Maybe a 3rd party extension is doing this,

• inside Joomla root, edit file: configuration.php

Find line with "$error_reporting", and (temporarily) set like:

public $error_reporting = 'development';

• then revisit the Global setting , a PHP fatal should appear
• in rare cases it will not appear if inside a script TAG , or inside other hidden HTML, then do "view HTML source" and scroll to the bottom of it, hopefully the error will be there, otherwise you may have to check the web server log

Usualy this is caused because you have upgraded from a version that used different css. Just refresh your BROWSER cache

Please use forum.joomla.org to find the solution (probable forgot to refresh your browser) for your issue. This repository is for software issues, not issues in your infrastructure.

Request this to be closed.

Well by the looks of it, none CSS file is in effect it may well be a PHP fatal error,

• also it is happening in Global settings, if it was CSS issue, then the menu would not appear correctly in previous screens too, right ?

I agree that this is better posted to forum.joomla.org and not here !

• this can be due to a 3rd party extension
• so such posts should be posted here only after confirming an error / issue inside Joomla CMS code by posting at forum.joomla.org, as this is not a support forum, right ?

Hello guys, thanks for reaply.

I have checked that Is not a problem of update..

As for the mistake, I checked the file "error_log" and found nothing about this problem. It makes me think it could be a problem of javascript, and yes.. this problem only occurs in the menu "Global Settings"

Regards!

Did you try what i suggested about enabling error reporting ?

Hello, here three people in total have the same problem: http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=708&t=902727

And cant enable the error Reporting cuz css does not load, not display the buttom for save.
in error_log can see this error: /public_html/libraries/vendor/joomla/string/src/phputf8/mbstring/core.php on line 41

What do you think about this error?

Regards!

@adriannx

you have missed my instructions,

• you do not need to save any form

Inside Joomla root, edit file: configuration.php
Find line with "$error_reporting", and (temporarily) set like:

public $error_reporting = 'development';

then revisit the Global setting , a PHP fatal should appear

Hello ggppdk thanks for reply,

Can see this error: Fatal error: Class 'JdDatabase' not found in /home/inchjsok/public_html/libraries/joomla/database/driver/jdiction_mysqli.php on line 37

/home/inchjsok/public_html/plugins/system/section/section.php on line 27

Best Regards!

Ok it seems there is a JDiction system plugin called "section"

• you can try going to Joomla plugin manager and disabling it

or uninstalling it via extension management

Hello, but i no have that plugin installed, because I uninstalled the extension jdiction. Cant find..

Regards!

Maybe something went wrong with uninstalling, it was half-uninstalled

• possibly the system plugin "section" is NOT a plugin of JDiction
  the fact that it is calling Jdiction DB driver, does not mean that it is a jDiction plugin

• it can be of another extension, it maybe NEEDED , and something else may break after doing the following:

Try renaming:
/home/.../public_html/plugins/system/section/section.php
to
/home/.../public_html/plugins/system/section/section.bak

or backing up folder:
/home/.../public_html/plugins/system/section
and then deleting it.

• you should report your findings to the author of the extension (as this may be a bug of the extension's uninstall process)
• this does not seem to be a Joomla bug, this should be closed

Solved :)

PHP Fatal error: Class 'JdDatabase' not found in /~/libraries/joomla/database/[drive]/jdiction_mysqli.php on line 37, referer: http://~/administrator/index.php?option ... iew=manage

If I rename the jdiction_mysqli.php to ~.php__, the error has disappeared.

To solve the problem simply delete the file jdiction_mysqli.php

Located in: /~/libraries/joomla/database/[drive]/jdiction_mysqli.php

Thanks for the help ggppdk!

Best Regards!
