Problem with some plugins

Hello,
I have a strange problem with the configuration of
some of my plugins in the admin panel. Most of them show a correct detail page after choosing the plugin from plugin configuration in admin panel.
But some of them:
* serendipity_html_nugget_plugin
* serendipity_event_contactform
* serendipity_event_head_nugget
show only a part of the detail page. The configuration-content of the plugin is shown, but everything else, the header, the footer, the sidebar of admin panel and all style sheets are gone. Also there is no "save"-Button.
A quick look in the html-code shows, that the code is incomplete. What could I do?
Here is a screenshot of the working plugin:

Hi!
Usually this means a fatal PHP error, maybe also due to WYSIWYG editor. Can you check your PHP error log or turn on PHP errors?

In my .htaccess I switched display_errors=On and controlled it with phpinfo()
I still did not get any errors. I don't use WYSIWYG editors btw.
Any other idea?

Hi!
Fatal errors might still be concelead to you and hidedn in a Logfile, if you run PHP CGI.
This problem has been reported here a year ago or so by some people, I think it was related to WYSIWYG or some write permissions or so. I don' thave the time to do research on that, so if you can get a hold of the CGI error log, that should help...

I changed the location of the error_log-logfile and provoked an error to make shure, that is is working.
Calling the config of the plugins, did not create an error.

Have you an idea what to type in the search form to find the problem last year?
Is the CGI-error log the one I get by putting the following code into my .htaccess file, or is this the php-error log and a cgi-error log is something different?
Code: Select all
<IfModule mod_php.c>
php_value display_errors 1
php_value error_log /path_to_log/php_error.log
</IfModule>

Hi!
The CGI error log can usually be found within the Apache errorLog, or inside the syslogd facilities of a system.
How did you try to provoke an error? A fatal error could be as simple as "<?php fatal(); ?>".
Did you check that all s9y files are existing on your server? You might want to re-upload all the files of a fresh s9y version archive over your directory to make sure all files exist, specially those in /templates/default/...
HTH,
Garvin
