Tomcat was stopped with no problem before the saving was done.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Alfresco then started but I couldn't find some folders or documents. I've checked directly in the file system : they are here ! I have checked the db (sql file) : they are here !</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>What is really strange is that I can see missing folders in the navigation plugin (on the left). Moreover, using the node explorer in administration console, I can see all files and folders that are not displayed in main area that displays the items.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Anyone has already met such a thing ? how it is possible those components supply different results ?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>My version of Alfresco is 2.1.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>thank you !</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 05 Feb 2008 12:13:19 GMT bgl 2008-02-05T12:13:19Z Problem in displaying folders and contents https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/problem-in-displaying-folders-and-contents/m-p/161176#M115125 Hi,After an installation of a machine, I have restored a previously saved alf_data folder and the corresponding database.

I imagine because lucene is faster than db search but if someone who knows the topic could give me some hints, I'm interested.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>So the problem was related to Lucene Indexes. I have then changed a property in repository.properties to require re-indexing:</SPAN><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE><BR />index.recovery.mode=FULL<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><SPAN>Great ! But re-indexing has failed because it was saying that a node had never exist…seeing the date of the node, I understood since I had never created a content at this date…………….ok one is wrong but I want all others to be updated ! But this is not possible since re-index in done in a transaction. If one fail, all is failing…</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>So I modified the code of Alfresco to ignore the mistakes and get my contents back…</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I would suggest to have a mode where you accept failure but you are notified about failure (which node)… </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Just an idea.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 07 Feb 2008 17:04:58 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/problem-in-displaying-folders-and-contents/m-p/161177#M115126 bgl 2008-02-07T17:04:58Z
