Tried both manual install and installing from within Drupal's admin menu - the presence of the theme folder in the sites/all/themes folder crashes drupal's Theme admin menu.

Hi, what do you mean when you say it 'crashes the theme admin menu', what exactly happens ?

Hi, thanks for responding.
I am using Windows 7 x64 with WAMP server 2.1, running drupal 7 (Jan 5) release on localhost.
I have installed other drupal 7 themes successfully.
Here is the error I get in Internet Explorer 8 when I click on "Appearance" menu from the admin toolbar:

Webpage error details

User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C; InfoPath.3)
Timestamp: Tue, 1 Feb 2011 17:23:48 UTC

Message: Permission denied
Line: 267
Char: 3
Code: 0
URI: http://localhost/konsolidated/Drupal/modules/overlay/overlay-parent.js?v...

On account of this error, the appropriate menu never gets loaded in the browser. After clicking on appearance, the browser window dims as if to overlay the Appearance settings, but then nothing happens. The program does not actually crash, the Appearance module of the admin menu just becomes unresponsive. Navigating elsewhere in the admin menu still works.

I'm hoping someone that understands the code better would be able to reproduce the problem. Wish I could be of more help. And thanks for porting this theme from Wordpress, it's pretty slick.

Hi, thanks for your detailed report. I have tried it with IE8 myself and didn't encounter any problems. In your error message there is a "permission denied" for the overlay module. Just wondering .. if you disable the overlay module (if you go to modules and uncheck the overlay module and save the settings) does the error dissapear?

(btw ... disabling the overlay module makes the backend much speedier)

No dice, even tried a clean Drupal 7 install. IE8 "cannot display the webpage". I will try on a live Drupal 7 install instead of on localhost.

Just to figure out if this is a browser issue ... have you tried if it works with firefox or another browser?

Got it working on a live site running PHP 5.2.5 and IIS7.
Thanks for the help, and again, thanks for a great port. I will report back if I figure out the localhost issue.
