    I updated my EE 1.7.3 with MSM to EE 2.7.2
    I encountered a lot of problems, but finally I can access the control panel
    but not the site: I get the following error opening it in the browser:

    Error
    Unable to load requested field type file:  ft.cbox.php.
    
    Confirm the fieldtype file is located in the expressionengine/third_party/ directory
    
    «

    I cannot find the file ft.cbox.php anywhere in the system files, or after a text search in the database. I cannot imagine when or why this is loaded and where this is coming from.

    The EE 1.7.3 had some extensions: fieldframe, matrix, playa, checkbox (by marc huot). I updated matrix and playa, checkbox and field frame do not have EE2 compatible versions.

    I thought this thread could be related: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/161483/

    But I disabled all extensions on my old site before upgrading, and all custom field types were transformed to input-text. So there is no channel field using any field type that resembles this.

    I tried cheating by putting the standard ft.checkbox.php in the third party folder and renaming it to ft.cbox.php. But then I just get another cryptic field type message:

    Error
    Unable to load requested field type file:  ft.ftype_id_4.php.
    
    Confirm the fieldtype file is located in the expressionengine/third_party/ directory
    
    «

    and I have no idea what this could even be… 

    I do not know how to proceed further!

    Anybody got any idea please?
