That is probably because the pages containing the ColorThemes and such are not visible to
the public.
Actually quite a lot of things in XWiki are just a page - this makes it easier to
customize, but for the
mixed part public/part private setup you need to make several non-obvious pages public.
This includes:
Dashboard.WebHome - to display the Dashboard on the stat page
Main.Welcome - if using the "include welcome page" widget in the dashboard
XWiki.DefaultSkin - for the general layout configuration (see XWiki Admin, section
"Presentation"
ColorThemes.DefaultColorTheme - or what ever color theme you are using - see e.g.
localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/ColorThemes/
If you make these pages visible to the Anonymous user, do not forget to make the visible
for the XWikiAllGroup, too,
as otherwise only the Anonymous user (and you as Admin) can see them, and normal
registered users are locked out ...
Btw, you should see an error message right now like "failed to execute the include
macro".
If you click in this you should get more info, including the stack trace and a longer
error message;
this is quite useful most of the time
hope this helps

To add to this - I just checked with firebug - a request for this one public page returns
a number of 401 errors - for the CSS among other things, I think!
If you want to hide most pages to the anonymous
user, you need to
"uncheck" the green "view" right checkbox for "Unregistered
Users" in
the wiki admin.
This can be overriden on the page level, exactly in the way you did it.
Thanks
Clemens, that was the case, and lead me one step further. Now an
unregistered user can see a page, but not the actual page content, only
the heading and footer...
