Index was not found - sitecore

I am getting error sometimes on CD environment, that The Index "mycustom_web_index" was not found, there is no clear scenario for this, and it is only happens on distributed environment (CM and CD).
I am using solr, and Sitecore 8.1 Update 2.
any idea about this error ?
Updates :
Note :The main reason that cause this issue because HostingEnvironment environment is shutdown, below is the details
Detailed explanation of the issue cause from sitecore support:
Sitecore's ShutdownMonitor (object that is managed by the hosting environment) is registered during Sitecore's initialization.
A request is started.
An application pool and its associated worker processes are being shut down by IIS, for example after a config change. IIS notifies the ASP.NET runtime that the application is shutting down and the worker process for the application pool stops listening for new requests.
Hosting environment stops registered objects, including ShutdownMonitor which disposes all search indexes.
Request reaches a place in code where search indexes are accessed. As search indexes were already disposed, the request fails to retrieve results from the search index.

this error is appearing when you try to access an index but it doesn't exist. please check in your index manager if you have the index.
If the index is configured correctly you will see like in the picture.
If not you need to check index configuration.

CoRegisterClassObject returns error (session 0?)

A customer is running one of our programs, usually run as a service, as an application. The customer is getting the following error on CoRegisterClassObject():
The class is configured to run as a security id different from the caller.
It looks like some type of session 0 error, but why should CoRegisterClassObject() care about session 0? COM should allow both services (session 0) and apps (session > 0) and not care what registers what, shouldn't it?
Also, I don't like the fact that it's not in the list of errors returnable by CoRegisterClassObject(), as per the Microsoft doc webpage.
The error code in question is CO_E_WRONG_SERVER_IDENTITY (0x80004015).
Per this page:
COM security frequently asked questions
Q6 Why does CoRegisterClassObject return CO_E_WRONG_SERVER_IDENTITY? When launching my ATL 1.1 server service as an .exe file, I receive CO_E_WRONG_SERVER_IDENTITY from CoRegisterClassObject. (The class is configured to run as a security ID different from the caller.) This seems to occur whether I skip the CoInitializeSecurity or not. It fails running as a service or as an .exe file.
A. Many services are debugged by running them as console applications in the interactive user identity. Because the service is already registered to run in a different identity (configurable by the Services control panel applet), OLE fails the CoRegisterClassObject and RunningObjectTable::Register(ROTFLAGS_ALLOWANYCLIENT) calls by returning CO_E_WRONG_SERVER_IDENTITY to enforce security and to prevent malicious servers from spoofing the server. To debug by running in the interactive user's identity, make the following changes in the server's registry entries to prevent these failures:
• To prevent CoRegisterClassObject failure, remove the following named value:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\APPID\{0bf52b15-8cab-11cf-8572-00aa00c006cf}]
"LocalService"="HelloOleServerService"
• To prevent a IRunningObjectTable::Register(ROTFLAGS_ALLOWANYCLIENT) failure, follow these steps:
Remove the following named value:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\APPID\{0bf52b15-8cab-11cf-8572-00aa00c006cf}]
"LocalService"="HelloOleServerService"
Then add the following named value:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\APPID\{0bf52b15-8cab-11cf-8572-00aa00c006cf}]
"RunAs"="Interactive User"
You muist restore the modified registry entries after debugging.
I am assuming you would have to replace {0bf52b15-8cab-11cf-8572-00aa00c006cf} with your COM object's actual CLSID instead.

One or more services have started or stopped unexpectedly SPTimerService (SPTimerV4)

I have stop and restart services(Sharepoint Administration & Sharepoint Timer Service)
I cleaned the Configuration Cache by using mentioned steps.
Summary of the steps to clear the timer job:
Stop SharePoint Timer service on all servers in the farm.
Browse to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\SharePoint\Config{GUID} where the {GUID} folder contains a bunch of XML files and NOT the files with a “.PERSITEDFILE” extension.
Delete all the XML files
Update the contents of the Cache.ini file to just say “1” (without quotes).
Restart the SharePoint Timer service on each server
Reanalyze the issue in Health Analyzer
Does anyone know why this keeps occurring and how I can stop it?
First of all try and check your ULS Logs and see if there is any error that arise.
Secondly try and maybe check the event viewer on your SharePoint server to see if any errors are shown and make sure you have enough disk space available.
and also you might want to check this :Clearing Timer Services
Let me know if you see any error post it here.
hope it helps.
Yotam.

Build never starts on TFS2012

I'm attempting to set up some build controllers and agents in our TFS infrastructure. Our TFS server is setup as a build controller, and I have a few build agents set up as well.
When I queue a new build on my system, all appears to be well. No error messages appear, and the build appears in the queue on my system. However, that's all that ever happens. When I go to the page for the build in Visual Studio, it states it's been "Running for 0 seconds". Looking at the admin console on our TFS server, the controller states it's "Ready", but nothing more. All the agents are similarly listed as 'Ready'.
I'm not aware of any logs I can use to diagnose this issue. I've set the Logging Verbosity to 'Diagnostic', but options in the Diagnostics dropdown are greyed out. The activity is completely blank, as well.
Looking in the database on the build controller, the dbo.tbl_BuildController table does list the build. What I find odd, though, is the StartTime is NULL. If I stop the build in VS, the start time and the end time are set to the same thing in the database.
So, I know that the build is registering with the build controller, and that there's not a communication issue; the build just never starts, and never give an error. How can I resolve this? (or, at least get an error that I can chase down).
EDIT: The issue appears to be related to the TFS server. Here's what I uncovered in the event log:
WebHost failed to process a request.

