So I know this used to be a common problem in M1.x. However, I only recently noticed this in our M2.1.3 environment.

How can I flush/wipe the Category flat data index and rebuild from scratch?

  • If its not production then try to truncate (take a backup before doing so) the category flat table and start the indexing again. Apr 7, 2017 at 18:29
  • This is happening in a production environment. However, I can put it in maintenance mode on a slow moment, and do it then. Apr 7, 2017 at 23:01

It normally happens when the memory limit is few, so increase on your .htaccess or NGINX config.

Run this command on your MySQL:

update indexer_state set status = 'invalid' where status != 'valid';

On you terminal run:

alias mage="php -d memory_limit=-1 -f bin/magento"
mage indexer:reindex

You can also check mview_state table and set status to idle on that indexer then run it from cli with

php bin/magento indexer:reindex catalog_category_flat

If it break you should see some stack trace in the console

  • So interestingly enough, they are all idle, however they are all, also set to disable for mode. Which is odd. Apr 7, 2017 at 23:00
