So we started a new project using the JA Portfolio Quick Start for Joomla! 2.5 on our WAMP 2.2D server. Everything seems to have installed normally with no issues noted until we begin installing extensions. During the installation of Akeeba Admin Tools we are receiving an error:

JTableMenu: :_getNode Failed –
Error building Admin Menus

We also get a similar error when attempting to create new Main Menu items:

Save failed with the following error: MenusTableMenu: :_getNode Failed –

We have already performed normal Joomla! 2.5 installations with their default templates without any of these issues so something is amiss here using this Quick Start file and I need some help on getting this corrected.

I found the solution through another thread dealing with this issue which involves phpMyAdmin. It appears that db menu fields are not present upon installation of the QuickStart file for the JA Portfolio template and must be created via running the following from within phpMyAdmin:

From the SQL tab, paste in the following:
INSERT INTO `DATABASE_NAME`.`j16_menu` (`id` ,`menutype` ,`title` ,`alias` ,`note` ,`path` ,`link` ,`type` ,`published` ,`parent_id` ,`level` ,`component_id` ,`ordering` ,`checked_out` ,`checked_out_time` ,`browserNav` ,`access` ,`img` ,`template_style_id` ,`params` ,`lft` ,`rgt` ,`home` ,`language` ,`client_id` ) VALUES ( ‘1’, ”, ‘Menu_Item_Root’, ‘root’, ”, ”, ”, ”, ‘1’, ‘0’, ‘0’, ‘0’, ‘0’, ‘0’, ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’, ‘0’, ‘0’, ”, ‘0’, ”, ‘0’, ‘0’, ‘0’, ‘*’, ‘0’)

Make sure you change, DATABASE_NAME and the j16_menu table name to what your installation is showing, then click GO. Logout of your Joomla Admin then back in again and it will now work properly.

I’m not sure why this issue would be present in newly installed Quick Start files but perhaps the JA team can answer this.

Having the same problem but with Joomla 2.5 and Ja Tiris

Ja team – can you give us an answer please – is this an error with your quickstart package or something else?

Cheers 🙂

this is my experience:
if you use quickstart to install joomla and don’t install sample data you have to use the solution from wineblue2
it worked for me with ja social
