I'm trying to create some content using razor. Everything seems to run fine and I'm not getting any exception but it is not creating any content. Any suggestions?

try
{
    // Create new content, the last param is the userId and is optional [default = 0]
var newContent = Model.ContentService.CreateContent("My new document", nodeId, "Task");

// Set property values
     newContent.SetValue("taskDuration", duration);
     newContent.SetValue("taskDate", date);
    newContent.SetValue("taskNotes", notes);

// Save (or save and publish)
Model.ContentService.SaveAndPublish(newContent);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
@Html.Raw(ex.Message);
}
