    All of the sudden File Manager won’t display the list of uploaded files.  Content > File Manager just brings up a screen with a red button that says “Delete Selected Files.”  If I press the button and confirm the delete, I get an error that no file was selected. 

    Previously uploaded files still appear on the site and I can add files through File Upload in Matrix.  But I can’t access them through File Manager.

    Using build 20100810.

    Thanks,
    Nathan

    Sorry, doesn’t say that no file was selected.. says “There was a problem deleting one or more file(s). Please review the file list below.”  But there’s no list, just the delete button.

    When you say “all of the sudden”, does that means it’s been working before? Can you try to upload a fresh set of files (paying special attention to CP theme fields) just so we can rule out file corruption?

    Thanks for getting back to me Ingmar.

    Yep, it was working great before.  I was in the middle of adding and cropping new images when this happened.  After I added an image and navigated away from the file manager, upon return it gave me problems.  I logged out and logged back in several times with no luck… just the big red delete button.

    I just went in to try and upload some files per your instructions and POOF, the file list is back again.  Really strange…not sure what to make of it.  I can now add and edit files from the File Manager, but not sure what you meant by

    paying special attention to CP theme fields

    Ingmar meant make sure you remembered to upgrade your themes folder.
