Content Export Issue

[duncanl-living]

Hi, I'm having trouble exporting some of my content and the content that failed to export comes up highlighted orange on the "Export Processed" list.

Also in my trace log I've been seeing this:

[P16972/D3/T154] WARN Jumoo.uSync.Content.ContentHandler - Error saving Content: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at Jumoo.uSync.Core.Mappers.GridMapper.ProcessGridValues(String content, Boolean import)
at Jumoo.uSync.Core.Serializers.ContentBaseSerializer1.GetExportIds(PropertyType propType, XElement value) at Jumoo.uSync.Core.Serializers.ContentBaseSerializer1.SerializeBase(IContentBase item, String contentTypeAlias)
at Jumoo.uSync.Core.Serializers.ContentSerializer.SerializeCore(IContent item)
at Jumoo.uSync.Content.ContentHandler.ExportItem(IContent item, String path, String rootFolder)

Please can you help identify what the issue may be?

Thanks.

Hi, the content mapper is looking for IDs and it goes through the properties trying to find them.

looking at the code it's failing while looking in the grid.

what type of controls are you using inside the grid ? -
and do you know what content node is failing?

if you can - go into the umbraco.config file in app_data, and find the grid values for the failing node - this will help me see what the value is before the content mapper trys to look into it.

This is the failed node.

thanks, i can prob work through that - but it will take a little time.

if you turn debugging on in the log4net config

you will get a lot more logging and it might help us pinpoint which of those values is failing.

Hi Kevin, turned on debug and more or less the same error logged nothing more in particular.

In the upcoming release the macro parameters will be mapped. (when in a grid like above.)
