Fetching Data Rockit QuickStart Tutorial Errors

2

Has anybody successfully completed the Fetching Data step of the Rockit Quickstart tutorial?  I get the following errors when I run my project:

Error 1 Make sure that the class defined in this code file matches the 'inherits' attribute, and that it extends the correct base class
Error 2 The name 'gList' does not exist in the current context
Error 3 The name 'upnlContent' does not exist in the current context
Error 4 The name 'gPeople' does not exist in the current context
Error 5 The name 'gPeople' does not exist in the current context
Error 6 The name 'gList' does not exist in the current context
Error 7 The name 'gList' does not exist in the current context

I have the following where I changed the class name to HelloWorldFetchingData:
public partial class HelloWorldFetchingData : Rock.Web.UI.RockBlock
 
On the markup page I changed the inherits to the following:
<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="HelloWorldFetchingData.ascx.cs"
Inherits="RockWeb.Plugins.org_rocket.Tutorials.HelloWorldFetchingData" %>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    I can vouch that others have successfully completed that tutorial. To help us troubleshoot, you'll need to post your complete code example (both the full .ascx and the .ascx.cs).

      Thanks for the responses.  I ran into two problems.  The first being I had not capitalized "Web" in the namespace RockWeb.Plugins.org_rocket.Tutorials.   The second problem was that the tutorial guides you in Step 3 to create a grid id called "gPeople" but the ascx.cs file trys to pass the data to a grid called "gList".  I changed the gList to gPeople in the cs code and it runs great but I guess it would also work to call the grid "gList".

      Does your code-behind file ( HelloWorldFetchingData.ascx.cs ) also have a matching namespace?

      namespace RockWeb.Plugins.org_rocket.Tutorials
{
    public partial class HelloWorldFetchingData : Rock.Web.UI.RockBlock 
    {
        ...
    }
}
