Create Page Option appears to be null and not available in AEM

[Mohan_Kumar_Iya]

Hi ! , After creating components and templates in CRX ,I couldn't create a page with newly updated template, Since the "Create Page" option isn't available [ Sites -> Create -> "Create Page" ]

I've installed AEM twice and the issue persists, Kindly help ! :)

I'm not familiar with the newer projects interface, but I've experienced a similar issue with the older Site Admin (/siteadmin).

The issue that I've experienced seems to occur if any piece of content (at least top-level content, possibly even nested content) becomes "corrupt", by missing it's jcr:content child node.  If this is the same problem, you should be able to explore the repository with CRXDElite (/crx/de/index.jsp#/content) and either add the missing jcr:content nodes, or delete any content nodes that are missing their jcr:content child node.

Happy to help.  

I've seen several other individuals trip over this before as well.  I'm not sure how it is that the problem is so common, as it seems to require that a user delete/renames a node that they should not, but it does seem to happen alarmingly frequently.  I'd love to see Adobe make the Projects and Site Admin interfaces more durable, so they don't just fail silently under these conditions.
