Hello,

I just installed commons and the theme seems to not load properly.

I have the FollowSymLinks disabled. Could that be the problem?

Is the status report showing any errors? What is loading? Possibly a file system permission issue, since CSS/JS aggregation is turned on by default.

Hi it start working when I disabled css compression on admin>>>performance>>>css compression

Well I had to go to Site

Well I had to go to Site configuration > Performance and then Optimize CSS files: Disabled and now my site looks good.

Is there a way to make it work with Optimize CSS files Enabled?

If CSS/JS optimization isn't

If CSS/JS optimization isn't working, that usually means either your temporary file directory or site files directory is not writable. In order to compress the CSS/JS documents, Drupal needs to be able to save the compressed files inside your sites directory (usually located at sites/default/files).

Are you working locally or with a host? If you're using a host, I'm sure you can simply ask them to fix it for you.

If you're local, assuming you're running Linux, try chmod 777 on the files directory. Navigate to admin/settings/file-system for information about which directories you're currently using.

I found the solution.

You just have to convert all your css files in unix/utf8 and it's done. 

Hope it helps

Thank you for the reply, but

Thank you for the reply, but which css files do I have to convert? And is this logical? So drupal commons only works in windows?

css files UTF-8

I also had the same problem and it was solved by disabling CSS Optimizaition.

checked all my CSS under /profiles/drupalcommons/themes, and all are UTF-8.

which specific files have to be changed to UTF-8?

Well dear friends - i also try to do the fixes you advice me to do! I will have a look at the change of the files...

you mentioned: to do the  fix by disabling CSS Optimizaition. You checked all the CSS under /profiles/drupalcommons/themes, and all are UTF-8.

 

But one question left: which specific files have to be changed to UTF-8?
 

love to hear from you!
