Hi,

After the latest update of our Sharepoint 2019 and following reboot, a lot of our Sharepoint site is not working.

When we click to edit links on the site, try to open the uploaded Documents list, all we get is a blank page.

The links themselves work fine, and we have created a list called "Help Desk" which also works fine.

Can you please help

Best regards

John B.

    Hi
    I have made a temporary solution. My Sharepoint 2019 server is a virtual server and I have restored a backup from before security update and now everything works again.

    But that's not a solution, my Sharepoint server is now working without the latest security updates.

    I can stop the old copy and restart the Sharepoint server with the correct security updates again with the errors if it is easier to fix.

    What should I do??

    Best Regards

    John B

    The only work-around I've found so far is to disable "modern experience" for the entire site collection with PowerShell.

    #Site Collection Level
    Add-PSSnapin microsoft.sharepoint.powershell -ea 0
    $site = Get-SPSite http://spwfe
    
    #Disable modern Lists and libraries at the Site Collection Level
    $featureguid = new-object System.Guid "E3540C7D-6BEA-403C-A224-1A12EAFEE4C4"
    $site.Features.Add($featureguid, $true)
    

    Ref: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-sharepoint-blog/how-to-disable-the-modern-experience-in-sharepoint-2019/ba-p/303649

    Once I did that, all of my document libraries and lists came back. Obviously, they can only be viewed in "classic experience" now, but at least we're not seeing a blank page.

    Same issue! after the last SP 2019 update. Documents libraries all produce a blank page.

    The same issue occurs on all sites and web applications. Even on the Central Admin site. Please, Microsoft. We need a fix for this.

    We have installed both language dependent and independent CU. It is not working still. Site contents are not opening. I have also tried running psconfig. Still no luck. Please suggest us the fix.
