  Zikula 1.1.2
  
  Module installed with no visible problems.
  
  Add New Page (ok)
  - Page Title
  - Select Page Layout

  Edit Page opens, but Browser reports 'Error on Page', as follows:

  ==========
  
  I can 'Add new content', 'Save' and View the Results, but cannot Edit any Content. There's more pathology, but I get the feeling that something fundemental is going wrong rather than just bits and pieces so I won't take up any more space for now. I see so little pathology reported regarding the Content Module (well, nothing like this that I can see) that I suspect I have missed something important, or am doing something stupid, but I'm buggered if I know what it is.
  
  Have deleted, re-downloaded, re-installed with identical results.
  
  Clues...?

  How did you guess? IE8.
  
  p.s. I get the same results with Firefox, Opera and Chrome, just not all the Error messages (just the things not working...).

  Something was niggling at the back of my mind about this. The 1.1.2 installation was an upgrade from 0.7.6.4 (using the upgrade distro). Although I haven't experienced ANY problems with it so far, I decided to do a test on a fresh 1.1.2 install from scratch.
  
  Guess what? Content seems to work seamlessly (so far). Anyways, there's a big difference with the Admin functions.
  
  Now, it would be a real PAIN to have to set this Site up again using a new installation (there's a HUGE amount of content generally), so wazzup doc?
  
  If you need me to dive in and get more intel, then just let me know.
  
  p.s. Addendum: I have tested the Module with the Vanilla install of 1.1.2 and it seems to function fine. Some small niggles, but nothing show stopping. Quite serviceable!.
  
  There's a big difference between them when creating and editing a Page. For example, the Drag 'n Drop functionality works in the vanilla install and not on the upgrade. Edit works on the vanilla not the upgrade. Menu's appear on the vanilla not the upgrade. Formatting of the Admin screen(s) are different. Smacks of some background processes not working (or broken/not installed) on the upgrade.
  
  It was a punishing job just upgrading the Site from 0.7.6.4 to 1.1.2. If I have to set up again from scratch, I think my dog would suffer terribly, and you wouldn't want that would you?...

  Off the top of my head the two things I could things of would be
  
  1) Database not updated to UTF-8
  
  2) Some files from the older versions sitting around causing a problem.

  Thanks for that ccandreva.
  
  1) First question, should a 1.1.2 installation be UTF8? (Just for confirmation). Looking at the DB, I noticed that the files are still latin1. Moreover, looking at the fresh test install I did of 1.1.2 (not an upgrade install), the DB is also latin1. If they should be UTF8, then something is screwy (which could be me ).
  
  2) I have that suspicion. I am debating whether to try and hack at it or take a more dramatic step - basically re-install 1.1.2 as a fresh installation, and dump the old DB. That would eliminate any 'old' files sitting around etc. I can't get enthusiastic for hacking the old one. It is a big site and needs to be stable for the future, and there's a fair bit of work to get it working with 1.2 +.
  
  Ho hum. No pain, no gain they say?

  Well, I decided to bite the bullet and scrap the upgrade. Did a fresh installation of 1.2.3 and migrated the Data by hand. Consequently, the Content Module (3.1.0) is working as slick as you like. Now I just feel like I have come out of a long dark tunnel... but it will pass...

  Only problem I've personally had with Content, and it continues to this point, is drag and drop not working well in Firefox.
