Answer 1

To reindex in Magento 2, go to root directory of Magento using cli and run this command.

php bin/magento indexer:reindex

Answer 2

1. Magento 2 relies on cron jobs to be ran every minute. First open up crontab for username that has write permissions for magento root folder (suppose it is _www (on mac osx it is), basically it is the user your php-fpm or httpd running under):

   crontab -u _www -e
   

   then add the following lines there:

   * * * * * /usr/bin/php  /path_to_magento_root/bin/magento setup:cron:run
   * * * * * /usr/bin/php  /path_to_magento_root/bin/magento cron:run
   * * * * * /usr/bin/php  /path_to_magento_root/update/cron.php
   

   make sure you put the correct path to php executable, check it with:

   which php
   

2. check vendor/magento/framework/ObjectManager/Factory/AbstractFactory.php for syntax errors:

   php -l vendor/magento/framework/ObjectManager/Factory/AbstractFactory.php
   

   looks like you have one at line 93. (did you edit this file?)

Answer 3

Looks like you edit file E:\wamp\www\Magentosample\vendor\ma gento\framework\ObjectManager\Factory\AbstractFactory.php. And it have syntax error... so try revert all changes, for example by remove vendor folder and run composer install
