I'm running drupal 5.7 with the following optional modules enabled:
calendar-5.x-1.7 cck-5.x-1.6-1. date-5.x-1.8 forms-5.x-1.x-dev nodeaccess-5.x-1.x-dev private_upload-5.x-1.0-beta6 quotes-5.x-1.1 sitecss-5.x-0.2 survey-5.x-1.x-dev views-5.x-1.6 weather-5.x-6.0
I did a backup of my site database and restored it to another site (to test the backup/restore process). When I went to my frontpage, I got "Page not found". To make a long story short, it looks like the views module didn't get re-enabled.
I could get to the /admin page and under the Site Building heading, it didn't show views. When I went to /admin/build/modules and ran update.php, everything started to work again. Does this make sense? Should it be necessary to run update.php after a database restore?
