I faced the issue above when I upgraded from Sitecore 8.1 update 3 to Sitecore 8.2 update 1.
I only got this exception where I use configuration factory for pipeline because of Dependency Injection. Like the following:
| <configuration xmlns:patch="http://www.sitecore.net/xmlconfig/"> | |
| <sitecore> | |
| <pipelines> | |
| <httpRequestBegin> | |
| <processor patch:before="*[@type='Sitecore.Pipelines.HttpRequest.QueryStringResolver, Sitecore.Kernel']" | |
| type="1" | |
| factory="ContainerFactory" | |
| ref="MyProject.MyPageResolver, MyProject"/> | |
| </httpRequestBegin> | |
| </pipelines> | |
| </sitecore> | |
| </configuration> |
Then I got the exception “No group node for sub node: httpRequestBegin”. After I digged into the new Sitecore.Kernel I found that Sitecore wants a group ancestor for the processor. That did not really help me because if I put the group node above a processor then Sitecore does not know that it is a processor.
So I deciced to report this is a bug and they provided me an answer that they will provide a hotfix package for this issue. The reference number is 142817.
UPDATE:
We got the hotfix from Sitecore support. They had to do changes in Sitecore.Kernel assembly. The fix is only working for Sitecore 8.2 update 1 that’s why I don’t want to share here. Good news that they are going to include this fix in Sitecore 8.2 update 3.
