Steps to Reproduce

There is no specific use case to replicate this behavior.

Root Cause

In the Rule-Utility-Libraries, the cached lists and rules were inconsistent or stale. The server startup logs indicate that in the Rule-Utility-Libraries, the cached lists and rules were not recompiled. The libraries and cached rules will be re-assembled only if the “PegaRULES extract marker” file has been successfully deleted. However, in this case it was evidently not. 

Resolution

Delete the ExtractMarker.txt file from the PegaTemp directory and restart the server.
