Site was working well on 6.6. Upgraded to drupal 6.8 last night. Things looked OK after the upgrade. Started getting complaints form users this morning that the screen "looked funny". There is NO CSS styling whatsoever. Typing in the URL of the style sheets brings up a drupal "page not found" page! Please help! Site is http://www.starastronomy.org

Seems to be "fixed". I had to disable caching (was set to "normal") and clear cached pages. Not sure how/why that fixed things - I would think style sheets would be served by web server and the request never seen by drupal.

Hi,

I just want to know how did you upgrade from 6.6 to 6.8. Did you overwrite the 6.6 from 6.8?

Sorry so long in responding - was busy over the holidays. What I did put the site into maintenance mode, load drupal 6.8 into a directory "next to" the 6.6 one. I then copied over themes, modules, file, .htaccess, and site config from 6.6 to 6.8. I then renamed the 6.6 directory from "X" to "X-6.6", renamed the 6.8 directory to "X". I then ran update.php, made sure things were working (which they weren't at first), and when they were took teh site out of maintenance mode.

Thanks for the post. I already had caching disabled, but still had the same problem after upgrading from 6.1 to 6.6, using the Green'n'Black theme.

Clearing the cache solved the problem:

Administer --> Performance --> Clear cached data (button at the bottom of the page)
