Solution Info:

One thing we were sure that this is something to do with master DB only. So, we started looking at config file’s under App_Config folder and here’s our HERO — Sitecore.Buckets.config:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
<databases>
      <database id="master" singleInstance="true" type="Sitecore.Data.Database, Sitecore.Kernel">
        <Engines.DataEngine.Commands.AddFromTemplatePrototype>
          <obj type="Sitecore.Buckets.Commands.AddFromTemplateCommand, Sitecore.Buckets" />
        </Engines.DataEngine.Commands.AddFromTemplatePrototype>
      </database>
      <database id="web" singleInstance="true" type="Sitecore.Data.Database, Sitecore.Kernel">
        <Engines.DataEngine.Commands.AddFromTemplatePrototype>
          <obj type="Sitecore.Buckets.Commands.AddFromTemplateCommand, Sitecore.Buckets" />
        </Engines.DataEngine.Commands.AddFromTemplatePrototype>
      </database>
    </databases>
    <events>
So, we commented out master DB’s Configuration and here’s how it looks like:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
<databases>
<!--<database id="master" singleInstance="true" type="Sitecore.Data.Database, Sitecore.Kernel">
<Engines.DataEngine.Commands.AddFromTemplatePrototype>
<obj type="Sitecore.Buckets.Commands.AddFromTemplateCommand, Sitecore.Buckets" />
</Engines.DataEngine.Commands.AddFromTemplatePrototype>
</database>-->
<database id="web" singleInstance="true" type="Sitecore.Data.Database, Sitecore.Kernel">
<Engines.DataEngine.Commands.AddFromTemplatePrototype>
<obj type="Sitecore.Buckets.Commands.AddFromTemplateCommand, Sitecore.Buckets" />
</Engines.DataEngine.Commands.AddFromTemplatePrototype>
</database>
</databases>
And Yes, It resolved our error,
