Upgrade is going for full indexing always....

Hi All, I am upgrading a system from 3.2 to 3.2.2.7. I also tried to upgrade to 3.4.11 but the same thing happened. When I start the upgrade server by coping latest alf_data and database even though I have set index.recovery.mode=AUTO it goes for FULL indexing.If I set index.recovery.mode=NONE or V

Check if lucene indexes folder is empty? If so, it will regenerate index on startup.

Hi Nikes,

No the lucene indexes folder is not empty. I copied it from production server itself by getting the server down. I also compered the size of all the folders and they all are same.
The surprising thing is that, no matter how many times I start the production server it never goes for full indexing. But with the same data if I start the new version of alfresco it goes into the full index recovery.

Thank you!

It seems you are using Enterprise Edition. Have you already contacted Alfresco Support?

What you can try on pre-prod environment is,
1. Empty lucene index folder
2. keep recovery mode to auto
3. Empty you tomcat temp and work folder (If you are using Tomcat!)
4. Start the server and let reindexing process finish once.
5. Stop the server and start again.
6. Check if still it goes for re-indexing?

I think it is always good practice to reindex in case of upgrade.

On success, try upgrading as per the suggested upgrade path with custom code compiled with respective version of SDK.

Hope this helps.

Hi Nikes,

Actually we are not able to do the full indexing on 3.2 version as it is taking almost 5 to 6 days to complete just 50% of indexing.
So what I did is, I installed alfresco 3.4.11 on test server and copied alf_data and latest database on this server and then started the server in full indexing.
It took 2 days to do the metadata indexing and 1 day for full text indexing and then the test server was started.
Then I copied these lucene-indexes folder to the production server and started the server and it worked well.

But I am getting below errors:

Error1:
23:24:40,201 ERROR [pdfbox.filter.FlateFilter] Stop reading corrupt stream
23:24:47,049 ERROR [pdfbox.filter.FlateFilter] Stop reading corrupt stream

Error2:

Thank You!
