Modules Page - 404 Error

[Chris Falkenstein]

hello, 

after i attemped to install a module -- the modules manager -- i can no longer access the 'modules' section in the admin.

here's exactly how i got to this point

1. i installed a fresh copy of pw (v 2.5.3) with the blank slate option.  install was completed without issue. wonderful. 
2. directly after install i headed over to modules.processwire.com and downloaded the zip file for soma's module manager. 
3. next i navigated back to the admin and over to the modules section. i chose to upload the modules manager zip file.  i selected the zip file from my desktop then hit upload, waited a bit then i got redirected to the 404 error page. and now i can not get to any page within the moduels section of the amdin.  i get redirected to the 404 error page. 

i'm not sure where to start troubleshooting.  i restalled pw and attempted to install the module 2 more times as outlined above.  i get the same results.   

any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I discovered what the issue was.  the modules manager module requires the JqueryDataTables module to be installed first.  easy enough.
