Cause

When correcting a bug in the December 21, 2018 version of Coveo for Sitecore, code in the Sitecore 8.0 specific CoveoDiagnosticPage.aspx page was not properly removed.

Resolution

The issue is resolved in the June 18, 2019 release of Coveo for Sitecore. You can fix the problem by upgrading to this release.

Workaround

You can delete the excess code from the CoveoDiagnosticPage.aspx page.

  1. Open the <SITECORE_INSTANCE_ROOT>\Website\sitecore modules\Web\Coveo\Admin\CoveoDiagnosticPage.aspx file in a text editor.

  2. Locate and delete the code block below.

    <asp:PlaceHolder ID="SecurityProviderSection" runat="server">
    <asp:Repeater ID="SecurityProvidersDetailsSection" ItemType="Coveo.SearchProvider.Applications.Admin.SecurityDetails.SecurityProviderDetails" runat="server">
        <HeaderTemplate>
            <table cellspacing="0" class="coveo-states published-items">
            <thead>
            <tr>
                <th>Security Provider Name</th>
                <th>Is Expanded Permissions Provider</th>
                <th>State</th>
            </tr>
            </thead>
            <tbody>
        </HeaderTemplate>
        <ItemTemplate>
            <tr>
                <td><%# Item.SecurityProviderName %></td>
                <td>
                    <%# Item.IsExpandedPermissionsProvider ? "Yes." : "No." %>
                    <asp:Label Visible="<%# Item.ShouldUpdateToExpanded %>" runat="server">
                        This instance is still using Sitecore 2 Security Provider. To upgrade, click
                        <a href="https://developers.coveo.com/x/nYQkAg" runat="server">here</a>.
                    </asp:Label>
                </td>
                <td><%# Item.FetchingStatus %></td>
            </tr>
        </ItemTemplate>
        <FooterTemplate>
            </tbody>
            </table>
        </FooterTemplate>
    </asp:Repeater>