I would start looking in the Event Log.
Control Panel -> Administrative Tools
Event Viewer
I am assuming that there will be some sort or error appearing in there. If your build agents are on a different machine, make sure you look in the event log there too.
Update from original posters comments
There was an exception in the Event Log which pointed us to here: TFS2012 Build Service offline
Go check the security settings of the user that is used for the build service properties. I've had almost the same issue and it was because I changed some security settings for that specific user where he suddenly could not build anymore.
To find the user:
Go to your TFS server
Open Team Foundation Server Administration Console
Open Build Configuration
Open Properties of the Build Service
This worked for me, password of the user account which was used to access TFS hosted on different Server expired.
Password reset fixed it for me.
The build controller and agent must run the same version of Team Foundation Build.
(Buid Service version is something like v4.0 or v4.1 and it is different from tfs product version which is some thing like 11.0.50727.1)
So, if the build Agent and controller are deployed in different machines, check the build service version on both machines. it must be the same.
TFS prevents to assign a build agent to a build controller with different build service version. However, you are allowed to upgrade one of the build machines to a different version (for example visual studio update 2) without detaching the controller and agent
in some cases the build service version stay unchanged (for example inspite of upgrading to update 2 the version stay v4.0)
in this situation if you want to apply the new version of build service
in tfs 2012 or 2013 to check the build service version:
Go to Build Machine
Open Team Foundation Server Administration Console
Open Build Configuration
Open Build Service properties (click on the properties link next to the unregister
link)
"Listen for build agent communication on" text box
to apply change of the build service version
stop the service
Click the "Change" button
set a different port number
reset the previous port number
immediately the build service version will change from v4.0 to v4.1

Setting Tomcat 7 sessionid and value to be identified via Hardware Load Balancing for session affinity

Although easily done from my perspective with IIS, I'm a total noob to Tomcat and have no idea how to set static values for cookie contents. Yes I've read the security implications and eventually will access via SSL so I'm not concerned. Plus I've read the Servlet 3.0 spec about not changing the value and I accept that.
In IIS I would simply set a HTTP Header named Set-Cookie with an arbitrary setting of WebServerSID and a value of 1001.
Then in the load balancer VIP containing this group of real servers, set the value WebServerSID at the VIP level, and for the first web server a cookie value of 1001 and so one for the remaining machines 1002 for server 2, 1003 for server 3.
This achieves session affinity via cookies until the client closes the browser.
How can this be done with Tomcat 7.0.22?
I see a great deal of configuration changes have occurred between Tomcat 6.x and 7.x with regard to cookies and how they're set up. I've tried the following after extensive research
over the last week.
In web.xml: (this will disable URL rewriting under Tomcat 7.x)
<tracking-mode>COOKIE</tracking-mode> under the default session element
In context.xml: (cookies is true by default but I was explicit as I can't get it working)
cookies=true
sessionCookiePath=/
sessionCookieName=WebServerSID
sessionCookieName=1001
I have 2 entries in context.xml for sessionCookieName because the equivalent commands from Tomcat 6.x look like they've been merged into 1.
See http://tomcat.apache.org/migration-7.html#Tomcat_7.0.x_configuration_file_differences
Extract:
org.apache.catalina.SESSION_COOKIE_NAME system property: This has been removed. An equivalent effect can be obtained by configuring the sessionCookieName attribute for the global context.xml (in CATALINA_BASE/conf/context.xml).
org.apache.catalina.SESSION_PARAMETER_NAME system property: This has been removed. An equivalent effect can be obtained by configuring the sessionCookieName attribute for the global context.xml (in CATALINA_BASE/conf/context.xml).
If this is not right then I simply do not understand the syntax that is required and I cannot find anywhere that will simply spell it out in plain black and white.
Under Tomcat 6.x, I would have used Java Options in the config like:
-Dorg.apache.catalina.SESSION_COOKIE_NAME=WebServerSID
-Dorg.apache.catalina.SESSION_PARAMETER_NAME=1001
The application I'm using does not have any of these values set elsewhere so it's not the application.
All these settings are in context/web/server.xml files at the Catalina base
At the end of the day what I need to see in the response headers under Set-Cookies: (as seen using Fiddler) is:
WebServerSID=1001
NOT
JSESSIONID=as8sd9787ksjds9d8sdjks89s898
thanks in advance
regards
The best you can do purely with configuration is to set the jvmRoute attribute of the Engine which will add the constant value to the end of the session ID. Most load-balancers can handle that. It would look like:
JSESSIONID=as8sd9787ksjds9d8sdjks89s898.route1
If that isn't good enough and you need WebServerSID=1001 you'll have to write a ServletFilter and configure that to add the header on every response.

buildforge problem

when i tried to run the job i am getting the error saying that
No server could be found matching all conditions
please any one help me on this
In buildforge, the job is assigned to a selector.
The selector can be thought of as a pointer to an object that can represent either the name of a server, or a set of servers that matches a set of criteria.
When the job executes, the selector for that step attempts to find the server based on the criteria defined in the selector conditions. If it can't find a server that matches the selection conditions, you get the posted error message.
In real life, this error usually indicates the following:
1. The agent on the server is dead, or the server is down. Run bfservertest (or test connection in the buildforge web UI) to see if the agent is functioning. Visit the machine remotely or in person to verify that the server is up. Try restarting the agent service if machine is up and connection test fails.
2. The selector is pointing to a non-existent server because you misspelled the server name.
3. You have conditions defined in the selector that unintentionally exclude all servers from being used.
