Right side of admin panel disappears after updating my MODx Revo 2.2.15-pl to MODx Revo 2.3.0-pl

I've come across a strange kind of a bug or issue after updating my MODx Revo 2.2.15-pl to MODx Revo 2.3.0-pl

The right side of the admin panel just disappeared after modx revo update

However, if I install a fresh copy of MODX from scratch, this problem doesn't appear at all.

I have updated my site several times before without problems. I always followed the steps described in the official manual Upgrading MODX Revolution 2.x

Maybe someone familiar with this situation can help me find out what's wrong?

Also be careful with .htaccess in root MODx folder, try not change him, in some cases it causes issues. MODX Revo bug.

I find this is generally a symptom due to permissions on the /assets/ directory

  • make sure the webserver has permission to read/write to /assets/components/ [and /manager/ and /connectors/]
  • clear cache [always!]
  • disable js/css compression
  • make sure that the left panel is not actually collapsed [older versions was difficult to see the little arrow!]

Errors/problems should show up in core/cache/logs/ installation log.

Anyway, probably what has happened here is that you uploaded all your files VIA ftp as the ftp user & the webserver cannot overwrite those files. To make life easier on you, use the advanced install - that way all you have to upload are the /setup/ and /core/ directories [both should be read/write by the webserver as well]
