Error types
| Category | System message | Possible reason |
| Connection | Connectivity problems to the service or network issues, try to reindex again, or contact the support if the problem persists. |
|
| Authentication | Authentication failed while connecting to the service, try to reindex again, or contact the support if the problem persists. | Search and Reporting Service (SRS) does not accept the JSON Web Token (JWT) that Pega Platform provides. |
| Database | Failed to read instance data from Pega database, please contact support. |
|
| Storage | The service reported a problem while indexing the data, please collect the logs and contact the support. | SRS encounters issues while indexing data. You can view the details in broken queue items. This type of issue requires an investigation by the SRS team. |
| Indexed data | Some instances could not be indexed: instance too large, or data not indexable. Consider excluding problematic classes or properties from Relevant Records and/or Custom Search Properties and reindex again. |
|
| Classdef | Bad class definition detected: incorrectly imported application or corrupted database structure. Please fix the issues and try to reindex again. | The indexer cannot read class definitions from the database, and so data indexing is not possible. The root cause is outside of the indexer. |
| Data model | Data model mismatch detected. Check if the most recent data model is published and try to reindex again. | Indicates conflicts between the existing property mappings and newly indexed data. This error triggers the PEGA0124 alert. |
