I upgraded my 4.01 installation to 4.2 but now I get no templates when I use the Movable Type interface to try to edit templates for my blog. When I check the mySQL database with phpMyAdmin the templates are there. There is also a fair amount of cruft that has been added over the years by various plug-ins, such as old versions of CustomFields.

Anyone have any idea of how I can get MT to recognize the templates that are in the database?

Thanks, Tim

Someone else has reported this issue as well. I am glad to know the templates are there, that is a relief. Do you have a backup of your DB before you upgraded?

Were you a Commercial Customer?

I'm having exactly the same problem. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Same problem here. I do NOT want to delete and start over. Too many entries, too many comments, and too many users. In my case, it is only affecting one blog out of five. The others are working fine.
