Hi
After upgrading to Drupal 5.12, the forum page is empty, although I can see it when I go to admin/content/forum.
I have not experienced this with previous upgrades.
I re-enabled the forum/forum access, acl & advanced forum modules after upgrading.
Other types of content are there.
What could be wrong? :(
Thanks in advance

... I mean I can see the different containers and forums on that page, but not on the forum page itself.
From what version did you
From what version did you upgrade to 5.12?
Did you run update.php after enabling the modules? Did it complete successfully, without giving you a blank page or anything unusual? Does the admin/logs/status page report any problems?
Nobody can see the posts? Not even user #1?
In admin/content/node, can you see the posts of type 'forum'?
In admin/content/node-settings, is there a "Rebuild permissions" button? If so, try it.
If everything else fails, go to admin/content.taxonomy and hover over the Forums vocabulary to see its numeric ID. Then go to your database with phpmyadmin:
- Browse the 'variable' table to find a 'forum_nav_vocabulary' entry. Does it have the same ID as your Forums vocabulary?
- Browse the 'vocabulary_node_types' table. Does it contain an entry with type - 'forums' and the same vocabulary ID?
Problem to do with adv. forum
Thanks for responding.
After reading your suggestions, I checked out the logs & among the errors I found where these:
.... which made try to disable the advanced forum, which I also upgraded today.
As soon as I did that, the normal forum turned up.
There was no error when I run update.php.
So the problem seems to be with adv_forum, only that I dont quite know how to interpret those error messages. Something wrong with the css file ...?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again

After raising the issue with Michelle, she pointed me to where the problem could be here http://drupal.org/node/325723 . It involved moving a styles folder to the theme folder.
Many thanks
Had The Same Issue...
I had a similiar issue, where I (either as a user for admin) would post to the forum and the count remained at 0. Posts showed up as Forum Post in the recent history.
Thanks cog.rusty!
Your Solution about checking the 'vocabulary_node_types' MySQL table was the fix. Although when I used 'forums' did not work. I used 'forum' for the type and the forums seemed to work for me!
Thanks!
You are right, that was a
You are right, that was a typo, the name of the content type is 'forum'
