    UrlPicker : update from uComponent V2 to uComponent V3.xx failed

    Hello,

    I have asked the same question few weeks ago with no reply. But i'll try to detail a bit more my problem and hopefully someone will have an answer.

    I have a website with umbraco 4.7.1 and uComponent 2.1. Many existing nodes have one or more  UrlPickers saved as json serialized and values in them.

    If I look at the contentXml table for one of them I can see the following serialized json :

    <contactFormPage>
        <![CDATA[{"LinkTitle":"contact us","Mode":1,"NodeId":27793,"Url":"http://www.mywebsite.dk/contact/contact-form","NewWindow":false}]]>
    </contactFormPage>

    According to the uComponent documentation :

    "It is theoretically possible to perform a simple upgrade of uComponents from v1.0 by simply over-writing the current uComponents.Core.dll file..."

    and the UrlPicker documentation :

    "Note to current users: You should be able to upgrade to this version of URL Picker without any data loss from current nodes whatsoever."

    So (in my dev env) I have just replaced the my uComponent v2 dll to the v3.1 and rebuild my solution.

    And when I open the backend, all the URL Pickers have lost the title and all Urls have lost the nodeId

    When I publish the nodes, the contentXml for my contact form is now (v3) :

    <contactFormPage>
        <![CDATA[{"Title":"","Mode":1,"NodeId":null,"Url":"http://www.kilroy.dk.local.novicell.dk/contact","NewWindow":false}]]>
    </contactFormPage>

    As you can see, Title didn't take the value of LinkTitle and NodeId is null....

    Question : does someone has a migration script ? or do you have any suggestions on how I should code one ?

    Thank you very much !

    Fabrice

    Hi Fabrice,

    Apologies for not picking up on your previous post about this.  I'm not sure what the cause of the problem is - as I didn't develop the UrlPicker data-type.

    Best bet for a resolution is to raise a bug on our CodePlex - http://ucomponents.codeplex.com/WorkItem/Create - I'll assign it to the developer who worked on UrlPicker, and hopefully figure out what is causing the issue.

    Thanks, Lee.

    Hello,

    "diachedelic" was corrected the bug on LinkTitle but there is still a bug with the Mode :

    The "Mode" field doesn't mean the same in version 2.1 and version 3 that's why I can't get my values ok with I migrate from 2.1 to 3.

    In v2.1, Mode means :

    0 : url

    1: Content

    And in v3, Mode means :

    1: Url

    2: Content

     Any ideas how to solve this ?

    Thank you very much

    Fabrice

    Hi Fabrice,

    I was not aware of that breaking change in UrlPicker (sorry).  I'd recommend keeping with the CodePlex workitem - hopefully James (diachedelic) might have a solution for you?

    Thanks, Lee.
