Install issues, but otherwise what a great package.

Conveyor

Hey Ali

Really nice package once I got it to work. There were a few problems during the installation. Firstly Umbraco 7.2.2 installs with MVC 4.0.0.0 by default. Your package relies on 4.0.0.1. So initially the installer crashed once it figured out it didn't have the correct dependencies.

After I got it to install the redirection at the end of the install looks like the old v6 redirection so you get a 404. Not a big deal it still all works.

Then when I did try browse to the section I got the same error as mentioned earlier in the forum. Once I grabbed the updated DLL it was all good.

Just used the package to transfer content from our dev to staging and it worked really nice. Could I ask if it finds a node in the same position with the same name I assume it just updates the content?

Otherwise what an awesome package :)

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your feedback. sorry for getting back to you with a delay as I am still on holiday :)

I know there are some issues with version 7.2.2 as it is missing some dlls and also there are some breaking changes. I have had the same problem and similar issues with other packages with 7.2.2. You can find more information here

The package doesn't care about the name, it only works bases on the GUID of the page, so if you manually create a page on 2 environments their GUID is different, however if you only created it once and the import export will work fine.

You can have a look at my session in uHangout as it will give you some idea of how it works.

Please do not hesitate to post your questions here

Thanks

Ali

With Conveyor 2.1 I am also getting the MVC 4.0.0.1 dependency error when installing the package. The Umbraco version is 7.1.5.

Can I upgrade the MVC version? (Where would I get that from?) or can this be fixed with binding redirects in the web.config?

I did change the binding redirect and was able to install the package successfully. Do you know if there could be any negative side effects from the binding redirect change?
```
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Mvc" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
       <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-4.0.0.1" newVersion="4.0.0.0" />
</dependentAssembly>
```
The error is:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Could not load types from assembly AST.ContentConveyor7, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null, errors:

Exception: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=4.0.0.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies.

Hi Dallas,

It is so odd , some people get this error and some don't I think it might be related to the version of MVC that is installed but I am not sure.

I try to share it to see if anyone else has any idea.

Thanks

Ali

hi @Mauricio

Conveyor is added as a section so after installing the package you need to go into the Users section, select your user and grant access to the Conveyor section.

thank you Dallas! :)

I need to export media content, do you know if this is possible? I only can see in the export section content.

When you export the content it will include any referenced media. This includes media pickers and any media added to the RTE.

Do you only need to export the media section? Do you need to keep any references to content?

You could use the existing Content Conveyor media code and the Umbraco Media api's to create a customized tool to export all the media. Considering the time involved, a Courier license might be a better option (note that there can be issues with Courier too)
