I recently installed the latest version of Umbraco (UmbracoCms.7.7.6) on my web hosting site. I had a few issues with install, mostly to do with setting permissions, but eventually I got it installed and up and running with the demo site. I am using a SQL Server backend.
The problem I am having is that when I try to log in to the back office, I get a blank page that just shows {{menuDialogTitle}} at the top. I can't even get to the login prompt.
The demo website that has been installed works fine though. I can browse it, all images and links work fine, etc.
The browser developer console is giving me the following error
Error: Argument 'Umbraco.MainController' is not a function, got undefined
at cb (DependencyHandler.axd?s=L3VtYnJhY28vbGliL2px...=Javascript&cdv=1:3)
I checked that the js files were all there, in particular the angular ones.
The umbraco.controllers.js file is in the folder /umbraco/js. So I'm not sure why it is complaining.
It's going to be hard to diagnose, but a few things to try:
Ensure you have all copies of essential Umbraco files on the server - if you can diff with the contents of a zip download then you may notice if you have any files missing.
Run the site with debug="true" if not already - this stops Umbraco from bundling back-end files.
Ensure Umbraco/IIS has write permission to App_Data folder. Are you able to check if /App_Data/TEMP/ contains files? If it does, you can also clear this folder out, as it removes all cached indexes and JS.
Are you able to look in /App_Data/Logs/ at the files there? These may contain some useful error messages.
You can also extend the logging by editing /config/log4net.config and changing priority to debug ie. change

Any help would be appreciated.
