hi

I am having trouble with “A complex mapping model” section (the “UnCloudNotesMappingModel_v3_to_v4” part)
I followed all the steps as described in the book but I end up getting the following error:
(I did not include the whole log because it was too long)

I thought I might have missed a step or two or I opened the project file of the “v4” folder of the source code downloaded from raywenderlich.com and tried again only to end up with the same error message when I ran the compiled code.
(by the way, I made sure that I downloaded the latest course material, v4.01)

does anyone have any idea why this happening??

thanks.

I am having this problem in version 5.0 as well. I think maybe we missed a step along the way. If I find it, I’ll post here.

Ok, so there must have been something wrong with the mapping file, UnCloudNotesMappingModel_v3_to_v4.xcmappingmodel.

I right-clicked the file in the project browser and deleted it, and recreated it from the Mapping model section.

This seemed to fix things and now it migrates correctly. I hope that helps.
