Changes in custom index for AEMaaCS not working

[NageshRaja]

Hey guys,

I am working on oak indexing and I have the below issue -

There is a customization of an OOTB index cqPageLucene. We are adding some additional paths to index by adding properties "includedPaths=/content/commerce/offers" and "querypaths=/content/commerce/offers"

Else, the index is exactly the same as OOTB index.

Following Index Names -

Customization of an OOTB index. These are indicated by appending -custom- followed by a numerical identifier to the original index name. For example: /oak:index/cqPageLucene-custom-1

However, the deployment of the above index is leading to AEM Sites Search not working on the authoring site.

Removing the index is fixing the problem.

We tried below 2 approaches to fix the problem -

1. Rename the index to cqPageLucene-custom-2
2. Rename the index altogether to something custom like cqOffer-custom-1

But ideally even the first index name cqPageLucene-custom-1 is correct and should have worked!

BR,

Nagesh

Could you verify if the following entries are present in your _oak_index(.content.xml) within the repository?

        </indexRules>
    </cqPageLucene-custom-1>
    <packageLucene/>
    <screensContentJcrPrimaryType/>
</jcr:root>

Then you should have the following entry in ui.apps filter.xml as well.

<filter root="/oak:index/cqPageLucene-custom-1" mode="update_properties"/>

Hi @NageshRaja ,

In this case you enabled indexing of nodes only under /content/commerce/offers. 

By default, cqPageLucene is indexing everything (according to the definition) under root except paths in excludedPaths(/var, /etc/replication, /etc/workflow/instances, /jcr:system).

Why did you need to customize queryPaths and includedPaths?

Try to create custom index like com.cqPageLucene-0-custom-1 and configure it with "includedPaths=/content/commerce/offers" and "querypaths=/content/commerce/offers".

Best regards,

Kostiantyn Diachenko.

yes @Asutosh_Jena_ the cqPageLucene-custom-1 is present as is.

Hi @NageshRaja, 

Can you share your index definition once here?

Thanks,

Hey @Rohan_Garg, please check your inbox for the same! The approach #2 worked for us, I have also sent you the logs for the same.

Hi @NageshRaja, I tried to use the OTB lucene index with some custom paths and had no problem! However, creating a custom index with your custom paths would be the best way to go as suggested by @konstantyn_diachenko
Is there any particular reason why you are looking to override only OTB index definition?
