very very strange thing happened....i was modifying some taxonomy terms and suddenly the admin menu was just full of links that were on the page itself. i flushed , even reinstalled admin menu, even installed an older version, it somehow changed slightly, now it shows some of the admin links and half of the others. very confusing...any clues??

Did you run update.php?

oookkk
sorry, i remembered that i had configured/hacked the menu.inc to allow relative urls in menus...but that was long ago, guess it had to rebuild as i moved stuff and that triggered it...weird.
theres gotta be a better way to do relative urls...

no wait, im still getting that same error, even though the menu is now working...what gives?

per update.php... nothing has really changed, it just did this from one moment to the next, and i am usisng the latest dev for 6, is it still advisable to update???

You always need to ensure that no database updates are left to run.

The error message you posted indicates that not all database updates for admin_menu 3.x have run, and thus, the {cache_admin_menu} table does not exist on your site.

yes, sorry for this 'scare', i uninstalled and reinstalled a fresh copy of the module and its now working again.

thanks so much for your fast replies!! :)
