I am a newbie to Umbraco and although I have a lovely working copy on my local machine, the version I have uploaded onto the shared server does not render any of the ajax used to interact with the cms, for example, the site directory on the left hand side does not have the drop down arrows and you can't right click the folders to get the option to create/delete a page? The site works fine though. I have spoken with the host thinking that maybe they do not have asp.net ajax installed but they do. I am not really sure what else to do, any help would be greatly appreciated!
You'll need to provide some more information on how it's not working. Try using something like Firebug to inspect the AJAX requests for the tree and provide any error messages listed
return to the Plesk domain control panel and click File Manager
open the httpdocs folder
repeat the following steps for the folders: app_code, bin, config, css, data, masterpages, media, python, scripts, umbraco, usercontrols, xslt and the file web.config.
Thank you so much skiltz, I now have it up and working fine! I am using openhost and up until now I have had no issues, although this is the first time I have used an umbraco site with them. I knew it wouldn't be a major, thanks to help from guys like you.
Cheers mate, and thanks again for all your help, it is much appreciated!
Ajax not working on shared server
Hi there,
I am a newbie to Umbraco and although I have a lovely working copy on my local machine, the version I have uploaded onto the shared server does not render any of the ajax used to interact with the cms, for example, the site directory on the left hand side does not have the drop down arrows and you can't right click the folders to get the option to create/delete a page? The site works fine though. I have spoken with the host thinking that maybe they do not have asp.net ajax installed but they do. I am not really sure what else to do, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Umbraco version: 4.0.2.1
ASP.NET version: 3.5
Here is a copy of my web.config file as well
Make sure the file permissions are set correctly. NETWORK SERVICE needs full control to a number of directories.

I did think it may be a permissions issue. Can you tell me which directories need changing, is there a list available anywhere?
Thanks
Taken from http://umbraco.org/documentation/books/installing-v400-on-a-plesk-shared-host
set up file permissions
Also which web host are you using? I've used Net24, Digiweb, Webdrive in NZ with no issues.
