Comment 1 Heiko W. Rupp 2013-08-22 11:57:30 UTC 
Did you wait long enough?
Especially the first start takes very long (as the plugins are all parsed and the metadata stored in the DB).
Comment 2 Armine Hovsepyan 2013-08-22 12:48:25 UTC 
Yes, I did. Waited for long time, then refreshed, then closed and reopened browser. The same prototype null js exception visible and login layer not visible. The same time firefox worked without issues.
Comment 3 Heiko W. Rupp 2013-08-22 15:04:32 UTC 
IE7 is not supported (anymore) - even not by Microsoft. 
IE8 support is partial (the new graphs are not supported).
