Further info: i think it any partial view that's using IPublishedContentHelper isn't working. I was able to comment those lines from ublogsyglobalseometa.cshtml, for example, and it worked again. Obviously it's not fetching the metadata anymore, but at least I don't have an error at the top of my page now where the meta data is supposed to be.

So that's an issue in your uHelpsy library, I think. Some kind of change in umbraco 6.2 causes the partial view to not load with that uHelpsy object

Anthony, could you see this Umbraco issue I opened, please? http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-4730

I think there was a breaking change in Umbraco 6.2 that affects uHelpsy/uBlogsy, but it appears the fix is to rebuild uBlogsy against umbraco 6.2

They just updated that issue. It appears a rebuild is not actually needed

Hi, Steve, 

Do work your site after upgrade?

No, uBlogsy is not working after the upgrade to 6.2

........................

I confirm that  UBlogsy don't work with 6.2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]
   uHelpsy.Extensions.IPublishedContentExtensions.GetValueFirstOf(IPublishedContent d, String[] aliases) in d:\_PROJECTS\Personal\uHelpsy - Library\uHelpsy\Source\uHelpsy.Web\Extensions\IPublishedContentExtensions.cs:22
   ASP._Page_Views_Partials_uBlogsyGlobalSeoMeta_cshtml.Execute() 

Per the Umbraco team, uBlogsy is not performing some null checking, and throwing the errors we're observing. 

There's some more info on the Umbraco issue I had linked above: http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-4730

Hi, Steve

but I think that the Umbraco team is not envolved into Ublogsy if the problem is into UBlogsy.

Have you some suggestions?

Yes that's correct, I was just pointing out an issue that they identified. If I understand correctly, the issue is that in some functions like the one you identified in the NullReferenceException above, is that uBlogsy is not checking for null values of type IPublishedContent being passed.

So, I'm available to push UBlogsy sources on GitHub and collaborate with you and others to solve the bugs and develop Ublogsy. But I read the Dag post that we can contact him on Twitter to help http://our.umbraco.org/forum/getting-started/questions-about-runway-and-modules/53220-UBlogsy-Is-still-an-active-module-or-not

I just had the same issue. Actually overall uBlogsy is working well for me using Umbraco 6.2.1 until this morning. All of a suddon I got a bunch of System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. errors this morning. I did some research and was close to rewriting uHelpsy.Helper and uHelpsy.Singletons BUT I thought I would try to recycle the application pool on my IIS (7.0) and voila, everything worked again. I can see in my log file that the threads had gone up to 92. After the recycle it went back to thread 1 of course and things are fine for now. I know this doesn't solve anything but I thought I would share my issues and quick fix.

Hannes, just curious if you are using the webforms or MVC version of uBlogsy? I'm using webforms version, and overall it's still pretty broken on 6.2.1 and I think I'm getting the same NullReferenceException errors. Recycling the application pool doesn't help on my end.

Biagio, are you on webforms or MVC version of uBlogsy? I'm running uBlogsy webforms version 3.0.2, and Umbraco 6.2.1, so I just wanted to confirm what versions you're running, to see if we have the same environment and issue.

Steve, I'm using the webforms version of uBlogsy. I installed uBlogsy_Webforms_3.0.2.zip for Umbraco 6.2.1. Mind you I had to make a few changes to make it work well for me. Some of those changes were:

- rewrite uCommentsyShowLinkToComments.cshtml to use DynamicNodeContext instead of Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage

- download and setup custom "codebehind" for comment form, needed to remove website field and subscriber field

- add two fields to the uCommentsySubscriber Member Type: uCommentsyMemberName, uCommentsyMemberCommentUrlName, needed to enable multiple commenting

- change ControlToValidate name for message RequiredFieldValidator to unique field for comment form

- add try catch routines to uBlogsy_months, uBlogsyPostListLabels, uBlogsyPostListTags "post" views to to avoid erros if none are linked

- adapt jquery code to always toggle blog post archive

I also removed the uBlogsyWidgetListBlogRoll macro from the _uBlogsyBaseBlog.master.

When you look at the log file, what do the errors stay that you are gettings?

Hi, Steve I use MVC.

We're also getting errors. Are these related? (do you need any other information?)

Has anyone found a solution for this? 

Hi, Steve

Have you solved your problems?

Have you tried if "publish at" work now with UBlogsy MVC + U6.2.1?

I just tried adding a date in the "publish at" field and still am getting an error on the script that renders the blog post. The error message where the post should be is "Error loading MacroEngine script (file: )"

I've tried other suggestions in this post and other posts in this forum and haven't had any success.

Biagio, I just noticed you said "mvc version" but I am still using the web forms version of uBlogsy. Have you found a solution?

Sigh, noo....I'm blocked and my customer a bit not happy for this...I think that for the next, I'm not using UBlogsy anymore...

Biagio, did you try replacing the dlls in the bin folder on your website with the dlls in the patch Anthony just released? It worked for me.

It's for MVC, too? I read only for Webform or I misread. ???

Hi,

I tried...I upgrade from 6.1.6 - 6.2.2 and upload Patch for Umb6.2.zip .... and the site works now! Now I made some other checks....THX!!!!!!!!!!

is working on a reply...
