Can't Rebuild Models After Deleting Document Type
Closed this issue · 6 comments
Having a very strange issue with trying to generate models after deleting a document type from Umbraco.
I recently upgraded to Umbraco 8.3.0 using Models Builder 8.1.0.
I haven't actually tried this on a fresh copy of Umbraco, so this could be a rare case....
If I create another document type, with the same alias, models generate fine, but once I delete it, it breaks again. Here's the error log:
Failed to build models.
Don't know how to map ModelType with content type alias "imageGridItem".at Umbraco.Core.Models.PublishedContent.ModelType.MapToName(Type type, Dictionary

Something, in your site, references the "imageGridItem" content type and a property value converter reports that the value of a property is of that type. Therefore, ModelsBuilder tried to map that "imageGridItem" alias to an actual generated type. But, if you have deleted the type with that alias, nothing is generated, and ... it fails.
Can you look into your content types for something (grid?) referencing "imageGridItem"?
I've given the project a search, aswell as a quick search in the database to see if the content type is still present even after deleting it, no where to be seen - I cleared out my generated models, rebuild my project to ensure the compiled dll hadn't persisted the value and nothing seems to want to work.
I'll try it out on a fresh install on 8.3.0 to see if it's a persisting issue and keep you posted!
Managed to get to the bottom of it, so I had the nested content item 'Image Grid Item' referenced in a nested content data type. I had gone back and removed the blank entry where the 'Image Grid Item' once was, and it's working again.
However, on the fresh Umbraco install, if I try and replicate this it doesn't seem to cause an issue.
I'll have a play around with it on the fresh Umbraco install and see if I can replicate it.
Unable to replicate in the fresh install, will close this ticket down. Seems that it's a very rare case that this would occur. Thanks!
No worries, yes it might have been a glitch.
@zpqrtbnk we're having a similar issue. But there is no indiciation about which document type has been deleted. Any idea how we can find the deleted doc type?
We're using umbraco modelsbuilder v8.1.6
