Author One of collage was facing issue when he tries to get Advertisement content selector. On below code he used to get the error.
| ContentSelector adcontent = CommerceContext.Current.TargetingSystem.SelectionContexts["advertising"].GetSelector(); |
He was new to commerce server and he was getting System.NullReferenceException as shown below.
You will get such errors if targeting context details are not properly configured in web.config. Couple of checks you can make.
1. Make sure CommerceServerSelectionModule exist in <httpModules>
|
<add name="CommerceContentSelection" type="Microsoft.CommerceServer.Runtime.Targeting.CommerceContentSelectionModule, Microsoft.CommerceServer.Runtime, Version=6.0.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" /> |
2. Make sure Advertisement entry is properly configured in contentselection settings
|
<contentSelection> <add name="Advertising" cacheName="Advertising" selectionPipeline="advertising" eventPipeline="recordevent" redirectUrl="./redir.aspx"/> </contentSelection> |
After performing both changes, we are able to get the advertisement content selector.
