There is no frontpage.html.tmpl in Bugzilla. Is that a local customization?

What version were you doing a CVS upgrade from?

In the past (2.18 rc3) I have ported the templates form Redhat Bugizlla. They 
are in a seperate template directory. Upgrade from 2.18 tot 2.19.2 did not 
have any problems with that. Could it be that there is some check (recursive) 
in all the template directories ? Copying the template to the EN template 
directory solved this but then is chokes on the next template.

I think Gerv touched this code most recently.

Also, you put "Windows XP" in the OS field -- is your Bugzilla actually running
on Windows, or is it on some other OS?

I'm running on Windows XP Professional with IIS as webserver.

You need to give the exact error message and text, including the output leading
up to it. Also, what is the result of a recursive "grep" through your entire
Bugzilla directory for "frontpage.html.tmpl"? And a "find"?

Peter - It would be great if we could get some more information from you for
this. If you could give the exact error message and text, including the output
leading
up to it, it would be great. Also, what is the result of a recursive "grep"
through your entire Bugzilla directory for "frontpage.html.tmpl"? And a "find"?

Recently upgraded to 2.20rc1. 

Noticed that checksetup.pl has a problem if there are custom templates or 
there are templates in a language directory that are not in the en/default.

Dropping the nl language directory solved the problem. (synchronizing the two 
would probably helped as well) 

This bug has the same background. frontpage.html.tmpl is a custom extension.

You can close the bug. It works for me, but I suggest that some has a look at 
checksetup.pl to verify this behaviour.
