Unable to publish item through code

Question

I'm using Sitecore 8.2 and trying to publish an item to 'web' like this:

public static PublishResult PublishItem(string sourceItemPath, Language targetItemLanguage, string targetDatabaseName, bool publishSubItems) { PublishResult publishResult = null; Item sourceItem = Databases.masterDb.GetItem(sourceItemPath, targetItemLanguage); if (sourceItem != null) { Database targetDatabase = GetDatabase(targetDatabaseName); if (targetDatabase != null) { using (new SecurityDisabler()) { Sitecore.Publishing.PublishOptions publishOptions = new Sitecore.Publishing.PublishOptions(Databases.masterDb, targetDatabase, Sitecore.Publishing.PublishMode.SingleItem, sourceItem.Language, System.DateTime.Now); if (publishOptions != null) { publishOptions.UserName = Sitecore.Context.User.Name; ; Sitecore.Publishing.Publisher publisher = new Sitecore.Publishing.Publisher(publishOptions); if (publisher != null) { publisher.Options.RootItem = sourceItem; publisher.Options.Deep = publishSubItems; publishResult = publisher.PublishWithResult(); ///exception here sourceItem.Publishing.ClearPublishingCache(); } } } } } return publishResult; }

The error is:

One or more exceptions occurred while processing the subscribers to the 'publish:end' event.

When published manually, the item gets published.
Do we need to modify any config setting, when publishing items programmatically.

UPDATE: I changed the publishing statement to this & it worked:

Sitecore.Handle handle = PublishManager.PublishItem(sourceItem, new[] { targetDatabase }, new[] { targetItemLanguage }, publishSubItems, true);

But I would like to get the published statistics like items created/updated/skipped.

Any custom pipelines on the publish:end event , Please check from showconfig.aspx and search for the publish:end section — Abhay Dhar

@AbhayDhar No custom pipelines as I see. This is a fresh instance. — sukesh

No. Just Vanilla Sitecore. Please also check my update in the post — sukesh

Your code works for me (not much help, I know :) ) but if there is something in the publish:end event listener that is throwing the error then you could try using an EventDisabler in your code as well as the SecurityDisabler you have;

using (new SecurityDisabler()) using (new EventDisabler()) { // your code }

Not sure that will stop that event happening though. There is a method in the Publisher class called PerformPublishWithResult that doesn't instigate the publish events however it is protected so you'll need your own publisher class to use it.

public class MyPublisher : Sitecore.Publishing.Publisher { public MyPublisher(PublishOptions options) : base(options) { } public MyPublisher(PublishOptions options, IEnumerable<Language> languages) : base(options, languages) { } public override PublishResult PublishWithResult() { object publishLock = GetPublishLock(); lock (publishLock) { try { using (new SecurityDisabler()) { AssertState(); PublishResult result = PerformPublishWithResult(); UpdateLastPublish(); return result; } } catch (Exception ex) { NotifyFailure(ex); throw; } } } }

Now use MyPublisher instead;

MyPublisher publisher = new MyPublisher(publishOptions); if (publisher != null) { publisher.Options.RootItem = sourceItem; publisher.Options.Deep = publishSubItems; publishResult = publisher.PublishWithResult(); sourceItem.Publishing.ClearPublishingCache(); }

The PublishWithResult method on MyPublisher does what the built-in version does only without raising the publish events.
