Page Links

Questions

Every time I upgrade Umbraco (currently on 17.4.2), I lose all my page links:

Is there an easy way to get them back - some times I can publish all the pages again, but I have a lot of pages and it takes time and effort to go through them all and publish them. Other times it will say the page already exists so I cannot publish it

Hi Pete!
Perhaps this might be as easy as reloading the memory cache?
I believe I have experienced something similar on occasion.
My first step to clear up anything that might be funky is the memory cache.
Hope this screenshots helps point you in the right direction:

Hi @Pete0000

As @pc-pdx says, you can try rebuilding your memory cache, but you may have to rebuild your database cache too first.

Odd that this should happen though as an upgrade should not cause that to happen. Is that when you are doing a minor update (i.e. 17.x minor release?).

Do you have any errors in the logs or any packages that could be interfering with routing during an upgrade?

Hi @justin-nevitech,

Yep usually when I do minor upgrades this will happen. I have found most of the times reloading the caches will work, but on occasion, it won’t work and says the document already exists when I try to republish

Hi @Pete0000

You shouldn’t have to do that each time you update. If you can recreate this consistently and are able to share a copy of your database, it may be worth raising this as an issue in the issue tracker.

It may also be worth just ruling out any of third-party packages first though, so check if you can recreate this with only the CMS.
