    Dublicate nodes in media-archive when using custom datatype/usercontrol

    Hi there!

    I'm having a weird problem:

    On an Umbraco 6.2.4 using WebForms as the default rendering engine, i have a custom usercontrol.

    I have created a new custom datatype which uses the "Umbraco Usercontrol Wrapper" and my custom usercontrol. The usercontrol inherits umbraco.editorControls.userControlGrapper.IUsercontrolDataEditor and implements the IUsercontrolDataEditor interface.

    In the "Settings" section of Umbraco i have created a new property on the "Folder"-mediatype under the "Mediatypes" which uses my custom datatype.

    If i then go to the media-section and click on one of the media-folders and navigate around between the Umbraco sections - dublicate nodes of some of the media-folders show up. And if i toggle between the "developer" and "media" sections in Umbraco - the names of the media-folders are concatted each time making the folder nodenames longer and longer.

    I have tried with an "empty" usercontrol without any logic - and the problem still occur.

    I have tried an application-recycle and restart of the website in the IIS without any luck.

    Does anybody know what is going on - or have any idea what could be causing this odd behaviour?

    Thanks in advance!

    IIRC we are experiencing a similar issue on a 6.2.4 project as well. So for now, I'm just here to listen :)

    Hello,

    I've had this before with a custom tree: https://twitter.com/j_breuer/statuses/392277579513597953

    Are there somehow nodes in the tree that have the same id?

    Hi Jeroen

    Not sure what id's you are talking about :) ?

    The nodes which are shown multiple times have the same node id's - but they should (of course) only be shown once each.

    Look at the picture below for an example:

    enter image description here

    The custom usercontrol in the example below lies on the image-mediatype. And as posted above - the problem also occurs if it is just a plain clean usercontrol. If i remove the usercontrol - the problem is gone.

    A couple of times i have somehow managed to get rid of the dublicate nodes. But an application-restart, site restart, web.config touch and so on doesn't seem to do the trick.

    When the duplicate nodes disappear - i am not able to provoke the problem again... well, that is until it suddenly appears by itself again :|

    I'm talking about the id of the node. You can find it on the properties tab. If something like this happens you might have a "ghost" node somewhere. When you sort the media do you see a duplicate node?

    These topics might help:

    If i sort the nodes - the problem is gone.

    The funny thing is - when i right click and choose "sort" i see no duplicate nodes as in your examples from the links.

    The problem occurs almost everywhere in the media archive and disappears when i remove the usercontrol - it doesn't make sense to me that this problem is due to ghost nodes in the db if i can remove the problem "just" by deleting the usercontrol?

    How should i be able to find the dublicate nodes in the db?

    I have tried seachring for the name of the node in umbracoNode table - but only one node turns up.

    Still experiencing this odd behavior!

    A quick summary of the problem:

    A clean usercontrol on the image-mediatype results in ghost-nodes in the media archive.

    No nodes in the tree with same id. No ghost-nodes can be found in the database. If i right click and choose "sort" - no dublicate nodes exist. If i sort the nodes - the problem is gone - at least for a while.

    Nobody with a good idea or fix ?

    Thanks!
