Cannot not get the “Themes” page in Joomla 1.7

I had an issue recently on one of my sites… www.spartanconnection.com.  We had an issue getting to the “Themes” section to update a rockettheme.  Just kept throwing an error about not getting to com_templates.

We ended up going to “Global Configuration > Server” and setting the “Error Reporting” to Maximum and tried to go to the “Template” section again.

This time we got an error telling us we had a “DOMdocument” issue…

Turns out that php-xml was not installed on the hosting server.  Once we did a “yum -y php-xml” everything worked great.

First and foremost you need to get the MUI version of Adobe Reader X… HERE

Also you will need to install the “ThinApp” capture tool

1.  Start the tool “ThinApp Setup Capture”

2.  click “Next”

3.  Click “Prescan”… This will take a snapshot of what is already installed.

Fun story… Doing a data center move for a company that has AT&T metro-ethernet.  AT&T is a pivotal part of this move as the data connection has to be moved.  This change our date 2 times putting us OVER 1 month behind on the project.  Then on the afternoon of the move August 12, … 2 hours before we are scheduled to turn the connection up (Equipment move already in process from 2 hours away) AT&T says… “Hey, don’t move the equipment yet, your connection is not ready”.  I got an email from AT&T yesterday August 24th saying that my connection is ready…lol.  Thank you TekLinks for getting us a data connection ready in ~2 hours.  AT&T… thanks for attempting to take a large company down and then gouge them when they try to disconnect.  Especially when it is your fault they had to go with another provider.  We will never do business with you (AT&T) again with any company.
