After upgrading several Drupal sites from Drupal 5.x to Drupal 6.x, some of the menus have been lost almost on all of the sites.
I went looking in to MySQL database in the table menu_links and there I could see all the lost menu items written in the table, but the Drupal site wasn't showing them. I've tried to find out where there is a diference between workin and non-working menu items in menu_links table.
Here I'm posting two same menu items.
The first one is new, that I've manually created after upgrading --> it is working.
The second one in old, that has been upgraded from the older version of the site --> it isn't working.
FIRST ONE, NEW, MANUALLY CREATED --> IT IS WORKING
menu_name: menu-glavni-menu
mlid: 243
link_path:
link_title: Koristne povezave
options: a:1:{s:10:"attributes";a:1:{s:5:"title";s:0:"";}}
a:1:{s:10:"attributes";a:1:{s:5:"title";s:0:"";}}:
module: menu
hidden: 0
external: 1
has_children: 1
expanded: 0

SECOND ONE, OLD, UPGRADED --> IT ISN'T WORKING
menu_name: menu-glavni-menu
mlid: 77
link_path: #
link_title: Koristne povezave
options: a:0:{}
module: menu
hidden: 0
external: 0
has_children: 1
expanded: 0
weight: 0

I guess that the difference is in "options:" parrameter, but I have no ideal how it is created.
