We are seeing the error Tracker.Current is not initialized appearing in our logs, despite the fact that we have Xdb.Enabled set to false and Xdb.Tracking.Enabled set to true (we are using some basic personalization rules, but not storing anything to MongoDB). What other things should I check to eliminate this error message from the logs?

On a side note, our layout does not have @Html.Sitecore().VisitorIdentification() and I assume this is not needed as we are not using Xdb; is this the right assumption?

  • Which version of Sitecore do you use? Apr 16, 2018 at 14:18
  • @PeterProchazka We're not using MongoDB (hence Xdb.Enabled being set to false), we do have xDB available in the license and we're using 8.2 u 4. Apr 16, 2018 at 15:53

You need to include @Html.Sitecore().VisitorIdentification() in your layout. Without this, Sitecore will not identify the request as being a legitimate one and instead detect it as being a robot.

Since you have set Xdb.Enabled = false and Xdb.Tracking.Enabled = true, you are using in-memory tracking of users which will allow you to personalize based on session activity. The tracker needs to be initialized to allow you to do this, which means the visitor needs to be identified as not being a robot first.
