Answer 1

It's looks like you have not configured ROLE_SONATA_ADMIN for your user; Or just map it in security.yml, like this

security:
    role_hierarchy:
        ROLE_ADMIN:       [ROLE_USER, ROLE_SONATA_ADMIN]

After your user will have this role, the menu must be displayed;

Answer 2

Check your twig file to see which block is still being used. The sonata blocks section only has sonata.admin.block.admin_list which should be loaded with the defaults.

You can get error feedback by enabling filters: [sorry this is my first resonse. How do you get the formatting to work?] sonata_block: default_contexts: [cms] exception: default: filter: debug_only renderer: throw filters: debug_only: sonata.block.exception.filter.debug_only ignore_block_exception: sonata.block.exception.filter.ignore_block_exception keep_all: sonata.block.exception.filter.keep_all keep_none: sonata.block.exception.filter.keep_none renderers: inline: sonata.block.exception.renderer.inline inline_debug: sonata.block.exception.renderer.inline_debug throw: sonata.block.exception.renderer.throw

Then add this line directly under the admin block: blocks: sonata.admin.block.admin_list: contexts: [admin] exception: { filter: keep_all, renderer: inline }
