External process writing to the filesystem. > The first thing I'd track down is why there is no metadata file. > > There is a checkbox in the Archiva config that will make it create > missing metadata files. Try checking that box and then clicking > 'scan' and then 'update database'. Does it now show up in browse? It does not. That checkbox appears to be enabled by default, and I have been doing 'scan' and 'update database', so no luck there. Strangely, when this happens, the artifacts show up in a search, but you can't browse to them. I mean they don't show up under the /archiva/browse URL, you can use the /repository URL and see them there just fine. > (I've seen it create missing metadata files.

It does create missing metadata files, but the process seems to be very hit-or-miss, and shows almost nothing in the way of useful feedback or diagnostics. Is there some other, more decisive manual way to force it to re-scan the entire filesystem and recreate the metadata files? ----------------------------------------- ==================================================== This message contains PRIVILEGED and CONFIDENTIAL information that is intended only for use by the named recipient.
