What I have: Under IIS: I have Sitecore 9.0.2 XP0 with SXA 1.7 and SOLR for indexing working fine.

Under Visual Studio: I have Habitat Solution downloaded from https://codeload.github.com/Sitecore/Sitecore.HabitatHome.Platform/zip/9.0.2.2 The solution gets build and published using gulp successfully.

Upon successfully publishing, I browsed the Sitecore client and it broke

Error:

enter image description here

Stack trace: enter image description here

Error in the log file:

Could not find constructor in ReflectionUtil.CreateObject: Sitecore.XA.Foundation.Search.Providers.Solr.SolrSearchIndex. The constructor parameters may not match or it may be an abstract class.

What I have checked:

  • Name of SOLR cores
  • Disabled Sitecore.ContentSearch.SolrCloud.SwitchOnRebuild.config.example
  • The version of Sitecore.Kernel.dll under IIS(before publishing code) and under Visual Studio to be same.

I have no luck till now.

Can you please help me, where to luck further for this?

Any suggestion will be helpful. Thanks in advance.

  • My guess is that you have a partial index definition (probably because the index definition config file is disabled but another patch file that configures that index is enabled). Can you load /sitecore/admin/showconfig.aspx and review your indexes? Add them to your question for future troubleshooting, too. Commented Jan 28, 2019 at 17:21
  • @DanSinclair: On the show config page also, i am getting the same error. So, not able to access the page. Commented Jan 28, 2019 at 18:44

1) The root cause of your problem may be that you are not using proper version of SXA with your version of Sitecore.

For Sitecore 9 Update 2 (Sitecore 9.0.2) you should have SXA 1.7 Update 1 (SXA 1.7.1) installed.

Take a look on official compatibility matrix here: https://kb.sitecore.net/articles/180187

2) For Habitat actually you don't need to install SXA. There is another Sitecore repo called HabitatHome.Platform where SXA is needed.

3) Also make sure you are using correct version of Habitat that is compatible with your version of Sitecore. It should be version / release v1.6 of Habitat in your case.

Get code from here: https://github.com/Sitecore/Habitat/releases/tag/v1.6

4) Follow Getting started for your particular version of Habitat to install all proper prerequisites: https://github.com/Sitecore/Habitat/blob/v1.6/docs/01-Getting-Started.md

  • Sorry. Got to know of the actual cause quite late. Commented Feb 17, 2019 at 15:14

The issue was because I missed to create the SOLR cores for SXA after the installation.
