SharePointers

When checking in an item in a custom list, I was being presented with the following error: Value does not fall within the expected range. at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFieldCollection.GetFieldByInternalName(String strName, Boolean bThrowException) at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFieldCollection.GetFieldByInternalName(String strName) at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPListItem.get_MissingRequiredFields() at Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.Checkin.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) After much head-scratching and nightmarish debugging, I found that the answer was very simple: Do not have the "Required" attribute set to true in your content type definition, but rather specify this in your custom list schema. Hope this helps!

When using STSDEV to create a custom list as a feature, I had my solution deploying and my feature activating without a problem, but then when I created the list I got the error: ERROR: Exception from HRESULT: 0x81070201 I looked through the log files and found that the Schema.xml file was not included in my feature manifest as an <ElementFile> element. Once I added this it fixed this error
