i installed the package and instantly had an error both back- and front-end.
i am using shared hosting and i am not sure what version of iis they have and i think they are only .net3.5.
the error said something like: ' unable to load outfield.xxx.ie9 extensions' and said something about being created in a later version of something.
sorry - i should have paid more attention
is this because of the framework?
anyway, for anyone else who has this issue, deleting the 'ico' images from the unmbraco/images folder, and deleting the dll from the bin folder did the trick. once logged in, the package remants can be uninstalled.
i have removed the pinned item, cleared cache, created new user, logged in - still no tasks.
apart from the dll and the images are there any other files that are uploaded or updated? - i can check through make sure it's not a permissions thing my end.
I'll double check my code and see if I've missed something.
You can double check the umbraco.aspx html source (view source) to see if any meta tags with the name msapplication-task are added. You should have 1 per area you have permissions for.
I've uploaded another version, however I couldn't find anything wrong. I've added some additional error checking just incase, but if you still get the null object reference, I'm really not sure where it's coming from.
RE The missing tasks, again, I've tested this, and I can't seem to replicate it. I'd say just update, and see if that changes anything.
When generating the list of tasks, it first calls User.GetCurrent(), checks for null, and then loops through all the applications (sections) you have permissions for.
For you to get no tasks, you must be satisfying one of the following:
1) User.GetCurrent() is returning null 2) The user returned from User.GetCurrent() has no access to any settings
The only other thing I can think of, is a wrong version of Umbraco, which needs to be 4.5.x (either .NET 3.5 or 4.0 should work) and be running on IIS7

is there any way this can be made compatible?
Sounds like it is a problem with the version as this is compiled with .NET 4.
I'll look at compiling to 3.5 as it's not doing anything special.
Will get back to you.

Hi,
I've just released a version compiled againt .NET 3.5, so you should be able to try this again.
Matt
Thanks matt
installs fine ow, no errors.
BUT, i am not getting any tasks in the pinned shortcut.
IE: v9.0.7930
umbraco:v4.5.2
iis: 7
Hey,
Try unpinning it, and make sure you are logged in and try re-pinning it again. It should show the areas your user has permissions for.
Matt
no, still no love here.
i have removed the pinned item, cleared cache, created new user, logged in - still no tasks.
apart from the dll and the images are there any other files that are uploaded or updated? - i can check through make sure it's not a permissions thing my end.
thanks
Hmmm, that sounds like everything.
I'll double check my code and see if I've missed something.
You can double check the umbraco.aspx html source (view source) to see if any meta tags with the name msapplication-task are added. You should have 1 per area you have permissions for.
Many thanks
Matt
no.
i got none of the msapplication-task meta tags.
uninstalled, reinstalled - still nothing, sorry
Ok, no problem, it's probably something I've missed =)
Will double check this evening.
Matt
Hi Guys,
I've uploaded another version, however I couldn't find anything wrong. I've added some additional error checking just incase, but if you still get the null object reference, I'm really not sure where it's coming from.

hi matt
thanks for your efforts!
i don't know what i am doing wrong - i still get nothing.
i uninstalled the previous version.
i deleted the line from the web.config
i reinstalled the new version 1.02
i still get no tasks in the source or on the pinned item.
does it make any changes to any other files? perhaps could be a permissions issue which is dying quietly?
it is not, obviously, the end of the world, and it obviously seems to be working for others, so it must be something my end.
