I was playing around with the mainmenu and added two new menu entries. When I saved the changes, the screen went blank. Now everytime I try to open the mainmenu to edit its contents, I get a blank screen. I tried different browsers with the same result. Editing other menus is not a problem.
Does anyone have an idea on how to fix my issue?
-
The blank screen is because there is a PHP's fatal error and you have set error messages not be visible.
Check your apache's error log to locate the error message and copy-paste the message here.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks I'll check them now.

Here it is:
[Wed Apr 08 14:00:43 2009] [error] [client x.x.x.x] Failed loading /usr/local/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_4.3.so: /usr/local/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_4.3.so: undefined symbol: empty_string, referer: http://www.testsite.com/elxis/administrator/index2.php?option=com_menumanager
[Wed Apr 08 14:00:43 2009] [error] [client x.x.x.x] PHP Warning: Zend Optimizer for PHP 5.2.x cannot be found (expected at '/usr/local/Zend/lib/Optimizer-2_6_2/php-5.2.x/ZendOptimizer.so') - try reinstalling the Zend Optimizer in Unknown on line 0, referer: http://www.testsite.com/elxis/administrator/index2.php?option=com_menumanager
I logged a call with my webhost to look into the Zend Optimizer error.
Edit:
My webhost found out I had Zend Optimizer in the php.ini for my site, while they don't have Zend installed anymore on new servers.
(Oops ::))

Hmmm... I think I may have found the issue. I created a new section and in the new section I created a new category called 'Administration'. I didn't realise that there already was a category called 'Administration' in the 'Discover Elxis 2008' section. Then I created new entries in the main menu for the new section and category and I think that's where it went wrong. Am I right?
-
The error you copy-pasted is not relative to the particular problem you have in Elxis.
The problem might be the one you refer to. Can you remove this category?

Thanks for your help datahell, I really appreciate it.
I figured the Zend error had nothing to do with the Elxis problem I was experiencing and because I was still testing Elxis, I decided to do a re-install. I'll try to re-create the issue in the next few days. Just for my understanding, is it possible to create two categories with the same name and put them in different sections?
Section Category
1 A
2 A
When I did, everything seemed to work fine, the only problem I experienced was when I added them to the mainmenu. They showed up fine in the front-end, but in the back-end I was unable to edit the mainmenu.

This needs testing to answer you. Normally you don't have any problem as long as the categories are on different sections. The real problem can be caused by seo titles. SEO titles should be unique in their section, and although you have the categories in different sections you better use different seo titles for each category.
How did you created the menu items? Table - Category content or Blog - Category content ?

Thanks for the information, it all makes sense. I'll do some more tests on the weekend in order to configure my sections and categories optimally. I'm pretty sure I used Table - Category content. I will confirm this after I re-test it.
