SearchPhaseExecutionException after updating to EPiServer.Find 12

After updating from EPiServer.Find 11.0.0.3701 to 12.3.2.0 I'm getting an error when searching for a page type:

EPiServer.Find.ServiceException: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.

ContactUsPageViewModel.cs:

var query = SearchClient.Instance.Search()
		.FilterForVisitor()
		.Filter(page => page.CompanyId.Match(companyIdFromUrl))
		.OrderBy(p => p.Name);

return FilterForVisitorExtension.FilterOnType(FindHelper.GetAllPages(query)
		.Where(s => s.CheckPublishedStatus(PagePublishedStatus.Published))).ToList(); // Line 295

FindHelper.cs:

public static IEnumerable GetAllPages(ITypeSearch query) where T : IContentData
		{
			query = query.Take(1000);

			var batch = query.GetContentResult(); // Line 20, where the exception is thrown
			foreach (var page in batch)
			{
				yield return page;
			}

			var totalNumberOfPages = batch.TotalMatching;

			var nextBatchFrom = 1000;
			while (nextBatchFrom < totalNumberOfPages)
			{
				batch = query.Skip(nextBatchFrom).GetContentResult();
				foreach (var page in batch)
				{
					yield return page;
				}
				nextBatchFrom += 1000;
			}
		}

Another odd thing is that this error doesn't happen with my local developer Find index, only in our stage environment.

Did you reindex your staging index after updating Find?

Hi Per! Yes, I first ran a custom job which clears the index like this:

var client = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<IClient>();
client.Delete<object>(x => x.GetType().Name.Exists() | !x.GetType().Name.Exists());

After which I ran the built-in job "EPiServer Find Content Indexing Job".

<p>There is a "clear index" button in the Find UI, you know :-) Also, the standard indexing job will delete all old IContent that has not been updated.</p> <p>What is going on at "FilterForVisitorExtension.cs:line 11"?</p> <p>It looks a bit like you are both doing FilterForVisitor on the query, and then afterwards as well. That should not be necessary.</p> <p></p>

Ah ok, but I assume the job I ran does the same as the "clear index" button?

FilterForVisitorExtension.cs looks like this:

public static IEnumerable<T> FilterOnType<T>(IEnumerable<IContent> collection) where T : IContent
{
	return EPiServer.Filters.FilterForVisitor.Filter(collection).OfType<T>(); // Line 11
}

<p>Yes you are right, the FilterForVisitor filtering is happening twice. I&nbsp;did however try removing the .FilterForVisitor() in the query but the (same) error still occurs.</p>

The code looks correct to me. Although you do not need to to run the extra FilterForVisitor after the query has been run.

Looks like the problem is "ElasticSearchIllegalArgumentException[Sorting on string type field does not support missing parameter]", which does not sound right as "name" should never be empty, and even if it was, that should not really be a problem.

Now that I try to use the "clear index" button instead of the custom job I get an error message saying:

Unable to load /episerver/Find/proxy/_clear?clear_index=true&clear_stats=false status: 400

<p>It should indeed never be empty as it's not allowed. I realized now that the query in the OP was missing a&nbsp;&lt;ContactOfficePage&gt;, I added that now.</p>

Perhaps there is something wrong with the index. Could you try the dev index in your staging environment? If there is something wrong with the index, I suggest you contact operations@episerver.com

Unfortunately I can't use my dev index in the staging environment as the staging environment is restricted network-wise (getting error message "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it" when trying). Is there any way for me to clear the index completely if I log onto the index server? As you're saying, the index might be corrupted somehow, so would be excellent if I can manually clear it by deleting files/folders on the server where the index is located.
