Stores -> Configuration dont work

[donyun]

I am installing Magento 2.1.8 in a new environment using Softaculous App installer in cPanel. 

Everything seems smooth and works except the Configuration panel.

when you go to Stores>Configuration, by default, the store view is Default Configuration. The left column is full of tabs..ie. General, Catalog, Customers, etc.. And each of those tabs have their owns settings that display in the right column. My problem is that none of those tabs expand (Catalog, Customers, etc.) So other than the very first 5 settings (Country Options, State Options, Locale Options, Store Information & Single Store Mode) I am unable to fully configure my store.

I had found few suggestions like;

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

php bin/magento cache:flush

php bin/magento indexer:reindex

php bin/magento setup:upgrade

or

Open app/etc/di.xml and find the virtualType name="developerMaterialization" section. In that section you'll find an item name="view_preprocessed" . You can modify it by changing the contents from Magento\Framework\App\View\Asset\MaterializationStrategy\Symlink to Magento\Framework\App\View\Asset\MaterializationStrategy\Copy

after that Delete the files under pub/static to get read of any existing symlinks. You may want to be careful not to delete the .htaccess file.

None of above worked for me.

Is there any solution??? Please?

FYI, here are some server environment;

PHP Version: 7.0.23

MySQL: 5.6

@donyun,

This may be permission issue for your var and pub/static folder. Please give full permission to your var and pub/static folder from root SSH.

After apply root permission to your system path run below command,

php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
php bin/magento cache:flush

Remove browser cache and check again.

if issue solved, Click Kudos/Accept as Solutions.
