    Very odd behavior to report.  I have a smallish (35 MB) DB, and the online upgrade seemed to run ok.  It took its sweet time refreshing on a fairly unhelpful 2.0.0 message, but after 5 mins or so it completed the process, and I could view the site.  The weird thing is that a number of the DB records are truncated.  It seems trawling through it that about half of the records are incomplete.  The odd thing is that this behavior is spread evenly between templates and entries.  I can go through it editing each of the truncated items (template or entry) and can copy the old content and it works fine.  But with more than 1200 pages this isn’t really practical.

    Has anyone seen anything like this before?  Any suggestions as to what to do about it?

    Thanks.

    Contact Ellis Lab support since probably something went wrong in the upgrade. Best suggestion is to roll back the database and install from a backup.
