Sitecore control panel local indexes issue - indexes not listing

In this article, we are going to explain about very common issue -  local indexes issue

Few days back, I was also facing same issue that while trying to rebuild one of index from control panel.
There were no index listed on Indexing manager.

As I have attached screenshot

After looking at configs and running services.

Found that core name are not correct (as compare to search engine).
Since we are using solr, so we looked configs as

App_Config/Sitecore/ContentSearch/

~/Sitecore.ContentSearch.Solr.Index.Master.config

~/Sitecore.ContentSearch.Solr.Index.Web.config

~/Sitecore.ContentSearch.Solr.Index.Core.config 

and compared core with Solr admin portal (my instance solr url is : https://localhost:8983)

and correcting corename into configs, indexes started listing.


Hope this will help.

Rich Text Editor “Object reference not set to an instance of an object.” Issue

 There are situation, where on the click of show editor button for RTE field on an item may get issue as 

Rich Text Editor “Object reference not set to an instance of an object.” yellow screen error as popup

To resolve this issue there are few approach to verify (is there any item missing in CORE DB)

Apporach-1:

In Sitecore CMS, switch to Core db from right botton (Desktop view screen).

After that go to path /sitecore/system/Settings/Html Editor Profiles and verify that all expected RTE items exist or not?

Can check number of RTE items from working same instance (from other upper env, dev instance).

If any mismatch, then create package from there and installed at target instance.

IT works for me.

Apporach-2:

Trigger url as http://dev.local/sitecore/shell/Controls/Rich%20Text%20Editor/editorpage.aspx (replace instance name as yours)

and see issue, if it works then approach 1 will be the fix.


Hope this will.
