Dropdown Editor Issue

Hi All,

I am trying to edit the Type dropdown list in the more information section of one of the accounts (as shown in the attachment).

I am going to Admin > Dropdown Editor > account_type_dom.

But all I see is null.

I can’t create a dropdown list as it displays null.

Can someone please advise as to whether or not I am doing this correctly or this an issue ?

Kindest regards,

Samuel Rose.

Ensure your permissions are set correctly and run a Quick Repair & Rebuild in Admin -> Repair and execute any changes(bottom of page).

Hi Will,

Could you confirm what the permissions should be as my Technical Director installed SuiteCRM and he wants me to do some edits.

I have already ran the Quick Repair and Rebuild and it came back with nothing so it is most likely a permission issue but I wouldn’t know were to start.

If you could help me that would be great.

Hi Sam,

What is your server setup? Permissions vary dependent on your environment/setup.

Thanks,

Will.

Hi Will,

Server Details are:

Unix based hosting
PHP Vesrion 5.3.29
MySQL Version 5.1.73

If there is anything else you need to know please let me know.

Sorry for the late reply.

Sam.

Hi Sam,

General linux/unix permission setups are as follows:

sudo chown -R owner:group .

sudo chmod -R 755 .

sudo chmod -R 775 cache custom modules themes data upload config_override.php

With the owner and group values being those of your web server(may be apache, www-data, or a variety of other values).

Thanks,

Will.

Hi Will,

Thank you but unfortuantly the permissions were already set to 0775.

I did a Quick Repair and rebuild and below is the log:

Thanks,

Did you set the recommended permissions?

Higher/more open permissions do not always resolve issues.

Also, you need to set the owner/group in your config.php file.

If this doesn’t work, I would advise checking the sugarcrm.log and your servers php error.log for more details.

Thanks,

Will.
