5.0 upgrade - all custom product edit pages broken
I've upgraded from 4.4 to 5.0, and when trying to edit any product that is a custom product type I get this error:
An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below. |

Whilst I'm at it, if I try to edit a back end page I get this error:
Could not find the specified key "Breadcrumb" or class id "PageResources".

Hello,
Concerning the error:
Could not find the specified key "Breadcrumb" or class id "PageResources".
Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. The issue was a conflict between the new Sitefinity breadcrumb control and our own breadcrumb control that we had built and installed ourselves. I only had to change the name of our breadcrumb control and that made it all work again.
The first issue (editing products with a custom product type produces error page) appears to be because my CatalogConfig.config is missing all the views and definitions for those product types. I've just created a new product type as a test and it's all working fine. So somehow recently I've lost all my custom product settings in the config files. I'm not sure if it was the 4.4 > 5.0 upgrade, or something going horribly wrong in our systems.
Update: Problem solved. My backup contained most of the relevant settings, and anything missing has been manually recreated. I'm still not sure how it happened, I assume this isn't a recognised upgrade bug?
Must not be because I just upgraded to 5.2 and your post saved me a lot of time.
Thanks!
