Admin interface is blank

Post by ggirol » Mon Aug 31, 2015 9:09 pm

I built my site and when it was ready to go live I changed the DNS to point to the new directory and the site appears as expected, but the admin interface is blank! If I view source on the blank page the code for the page is there but the browser window is just blank. Tried this with both Firefox and Safari - same result. Any idea what is going on?

That means you have a javascript issue. The issue prevents the html to show (display: none). Verify with firebug the loading of the backend.
Issue with migrating? Include logs/joomla_update.php in your report!
Blank screen? Verify pagesource for HTML code (javascript error)
Installation failing on populating database? Install with set_time_limit(0)
Document your customizations!
