Some files are not searchable using advance search

[fouada]

Hi Everyone,

We are using alfresco 4.1.4 and some documents are not searchable using advance search. We have already tried re-indexing but it didn't resolve the issue,

Please share some alternatives we can use to make the files searchable. This issue is of Production so please help us it is urgent.

Fouad,

Please follow through on these requests:

Please provide a node dump for one of the nodes you can't find via search. Also please provide an exact sample search you are attempting that is failing. Ideally attempt to find the node via the Node Browser rather than the UI and then provide your findings with exact queries that fail and if you find any, ones that work.

Also follow through on Kalpesh's idea to run FIX. That will return quickly, but will not have actually completed so you'll need to wait for some time after running FIX to know if it worked. If you monitor CPU usage for the SOLR JVM you should see it working and then after a while it will slow down indicating the FIX completed.

One other thing to try is to REINDEX the node you can't find. Details are here: Troubleshooting Solr Index | Alfresco Documentation

Specifically I would suggest, dump a node you can't find and grab the sys:node-dbid, then use the following URL to cause the node to be reindexed:

http://localhost:8080/solr4/admin/cores?action=REINDEX&nodeid=3​

Where 3 is replaced with your sys:node-dbid. In order to run this you'll need to make sure to import the browser.p12 file from your alfresco/alf_data/keystore.

Hi,

I have tried re-indexing using below url but it came up with blank response.

http://localhost:8080/solr/admin/cores?action=REINDEX&nodeid=3​

Is there any other option.

And one more thing can we delete  index of any file in alfresco?

Thanks,

Fouad
