A whitelist of *.html files is needed since Piwik 2.2.0. Does the All Websites Dashboard or the website selector work for you? In case *.html files are blocked they should not work either

In 60f40c9: Maybe this would help, taht the htaccess files white list html files refs #5148

Does the
- All Websites Dashboard or
- the website selector
work for you?

both work fine!

message keeps the same after update to b4...

deactivate and reactivate the Zen Plugin after b4 update doesn't help....

In 7c2bab3: refs #5148 in the error notification display which url cannot be loaded

That's very weird. I just might a change to display the name of the file that cannot be loaded. Can you open this file, probably http://$yourdomain/$yourpath/plugins/ZenMode/angularjs/quick-access/quick-access.html in the browser window without any issues?

If not, the file is blocked by your server for some reason. Maybe a webserver restart fixes the issue? If the browser opens the file without any issues can you send us credentials with view permission to your Piwik installation to hello @ piwik.org? Otherwise we cannot solve this issue.

thank you for your work.

Just made some tests:

1. installing this version:
   piwik-latest.zip 14-May-2014 08:16 9.4M
   from http://builds.piwik.org/
   => Dashboard is also gone as you has described above

2. Installing
   the version from git hub
   https://github.com/piwik/piwik/
   available at 14.05. 20:30
   => dashboard is there (same as with b4)

BUT with all 3 tested versions the file
... /plugins/ZenMode/angularjs/quick-access/quick-access.html
could not be opened (403)

Do I have to ask the admin to make it accessible (managed server)
but why is dashboard working with some versions?
is it not possible to use this "feature" for ZEN-files too? ;-)

@hpvd
It may also be related to a recent bug fix I made.

Two things I can think of:

• could you try to delete file plugins/.htaccess folder -> maybe it helps?
• check your server error log file, maybe you will find that the HTML file could not be served and it will be an error there.

Indeed, it's very weird the dashboard html file works but the ZenMode html file not. Maybe the dashboard file was made accessible by a sys admin earlier? Did you have time to look into this meanwhile? Without having a look on the server/.htaccess files/logs I can currently not really explain this behavior :(

after some searching:
the folders within plugins/ZenMod did not have read permissions.
The files I checked before were fine.

Do not know why and how this could happen because I only installed complete Piwik updates and never worked on permissions..

=> but: know it works fine!
Many thanks for your help!

ticket solved!
