Framework won't apply.

[RayYates]

A custom framework that previously loaded and was able to applied in beta2 no longer applies in beta3

I receive this error: Failed to apply framework: Failed to install template for page code ABOUT: Error compiling template: line 49:Found "40;38: when expecting an attribute name.

This error message makes no sense at all. Line 49 is the terminating </mvt:item> corresponding to <mvt:item name="body">

I created a new ABOUT page pasting the page code from the .pkg file and it compiled just fine. I feel it's unacceptable that an entire framework should fail to load because of a problem with a single page or item.

Better would be an error report (not a popup) at the end listing any components that had problems while the rest of the framework loaded normally. It's possible for a user to do something while editing in Dreamweaver then the entire framework fail to load.

my 2 cents.

Re: Framework won't apply.

I had a similar issue. On the SRCH page I unassign the product_list and assign the powrsrch items. When trying to apply CSS beta 3 it fails because the search product list mvc file is missing. I went back and assigned the product_list item and then was able to apply the framework. Then I unassigned the product_list item. This will confuse quite a few people.

Re: Framework won't apply.

I think this is a different issue. Error compiling template:

Although I had the same experience as Bill. (Why should enabling an item then disabling it, even though it's not used, crash the framework?) It generated a different error message.
