Earlier this week the Sitefinity team announced the availability of Sitefinity 3.7 SP4. This update is now available in the downloads section of your account.
The primary benefits of this release include:
Be sure to backup your web site and read the upgrade instructions before attempting to apply this service pack. For additional help, I uploaded a video showing the upgrade process I used for Sitefinity Watch:
Watch the full-sized video on Telerik TV.
If you’re upgrading your web site to .NET 4.0 while applying this patch, be to ensure that the .NET 4.0 Framework is installed on your web server. In addition, you might need to make configuration changes to IIS to switch the target framework for your web site to .NET 4.0. I failed to do this for Sitefinity Watch and received the following error:
Configuration Error
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.
Parser Error Message: Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Framework' or one of its dependencies. This assembly is built by a runtime newer than the currently loaded runtime and cannot be loaded.
After I modified my web site, through IIS, to use .NET 4.0 this error went away.
Below are the full details for what can be found in this service pack.
