I've heard of this happening with a few different people on a few different sites, another designer too, tonight i've seen it myself. If you have set in design | design options to have "quantity on product page" and have Shopping Mode on sections set to "Use Parent Settings", there appears to be a failing in the cascade of this setting. I can prove this by unticking "use parent settings" ensuring "quantity on product page" is selected and applying and then switching "use parent setttings" back on. This then brings up the quanity box on the product layout.
This reminds me of the [LINK] problem where it needed a global refresh after an upgrade. The problem with this is that it doesn't stand out as a problem on the page, only when people go to buy do they find themselves in a continuous loop saying quantity needs to be between 1 and 32767, but there is no quantity box to add a quantity.
If you switch off use parent, apply and then switch back, it works, so there has to be a cascade problem of some sort (i think). I've also confirmed that if you remove the condition <actinic:variable name="IsQuantityPromptShown" /> from around the quantity box, again it shows straight away.
Has anyone else come across this, i can't see what is the exact condition that this shows itself yet, but it's strange that switching a setting is correcting it.
