Having never worked with CMSMS before, I have upgraded a site from 1.6 to 1.11 after 4 years of no maintenance.
The upgrade seemed to go ok, but afterwards the site has no links generated to the css stylesheets.
The before page source looks like;
.....
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="qLip4m0DVNI2xqqGpkGm1uU4EqSflQgRYngREd2-ryc" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.xxx.co.uk/stylesheet.php?css ... ype=screen" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.xxx.co.uk/stylesheet.php?cssid=42" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="http://www.xxx.co.uk/stylesheet.php?css ... type=print" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.xxx.co.uk/stylesheet.php?cssid=43" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.xxx.co.uk/stylesheet.php?cssid=44" />
<link rel="start" title="Home Page, shortcut key=1" href="http://www.xxx.co.uk/" />
<link rel="prev" title="Search" href="http://www.xxx.co.uk/index.php?page=search" />
...
The pagesource after the upgrade is;
...
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="qLip4m0DVNI2xqqGpkGm1uU4EqSflQgRYngREd2-ryc" />
<link rel="start" title="Home Page, shortcut key=1" href="http://www.yyy.co.uk/dev/xxx/" />
<link rel="prev" title="Search" href="http://www.yyy.co.uk/dev/xxx/index.php?page=search" />
I have checked the associations which seem to be in place and look the same before and after.
Any ideas?

Pete
No Stylesheet links after upgrade

Re: No Stylesheet links after upgrade
{stylesheet} tag was deprecated in 1.9.x Series and you should change that to {cms_stylesheet}.
It could be possible that after that, paths to background images in your stylesheet will be wrong as with {cms_stylesheet} the css file is saved in /tmp/cache folder therefor you should probably change the path to a background in your stylesheet to background: url([[uploads_url]]/PATH/TO/FOLDER/your-image.gif); where [[uploads_url]] would return "http://www.your-domain.com/uploads" assuming you have your layout images somewhere in /uploads folder.

Re: No Stylesheet links after upgrade
Do you definitely have a stylesheet attached to your template?
Layout -> Templates. Click the Attach stylesheets logo by the template(s) you are using. Any stylesheets attached will be listed.
