Home page is now returning 404 and I don't know why.
I've recently started working on a test site to learn Umbraco 7. I deleted the template my home page was using because I realized I had set up the Master - Child hierarchy wrong. After I switched the template being used by my doctype, I started getting this error:
ERROR Umbraco.Core.UmbracoApplicationBase - An unhandled exception occurred
System.InvalidOperationException: The template with Id 1102 does not exist, the page cannot render
So I unpublished the page, changed the template again and republished it. Now I'm getting a 404 error on the home page. When I check the log file I'm finding this:
WARN Umbraco.Web.UmbracoModule - Status code is 404 yet TrySkipIisCustomErrors is false - IIS will take over.
I'm stuck at this point and don't know how to correct the problem. Does anyone have any ideas that could help?
Ensure you have the new template selected in the "Properties" tab of the homepage content node. Publish that node to be doubly sure.
When you click on the template in the settings section of Umbraco, be sure the CSHTML file displays.
Once you click on the template, note that the template ID will appear in the URL (about the last 4 characters). You might be able to use this as a sanity check (e.g., the umbraco.config mentions the template ID used for each node).
Set trySkipIISCustomErrors to true in the umbracoSettings.config file (in the config folder).
Thanks Nicholas! I didn't have the template set on the properties tab in my page for the homepage of the content node. Can't believe I missed that. Really appreciate your help, cheers!

Some basic things you can try:
umbraco.configmentions the template ID used for each node).trySkipIISCustomErrorsto true in theumbracoSettings.configfile (in theconfigfolder).Thanks Nicholas!
