OSPF Net Link State not being installed in Routing Table

Hi all,

hope you can help me. 

I've been having an issue with OSPF that unfortunately I can't seem to figure it out.  I have the following design:

OSPF.png

Where if I disconnect VLan 5, I stop seeing Switch 2 (all switches are 9300). I can see that in the switches 3,4 and 5 I can ping switch 2, but not from switch 1. Was checking the OSPF Database on switch 1 and can see the LSA in there with the route to Switch, but this is not being injected in the routing table from the switch.

I have the following configuration below in the switches. Do you know what can be causing this?

And the switches have the following config for the OSPF: 

Switch 1:

this is because you face split area 0 
you need virtual link to connect both ABR
