I found out that the problem was the permissions of the folder "media" that i changed to install a module...

Changed it to 775 and everything went OK.

I had the same problem when i tried to rename my Administrator folder name to my desire..
let say it become like this : http://yoursite/backend/
then i change JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR in includes/defines.php and in 'administratorfolder'/includes/defines.php from 'administrator' to 'backend'.

This will cause file not exist error, notice it will adding the new administrator folder name like this :
<script src="/site/backend/includes/js/joomla.javascript.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/site/backend/media/system/js/mootools.js" type="text/javascript">

I'm not changing the script again because i had no idea where to change that :D

so i added those files to the path.. and drop down menu is working again

I had the same probleme and I check the define file you had say, and notice that the path was something like "..... /administrator ..." and in the url I used on my browser I put "Administrator" ("A" upper case instead of lower case). The administrator backend seems to work fine but not the menu. And when I replace the "A" with "a" , the menu worked again.
Not sure if it's the same for you but it worked for me. I've got theses errors with the uppercase letter:

Code:
Erreur : window.addEvent is not a function
Fichier Source : http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/Administrator/index.php
Ligne : 23

Erreur : Class is not defined
Fichier Source : http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/Administrator/templates/khepri/js/menu.js
Ligne : 19

Erreur : window.addEvent is not a function
Fichier Source : http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/Administrator/templates/khepri/js/index.js
Ligne : 26

Hi,

I "suddenly" had the same problem. This was due to my deletion of the <my joomla site>media forder. Restoring the media folder from the trash solved everything !

Well, I had this same problem, and lo-and-behold it was also the case-sensitive nature of the URL. With "Administrator" I get no drop down menus; however, with "administrator", I do.

I would classify this as a major bug.

Wrong configuration causing that problem when enabling Search Engine Friendly URLs in the Global Configuration .
Check your configuration file and values make sure .
Especially , var $live_site 's value .
if this wasn't set the correct path , js files wont be loaded .

Solved the problem, so it would seem.

*Followed the install instructions
*Unpublished Admin Menu
*Published AAM
*Refreshed the page
*Setup some tags
*Tested the menu

The submenus weren't working. So I turned the cache off in AAM module settings and for the last couple of hours that seems to have solve the problem.

i have the exact same problem ... my admin menu is not working.
I have tried copying the media folder to /administrator/
I've changed the $live_url to ''
I've tried everything in this topic and other topics
I have to mention: on localhost everything works just perfect, on the server this menu gets me nuts.

i believe it has something to do with mootools.js

i'll attach a printscreen with Chrome's error console:
Image

The mootools.js file exists, and it's in the right place ...

please help me!
Thanks,

I have found that the problem is not linked to the Windows Folder name itself but linked to the URL you enter in your browser.

If i use http://localhost/joomla/Administrator/index.php i have the error message and menu is not working.

Joomla menu is working when i use http://localhost/joomla/administrator/index.php

It seems that the URL used is case sensitive

Hope this help

klaxie, what I can help you with is what helped me when I had a problem of "window.addEvent is not a function" error. I changed the value of $live_site variable from '' to 'http://www.mysite.com'. Although the error doesn't show up any more (and all frontend articles began loading normally), I still can't make backend work.. However, under my localhost on PC everything functions perfectly, just like in your case. As for hosting server, I've got a free hosting plan at AWARDSPACE and suspect that all this mess has something to do with server's awkward configuration.

Changing Administrator to administrator in the url (I have localhost on my notebook) worked for me.

For whatever it is worth, I recently fixed a clients Joomla 1.5 website with the problem.

They had an odd 301 redirect in their .htaccess file in the web root. It was misdirecting some files, and giving the JavaScript error:

window.addEvent is not a function

Commenting out the entry solved the problem.

Hello,
I need some help with the fact that my joomla 1.5.25 backend menus do not work after typing anything in url after /administrator
A. example of working: menus expand and work fine in www.xxxxxxx.com/administrator/index.php
B. example of NOT WORKING: menus do not expand, seem blocked and i have to delete the url in browser in order to have the url that ends with /administrator and choose another menu to act on. www.mysite.com/administrator/index.php? ... om_banners
I tried all the versions of IE and of Firefox, same problem.
The only errors I am getting both in IE and in MF are

Error: ($(filter) || document).getElementsBySelector is not a function
Error: el.set is not a function
Error: el.addEvent is not a function
Error: ($(filter) || document).getElementsBySelector is not a function
/media/system/js/mootools.js

I have read all posts regarding this issue. I have lower case in my administrator urls.
What can I do?????

Ok, so am seeing the same issue with the url being case sensitive. I have not however found a solution such as a rewrite rule or a .ini setting to ignore case. I am not well versed with Apache and PHP, so I am begging for a real fix for this. Since I am not as strong in Apache and PHP, if there is a rewrite rule or something, could someone provide the code and where to copy the code to.

Copying the /administrator folder to /Administrator is not a real option please.

Recap:
Joomla 1.5.26
Apache 2.2
PHP 5.2.17

www.domain.com/Administrator... does not work
www.domain.com/administrator... does work

I have reviewed and updated the contents of the /media/system/js folder as suggested elsewhere.

I have also noticed that this behavior is universal between IE 6,7,8,9 and Firefox 12.0.
