Sitecore issue: Could not get pipeline: listManage

Question

I have found following error message in log file:

ManagedPoolThread #16 11:21:54 INFO Job started: Sitecore.ListManagement.Analytics.UnlockContactListsAgent ManagedPoolThread #16 11:21:54 ERROR Exception Exception: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException Message: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. Source: mscorlib

   at (Object , Object[] )
   at Sitecore.Pipelines.CorePipeline.Run(PipelineArgs args)
   at Sitecore.Jobs.Job.ThreadEntry(Object state)

Nested Exception

Exception: System.InvalidOperationException Message: Could not get pipeline: listManagement.getLockedLists (domain: )

Source: Sitecore.Kernel at Sitecore.Pipelines.CorePipeline.Run(String pipelineName, PipelineArgs args, String pipelineDomain, Boolean failIfNotExists) at Sitecore.ListManagement.ContentSearch.PipelineBasedContactListStore2.GetLockedListIds() at Sitecore.ListManagement.ListManager2.GetLockedLists() at Sitecore.ListManagement.Analytics.UnlockContactListsAgent.Execute()

It is written in the log file every minute. Can't figure out how to fix this issue.

Any help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

listManagement.getLockedLists pipeline is defined in App_Config\Include\ListManagement\Sitecore.ListManagement.config file.

You should check if this file exists in your local Sitecore instance.

If not, check clean Sitecore instance which uses same version and copy this file from there.

Answer 2

This kind of problems appear when you make an upgrade of Sitecore version or when you start a new project and copy dlls from other version of Sitecore.

For example you start a new Sitecore project 8.1, and you install in Inetpub a clean version of 8.1. But on source of the project you have dll from older version of sitecore (Sitecore 8.0 for example).

When are you doing a new build you copy old dlls to inetpub but the config files are from Sitecore 8.1. And in this way is a mismatch between dll-s and config files.
