InvalidCacheResourceReference
Error Message
Deployment of the API proxy through either the Apigee UI or API fails with this error message:
Error Deploying Revision revision_number to environment Invalid cache resource reference [cache_resource] in Step definition [invalidate_cache_policy_name]. Context Revision:[revision_number];APIProxy:[apiproxy_name];Organization:[organization];Environment:[environment]
Example Error Message
Error Deploying Revision 2 to test
Invalid cache resource reference tokencache in Step definition InvalidateCache-Token. Context Revision:2;APIProxy:TestCache;Organization:kkalckstein-eval;Environment:test
Example Error Screenshot
Cause
This error occurs if the <CacheResource>
element in the InvalidateCache policy is set to a name that does not exist in the environment where the API proxy is being deployed.
Diagnosis
Identify the InvalidateCache policy name, the invalid cache used in
<CacheResource>
element of the InvalidateCache policy, and the environment where the error occurred. You can find all these items in the error message. For example, in the following error, the InvalidateCache policy name isInvalidateCache-Token
, the name of the invalid cache istokencache
, and the environment name istest
.Invalid cache resource reference tokencache in Step definition InvalidateCache-Token. Context Revision:2;APIProxy:TestCache;Organization:kkalckstein-eval;Environment:test
Examine the failed InvalidateCache policy XML and verify if the cache name specified for the
<CacheResource>
element matches with the error message.In this example, the cache name specified in the
<CacheResource>
element istokencache
:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <InvalidateCache async="false" continueOnError="false" enabled="true" name="InvalidateCache-Token"> <DisplayName>InvalidateCache-Token</DisplayName> <Properties/> <CacheKey> <Prefix/> <KeyFragment ref=""/> </CacheKey> <CacheResource>tokencache</CacheResource> <Scope>Exclusive</Scope> <CacheContext> <APIProxyName/> <ProxyName>default</ProxyName> <TargetName>default</TargetName> </CacheContext> <PurgeChildEntries>false</PurgeChildEntries> </InvalidateCache>
Verify if the cache (determined in step #1) has been defined in the specific environment (identified in step #1).
In the Apigee UI, navigate to ADMIN > Environment > test and check if the cache exists in the Caches tab of Environment Configuration. If the cache does not exist, then that's the cause of the error.
For example, notice in the screenshot below that the cache named
tokencache
does not exist.Because the cache named
tokencache
is not defined in thetest
environment, you get the error:Invalid cache resource reference tokencache in Step definition InvalidateCache-Token. Context Revision:2;APIProxy:TestCache;Organization:kkalckstein-eval;Environment:test
Resolution
Ensure that the cache specified in the <CacheResource>
element of InvalidateCache policy has been created in the environment where you want to deploy the API proxy.
CacheNotFound
Error Message
Deployment of the API proxy through either the Apigee UI or API results in an error message like this, and the deployment status of the API Proxy is marked as partially deployed:
Error: Cache : cache_resource, not found in organization : organization__environment.
Example Error Message
Error Cache : configCache, not found in organization : kkalckstein-eval__test
Cause
This error occurs if the specific cache mentioned in the error message has not been created on a specific Message Processor component. A Message Processor is an internal component that processes the flow of API traffic through Apigee.
Resolution
