This is weird.
I was just checking some stuff on local, and all links in all admin menus are totally fine
except for the link to ?action=admin;area=smileys and any sub-areas under that. Any of those links causes a server error.
Ok, so what is special about the menu link to the smileys section of admin? Why would that one apparently cause Apache to flip out, while no other links on the site have any problems?
And no, there are no errors in the forum error log.
ETA: Apache error log shows this:

Would you mind trying with 1.1?
Is it due to php version - 5.3?
PHP 5.3 should be ok. It meets the basic Elk requirements: https://github.com/elkarte/Elkarte/wiki/Requirements
It's running MySQL 5.5.20 as well, which should also be fine.
Sure, but I'll have to set one up. I only have 1.0 on local at the moment. Will do it tomorrow. Too fried tonight. :)
Will also update local to the latest version of Vertrigo.
Found this one but not sure whether it is relevant - http://forums.modx.com/index.php/topic,64107.msg363088.html#msg363088
Interesting.
Could be something related to the cache.
/me is always more convinced file-based cache should disappear. nods
I think I tried clearing the cache. Will try it again now just to make sure.
Oh and I haven't set up 1.1 yet. Been busy with other stuff. Blame Spuds and his themes. :P
Clearing cache doesn't help. Apache still flips out.
The problem described there is about php trying to create a file with characters not allowed in the name, you should try disabling the cache. ;)
