v4. Share doesn't work properly with custom content types

[alhol]

Hello! I'am new to this forum and Alfresco at all, so pls excuse me if something's wrong.
I have a custom model that worked fine in Alfresco 3.4. I've configured both Explorer and Share so that I could create content of my own custom types, modify it etc.
Now I have Alfresco 4.0.d server and it's necessary do the same with it. I've read a lots of docs, wiki, forums and http://ecmarchitect.com/archives/2012/01/09/1509 and done all the things described there. Now, Alfresco Explorer works perfectly (so I can make a conlcusion that my model is fine), but I have troubles with share. "Create content" menu shows all my types (share-documentlibrary-config.xml is configured appropriately). Plus, appearing (when I click on some type) form shows all my custom properties and assocs. But, when i click on "create" the message is displaing:

The item cannot be found. Either it has been removed or it has never existed.

Next, when I'm trying to get into the folder where I just tried to create content item, there are red strip on the top with message:

No items.

At the same time I can see created item in alfresco Explorer. Here is the log:

My types are added to share-documentlibrary-config.xml as they are in share-config-custom.xml. Am I need to do something else? I can provide all configs on demand. I dont need localization or i18n at this time. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

[kamielvdz]

Exactly! The point is I do not need to set my object with any content! I want it to be just an entity with a set of properties. If I configure share-config-custom.xml to show field cm:content and don't fill it when  object is created, it all works fine. It would be very good just to hide this field. But when I add <hide id="cm:content" /> it works as if I did nothing.

I had the same issue. You can work around this by using the hidden form control when creating the new content object. This creates an empty content property in the background. If you use <hide the content property is not set, which leads to all kinds of issues with the document library.
This is an example

<field id="cm:content" >
      <control template="/org/alfresco/components/form/controls/hidden.ftl" />
   </field>‍‍‍

Thank you very much, this was really helpful! It's a solution.

I am using v 4.0d and i am getting similar problem.  I have 260 documents in a folder where my custom model is applied to each of them. Have I have created a rule to specialize it and then add aspect when item are entered or created in this folder. When i browse this folder to page 5 or 6 it shows error error on screen and throws error in the logs.
