Object not found in ACP

[wildweaselmi]

Very strange but after I install vBulletin without any errors or issues, I log into ACP fine and when I click on any of the options on the left (for example vBulletin Options) I get

Object not found! (exact error captured in attached screenshot)

Any ideas?

Thinking it may be an issue with folder/file rights I changed everything to 777 and still the same issue with Object not found! as shown above.

This is really confusing and I have no idea.

This may be due to mod_security. Please see this thread for the fix:

Thanks, but this seems to have not fixed it.

This is a new install with nothing new added. I'm using XAMPP to supply Apache, PHP and mySQL. I have done this before as a test and it worked just fine. Not sure why its not working this time.

Enable phpinfo in the Admin CP, then provide the URL to your forums. This may help us troubleshoot this problem.

Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Server Settings and Optimization Options -> Public phpinfo() Display Enabled

I eventually figured out the error of my ways. typo in the config.php file for the dbname. Reinstalled with config.php corrected to point to the correct dbname and everything works fine.

When I was in phpadmin and saw that the typo db had 162 entries and the one I thought was the correct db had 0 entries, i knew what went wrong.

Thank you for your help anyhow.
