MII Workbench - Navigation Editor Loading Problem

[Former Member]

Hi All,

On my MII Workbench,I am unable to launch Navigation Editor.

I don't have an issue in opening transactions,web and other content.

Even I am able to open Project Navigation Editor & Link Editor from Workbench Tools,Only Navigation Editor throws error.

A screen grab of the error is given below:

Kindly refer the java console log for the errors.

Hi Vinoth,

As far as I see from the ticket created on this, you have managed to resolve it. Thanks a lot, for sharing the solution with us. Let me write it here also, it may be helpful for other customers also.

So, it is important to check if the Navigation menu has been created in the correct way, in the meaning of "User" and "Role".

Best Regards,
Janos
