    Cannot save content with an empty name

    I have a simple method in surface controller after form submit, which has a file upload and name and email, but after saveandpulish, i get this error that "Cannot save content with an empty name"

    content.SetValue("entry", model.FileUpload);

        contentService.SaveAndPublish(content);

    Any help regarding what am i missing? this worked fine in umbraco 7 for me

    You must provide a name for the content object you're trying to save. In Umbraco 8 you have multiple ways to do that:

    contentService.Create("Name here", -1, "contentTypeAlias");

    When you have multiple cultures configured, you can use:

    content.SetCultureName("Name here", "en-US");

    Thanks Corné for response, my current code looks like this:

    IContentService contentService = Services.ContentService;
var content = contentService.CreateContent("samplename", udi, sample.ModelTypeAlias);
content.SetValue("entry", model.FileUpload);

 contentService.SaveAndPublish(content);

    If you can please correct me in what i am missing here

    I assume you've multiple languages configured?

    Then I think you should use the SetCultureName() extension on the IContent object for at least the required languages.

    Hi Rabea,

    The methods in V8's IContentService allow you to specify a culture. :) Try the following:

    IContentService contentService = Services.ContentService;
var content = contentService.CreateContent("samplename", udi, sample.ModelTypeAlias);
content.SetValue("field", "value", "en-US");

contentService.SaveAndPublish(content, "en-US");

    This was helpful. Where can one find documentation for V8 Services.ContentService? (I have been looking, but possibly not carefully enough. Everything I turn up is pre-8)
