Kentico Error: Unable to cast object of type 'ASP.cmstemplatelayouts_blankmasterpage_ascx' to type 'CMS.PortalControls.CMSAbstractLayout

While working with Kentico CMS I have came across this annoying error.


Unable to cast object of type 'ASP.cmstemplatelayouts_blankmasterpage_ascx' to type 'CMS.PortalControls.CMSAbstractLayout

This is due the fact that the website is currently precompiling or related with a pre-compilation error with the website.

I normally fix this error my restart IIS or the app pool for the website.

    Hi Javier,

    Your practice is just right in this case. This error is actually more a dont.net oriented since the recompilation process can sometimes go wrong (thanks to caching related issues etc...).

    If you will have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask Kentico support team at:
    support [at] kentico.com

    Have a nice weekend!
