First check: Are your permission settings still ok? Depending on how you've copied the site to the live server, permissions sometimes get reset, causing all kinds of weird and strange errors (yours being one of those)... Most of the times, re-applying the permissions does the trick.
I did have this issue before. When building the Nav tree, if Umbraco runs into an error, it can cause this. In my case my ISP didn't properly register ASP.Net 2.0 which is a requirement of umbraco.
Did you make sure the production server is set to run ASP.Net 2.0 for that Website? You can set it using IIS I believe or you can run the Aspnet_regiis.exe tool provided with each version of ASP.Net. The following link describes the tool and its command line options.
Cannot view content tree?
Hi,
After putting my Umbraco site on a live server (IIS 5) I can no longer use the admin screen as the tree for content etc is not showing up.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Scott

Let us know if that helps.

Thanks for the reply guys,
The site is defo running under ASP.Net 2 according to IIS.
I have allowed the Network Service and IUSR full permissions to the following (NTFS permissions):
http://umbraco.org/documentation/books/important-files-and-folder-structure/permissions
Is this all that is required?
Is there a program which can change the permissions for the correct Umbraco folder?
Thanks
Scott
Hi Scott,
Maybe this blog post can help checking for/setting the right permissions?

Turns out it was a wacky permissions thing - my permissions were not iterating through the child elements,
Cheers guys
