Endeca Workbench EAC admin console disappeared from Workbench for ADMIN user - Endeca Workbench

Problem Statement:  EAC admin console disappeared from Workbench for ADMIN user 

Solution:
 1. Replace the following jar files in the production instance with the ones from your working environment in $ENDECA_TOOLS_CONF/state/sling/_ifcr/startup/25:
workbench-container-3.1.1.jar
ExperienceManagerContent-3.1.1-xmgr.jar
workbench-legacy-tools-definitions-3.1.1.jar

2. Reload the jar files -  To reload the jars, use the following Workbench URL:
http://host:port/ifcr/system/console/bundles 


The bundles with the names of the jars needed to be located and updated by clicking the "Install/Update" button, selecting the "Start Bundle" check box, Ensure that the "Start Level" value is the same as the value displayed when you expand the specific jar (ie: "25") and browsing for the specific jar file.This needs to be repeated for each specific jar.

3. Stop and restart the jar files 

In the same console windows, in the "Actions" column for each bundle that was updated, click the "Stop" button for each row. The "Status" for that bundle will change to "Resolved". Click the "Start" button for the bundle and the "Status" will say "Active".
At this point the missing components should become visible in Workbench.

4. Stop and restart Tools & Frameworks services

Solution:
1) Make sure you have a good copy of content repository export. To do this, execute export_site on an working environment.
 Ex: /opt/app/endeca/APP_NAME/control>./export_site.sh  XMRules.xml
2) Stop workbench.
3) Go to $ENDECA_TOOLS_CONF/state/
4) Rename sling and jackrabbit directory in here to anything other than sling and jackrabbit, or back them up to a different directory.
5) Restart workbench, this will cause the sling IFCR repository to be cleaned up.
   Note: If you have multiple apps, then all of them will be cleaned up. In this situation, run 6) and 7) below for each app.
6) Then run initialize_services./sh|bat --force from the app
         Ex: /opt/app/endeca/APP_NAME/control>./initialize_services./sh|bat --force 
7) Then import_site <export file>
       Ex: /opt/app/endeca/APP_NAME/control>./import_site.sh XMRules.xml
8) Execute a baseline_update from dyn/admin followed by a promote_content
