Hello,
we get the same exception as described here:
In our Confluence 5.1.5 installation (upgraded from 4.3.6) the confluence 5 sidebar disappears when we access a public space as "anonymous" user.
If we login with a wiki user the sidebar of this space appears without problems.
If I change the theme of this space to "Documentation Theme" the sidebar appears for the anonymous user also.
Changing the theme of this space back to the Confluence default theme makes the sidebar disappear again for the anonymous user and throws an excption in getHtml [plugin.descriptor.web.ConfluenceWebInterfaceManager]
You can try it yourself:

Please help me fix this - we need a working sidebar for public personal spaces.
Thanks,

Apply documentation theme.

Yes changing the space theme to documentation theme makes the sidebar visible again - I've already tried this - but the default theme looks better.
Answering Jing Hwa:
But nothing makes the sidebar of my personal space visible.
Furthermore I tried to verify this on two other (10 user) Confluence Wikis - same result !
So this is very likely a bug - how to reproduce:
Then logout our use another browser to view the just created personal space as anonymous. On all my three conflunece Wikis I get the same failure - when using the default theme a public personal space has no sidebar.
Otherwise a normal (not personal) public space doesn't have this problem - only public personal spaces suffer from the disapearing siderbar - at least on my three Wikis (5.1.4, 5.1.5)

HI there,
Judging from the symptom, this should be related to some customisation that are made in the global template. Please create a fresh space and try the following:
Try to check the page after each step. This will help us to identify the root cause of this issue.
Kind Regards,

Thanks for your suggestions - what I've done so far:
Checked and removed the customizations - there was indeed a Custom HTML "at end of the BODY"
I've not enabled "Safe Mode" for the addons.
The failing space from above
https://wiki.aau.at/display/~ghoch/Gerald+Hochegger+Home is still failing.
Then I created a new space with the default theme:
https://wiki.aau.at/display/testghoch/Testspace+Ghoch+Startseite
In this new space the sidebar appears correctly !
So it seems the "Custom HTML" is still somehow included in the failing space.
Can I remove the "Custom HTML" from an existing space ?
Should I recreate the failing space ?
Greetings,
Gerald

Seem like there is some customisation in the space itself. Please try the following in the affected space:
Again, try to check the page after each step.
