleted all the tables and re-imported them back into the database. None of this has worked.

This is one of the weirdest things I think I have ever seen with MODX.

I would much appreciate anyone who can give some more ideas of what to try!

Thanks

It kind of sounds like an .htaccess problem, especially if you can see things in the Manager.

I'd try turning off FURLs and renaming .htaccess to something else to see if that makes things show up. If it does, the problem is very likely to be in the .htaccess file.

Also, make sure that you have this in the head section of all templates:

Actually, it's the opposite of what you are thinking... I can't see things in the manager (well, I can't see any resources). The friendly URLs are working. For instance, I can type in the friendly URL of a sub-page and it loads up just fine (except the Wayfinder-generated nav is empty).

One of the first things I tried was to delete and reinstall the .htaccess file as I've had problems with .htaccess conflicts before, but that wasn't it. <base> tag is in the head (this site has been running fine for over a year now).

Still stumped.

Sorry, I'm stumped too.

Maybe someone else has an idea.
