I have lost all templates also. My stylesheets and doc types are there, but no templates. I've taken care of some of the undocumented pitfalls, such as eliminating the 'Hashmarks' bit so I could log in etc. but I've not come across a fix for this. The site looks and works fine.
Thanks in advance for a reply and hopefully a fix.
I've actually solved the problem with help from another post. I had
lost my templates and was getting an error when trying to access the
docTypes. The error seemed to suggest that there was a corrupted node id
in the db. here is what I did to solve the problem.
I checked the cmsTemplate table in
the DB and saw that some of the "master" fields contained invalid
IDs. I guess some of my templates from the v3 version of the site were corrupt
and didn't get copied over but the DB still made records and tried to reference
them. I simply removed the records from the cmsTemplate table that referenced
non existing master page IDs and everything works now.
Templates lost after upgrading from v3.x to 4.0.2
