This is a bug in how Lucene handles IOException while closing files. Look at SegmentMerger's sources, for 2.3.2:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/tags/lucene_2_3_2/src/java/org/apache/lucene/index/SegmentMerger.java Look at the finally clause in mergeTerms: } finally { if (freqOutput != null) freqOutput.close(); if (proxOutput != null) proxOutput.close(); if (termInfosWriter != null) termInfosWriter.close(); if (queue != null) queue.close(); } You are hitting an exception in that freqOutput.close, which means the proxOutput (*.prx) and termInfosWriter (*.tii, *.tis) are not successfully closed. It looks like the bug is still present to some degree through 3x, but fixed (at least specifically for segment merging, but likely not in other places) in trunk. Likely what happened is you hit a disk full inside the "try" part, and so the finally clause went to close the files, but close then tries to flush the pending buffer, which also hits disk full.
