Custom Module Error
Hi,
I'm receiving following exception when the application starts. What could be the reason? I have installed a custom module called BrightcoveVideo under NHLPA.Modules namespace.

The error is caused by having incomplete OpenAccess mappings , e.g. the mappings for the base Content class are missing for some reason. One solution that i can propose to make sure the base classes ORM mappings are always included is to explicitly declare the Sitefinity model assembly in your OpenAccess data provider GetPersistentAssemblies method. For example in the products module SDK sample this is implemented like this:
peristentAssemblies = new Assembly[] typeof(ProductItem).Assembly ; , simply add the typeof(Telerik.Sitefinity.GenericContent.Model.Content).Assembly as additional item in the array , so this is also returned by the GetPersistentAssemblies method. This should make sure that the mappings of the Content base class are always included when your data provider is initialized for the first time.

Hi Radoslav,
Our previously developed custom modules doesnt compile on 4.1. Need help!!!
Cant't find sample SDK solution in 4.1.
SOS!!!

Hi Duneel,
I already ask the question, 4.1 SDK will be available next week.

Hi Ivan,
I did follow Salvo's blog post about upgrading custom modules. But it was published before the official release and Salvo confirms that it is missing some other changes happened after publishing the post.
I have created a support ticket explaining the exact issues I have with regard to upgrading custom modules and I'm still awaiting for an answer.
Thanks,
Duneel
Hi Duneel,
Thanks for getting back to me here. We are going to check your custom modules and try to figure out what the problem is.
