We have a problem that occurs occasionally. We get NullreferenceException when we try to get a TypedContent from a UmbracoHelper. I cannot figure out why this is occuring but restarting or deleting index files fixes the problem.
The error is:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

The class where the Exception occurs is a static HtmlHelper extension class:
private static UmbracoHelper Umbraco

get
{
return new UmbracoHelper(UmbracoContext.Current);
}
}
public static IEnumerable<ImageCarouselItemViewModel> GetImageCarouselItems(this StartPageViewModel source)
{
if (source == null)
return Enumerable.Empty<ImageCarouselItemViewModel>();
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(source.LinkToImageCarousel))
return Enumerable.Empty<ImageCarouselItemViewModel>();
var list = new List<ImageCarouselItemViewModel>();
if (source.LinkToImageCarousel == null)
return Enumerable.Empty<ImageCarouselItemViewModel>();
var page = Umbraco.TypedContent(source.LinkToImageCarousel);
if (page == null)
return Enumerable.Empty<ImageCarouselItemViewModel>();
foreach (var node in page.Descendants())
{
var imageCarouselItem = Umbraco.TypedContent(node.Id).As<ImageCarouselItemViewModel>();
list.Add(imageCarouselItem);
}
return list;
}
I've only had issues like this where I have a local and staging environment sharing the same DB connection. So there would be instances where the DB would be up-to-date but my local XML cache would be out of date.
Try republishing the site, as I think I'm correct in thinking TypedContent returns IPublishedContent
Try manually physically deleting your indexes and rebuild them again in the Developer tab in Umbraco, path is at: /App_Data/TEMP/ExamineIndexes/ * - just delete everything in there, everything is rebuilt!
You may get some sort of permission error to not be able to delete it, I think the last I shut down the IIS and had to do a "del ExamineIndexes" or similar via the command prompt.
TypedContent giving Nullreference
Hi!
We have a problem that occurs occasionally. We get NullreferenceException when we try to get a TypedContent from a UmbracoHelper. I cannot figure out why this is occuring but restarting or deleting index files fixes the problem.

Does anyone know why this problem is occuring?
Can't see why it would randomly return a null.
Is this a development environment or live?
I've only had issues like this where I have a local and staging environment sharing the same DB connection. So there would be instances where the DB would be up-to-date but my local XML cache would be out of date.

Sorry for a late response.
The error does not appear anymore and I wrote a helper class for getting a new instance.
We had a shared db connection before and that is changed now in production.
But now we get a lock on the index instead like "Cannot index queue items, the index is currently locked,, IndexSet: InternalIndexSet"
Any idea of this error?
Try manually physically deleting your indexes and rebuild them again in the Developer tab in Umbraco, path is at: /App_Data/TEMP/ExamineIndexes/ * - just delete everything in there, everything is rebuilt!

is working on a reply...
