    Ambiguous call error when fetching an image url in the server

    Using Umbraco 7

    Hi, This small piece of code works fine on my own machine in debug mode but crashes on the server:

    var defaultIconId = CurrentPage.GetPropertyValue("defaultIcon"); var defaultIconObject = Umbraco.Media(defaultIconId);

    The second line gives the following error:

    The call is ambiguous between the following methods or properties: 'Umbraco.Web.UmbracoHelper.Media(System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable

    Any clues? I may try setting the fetched "defaultIconId" to string but would like to know what is the approved way.

    Changing the top line to

    var defaultIconId = CurrentPage.GetPropertyValue

    did not help either. Still works fine on the local machine

    Try

    var defaultIconId = CurrentPage.GetPropertyValue<string>("defaultIcon");

    Sorry, I did try that. It didn't work. Then I tried ToString(). I think that did work but I have another issue with the database not refreshing and being unable to access the back office, so there was a null value.

    So I think I'll close the thread for now.

    Thanks
