When i attempt to view the templates tree in version 7.1.2 i am getting the following error:
Failed to retreive data for child nodes undefined
at umbraco.cms.businesslogic.template.ViewHelper.ViewPath(String alias)
at umbraco.cms.businesslogic.template.Template.setupNode()
at umbraco.cms.businesslogic.template.Template.GetAllAsList()
at umbraco.loadTemplates.RenderTemplates(XmlTree& tree)
I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to either fix this or track down the missings view / template / db entry
no changes to disk or back office, we only noticed a couple of days ago when attempting to edit a template.
we added a new document type and selected to create the template which is of course an MVC view, the view was created on the disk but when we tried to open it from the template tree and received the previously posted error. now we cannot edit the properties of a document type getting the following error
any help would be highly appreciated.

Ok, ehm do you remember if the document type or template aliases was the same on multiple document types or templates? (Ok, weird sentence, hope it makes sense though).
What is your setup like? Do you have a local and stading server or do you only have one server?
the template aliases were unique so were the document type names, with the null reference i am guessing there is an entry in the db for a non existent template but i cant seem to find a decent log entry or trace to state which this might be, or it could be something totally different! not really looking forward to building a new install up from scratch!
server setup is a single 2012 server, running v 7.1.2
You should be able to find an overview of the templates if you have a look in the database...can't remember the name of the table though but think it's named something with "templates".
hi jan, i did compare the cmsTemplate table entries to the physical disk views and all entries in the table are on the disk, so bit of a non starter. any idea how i can get more info on the null reference error and possible the template name causing the error, i have used umbraco for a while but not too sure how to use the debug mode

Hi Warren and welcome to our :)
When did this start to happen? Have you made any change in the backoffice or on the disk?

sorry to bump this up, but just wondering if anyone might have some insight into this problem, rebuilding the site is going to be a real pain!
Hi Warren,
We have the same problem. Did you solve it ?
is working on a reply...
