Mark, there was a period of incompatible builds, during which the classes referenced from wizard components had different names. This has been changed back as soon as we realized that this brought trouble. Apparently you had this incompatible build installed, and it caused problems. The workaround suggested by Honza is correct. We will make sure not to introduce such incompatibilities in the future. I;m now marking this issue as FIXED. |
