It seems that you've added the AllowedTypes attribute to a property that doesn't support it.

Here is the rub, the production site run just fine. This code was provided to me from the original developer as the current code. However I have found differences in the bin folder file versions. I believe that I will need to manually match up the development version to the production build.
