SERVER configuration: LINUX 5.10.27-gentoo PHP 7.4.19 DB MariaDB 10.5.9
I upgraded my test system from Moodle Version 3.10.3 to 3.10.4 on this server, and it worked without issue.
Then I upgraded the production system. Not everything is working. I have purged all caches several times and have killed my browser and cleared its caches. Neither action has helped.
The website log lists no errors.
Issues:
1. Top line menu options (Course menu, alarms, messages, user dropdown menu) do not work. The icons exist and display properly, but nothing happens when they are clicked, other than a blue box appears. Clicking on the username creates a link "https://SITE-URL/moodle/?redirect=0#" but no dropdown occurs.
2. As administrator logged into the home page, the navigation menu is not expanding dropdown for Site Pages, but works to expand Site administration in the Administration box. However, submenus under site administration do not work.
3. The Site Administration page lists all tabs, but clicking on a tab has no effect. Using Search works to navigate to a particular page (i.e., purge cache), at which point the dropdown menu displays in the navigation bar.
4. Putting the system in full debug mode with html display turned produces no error messages when clicking on the user name and encountering the drop-down failure.
5. We are using the Boost theme as default for desktop. Changing to Classic did not solve the issue. Changing back to Boost did not solve the issue.
6. Editor icons to edit text entry fields are not working (there are blank boxes). Clicking on the boxes executes the code (e.g., I can toggle to HTML mode and back) but the icons are not showing up.
As far as I can tell, there are no differences in code between the test site (working) and the production site (broken), other than the configuration file. They are using different databases in the same database instance.
Any suggestions are welcome, as we are pretty much stuck right now.
