Hi again,

After upgrading, two new errors occurred.

1. When importing the items, it keeps clearing my website settings.
2. URL's to the items does not work unless I reset the IIS or use the &purge=true parameter.

Let me know if you need som more information.

Kind regards

Mikkel Ulstrup

Hi Mikkel,

Could you make a screen what website settings are cleared?
Could you make a screen with your Url settings from the Settings->Web and Http->Customized Urls?
Regards, Dmitrij

website settings

I am unable to reproduce this after setting it up on my other machine.

Settings->Web and Http->Customized Urls

This issue still exists. Here are my URL settings.

Hi Mikkel,
got it reproduced. TFS# 40590 created.
Regards, Dmitrij

I managed to reproduce the error with the website settings in 9.3.5.

See the result here:

https://www.screencast.com/t/R2ZzLXILzp0

It removes the item (just the relation, not the entire itemtype), that was originally set as website setting item. Then it displays all the fields from my itemtype that I am importing.

Theese are the settings from my codefirst item:

 [Item("Project item", "Projects with information")]
    [AreaRule,
           ModuleAttachmentRule(true),
           StructureRule(StructureContextType.Pages),
           ParentRule(ParentRestrictionRule.ParentType.RegularPage),
          ChildRule(true), //ChildRule("ExampleCategory", "ExampleRegion")
        ]
    [Category("SGM")]
    [CustomizedUrls]
    [Icon(Dynamicweb.Core.UI.Icons.KnownIcon.FlashOn)]
    [TitleField("Title")]

The website setting problem does not occur in 9.3.4

Hi Mikkel,
once you have selected the checkboxes to "Remove missing" and "Delete associated" and if you are not importing the item which is associated with your web site
(and it seems to me that you have associated the web site with the same item type that you are importing from the Data integration job)
from your source xml file - the missed item will be removed from ItemType_* table and from the web site association too.
I was checking it with ItemProvider 1.0.10. I've set the web site to some item type and filled the item fields and saved the changes. Item type table contains the saved data.
Imported the xml file with same item type rows but without the row which was associated with the web site settings.
Opened the web site and noted the relation was empty and no item fields were shown.
So you need to include the item which is used in your web site settings being present in the xml file for the import or use another item type for the web site settings.

Hi Dmitriy,

once you have selected the checkboxes to "Remove missing" and "Delete associated" and if you are not importing the item which is associated with your web site (and it seems to me that you have associated the web site with the same item type that you are importing from the Data integration job)

I have selected both "remove missing" and "Delete associated", but the associated item type for the website settings is another item type than the one I am importing.

Imported the xml file with same item type rows but without the row which was associated with the web site settings. Opened the web site and noted the relation was empty and no item fields were shown.

This is not what happend. As you can see, after the import (which is when the video was recorded), no item is associated, but fields (from the worng item type) are shown.

Kind regards

Mikkel Ulstrup

Hi Mikkel,
I can not get it reproduced. Could you try with a newly created item type?
What are your steps? Could you send your source xml file, data integration job xml file and your item types definitions xml's( or source codes)?

Hi Mikkel,
finally got it reproduced. Problem is in the xslt "RelevantAreaId" part:

        <column columnName="DestinationPageID">
            <xsl:value-of select="2382"/>
          </column>
          <column columnName="RelevantAreaId">
            <xsl:value-of select="1"/>
          </column>

You need to remove the part for "RelevantAreaId", as you are importing items as pages to the root/some destination page. So it needs to be just:
       <column columnName="DestinationPageID">
            <xsl:value-of select="2382"/>
          </column>
