Editor page not working

[markprouse]

Hi!

I like this add-on so thought i'd give it a try. I am using Umbraco 7.14. I have just done a really quick setup using your Person example. My section loads, my persons list loads. However if you click on any person an error is displayed;

Exception Details
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just to be clear the following work;

• Section
• Child listing of Person's
• Column click Ordering of Persons
• Filter List
• Deleting a Person

The only thing that does not work atm is if you click into a Person. It then object refs with the GetCacheItem.

From my super limited knowledge, if I am using my own tables and even own Repository implementation using my own class of FluidityRepository<Person, int> surely why would the data source be using the umbraco cache? I thought all this data would be outside the Umbraco cache as its custom?

I'm guessing it can't locate the configured datatype (whether the ID or label has changed since the docs were written, I'm not sure). I'd check your editor config to make sure you datatypes exist.

RE the cache issue, Fluidity caches resovled data types to save looking them up later. It uses Umbraco's cache to do this, hence why it's in the stack trace.

Thanks for your hint. Managed to get it working. I think the data Types are different for Umbraco 7.14 so as long as you set them explicitly for each field it works.
