Left Navigation bar issue
Hi, I am using MOSS 2007 with Form based Authentication. I am a Site collection Administrator. I have created one custom list. After creating a List when I went to Navigation Settings (Site Settingsà Modify All Site Settings) it was showing me only Global Navigation and Current Navigation headings. It didn’t show me the contents under the Current Navigation. It started appearing after I did IIS Reset. After adjusting the list settings on the navigation, when I browse the home page, it started giving me an error o the on the left navigation bar and it was not showing any items on the left navigation menu. It also started showing items on the left menu after IIS Reset. I also noticed one thing that when I click site Actionsàsite settings, it is showing me only 1) Modify all site settings (enabled) and 2) People and Groups (enabled) 3) Modify Navigation (disabled). Why the 3<sup>rd</sup> option is disabled. I would appreciate any help on this.Thanks,Sam.

Is this a publishing site? If so then one option is to disable and re-enable the publishing features to see if it fixes the issue. If you choose to do this using the command line then the commands are listed here:http://himanisharma.blogspot.com/2009/06/stsadm-activate-publishing-publishing.html

Ummm...reboot? IIS Reset does not restart the sharepoint services...why did you need to do the reset/what else was changed? Might want to peruse the event and sharepoint logs. Does anyone else have rights to this server/ were they making changes? What you've described wouldn't normally cause this sort of problem.

Hi, For always using IIS Reset, I think there are some crashes in the web server or database connections. Please turn to event logs (event viewer )and ULS logs (..\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\LOGS folder with the name format of ServerName-Date-Timestamp.log as default configuration)) to analysis to narrow the issue scope. Hope it is helpful!Seven
