Magento 2 Catalog Cache – How to Fix Image Regeneration Issues

imagemagento2magento2-migration-toolmigrationproduct-images

I'm doing the migration process from Magento 1.9.2.4 to Magento 2.1.6, after migration completed, I move the media folder of M1 to pub/media M2.

Now the problem is some of the images don't generate in the catalog/Cache folder

For example, the below images are going to 404 not found

pub/media/catalog/product/cache/f9c7fbe9b524c081a3ccf800cbd963eb/m/s/msj006c-red_2.jpg
pub/media/catalog/product/cache/75eed2686e01eb22cb4050b2f40ddf97/m/s/msj006c-red_2.jpg
pub/media/catalog/product/cache/f9c7fbe9b524c081a3ccf800cbd963eb/m/s/msj006c-red_2.jpg

I did like simply delete the catalog cache folder and load the page again but still, it goes to a broken image.

My page has 50% of broken images

can share the workaround to fix this issue?

You should try using the image resize command to pre-generate all necessary resizes.

php bin/magento catalog:image:resize

This command gets all the images sizes that have been defined in the theme XML and pregenerates the images in their correct folders.

You can also check the command documentation for more information http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.1/frontend-dev-guide/themes/theme-images.html

Check permissions and ownership of this exact file:

/home/shaffersuiting/public_html/project/pub/media/catalog/product/cache/1/swatch_image/30x20/beff4985b56e3afdbeabfc89641a4582/i/n/inqalab_final_colour_08.jpg

Try deleting it manually and clearing image cache again.

It you can't delete it manually, I presume 2 situation might have caused such behaviour:

you deployed static files with root privilages - so all files in your /pub/ folder have root owner and can't be deleted by the Magento file system owner.
Your web server is missconfigured so the Magento file system owner doesn't have write permissions on these files - in this situation as a quick fix you'd need to give 777 permission to all your files, which is a bad idea overall.

The 1st situation is more likely, so you'd need to run:

sudo chown file_system_owner:file_system_owner /home/shaffersuiting/public_html/project/pub/ -R

Where "file_system_owner" is the owner of Magento root.

You need to set image sizes in view.xml file inside your theme

Code would be like this:

<view xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Config/etc/view.xsd">
    <media>
        <images module="Magento_Catalog">
            <image id="bundled_product_customization_page" type="thumbnail">
                <width>140</width>
                <height>140</height>
            </image>
            <image id="cart_cross_sell_products" type="thumbnail">
                <width>200</width>
                <height>248</height>
            </image>
            <image id="cart_page_product_thumbnail" type="small_image">
                <width>165</width>
                <height>165</height>
            </image>
            ........
        </images>
    </media>
    ......
</view>

Make sure your all images sizes are 1:1 ratio, as your main image proportion is 1:1 in ratio, than after frontend deployment it should work

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
