I am finally moving my sites from DNN8 to DNN9.4.1. After deleting some 10 years old and unused stuff, upgrade went through without issues.
However, the edit bar is missing on any site, any kind of skin. I can't see any hints in JS console or event log.
This has probably already been reported several times, but so far there is probably no solution published.
Has anyone an idea where to look for? Any extension which might be the cause?
Joe, thanks.
I can exclude skins and containers as the cause, because they are tested in fresh installations. Nevertheless I did add a new page with Xcillion skin and container, and the editBar is still missing.
I'm afraid there's some kind of setting or extension from the last 10 years at play here.
And I guess not errors in the browser console? Did you try clearing portal.css (probably not the issue, but worth a try)?
Thank you Timo,
Posted By Stefan Cullmann on 28 Oct 2019 09:45 AM Thank you Timo, There are no errors in browser console. It is not a css thingy which hides the edit bar. It is not there. No div with a class editBarFrameContainer, nothing.
ok, sorry you already wrote that I see now.
I have ran into this problem before and I don't know exactly what causes it, but a solution provided by Will Strohl has helped me many times in the past.
Try removing the folder
When you reload DNN it will regenerate this folder and the persona bar should work again. You can find the full history at the old Q+A section of the old site https://www.dnnsoftware.c...bar-not-displaying-1
This problem commonly happened when I moved a DNN instance from one server to another, or from a local machine to Azure
Posted By Andrew Hoefling on 29 Oct 2019 03:13 PM Don't try this on a live production site, only do it on your backed up site because you may destroy your entire site
Haha, a lot of lessons learned in the past.
I have a copy of my production environment on VMs, listening to other aliases, and mostly isolated from the rest of the world. An I can go back to beginning again and again until the whole update runs smooth.
I will give it a try. I am currently debuging the JS. _Config.UserMode_ is always set to "Edit" instead of "View". Thats why clicks on the edit pen only enables/disables the edit locking. However, the edit bar still doesn't show up, in that case it should load on each reload, shouldn't it?
