Just transferred files from old server to new. When I go to access any modules in the menu they don't seem to work. I've refreshed cache, deleted sessions, checked config.xml for any anomalies and nothing pops out. Is there something else I should be looking for?

Error on Admin

Errors in system.log Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/htdocs/var/session/sess_3gik5vasun8ac8hevs16f7g581, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13)

You should reset the permissions for all the files

Here’s how to reset your file and directory permissions if PHP is running through FastCGI, suPHP, or LSAPI:

find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
chmod 550 pear
chmod 550 mage #for magento 1.5+

If PHP is running as a module (DSO), you will need to do this:

#for magento 1.5+
find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
chmod o+w var var/.htaccess app/etc
chmod 550 mage
chmod -R o+w media

Have you tried disabling each of the modules in question via there /app/etc/modules/MODULENAME.xml files? So if you set them to false in the XML, then log out, log back into admin & refresh your cache. Then go back, set them to true in the XML files, log out & log in again.

Are all the other admin menus working properly? Do you get anything in your exception or system logs that looks suspect?

  • Just tried what you suggested and still getting the same issue.

    Only the 3rd party extensions aren't loading.
