Lucene Indexing Problem using WebScripts

kumbach — Fri, 16 May 2008 19:54:25 GMT

We're running into a frustrating indexing issue that I'm trying to solve.I have a space named Company Home/Additions. Users with write permission can create documents in there. Simple, and works well.In the background, I have a scheduled task that runs a WebScript that checks for new documents in Co

Note that indexing is asynchronous in some cases, so your code needs to gracefully handle the case where a search result is no longer in the original folder. That said, this should be a rare occurrence, so it sounds like there's something else going on here.

Which Alfresco version and edition (Enterprise / Community) are you seeing this behaviour with? Is the installation a cluster or a single server installation?

Cheers,
Peter

We're running 2.1.1 Enterprise on a single server installation (Sun Solaris).

In the Actions Tutorial from Jeff Potts, he notes a potential explanation of why this happens.

Hi

This sounds like a bug.
If you have reproducable test case can you raise the bug and attach the code or floow this up via support.

Are you storing your index on local disk?
Is it possible there is more than one instance of Alfresco running with the same configuration?

Is there any additional information in the log files?

I'll work on that if the test mentioned below fails.

Yes

Don't think so. We have two instances running, but they are configured to be independent servers.

Is there any additional information in the log files?

Nothing that I found useful.

We've recently upgraded from 2.1.1 to 2.2.0 and did a brief multi-user test and couldn't reproduce the problem. It was easily reproducible on 2.1.1. We're doing a larger multi-user test soon and that will flush out the problem if it's still in there…
