As a newbie, I just installed the M.Community Full Release with Sample Data 2.0.5 on Win8 64bit with Xampp -- all went well so far, except arriving in the backend panel the "Admin Icons" are replaced by not resolvable symbols because the font is missing, in the setup.css, a font "Admin Icons" is referenced, which doesn't exist in any folder.

But basically, I can't find any font in any folder that actually displays icons (a Windows prob?).

It seems that some css and fonts files are not generated properly. You need to do the folowing

1. Remove pub/static
   


2. Remove var/cache
   


3. Remove var/composer_home
   


4. Remove var/generation
   


5. Remove var/page_cache
   


6. Remove var/view_preprocessed
   


7. run php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
   

Open up app/etc/di.xml find the path

MagentoFrameworkAppViewAssetMaterializationStrategySymlink

and replace it with

MagentoFrameworkAppViewAssetMaterializationStrategyCopy

Note: Remove entire files and folder under pub/static except .htaccess

Open up app/etc/di.xml find the path

MagentoFrameworkAppViewAssetMaterializationStrategySymlink

and replace it with

MagentoFrameworkAppViewAssetMaterializationStrategyCopy

Then go to varcache this folder remove all file

To show backend and frontend css, font and icon , I used this solosion:

Remove pub/static //not .htaccess

Remove var/cache

Remove var/composer_home

Remove var/generation

Remove var/page_cache

Remove var/view_preprocessed

Then open up app/etc/di.xml find the path

MagentoFrameworkAppViewAssetMaterializationStrategySymlink

 and replace it with MagentoFrameworkAppViewAssetMaterializationStrategyCopy

And finally run this:

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy 

I encounted this issue when using a CDN network, I added the following to allow cross origin sharing within the html/.htaccess file

<FilesMatch ".(ttf|ttc|otf|eot|woff|woff2|font.css|css|json)$">



Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"

Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET"

Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "X-Accept-Charset,X-    Accept,Content-Type"



</FilesMatch>

It seemed to be an issue with the default Magento htaccess fle not allowing certain font types which caused the issue. I tried the solutions above with no success but this worked for me.

Perhaps this will help. I flushed the cache and re-indexed after adding

Open app/etc/di.xml

MagentoFrameworkAppViewAssetMaterializationStrategySymlink

and replace it with

MagentoFrameworkAppViewAssetMaterializationStrategyCopy

then Remove entire files and folder under pub/static except .htaccess

and it will show up
