I don't know how this is happening (6.0 upgraded to 6.1 version)

www.marktold.com/screencast/sf_same_id.swf

but this is the solutin: www.sitefinity.com/.../duplicate-control-ids-after-upgrading-to-sitefinity-4-1

We did use the more - duplicate on the content blocks. Somehow it seems on the process it did not change the ID of the second content block.

It is a multilingual page and I think the error was only noticed on the pages copied over to another language.

So Telerik to reproduce (Sorry don't have the time now to do it myself) try this

Make multilingual site

Create one page and dublicate multiple content blocks. translate this page by copying it over from the first language and see if it happens.

Hello Markus,

Thank you for sharing this solution of the problem if someone else experiences it.

I created a 6.1 project and set German (default), Italian, English and French languages. Then I created a page and dropped a few content blocks. Then I duplicated my content blocks. IDs seem to be ok. Then I created an Italian page translation and chose to copy from German page. IDs were ok. I also chose to copy and sync my pages and again content block IDs were ok. Here is a video with my steps:

Please, let me know if I am doing something wrong in order to reproduce it.

Dear Miroslava

No problem - I usually don't mind finding bugs, reporting them, going back to reproduce them, make a screencast, report them, vote on PITS, ask again ..... as long as they get fixed :-)

At least I can reproduce it and it should be a case which is not happening to often. There are other bugs bothering me way more.

Hi Markus,

Yes, I agree with you that this is not a case that happens often. But at least it is a bug and should be filed. Since there is a workaround for it - you can edit manually the ID of the control, more critical bugs will be fixed prior this one.  

Thank you once again for reporting any problems that you find!

Dear Miroslava

Just wanted to tell you that I ran into the same problem again.

Multilingual site. Add content block to de version, duplicated that and bang - all other versions of the site produced an 500 error.

After removing the duplicated content block and adding it 'manually' it worked again.

I wonder what you are using as bug tracking system. Have it extended with notifications so every bug not fixed within 6 month will start mailing out to someone untill they get anoyed and fix it :-)

The good thing about bugs not beeing fixed is that you get used to them and know what you are doing wrong. Just feel sorry for guys who run into a problem for the first time.

Markus
