    I have just upgraded my PostNuke site to .760. I believe the upgrade is successful and I have changed the prefix in config.php to correspond with my database. My data shows. However, the links to the core modules are not showing and neither is the log in. You can log in by going to user.php. I know there is a file somewhere that I need to edit, I just don't know which one. Or is it possible that my theme needs to be edited for the new version?

    The problem is at

    Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

    Sounds like the blocks module isn't correctly initialised/upgraded and activated.

    Any ideas how I can activate this? I can log in, however I don't have access to the admin menu. Do I need to perform the upgrade again?

    No access to admin probably means the new admin module was not created in the database. This has happened to us a couple of times now.

    Compare the supplied phoenix.sql that comes with the PostNuke download with your curent DB to see if anything is missing - in particular look for admin module tables - Table structure for table `pn_admin_category` and Table structure for table `pn_admin_module`

    OK. It is definitely related to tables. I have one set of tables with the prefix 'nuke' and one with the prefix 'at'. I inherited the database from someone else. I don't know why he did this. Now, if I go into config.php and change the prefix to 'at', my data appears on the site. However, none of the core modules appear to the left. If I change the prefix back to 'nuke' I have all of the modules, but none of my original data. The site did work at one point, when I was using version .750. Any idea how I can have both the modules and my data at the same time?

    Should I be looking for something in config-old.php?

    Figure out which prefix you have the least amount of tables for and change them all to the other prefix... it's painful but it should work.
