You mentioned on Twitter about the same issue with uTube - I suspect the same. Somewhere along the line the assembly signatures have changed. I'm going to recompile uTube with the v4.6.1 assemblies, and test it out.
The only reason we do that on uTube, (and I'm guessing Gecko Uploadify) are using the AddPropertyType method in our installers is that there was no way to create new Media Types via the default package actions. I haven't checked if that's possible in v4.6.1 - if so, that would be a better resolution to our problem! :-)
After install fails you can do the final steps manually. You're probably just need to create the datatype and add it to the Folder Media type.
Go to developer, datatype and check if the Gecko Uploadify datatype is created. If not, just create a new datatype, name it something you can remember and select render method "Gecko Uploadify".
Go to Settings, open the Folder media type. Add a tab, name it something like "Upload files ...". Add a new generic property, name it as you like "Upload" and select the datatype you created before.
Umbraco install failing isn't what is referred to, just the Gecko Uploadify package install. After a successful Umbraco installation and during the Gecko Uploadify installation you'll get an error screen in the development section, you will still be able to load the Data Types and will be able to add a new one.
Sorry about the confusion. I hoped I had made myself clear enough by writing "Error installing on Umbraco 4.6.1" in the Gecko Uploadify forum. It's not very obvious which forum the post is in as it only shows in the breadcrumb.
Error installing on Umbraco 4.6.1
While installing your package on Umbraco 4.6.1 I get the following error
method not found umbraco.cms.businesslogic.ContentType.AddPropertyType
This also happends when installing other packages .. I suspect the error is in Umbraco.

Hi Jesper,

Cheers, Lee.
So the package might need to rebuild with the 4.6 dll's? If that's the case for Gecko Uploadify could this request also be in the next release? http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/gecko-uploadify/feedback,-suggestions,-bugs/13119-Reload-tree-after-uploading

I'm also experiencing this problem
Me to. Its really an essential package for smooth usage of umbraco. Any chance of a swift update?
Workaround ...

This worked for me.

Thanks Jesper. Worked like a charm!

@Jesper. How did you create a datatype when the install fails? Umbraco is not available for dev until it installs.
Hi Dwayne,
Umbraco install failing isn't what is referred to, just the Gecko Uploadify package install. After a successful Umbraco installation and during the Gecko Uploadify installation you'll get an error screen in the development section, you will still be able to load the Data Types and will be able to add a new one.
Hope this helps.

@Eric. Ok. That is not apparent to me from the title of this post "Error installing on Umbraco 4.6.1". I thought it refered to a full install failure.

@Jesper. No worries. I am new to the forum, so still learning my way around ;~) Thanks for the reply.
