I keep getting "Homepage could not be loaded" after continuing to work on my project!

PersistentError · March 22, 2020, 7:34am

Hello everyone! I’m somewhat new to Neos and wanted to set it up on my personal (Windows) PC for the first time to get some experience. I have already managed to set it up using the XAMPP Setup guide from the docs.

And after the setup everything works, and I already started editing my project without problems.

However, everytime I leave, and, for example, come back to it the next day (I start apache and mysql in XAMPP, then run ./flow server:run in my project and sometimes empty the cash after that), I get the Setup page in the Neos frontend with the Error “Homepage could not be loaded. Probably you haven’t imported a site yet”. I have a homepage of course, I was already working on the project!

In the backend I currently get this error: “Call to a member function getContext() on null”, though I am not sure if this was the case the last few times too.

I don’t know how to fix this error (I have tried emptying the cache via command and also by deleting the Data/Temporary folder by hand) and every time I got the error I started a new project because I didn’t know what else to do… I’m on project 5 now. Someone please help me!

I hope this is all the information you need to help me, but if there’s anything important I didn’t say, please tell me so!

(Couldn’t find an “edit” button, sorry.)

Some more info:

I have tried ./flow doctrine:migrate, it says there are no migrations
I still have the Neos Demo package installed
In my DB in the table neos_contentrepository_domain_model_nodedata I can see my home-page (path is “/sites/my-packagename”)
./flow site:list shows my site and package name as expected

and I don’t know if it is important, but here are all the installed packages:

"require": {
        "neos/neos": "~5.1.0",
        "neos/site-kickstarter": "~5.1.0",
        "neos/demo": "~6.1",
        "neos/neos-ui": "~5.1",
        "neos/seo": "~3.0",
        "neos/redirecthandler-neosadapter": "~4.0",
        "neos/redirecthandler-databasestorage": "~4.0",
        "neos/redirecthandler-ui": "~2.0",
        "neos/setup": "@dev",
        "neos/neos-setup": "@dev",
        "my/packagename": "@dev"
    },
    "require-dev": {
        "neos/buildessentials": "@dev",
        "mikey179/vfsstream": "^1.6",
        "phpunit/phpunit": "^8.1",
        "symfony/css-selector": "~2.0",
        "neos/behat": "@dev"
    },

System Log says:
20-03-24 19:06:21 5908 WARNING Neos.Neos Couldn’t load the site node for path “/sites/my-packagename” in workspace “live”. This is probably due to a missing baseworkspace for the workspace of the current user.
20-03-24 19:06:21 5908 DEBUG FrontendNodeRoutePartHandler matchValue(): No site node found for request path “”. No specific domain matched.
20-03-24 19:06:21 5908 CRITICAL Exception #1346950755 in line 94 of C:\xampp\htdocs\mySite5\Data\Temporary\Development\Cache\Code\Flow_Object_Classes\Neos_Flow_Mvc_Routing_DynamicRoutePart.php: Homepage could not be loaded. Probably you haven’t imported a site yet

Because of this I entered ./flow workspace:list and got the following result, which seems correct to me:

When I try to publish the live workspace via command I get the same error as in the backend, as described in my original post:

Call to a member function getName() on null

  Type: Error
  File: C:\xampp\htdocs\mySite5\Data\Temporary\Development\Cache\Code\Flow_Object_C
        lasses\Neos_Neos_Command_WorkspaceCommandController.php
  Line: 72

… meaning that $workspace->getBaseWorkspace() returns null.

I hope all or any of this information helps someone to help me, or maybe someone else in the future who happens to stumble across this topic.
