In my experience that if you built index at version x then use index also in version x. I never encountered any problems this way witj Lucene.
Can you maybe recreate lucene index on 7.3.0? Also how do you use database in your scenario? Are you using jdbc like operations like in Oracle database? lucene operations are independent of database operations.

We're encountering occasional problems that occur after unclean shutdowns of the database , resulting in "org.apache.lucene.index.CorruptIndexException: file mismatch" errors when the IndexWriter is constructed. In all of the cases this has occurred, CheckIndex finds no issues with the Lucene index. The database has write-ahead-log and recovery facilities, so making the Lucene indexes durable wrt database operations is doable, but in this case the IndexWriter itself is failing to initialise, so it looks like there needs to be a lower-level validation/recovery operation before reconciling transactions can take place. Can anyone provide any advice about how the database can detect and recover from this situation? thanks Tim --- Relevant parts of the exception: org.apache.lucene.index.CorruptIndexException: file mismatch, expected id=e673n8syolqg0phzxvw8d7czu, got=dwpa40yzwp7gf06xibrsx1pn2 (resource=BufferedChecksumIndexInput(MMapIndexInput(path="/databases/xxxx/luceneIndexes/SearchNameIx/_ 8x.si"))) at org.apache.lucene.codecs.CodecUtil.checkIndexHeaderID(CodecUtil.java:351) at org.apache.lucene.codecs.CodecUtil.checkIndexHeader(CodecUtil.java:256) at org.apache.lucene.codecs.lucene70.Lucene70SegmentInfoFormat.read(Lucene70SegmentInfoFormat.java:95) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos.readCommit(SegmentInfos.java:360) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos.readCommit(SegmentInfos.java:290) at org.apache.lucene.index.IndexFileDeleter.<init>(IndexFileDeleter.java:165) at org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter.<init>(IndexWriter.java:1121) ------------------ 8< --------------------------
