    Templates have disappeared

    Suddenly none of my templates appear under the Templates node. The site works ok but when I try to create a new template in the backend I get a 404 error after clicking create and no nodes appears under the templates node (I had ten templates). Any ideas? I've seen similar reports linked to database corruption - so I'll look into rolliing back the DB, but does this happen often with Umbraco / MSSQL?

    Hi Jed

    I have never experienced the above scenario and I don't think this is something that happens often.

    But what version of Umbraco are you using?

    And are you sure permissions are set properly? This could very well be the cause when the Umbraco backoffice is acting up.

    Yes, you're right it's probably due to a permissions issue. I was trying to set permissions on our Intranet server so I could display/use a (windows) logged in username on our Intranet site when all our templates disappeared. I've spend days trying to get this simple thing to work with absolutely no success. So what do I do now? Pick around the database trying to guess where the damage is? Any ideas?

    Oh, and I'm using umbraco v 4.6.1 (Assembly version: 1.0.4029.25836)

    FIXED: My fault - it was down to a permissions issue, either due to ASP.NET Impersonation being enabled, or an allow-logged-in-users authorisation rule. No idea why these should cause templates (only) to be unreadable by Umbraco, but anyway it works.

    Hi Jed

    What are the server specs? the ASP.NET user needs to have the proper permissions so I guess this may have been the issue.
