Front-End Menu Missing / Backend Pages Gone

[croise]

Hi everybody,

I run an older CMSMS site on 1.9.4.1. My client doesn't want me to do any upgrades so I'm stuck to this version for now.

Every once in a while the menu on the front-end disappears, and all the pages in the backend are gone. I fix this by clearing the cache and everything works perfect again, but I would like to know what could be causing this.

Another thing that might be part of the issue is that when I add a new page, it's not visible in content -> pages until I clear the cache.

Here's my system info in case it could be of help:

I am afraid you are on your own on this one...
The Dev-team has worked hard to make CMSMS better since the 1.9.4.1 release. You cannot expect anyone to go back more than two years to look into your problem, which may be fixed with an upgrade to latest release.

Policy is that only the last two versions are supported.
