InvalidNodeRefException of a node already deleted

ngiolet — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 12:02:47 GMT

I have developed a Java Web application which use Alfresco APIs for menaging content.Assuming that the application use Alfresco database I have the following problem.When I create a new document from the application which I developed, the document itself is correctly founded after login in Alfresco.

Hi ,

I guess you are not creating the document in the correct way,
Can you publish hyour code for creating the node.

Thanks,

There's a steady effort going on to decouple the lucene transactions from the rest of the alfresco transaction since it damages performance and scaleability. However this has the consequence that for a short time you can find a node in lucene that has been deleted in the DB.

You can of course ignore this node and this is what should happen with the "Invalid Node Exception".

If you have a repeatable test case (in alfresco code rather than your code) then please raise it in JIRA.

mrogers:

We are having a similar problem with the Lucene returning nodes that have been deleted using NodeService's deleteNode method.

Our scenario:
Transaction 1 creates a temporary node and makes an additional association(s) (using createAssociation) to a third node (or possibly several other nodes).
Transaction 2 makes changes to child nodes of the third node, removes the additional association created in transaction 1 and determines if the temporary node can be deleted by determining if any of the additional associations still exist. If the temporary node can be deleted, it is at the end of transaction 2.

Now after the temporary node has been deleted, it still is returned by Lucene queries and when our code attempts to retrieve properties from the node an InvalidNodeRefException is thrown.

Since the application has the potential to create several thousand of these temporary nodes per day, how can we exclude these from being included in Lucene indexes or how can we force Lucene to recognize the node no longer exists?

We are using community edition 3.4.c

You don't say where your transaction boundaries are with regard to reading the deleted node.

If you are still in the same transaction that does the delete then lucene will still find it because the delete has not yet been committed, however it will not make sense to try and read the properties, the node service will detect that you are trying to read a deleted node. If you are in the next transaction (T3) then there may be a small window while the indexer does its stuff.

The stack trace would give some information about what is going on.

The query that is returning the references to invalid nodes is in a third transaction. It has been three days since I deleted the node and it still appears in the query results. Something isn't working correctly.

Any ideas?

Re: InvalidNodeRefException of a node already deleted

We are seeing the same behavior on two different Alfresco systems. We can't afford to do a "full" index every time we see the problem.

Weird thing is that the Node Browser returns the correct UUID and the Lucene API calls do not.
