HI Gordon
In answer to your questions; no and no. However, without knowing how you did the install I can't tell what may or may not have been done. The menu list is driven by the database so the first thing to do is run the database updater to make sure everything that should be on there is indeed there. At the linux console do
sh /opt/sark/scripts/update_db.sh
Close your browser completely (or clear its history) and ensure that you are logged into the sark app as admin and try again.
If that doesn't fix it then I need you to post the output from some SQL. Just copy and paste the following into the linux CLI
sqlite3 /opt/sark/db/sark.db "select un.pkey, up.panel_pkey, p.classname, p.displayname, pg.groupname from user un inner join UserPanel up on up.user_pkey = un.pkey inner join panel p on up.panel_pkey = p.pkey inner join panelgrouppanel pgp on p.pkey = pgp.panel_pkey inner join panelgroup pg on pgp.panelgroup_pkey = pg.pkey where un.pkey='admin' order by pgp.panelgroup_pkey";
There you go; nice easy little bit of SQL for you.
