Hi everybody , ( I feel it is biggest issue in episerver mvc template why it was not taken care and why no body even respond to this question)

did any one of u face the below issue with alloy mvc site or any custom Episerver cms site developed based on mvc template ?
if u restrict a block on a page then the page it self is not visible. for example i restricted "news list" block on alloy-track page by deleting everyone group from it. but note that "Alloy-track page is having access to everybody. so expected functionality is user should see "Alloy-track" page but news list block should not visible. (this is default behaviour in Alloy - webforms ).
But actual behaviour is it is redirecting to login page !!!
note : I am facing same problem in my custom Episerver mvc site. can any body help me how to resolve this issue. thanks in advance

Hi nani,

Thanks for sharing this. I have reported this as a bug (#106256) and we hope to have a fix available in the next patch release.

Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

Hi code monkey. I checked the crm but your user isnt connected to the support so guess you have used another email to register the case. Found one case that i believe is yours and have dropped you an email (gmail) to request more info to confirm its the correct one.

i just updated via nuget to version 7.0.859.24 of Episerver.Framework and Episerver.CMS,Core, and now i get this error in event viewer when i try to access my website:

Could not load file or assembly 'EPiServer.Shell, Version=7.0.859.16, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=8fe83dea738b45b7' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

so something still depends on the old version of Episerver.shell.

i have earlier updated via addons in episerver and my packages.config file in modules folder look like this:






could it be some of those dll that relay on the old version of episerver.shell?

@larswo, This should be handled by version redirect. When installing any episerver nuget package we configure the application to use the newly installed version of the assembly. However, we have had cases when this have failed and this might be one of them. Can you look in the web.config file and make sure that there is a assembly binding configuration for episerver.shell (and all other episerver assemblies) the redirects any references to use the patch 4 version of the assemblies (version number ends with .24).

While trying to install this patch following the installation instructions i notice that the version of the EPiServer.CMS.Core and EPiServer.Framework which Nuget is trying to update is 7.5.394.2(which i believe requires you to upgrade site to CMS 7.5 right?) while the patch 4 assembly version should be 7.0.586.24. I have tried to use the Nuget Powershell Addon and added the version number i want to install, but this method allways fails saying that i have no compatible project(s) found. Which doesn't make sense. The customer only wants to install patch 4 without having to upgrade to CMS 7.5. Any pointers on what to do?

With the following command, you should be able to update to Patch 4 of the CMS.

Update-Package EPiServer.CMS.Core -Version 7.0.586.24

I get this error trying to install with PMC:

Ive also tried browsing http://nuget.episerver.com/ hoping to find the package as a standalone download so i can install the dll's manually but the links on the page doesn't send you to the correct package and the Project site links all send you to a "Sorry, but the page could not be found" - page.

Dec 10, 2013 04:12 PM

"'EPiServer.CMS.Core' was not installed in any project." indicates that you don't have a previous version of the nuget packages present in the project. In that case you should use install-package instead of update-package with the exact same parameters.

The links to EPiServer.CMS.Core on the page linked below all lead to the info page for the CMS 6 patch. Not very useful :)
