In J 2.5.9, VM2 2.0.21g, when viewing Orders in the admin panel, any type of record sort, whether it be changing the display number of items per page, or sorting by Name ascending, etc., redirects me to the admin control panel. Any ideas here?
Ok, let's think about what happens in the orders view when we sort. It does a select query on the orders table, with a join on the orders address table? What kind of error would be so bad that it just redirects to admin root? Or is there a redirect here that's broken?
There is a small error using for the order status -1, fixed in svn, sry. But it just shows an empty list using the sort order. But usually an error like you are describing happens, if there are too many messages thrown. Is your vmdebug activated? do you have joomla debug activated?
