I do not see any new Content or Doc Type created. Nor do I see the Blog Management Tab in Content Dashboard.

I see Smart Blog under Installed Packages. But Uninstall button there doesnt work.

Please help.

Never Mind

I was using the wrong version of SmartBlog I guess.

Since it said that v1 was compatible till Umbraco 6.0.6, I tried installing SmartBlog v2 for Umbraco 6.2.1, wherein i faced this error.

However, then I tried installing SmartBlog v1 on Umbraco 6.2.1 and it worked.
