GSA 23.2.0 and GSA 23.1.1 doesn't show the menu bar as expected

[MocioF]

I am updating gentoo ebuild for gsa. Now on gentoo we are using gsa v. 23.0.0.

I have "built" both gsa v. 23.2.0 and gsa v. 23.1.1 and on both versions the menu bar is not rendered as expected (see pictures below).

The gsa gentoo's ebuild uses the gsa-node-modules tar archive.

I have tested both gsa newer versions with gsad v. 22.9.1, 22.10.0 and 22.11.0 but the problem seems to be unrelated to gsad.

On gsa 23.0.0 the menu bar shows as expected:

Expected behavior

gsa-23.0.0

Actual behavior

gsa-23.1.1
gsa-23.2.0

Environment

Operating system:
Linux 6.6.38-gentoo
DISTRIB_ID="Gentoo"

Installation method / source:
source

Edited:
I noticed there is no static/ dir in the build directory after building gsa, but there is no static/ dir even in the packaged dist files.

Just to let you guys know, I am running into the same problem (i.e. limited menu links) after installation of Greenbone/Openvas following the official installation manual at https://greenbone.github.io/docs/latest/22.4/source-build/index.html#greenbone-security-assistant with GSA_VERSION=23.2.1 and GSAD_VERSION=22.11.0.

However, when entering the missing links directly into the browser, like /users, /feedstatus, /scanconfigs, /tasks, etc. it is all there functioning correctly! Seems like the bug only has to do with the menus being empty or non-existing.

I then tried installing directly from github gsa version 24.1.0 and gsad version 24.1.0, with same results, i.e. menus are empty/nonexisting.

My system is Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS

@asmaack
nobody answered here, however the problem has been resolved in gsa-23.3.0 and in gentoo I don't have the issue with gsa-24.1.0

[asmaack]

Then something must be afoot with the installation instructions for Ubuntu 22.04 and gsad.
Surely, others must have hit into this same problem on Ubuntu 22.04 and gsa/gsad 24.1.0?

Hi, the UI got an overhaul with 24.0.0 and we wont work on the old UI anymore. Please update to a newer release.

When downstream (for example Kali) doesn't include a fix, please report the issue to downstream and request a package update.
