Error creating new Commerce site

Hi,

I tried to create a new Commerce solution using the latest Visual studio extension and nuget packages.
Althought creating a new Commerce solution is pretty straight forward, I end up with the following error message when starting the site (both commerce manager and frontend site)

There are incomplete migration steps. The site can be in unstable state. Please navigate to front-end site and complete remaining migration steps, then restart Commerce Manager site. If you see this message on the front-end site, it means no Catalog Content models (decorated with the CatalogContentType attribute) were found. Add a Catalog Content type, or set the appSetting 'episerver:SkipCatalogContentModelCheck' to true to bypass this check. Warning! Bypassing this check in the Commerce Manager site or other application which does not have the content model types available could lead to data loss!

I followed all the steps from the documentation

Using:
Visual Studio 2013
EPiServer CMS Visual Studio Extension 9.1.0.116
EPiServer.CMS 9.2.0
EPiServer.Commerce 9.0.0

I'm not able to log in to the site or commerce manager because of this error.
Is it safe to set 'episerver:SkipCatalogContentModelCheck' to true since it can cause data loss?
Or did I forget something?

Hi,

What you should do is to create some content model types in front-end site, build it, start the site for the migration steps to complete, then restart the commerce manager site.

episerver:SkipCatalogContentModelCheck should not be added to Commerce Manager site.

Regards,

Thanks Quan!

I created a dummy ProductContent type.

[CatalogContentType(
        DisplayName = "DummyProduct", 
        GUID = "4965d65c-9415-43dd-ad9c-3d4d080fd27d", 
        Description = "")]
public class DummyProduct : ProductContent
{}

After that I was able to start the migration.

although I think it's kind of weird to create a dummy content type before starting the migration, it solves my problem for now.
