title: "cache.deleteAll() doesn't rebuild the page-tree index — a freshly-posted entry 404s when opened for editing"

problem_type: integration_issue
|

component: plugin
|
||||
severity: high
|
||||
symptoms:
|
||||
- "A just-posted journal entry is written to disk but the API 404s on it (GET /api/v1/pages{route})"
|
||||
- "Opening the entry you just created for editing shows 'This entry no longer exists — it may have been deleted'"
|
||||
- "The entry DOES appear in the trip feed, but the edit prefill fetch can't find it until the next unrelated cache bump"
|
||||
- "Intermittent — only bites when the page-tree index survives the create"

# `cache.deleteAll()` doesn't rebuild the page-tree index
|
||||
|
||||
## Context — this is BUG-001 Part 2
|
||||
|
||||
[BUG-001](../../working/bugs-and-fixes.md) ("new entry not visible after form
|
||||
submission") was fixed by wiring `$this->grav['cache']->deleteAll()` into the
|
||||
`cache-on-save` plugin's `onFormProcessed` hook. That made new entries appear in
|
||||
the trip feed immediately. It was **not the whole story**: `deleteAll()` drops
|
||||
the Doctrine store (rendered-page cache, feed HTML, etc.) but does **not** force
|
||||
Grav to rebuild its **regular-pages index**.
|
||||
|
||||
The gap only surfaced once the shared `/post` form gained an **edit mode**
|
||||
(`?edit=<route>`), whose prefill does `GET /api/v1/pages{route}`. On a fresh
|
||||
create that request would 404 — so the owner opening the entry they had *just*
|
||||
posted saw "This entry no longer exists."
|
||||
|
||||
## Root cause
|
||||
|
||||
Grav's regular-pages index is keyed on:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
md5(dirs + folderHash + config->checksum() + lang) // Pages::buildRegularPages
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
With `cache.check.method: folder` (our setting), the `folderHash` component does
|
||||
not necessarily change when a new child folder is added inside an existing
|
||||
tree — so the **index key stays the same** and the stale index (missing the new
|
||||
entry) is reused. `deleteAll()` clears cache *stores* but does not change any of
|
||||
the inputs to that key, so the tree is not rebuilt. The new page is on disk and
|
||||
in the feed (which re-reads children), but the **API lookup by route** resolves
|
||||
through the cached index and 404s.
|
||||
|
||||
## Fix
|
||||
|
||||
Add a second invalidation step alongside `deleteAll()`:
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
use Grav\Common\Cache;
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
$this->grav['cache']->deleteAll();
|
||||
Cache::invalidateCache(); // touch(system.yaml) → bumps config->checksum()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`Cache::invalidateCache()` is lightweight and idempotent — it `touch()`es
|
||||
`system.yaml`, calls `clearstatcache()` and `opcache_reset()` (verified in Grav
|
||||
core `Cache.php`). Touching `system.yaml` bumps `config->checksum()`, which
|
||||
changes the index key, so the tree rebuilds on the next request and the new
|
||||
entry becomes resolvable by route.
|
||||
|
||||
### Latch it — the hook fires 4× per submit
|
||||
|
||||
`onFormProcessed` fires once per `process:` action, and `post-form.md` has four
|
||||
(`add_page`, `upload`, `message`, `reset`). Without a guard the
|
||||
`deleteAll()` + `invalidateCache()` pair runs four times per post (a full store
|
||||
wipe + `system.yaml` touch each time). Gate it with a once-per-request latch
|
||||
(`$cacheInvalidated`), the same pattern already used for photo reconciliation
|
||||
(`$photosReconciled`). See `user/plugins/cache-on-save/cache-on-save.php`.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to verify
|
||||
|
||||
1. Post a new entry via `/post`.
|
||||
2. From the trip feed, click the new card's **Edit** link.
|
||||
3. The form prefills with the entry's title/body — no "no longer exists" banner.
|
||||
|
||||
Regression test: `tests/ui/post/edit-mode.spec.js` **ES1** (create → open the
|
||||
feed card's Edit link → change title + body → Save → assert on disk).
|
||||
|
||||
## Residual coverage gap (tracked, not fixed here)
|
||||
|
||||
`tests/ui/home/home.spec.js` **H1** and `tests/ui/maps/maps.spec.js` **M8**
|
||||
require `site.travelling: true` to exercise the active-trip home feed + home GPX
|
||||
map. The committed local `site.yaml` runs `travelling: false` (owner's testing
|
||||
config, intentionally not committed as `true`), so both specs **skip loudly**
|
||||
with a reason rather than fail misleadingly. They validate whenever the site is
|
||||
in travelling mode. This is a known gap in this environment, not a silent hole —
|
||||
provisioning `travelling: true` in a dedicated test config would close it.
