Some years ago I adopted the habit of always deleting the .4DIndy file (the structure index) when deploying .4DC files. I adopted this as a best practice after a number of ‘weird behavior’ episodes during deployment. It may be superstition, but the overhead for 4D to recreate the .4DIndy is very low, so I continue to do it.
As you say, rebuilding a .4DIndx can take a lot longer, especially on large data files. I only do it as part of routine maintenance. In this case I think you should consider deleting both, Mitch, and letting 4D rebuild them.
