The strange thing is: When I run umbraco locally on my machine (Umbraco 7.1.6, Visual Studio 2013, ISSExpress 8.0, .NET 4.5) it is working fine. But when I run it on whe web server I get the above mentioned error (Umbraco 7.1.6, IIS 7.5.7600.16385, .NET 4.5)
The next thing I'd try would be to manually set the namespace for the XSLT extension class:
[XsltExtension("my.search")]
Then in your XSLT, change:
xmlns:ExtSearch="urn:my.search"
If that doesn't work, then Umbraco isn't picking up the extension class. From there, try selecting "skip error checks" and running the macro on the front-end, see if it gives you the same error.
I have tried so (with your example "my.search") but I get the same error (of course now with the message that the namespace 'urn:my.search' cannot be found).
I have now saved the file using the ignore error function but in the front end I get the following error: Error parsing XSLT file: \xslt\Search.xslt
There's a ticket on the issue tracker #U4-3425, about a similar issue, but it was fixed in v7.1.2. I'd suggest raising a new ticket on the issue tracker (with a reference to #U4-3425) and see if the core team can shed any light on the issue.
Using external libraries in XSLT - XslTransformException [v 7.1.6]
Hello,
I want to use an own library in a XSLT file. However, I always get the following error when I try to save the file.
My XSLT file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" xmlns:ExtSearch="urn:Ext.Library.SearchHelper" xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library" xmlns:Examine="urn:Examine" exclude-result-prefixes="msxml ExtSearch umbraco.library Examine "> <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> <xsl:param name="currentPage"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each select="ExtSearch:Search()/descendant::node"> Id: <xsl:value-of select="@id"/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>And the class definition looks like this:
using Examine; using Examine.SearchCriteria; using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text.RegularExpressions; using System.Web; using System.Xml.Linq; using System.Xml.XPath; using Umbraco.Core.Macros; namespace Ext.Library { [XsltExtension] public class SearchHelper { public XPathNodeIterator Search() { return GetResultsAsXml(ExamineManager.Instance.Search("", false)); } } }The strange thing is: When I run umbraco locally on my machine (Umbraco 7.1.6, Visual Studio 2013, ISSExpress 8.0, .NET 4.5) it is working fine. But when I run it on whe web server I get the above mentioned error (Umbraco 7.1.6, IIS 7.5.7600.16385, .NET 4.5)
Thank you for any help!

Hi mannyk,
I think the method needs to be a
static, try this:I'm not too sure why it's running ok on your local machine though?

Hello and thank you very much for your advice.
I have changed now the method to static but still I get the same error. Again, it works on local side.

Where is your code/class? In a compiled DLL or a file in /App_Code folder?
(I've heard about an issue with XSLT extension methods not working properly in /App_Code for v7)
Sorry for asking this next question... are you sure that the latest code is up on the web-server?
I know it sounds obvious, sorry.
Thanks,

Hello,
The class is in a compiled DLL in the /bin folder.
Yes, I have also checked, that the latest version has been copied on the server.

Hmmm... I think it might be a bug in Umbraco.
There's a ticket on the issue tracker #U4-3425, about a similar issue, but it was fixed in v7.1.2. I'd suggest raising a new ticket on the issue tracker (with a reference to #U4-3425) and see if the core team can shed any light on the issue.

Okay, thank you. I will reopen this issue.
