wrong menue design after installation

[jojo-re]

Hello,
I've install the Part-DB-server 1.9 dev
with git composer and yarn on opensuse 15.4 (yes it has php8.2),
in /srv/www/htdocs/Part-DB-server

If change the APP_ENV=dev in the .env.local
it seams to be work, but the look is not correct.
I open part-db with the url from my apache2 server.
No drop-down menus / sidebar and the buttons are only on the left side.

In the /var/log i found no error
I have forgotten something?

Regards
Juergen

The APP_ENV=dev should not be required and you should not have these option unless you want to do development in Part-DB.

Your problem is most likely caused by some missing assets. What errors can you see In the browser console?
Have you run yarn build and php bin/console cache:clear afterwards?
Do you run part-db on the root of your we host (so on something like https://part-db.de/ instead of https://part-db.de/partdb?

Thanks for your answer :-)
Additional to my first post: I have on the same server an old Part-DB Version 0.6.
It works verry well with an normal / nice theme and design.

Must I have the virtual host enttry
or can I open by url from http://server02/Part-DB-server.1.8/public/ ?

I think the example file for virtual host is to old for the apache version 2.4.51
Have you another example to create a virtual host ?

But the Part-DB-1.9 works without errors in then log file, but nor sidebar no frames in the front end.
I open with the url http://server02/Part-DB-server.1.8/public/de/ on firefox browser.

I found some errors messages:
1, yarn build:
WARNING Be careful when using Encore.configureLoaderRule(), this is a low-level method that can potentially break Encore and Webpack when not used carefully.

After then I send chown -R wwwrun:www /srv/www/htdocs/Part-DB-server.1.8/
and it works withot sidebar and frames.
If I press the buttons, no response.

Please see the attached screeshot.

2. The package nodejs:
   I have installed nodejs one my opensuse 15.4 system with yast.
   more versions node, node-default, node12, node14, node16, node18
   note-default is version v18.18.2

3. If Part-DB started:
   Part-DB-1.9
   Version: 1.9.0-dev (master/1409d19)

It is highly recommended to set the DocumentRoot to the public folder of Part-DB (by configuring a seperate vhost). You get cleaner URLs and without a proper configuration, any user can access all (secret) files in the Part-DB folder.
If you really want to put Part-DB in a subdirectory (and use the /public/ folder), be sure to forbid access to the folders above the public/ folder. Also you will need to change some things in the webpack.config.js file to configure the path prefix:

If you have put Part-DB into a subdirectory on your server (like part-db/), you have to edit the file webpack.config.js and uncomment the lines (remove the // before the lines) .setPublicPath('/part-db/build') ( line 43) and .setManifestKeyPrefix('build/') (line 44). You have to replace /part-db with your own path on line 44.

Be sure to do a new yarn build and php bin/console cache:clear afterwards.

Just for documentation purposes: In the upcoming Part-DB 1.9 version, changing the publicPath in webpack.config.js will not be needed anymore, instead the path is detected automatically.
