No nodes visible under 'Content' node in content section
Our content section shows the top level node 'Content' but no other nodes beneath it, including the recycle bin. The only option available on right click of the 'Content' node is 'Reload nodes'.
The pages are visible in the web site and I can see them in the database tables. I can also search in the admin content area and find them, they display in the RH pane and can be changed and published but they refuse to display in the LH pane under the 'Content' node.
Has anybody had a similar issue and found a way out?
The solution I found was that as part of my development was that I had changed
<authentication mode="Forms">
to
<authentication mode="None">
In the web.config (as this was part of the single sign on instructions).
This allowed me to login but sent the treebuilder for the menus into a bit of a panic. I changed it back to <authentication mode="Forms"> and it works fine. So I'd check this is correct for you.
If this is not the solution then here is a second scenario where this has happened to a collegue
SQL Server was installed after the .NET framework and this did somethig to affect the Framework, he reinstalled the .net framework and it all started working again.
Thanks for that, our authentication is still set to Forms, in the case of the .Net framework we have a number of Umbraco sites running on that server and they all work fine except this one. Looking at your screen dump I can see that you still had the recycle bin appearing under the content folder, we don't have that showing and the context menu for the content folder only shows 'reload nodes' (which has no effect.
It seems to us that the tree builder is encountering a problem and bombing out when it tries to read from the database. We can force a rebuild of the cache and the user side of the site looks fine but we just can't get to the content to edit it. I can seach for pages in the seach box and find them, they populate the RH pane and we can edit and publish.
I don't know if there is a way to suppress the error handling to see the raw error data when the tree builder runs?
We have had no success finding an answer to this, even using Firebug to follow the low level operation simply shows no data returned for the tree builder function. We have rebuilt the site again from scratch.

Hi Roger,
Please find two scenarios where I have seen this exact behaviour, I hope one of them helps:
I was implementing a single sign on solution (see here our.umbraco.org/.../21077-Custom-Backoffice-logging-in). I was basically seeing this after I logged a user in http://yfrog.com/h3ate9p
The solution I found was that as part of my development was that I had changed
<authentication mode="Forms">
to
<authentication mode="None">
In the web.config (as this was part of the single sign on instructions).
This allowed me to login but sent the treebuilder for the menus into a bit of a panic. I changed it back to <authentication mode="Forms"> and it works fine. So I'd check this is correct for you.
