As admin I changed the Theme for our Plone server from 'default' to the already installed 'tableless'. Since then I cannot access our server and end up with the following Site Error:

Site Error
An error was encountered while publishing this resource
Debugging Notice
Zope has encountered a problem publishing your object.
Cannot locate object at: http://sara.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/front-page/document_view

I can restart the server with '/bin/instance restart' but the Site Error persists. Any idea how to change back to the default theme and access the server again? Thanks

I was going to give some other suggestions, but I see that the
following works:
http://sara.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/?plone_skin=Plone%20Default
or
http://sara.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/?plone_skin=Plone Default

You may need to keep adding that part on each url until you have fixed
it.


I will leave my original suggestions for completeness sake:


Hm, I see that not even the login_form is found:
http://sara.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/login_form

If you are still logged in, you can go to the Zope Management
Interface (ZMI):

http://sara.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/manage_main

That should still work.  Then go to portal_skins, then the properties
tab and fix it.

If you are nog logged in anymore, then you need to login one level
higher than Plone, namely in the zope root.  I hope your user account
has access there and that you can reach that part of the website;
read: you should be able to reach the port number that the zope
instance is running on.

Cheers,

Thanks, Maurits. Your advice helped me to see the login page. But I am unable to proceed and login. After entering user name and password I am being returned to the login page ...
