Removing Default Warehouse prevents web app from starting

We get the warehouses from integration, so I thought I'd remove the Default Warehouse since we do not use it. Didn't think about it, I just did it. Little did I know that the web app would not be able to start anymore without it.

To me, this is definitely a bug. Don't allow the user to do this if it has such catastrofic effects.

Just to be clear, did you delete the warehouse, or did you delete the market? because the error appears to be related to the market, not warehouse

I definitely only deleted the default warehouse from the admin UI.

When this happened, I restored an older database locally, started the web app and everything worked fine. Then the ONLY thing I did was deleting the Default Warehouse. After that, restarted the app and now it crashed during startup.

Then it is definitely a bug. I will try to reproduce it and file a bug to Commerce team. Thanks for bringing it into our attention

Unfortunately I can't reproduce it. the demo site we use for develop does not have Default warehouse by default. Maybe something is with your site, please contact developer service for further assistance

(not saying it's not a bug, it is probably still is, but we can't really fix it without understand what's wrong)

The stacktrace point to Shipping method: 'dade7f46-646b-4a16-9226-4e574c8c79e6'. This is a "In store Pickup" shipping metodh, that I think is a commerce default shipping method...

We got the same error in CartModeInitializationModule when we change the setting "Is pickup location" for Default warehouse to 'No'. The site would not start the next time the site was restarted. Definitly a bug.

Just FYI this was created as a support case for the commerce development team and we are looking into it.
