core.wcm.components 2.23.4 appear to uninstall or un-index

[b-lager]

Service Pack: 6.5.20

core.wcm.components: 2.23.4

Instances Affected: Author and Publish

We noticed that our ui.content and ui.apps packages would sometimes not automatically install themselves through our normal pipeline and we had to install them after a code build manually. 

 

We were able to identify this was only occurring when the core.wcm.components packages appeared to no longer have the "Last installed" date and last installed by username listed. The functionality of the core components appears unaffected and ui.apps and ui.content could be manually installed without an issue, so we don't think the package is truly uninstalled but rather it is not recognized by the ui.content and ui.apps packages when they are attempting to install.

Initially, we had older versions of the core.wcm.components in the package manager, which would install over 2.23.4 and we thought that was causing the uninstall issue. We removed all old versions of the core.wcm.components and are still seeing the same issue. 

We have been checking if the core.wcm.components need to be reinstalled before we deploy to an environment. If we click "reinstall" then the packages appear normal again and the ui.content and ui.apps packages will install normally on a build. We have never seen the core packages move from a normal state to the weird state. Sometimes they will stay installed for a week, other times they shows as uninstalled a few hours after the reinstall was triggered.

Any guidence or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

How are you installing the core component package currently ?
This probably is just some versioning issue. Whenever you try to install a lower version package then the one which is already installed on your instance by embedding the package in your all/pom.xml, it will not install it.
So, my guess is you might have a higher version of core component package installed on your instance, and some lower version embedded in your project which might be causing this issue. 

[b-lager]

We define the core component version in our pom.xml in the project's base directory.

<core.wcm.components.version>2.23.4</core.wcm.components.version>

I also thought this could have been the issue, but we have cleared out all other versions of core.wcm.components from the instances and are experiencing the same behavior.

Note that the version we upgraded from was 2.21.2 which is lower than our current version (2.23.4)

[h_kataria]

Can you paste relevant portions of your pom, where you have embedded the core components or basically wherever there is any reference of core components in your pom. 
You can also do test install for your packages to check for any errors which might be coming.

[b-lager]

Yes, here are the pom.xml snippets

I am working on getting a build run and will add another response once I do that

[b-lager]

These logs are from an attempt to build the project when the core.wcm.components packages are in the odd state

I dont see anything wrong with the pom files. Even in the installation logs, I see that core component package was not touched and 2.9.15 version of your package was deleted and new one 2.9.16 was installed.

 So, problem possibly lies elsewhere. You can check if someone is manually installing anything on the environment or if this is a multi tenant solution then some other solution's packages causing conflicts.

I have not been able to identify any other parties manually installing anything on the environment. This is not a multi-tenant solution, so there should not be any conflicts there. I am continuing to look into the issue, but have not identified any fixes yet.
