After an install of a site sharper Zonka Current and then a direct update to 3.4.0 - All looked good except missing the css in Global configuration.  Applied the fix before and all is well.

NOTE: I had to provide the fix here in this forum, because the Joomla support forum has censored the word driver and it's replaced with the word [drive] whenever it is posted in normal text, in quotes, or in code brackets.

The issue with this is that I cannot successfully share the fix below, since both the file directory and the code has the word driver. Which of course would cause havoc if a person would use the provided code when some of the code words are being censored and/or replaced with another word.


When updating Joomla from version 3.3.x to 3.4.0 using the built-in updater in your Joomla Control Panel.

If you find your Global Configuration page look like this (see attachment) -- seems like the CSS is not getting fetched (missing) for this page's layout.


HOW TO FIX:
Source: https://github.com/mbabker/joomla-cms/c ... 818c99e4c2

NOTE: you may use Notepad or preferably NOTEPAD++ to edit the PHP file below.

OPEN: libraries/joomla/database/driver/pdomysql.php

FIND: around line: 102
CODE: SELECT ALL
   return in_array('mysql', PDO::getAvailableDrivers());


REPLACE WITH:
CODE: SELECT ALL
   return class_exists('PDO') && in_array('mysql', PDO::getAvailableDrivers());


CLOSE/SAVE.

Hello,

Thanks for posting your fix!
