To add onto this...here's the FireBug error I get when the right-hand pane is first loaded:

Type is not defined
Type.registerNamespace('umbraco.presen...s._succeeded=null;this._failed=null;}

No error when trying to select the media. 

I'm not 100% (having not done it myself), but isn't Type.registerNamespace part of the MS Ajax toolkit? which I'm pretty sure the latest Umbraco doesn't have a dependency on, so look to me like something may not have been updated correctly.

This is just my educated guess though, so could be wrong =)

Hey Matt, thanks for chiming in. The error is occurring in the DependencyHandler.axd line 205. I have the Ajax Toolkit in the bin still since contour needs that as far as I know. What about updating the data type manually? This issue would go away if I was able to change the data type associated with this property. I'm guessing I have to put on my SQL hat for that... :) 

Cheers!

Hey Nik,

Is this a Contour thing? As, isn't the advanced media picker, just a checkbox in the prevalues for the regular media picker?

Matt

It's not a Contour issue really, this happens in the content section when editing a page with the Media Picker w/ Preview data type. This package is not listed as compatible with 4.5.2 which I should surely have checked before upgrading (DOH!). So, in light of the issue I think the best approach is to revert back to the standard out-of-the-box media picker. Unless, of course, there's an update for the package floating around out there.

Ahhhhh, I see.

If the advanced media picker saves the value as the same datatype as the regular media picker, you might be able to use the SQL statement out of my doc type extensions package for switching over data types:

UPDATE	cmsPropertyData
SET	propertytypeid = {2}
WHERE	id in (
	SELECT	pd.id
	FROM	cmsPropertyData as pd
		inner join umbracoNode as n on n.id = pd.contentNodeId
		inner join cmsContent as c on c.nodeId = n.id
	WHERE	n.nodeObjectType = 'C66BA18E-EAF3-4CFF-8A22-41B16D66A972' and
		c.contentType = {0} and 
		pd.propertytypeid = {1}
)

Where {0} is your doc type id, {1} is the property id, and {2} is the target property type id

Don't forget to backup beforhand ;)

Matt

right-on Matt! I knew you'd have something up your sleeve :) I'll give that a try.

Wow, this one is gonna suck. Unfortunetly, I won't be able to do what you are suggeting Matt. The [SQL] data types are different between the two custom types (one text and one int). So, I have to switch the data type for the content type in question, then go through the DB and move the value from dataNtext to dataInt in the cmsPropertyData column for ALL of the nodes. I'll have to write a stored proc or somethign to do this as we're talking about hundreds of nodes. 

Oy!

Hey Nik.

Are you needing to convert from text to int, or int to text? I'm pretty sure it could all be 1 statement.

Matt

Hey Matt, from text to int. And I think you're right, one update should do it with the correct sub-selects....
