Welcome page became uneditable

[Melvin Williams, modifié il y a 10 années.]

Hello everybody,

I set up liferay 6.2.0 and customized the default theme. The theme doesn't apply to the administration pages. After playing around with the sites the welcome page became uneditable, i.e within the sites of site page when I click on the welcome page the right panel is empty. I had that issue before when I checked "don't show this page". The last time reinstalled everything. Now I can't edit and not even delete the site. I hope someone can help me with this issue. I don't want to reinstall everything again.


Thanks

Update: After the problem was gone it today occurred again. I now can provide some additional infos. When opening the sites of site an exception is thrown:

Is this a bug?

I have solved the issue. I think this is a bug. Adding and deleting the friendly URL seems to cause the problem. I looked at the database and found out that the corresponding table column was empty. I then added a friendly URL directly in the database and restarted the portal. Now I can edit the default welcome page again.

I just had exactly the same issue. Your solution worked like a charm, thanks!

Worked for me too. Thanks!
