Thanks Erik, that worked. I was able to remove the corrupt index and now it looks like the index is OK. I was able to view the number of documents in the index. Before that I was getting the error, java.io.IOException: read past EOF
I am yet to find out how my index got corrupted. There is another thread going on about this topic, http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg03165.html If anybody is facing similar problem and is interested in the code I can post it here.
