WebPartConnection via XML based Provisioning

Question

I can provision the following on a page via XML-based provisioning:

• Query Filter webpart
• List View webpart

I am trying to connect the ListView webpart to the Query Filter webpart so I can filter by a querystring called EventID.

Although, I do not get any deployment errors, the web parts provisioned on the test page are not connected. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Note: This has to work through XML provisioning only.

Here is the provisioning XML:

      <Module Name="SitePages_1033\STS\doctemp\smartpgs" Url="SitePages" SetupPath="1033\STS\doctemp\smartpgs" RootWebOnly="FALSE" Path="Files\SitePages">
    <File Url="TestPage.aspx" Type="GhostableInLibrary" Level="Published" Path="spstd1.aspx" IgnoreIfAlreadyExists="True" ReplaceContent="True">

Answer 1

I think the problem is that you have not put the code of ListViewWebPart inside <![CDATA[]]> tag. Something like this:

<View List="Lists/ClientCalendar" BaseViewID="2" Type="CALENDAR" WebPartZoneID="Content Zone" WebPartOrder="1" ID="ClientCalandar">
                       <![CDATA[
              <WebPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2">
                <Assembly>Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c</Assembly>
                <TypeName>Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.ListViewWebPart</TypeName>
               <Title>Client Calendar</Title>
               <TitleUrl>clientcalendar.aspx</TitleUrl>
             </WebPart>
           ]]>

          </View>

Answer 2

<View
            List="Lists/Tasks"
            BaseViewID="5"
            WebPartZoneID="Header"
            WebPartOrder="1">
            <![CDATA[

              <webParts>
               <webPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v3">
                <metaData>
                 <type name="**Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.XsltListViewWebPart**,Microsoft.SharePoint,Version=15.0.0.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" />
                 <importErrorMessage>Cannot import this Web Part.</importErrorMessage>
                </metaData>
                <data>
                 <properties>
                  <property name="AllowConnect" type="bool">True</property>
                  <property name="Title" type="string">My Task</property>
                  <property name="AllowConnect" type="bool">True</property>
                  <property name="AllowClose" type="bool">False</property>
                  <property name="ChromeType" type="chrometype">TitleOnly</property>
                 </properties>
                </data>
               </webPart>
              </webParts>
             ]]>
          </View>

You must put "XsltListViewWebPart" instead of "QueryStringFilterWebPart"
