Bug #21179
closed
The Reference Index table is empty which is likely to be the case because you just upgraded your TYPO3 source.

Description
Jsut upgraded from typo3 3.8 to 4.1.11, i did the update static info and write to database, when i log into the backend i receive this error
"The Reference Index table is empty which is likely to be the case because you just upgraded your TYPO3 source. Please go to Tools>DB Check and update the reference index."
The problem is the backend is empty and i can't go to tools > DB because link isnt working.
How can i fix it
I add the screenshot who describes my problem
(issue imported from #M12107)
Files
I guess the version of the skin you use is not compatible with the new version of TYPO3.
Edit the file typo3conf/localconf.php and delete the skin from the list of loaded extensions.
Then delete the temp_cached-files and try again.
I just removed from my localconf.php the skin_grey2 , but i stil see the backend empty, i can't access to Tools> db to change the referer index
Then the skin was not the reason for this error.
Go to the install-tool and delete all files in typo3temp/ and subfolders.
Also try clearing your browser-cache.
Btw.: Did you do a "compare" and "update" with the database?
If that does not solve the problem: If you click the link: What exactly do you get then?
Why do you not update to the most current version, 4.2.9?
Ok, i solved finally my problem
The tm_contentaccess extension, was making that my BE wasn't visible into the updated 4.* version.
I removed it, and now i can see the modules, the problem is now i see the Backend like 20 years ago :)
But i supose i can find another extension like tm_contentaccess, to improve the backend skin etc
Thankyou for your replys christopher
Install the extension t3skin.
I remember, that skin_grey2 is even working in 4.2...
So if you like your old design more, install versions of tm_contentaccess (and of the other extensions you need for this skin) which work with 4.1.
