Cloudmin left menu not showing

[neubreed]

Not sure if you want issues posted here ... But I have a couple of items to report ..

On my install there's no cloudmin items appearing on the left. and if I don't have cloudmin installed the link still appears in the top menu

Cheers,
Ryan

Yes, this is a known issue. I am just now starting on the top bar (it is currently a dummy HTML page...it doesn't change based on logged in user, or anything else useful, and doesn't know about whether Virtualmin or Cloudmin are installed). All of these things will be fixed in the next day or two.

Same issue here.
But also the virtualmin and webmin menu don't show up.

Freshly installed debian 7.

Also i get an AJAX HEADER error. Maybe related?

[swelljoe]

Not related to the Cloudmin menu (Cloudmin menu doesn't exist yet, and isn't expected to work in this theme just yet). Virtualmin and Webmin menus should be working if you're logged in as root (non-root use of the theme isn't supported yet or recommended).

What shows up in the miniserv.error log when you try to load either menu?

[Goeny]

Can you please help me in the right direction finding that log file?
Since i am missing my menus, i cannot navigate anywhere. Maybe through ssh? Where is the miniserv.error log located?

[swelljoe]

It's usually in /var/webmin on Linux systems, but may be in other locations for tarball installations of Webmin.

Also, if you haven't seen/tried Ilia's Authentic theme, you may find it is more "ready" than this theme, I've been working with him on getting all of the Virtualmin/Cloudmin menus working, and some other fixes to make it production ready for Virtualmin users. This theme kinda took a back seat to some website upgrades I've been working on, and so some known brokenness still exists; it's really close to production ready, but I just haven't had time to fix the remaining stuff.

Also, you can change themes from the command line by editing /etc/webmin/config and changing "theme=" to another theme (like "virtualmin-framed-theme"). You may also need to edit /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf and change "preroot=" in the same way. Restarting Webmin will be needed (/etc/init.d/webmin restart)

I have seen the Authentic theme. Like that one aswell.
Both themes are a huge improvement for webmin/virtualmin. Both are quite different aswell. And im kind of a theme addict. If it looks good, i want to use it...

The log file doesn't say much.
/newleft.cgi : Missing Headers

[swelljoe]

That indicates maybe an error parsing newleft.cgi, which is weird.

What do you get if you run:

perl -c newleft.cgi

In the theme directory?

[Goeny]

newleft.cgi syntax OK
