DNN 9 Persona Bar not visible after login - authentication

I am using DNN 9. I recently upgraded DNN from version 9.1.1 to 9.3.2. When I Login, the left side of DNN disappears with only the logo od DNN. Other options like settings,edit etc are not seen. Any Idea as to what the issue might be?

If you search the forums at dnnsoftware.org, you'll probably find the solution. I'm afraid that I don't recall what it is.
I think, though, that upgrading to 9.4.4 will fix it, too. You'll want to do that in a test environment to make sure that your upgrade will work. There may be some third party modules that need to be upgraded before you upgrade to 9.4.4, so check with module vendors.

As an addition to Joe's answer: There were Problems with the Newtonsoft JSON versions. Maybe this thread is helpful: https://www.dnnsoftware.com/forums/threadid/543186/scope/posts/persona-bar-not-displaying-completely
"...so check with module vendors": There are known issues with DNNSharp modules. See https://dnncommunity.org/forums/aft/748 - but better check with all vendors of third party extensions, if you use any.

Read a few things, tried this and it worked. Delete all from the Bin directory, grab and copy all from another bin directory from a currently working site with the exact version. You may need to install a demo/test site and spin it up to get a good working copy, but this worked for me.

Restoring the bin folder was the solution for me

Ubuntu 16.4: monodoc doesn't work (libgluezilla is missing)

I'm new to mono and monodevelop.
I have Ubuntu 16.4 64-bit and installed both products as described on their respective websites.
The problem is: monodoc doesn't work.
It seems to depend on a package libgluezilla, which is not available anymore. (It's neither in the ubuntu nor in the mono package sources.)
I am surprised that I did not find anything about this problem on the web (at least not in the monodoc context) although I assume that others have this problem, too.
On http://www.mono-project.com/docs/gui/winforms/webbrowser I read that libgluezilla is related to gecko, which is only one of several supported browser engines. So I tried:
$ monodoc --engine GtkHtml
$ monodoc --engine WebKit
... (for all browser engines listed on the monodoc man page)
But in all cases monodoc complained about the missing libgluezilla.
Did you have this problem, too, and if yes, how did you handle it?
Do you just do without monodoc? (F1 seems not to work in monodevelop anyway. (In Visual Studio F1 launches the API browser for the currently selected class/method/....))
I do not really want to install any old .deb-archives, which might involve security issues.
Regards
I never use F1 myself... it never worked for me. Instead, I use the mono official documentation via web.

How to install previous releases of wix toolset

I am sorry for this stupid question, but I really need to install version 3.9 of the Wix Toolset. I can only find version 3.10 and 3.11. There is a link on the website to download older archives (also for 3.9rc2), but in this 1.2Gb file I cannot find an installer.
Please do not tell me to install the latest version, I have my own reasons for 3.9 that goes beyond the scope of this question. Any help is truely appreciated.
I should leave this for the WiX guys to answer, but maybe you are very busy and just need to test something?
Building it yourself from the sources isn't an option is it? https://github.com/wixtoolset/wix3/releases (towards the bottom, click the blue image - it says "Show 5 other tags" here). Sounds painful to work that out...
The 3.9 binaries seem to be here (looks like R1): https://github.com/continuoustests/ContinuousTests/tree/master/Installer/ContinuousTests.WixInstaller/wix39-binaries, but not as an installer file. Maybe you just need to test something quickly? If so, obviously please accept your own risk here, I am not sure what these files really are.
I hope I haven't linked to something that is problematic, just delete the whole answer if this should be the case (i.e the binaries pointed to should not ever be used - for some reason, etc...).
I recently had a need to get the old wix38.exe installer for legacy project maintenance, and it was a pain. Tom Blodget's comment above was the key on how to find the required file from the CodePlex archive.
Because there are likely to be other people in the future who require access to these things, I've created a github repository https://github.com/CasaDeRobison/wixtoolset-codeplex that includes the state of the git repository from the CodePlex archive and also makes available the various files from those releases at https://github.com/CasaDeRobison/wixtoolset-codeplex/tree/master/archived-stable-versions
Hopefully others will find this useful as well so that we don't all have to collectively puzzle this out if we have a need for this older software.

Account_asset module configuration

I want to use OpenERP to manage my assets. I downloaded the account_asset module here account_asset download. I also downloaded account_simulation which it depends on. I was able to install the module. I then decided to follow the tutorials here in order to configure my assets. Problem is that I can't see some fields that the tutorials is talking about e.g. the Depr. Expense Account field and without that field, I cannot do what I want to do. Please has anyone successfully used OpenERP for asset management? Did anyone encounter the same problem? How can I overcome this because I cannot move forward without having that field. I hope my question is clear enough
So the documentation you are using is not the good one because it's for 6.1. I do not find any links to configure assets in v6 but be careful because I heard that this module is unstable...
I think another account_asset module exists on launchpad but I can't retrieve the link, sorry.

Has anyone managed to use older Textmate bundles with Textmate2?

I specifically want to be able to use Ackmate bundle, peepcode (the new 'Go to file' seems good enough) and some other custom bundles with TM2.
I tried moving the existing bundles to a location
~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Managed/Bundles/Managed
which seem to contain all the new installed bundles, and a few other hack. But no luck yet.
I did manage to get the older themes working with TM2 though, with an approach similar to the one above.
EDIT:
I found this article on the topic.But still not able to get some older bundles to work.
http://blog.macromates.com/2011/locating-bundles/
Just copy all your bundles from ~/Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Bundles to ~/Library/Application\ Support/Avian/Bundles/
I did not find much success with the above. I guess its stil in 'Alpha'. Although you might try to drop some of the older bundles into
~/Library/Application Support/Avian/Pristine Copy/Bundles
to get it working with some hacks for now.I have managed to get Cucumber, Uber Glory and some of my custom bundles working.
Also you can follow the README of this Whitespace bundle to figure out which directory to place your new bundles in. This seems to be only bundle (not packaged) exculsively for TM2 so far.
The Textmate url that explains the difference between
Avian/Pristine Copy/Bundles/
and
Avian/Bundles/
is here:
http://blog.macromates.com/2011/locating-bundles/
It didn't recognize my old bundles at first, but the second restart of the app worked for me.
Since this is alpha software, I think that the mailing list is the best venue for your question. Either way, I haven't yet seen anything definitive on the backward compatibility of bundle support.

What happened to ManagedSpy?

ManagedSpy is supposed to be the .NET equivalent of Spy++, but somehow the download page is now not availeble any more.
Anyone who knows why?
Anyone that knows a replacement?
--jeroen
I've cloned the original ManagedSpy source code and maintaining the code in modern environments (for example, ported it to .NET4).
See project on GitHub.
You can still download it here, but the original website seems to be gone. There is however still an article in MSDN (from 2006) about ManagedSpy.
I've cloned the ForNeVeR's ManagedSpy source code and changed a bit to support 64-bit process. see https://github.com/slimzhao/ManagedSpy
Is there a newer equivlent tool? ManagedSpy fails completely on .NET 4.0 enabled machines because Native Images existing under \Windows\Assembly* and it tries loading those as .NET assemblies and fails.
