Checking status of full-text indexes

[theorbix]

Hello,

Is there a way to check the status of the Lucene full-text indexes, and see if a given document has been properly full-text indexed?

Does Alfresco generate a specific log file to track full-text indexing errors?

And - last question… - is there a way to force the rebuild of an Alfresco full-text index?

I've an installation of Alfresco 2.01 Community, and I've noticed that the full-text search fails to retrieve a number of PowerPoint and Word documents that I'm sure contain certain words.

My suspect is that these documents weren't properly indexed, and maybe the Lucene index is corrupted…

See the special search codes here:

You can use them to find docs that have not been indexed.

If words are just missing etc. it is probably due to the transformer itself not being completely reliable i.e. we use a connection to the OpenOffice server to index powerpoints and it does not always do a perfect job…

Thanks,

Kevin
