I have successfully installed the theme builder (so I think) but whenever I go into the layout manager or try to create a new layout I am presented with 2 alert boxes telling me "Session Error". I did not experience this with the previous version of the plug-in or when using Confluence under normal circumstances. Any thoughts as to why this may be happening would be appreciated.

Also .. which browser are you using?

I'm experiencing the same problem with Firefox 2.0.0.12 and with IE 6.0.
Confluence is in the version 2.7.1 and ThemeBuilder in 3.0.0

Alain's contacting the author of the DWR library to see if we can get it updated to resolve this issue at source.

Thanks!

Found (somewhere in adaptavist known issue's):
Even after enabling it, it shows in the Confluence log:
This seems to be related to your plugin's use of DWR, which isn't supported anymore (see http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFKB/Seeing+CSRF+Attack+Error+when+JSESSIONID+is+Changed)
Found a workaround at the Atlassian Forums
I don't have knowledge about possible negative impact of the workaround. What is the final solution?
Oh.. BTW I initially had installed version 4.0.2 of the Theme Builder.. also performed upgrade to 4.1.3, which states supported for Confluence 3.3. As you can see there is not yet an approved version for 3.4.

We are gradually removing the usages of DWR due to the session issues that it can uncover, however there are a lot of interfaces in builder which use it and this process will take some time.
You should use the server configuration workaround in the meantime.
