Hi all, I'm new to Umbraco and finally got my head around the learning curve when I loaded up a site I was working on (local machine running in Visual Studio) and most of the nodes had dissapeared from the content tree (about 15 out of 18 total)
When I run the site the pages were all still there (including the nodes that had dissapeared in the backend) until I tried the republish URL at which point they all vanished, leaving me with just the 3 pages that I can still see in the content tree. If I type the names of the pages in the search bar in the top left of the backoffice they appear, but If i click on them I get this : Request error:The URL returned a 404 (not found):
Are you by any chance using IIS express to run your site? (I'm guessing so because you're using Visual studio) And is the database you're running SQL CE?
If so that may be the problem. I have seen this happening before but using IIS instead of IIS express solves the issue.
Not really sure if it's a bug with IIS express and SQL CE or if it is in fact Umbraco related.
Thanks for the quick response Jan (unlike my own!)
Correct and correct. All I'm doing is starting a new empty web app in VS, install umbraco with nuget then just running straight away (And selecting SQL CE on set up)
Forgive my ignorance, but how would I go about moving this to IIS?
However I'm no Visual Studio wizard (Frontend guy in love with Sublime text) so I'm not sure where you can change it so that the site is launched using IIS instead of IIS express.
But if you're okay with it then you should be able to just setup a local development domain in your hosts file like
127.0.0.1mysite.dev.local
And then create a website in IIS and set the binding to mysite.dev.local and make sure the app pool is running ASP.NET 4 / Integrated mode
Nodes dissappearing v7.0.4

/umbraco/backoffice/UmbracoTrees/ContentTree/GetMenu
I thought this must have just been my inexperience to blame the first time it happened, but it has happened again on another site today yet I know that when I stopped working on it yesterday, everything was running fine.

Hi Andy
Better late than never ;-)
Ok, then I'm certain that's the issue.
However I'm no Visual Studio wizard (Frontend guy in love with Sublime text) so I'm not sure where you can change it so that the site is launched using IIS instead of IIS express.
