Hello All,
I've searched high and low, and tried many things myself, to try to get my install to work but am stymied and hoping you can help. I suspect it's one simple fix, but I can't seem to locate it myself.
I'm upgrading from 7.02.00 to 7.03.04 (latest) and my upgraded site completely loses all structure and functionality, i.e. all CSS formatting is gone and the site content (including admin and host structure sub menus) is unusable with non-functioning links. So, I can't even do things like changing the skin or working on the CSS editor.
I've tried the following:
1) I backup web.config so that I can update the connection strings and machinekey to be able to access the site database when upgrading (found this out after first failed attempt when host password didn't work).
2) I backup and copy over the portal _default CSS and Portal 2 (host) CSS documents.
3) I also make sure to update the skin (I am using CleanWeb skin 3.5.1).
The upgrade appears to go on without incident according to the logs, and the site launches but the formatting is completely haywire. I've tried clearing caches, restarting the site in IIS, recycling the application pool, etc.
I'm running this on a virtualized server, so I can try anything and revert back to previous states, so I am open to suggestions without fear of doing damage. Any help you can offer would be appreciated. Thanks.
