 Advanced Permalinks plugin (known to cause issues with WP 3.1) was in use
 when it was upgraded, so it might have to do something with that. Its
 disabled at the moment.

 After disabling it did you flush rewrite rules?

 Yes I resaved my permalinks. I think they get flushed on visiting the
 permalinks setting page only or I need to do that explicitly?
