    Change to Web.config causes error in Umbraco 7.15.3

    Hi all, I am testing upgrading from Umbraco 7.6.2 to 7.15.3. The upgrade went well, and all the pages seem to load fine until I make any changes in the web.config file. If I do that any Umbraco page (excluding the back office) throws the error:

    "The template with Id [id number here] does not exist, the page cannot render"

    To fix it I have to go into the back office and republish the entire site. After that the pages work fine.

    Has anybody else on 7.15.3 experienced this and is there a work around so I don't need to republish the entire site any time a change is made to the web.config file?

    I am going to setup a fresh 7.15.3 site and see if it does the same thing.

    After installing a fresh Umbraco 7.15.3 and making a change to the web.config file I didn't get the same error. So maybe this is a problem with going directly to 7.15.3 from 7.6.2.

    I have checked this going from 7.6.2 to 7.7.3, but I am still getting the same error.

    I just made a copy of my 7.6.2 site and made a change to the web.config (inserted a blank line) and got the same error: enter image description here

    The upgrade is not causing this issue. The id of the template mentioned in the error message doesn't exist at all and I can't figure out what is calling for it. I have looked in the database for this Id but can't find a reference to it anywhere in these tables:

    • cmsContentXml
    • cmsDocument
    • cmsTemplate

    If anyone has any thoughts on where else I can look for a reference to template id's I would appreciate it.

    I found a solution. I still don't know why it thinks it needs a different template then the one that is attached to the page, but this works:

    • Right click "Content" from the Content Section
    • Select "Republish Entire Site"
    • Click the green button for "Republish Entire Site"

    The way I was previously doing this was to select the top most document and use the right click menu to publish it and all sub pages. I didn't even realize there was a Republish Entire Site option.

    Maybe this will help someone else.
