Hello, we've been using Lucene here with great success in different projects.
In one project we've a system which incrementally updates an index every night. This has been working fine. We've upgraded to Lucene 1.4.2 when it was there without observing a difference instantly. But now we regularly run into trouble. It seems like our index has "captured" a very defunc document and as long as you work around this document the index is still working, but as soon as you touch that particular document, you run into trouble: java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index: 114, Size: 19 at java.util.ArrayList.RangeCheck (ArrayList.java:547) at java.util.ArrayList.get(ArrayList.java:322) at org.apache.lucene.index.FieldInfos.fieldInfo(FieldInfos.java:155) at org.apache.lucene.index.FieldsReader.doc(FieldsReader.java:66) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentReader.document(SegmentReader.java:237) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentMerger.mergeFields(SegmentMerger.java:185 ) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentMerger.merge(SegmentMerger.java:92) at org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter.mergeSegments(IndexWriter.java:487) at org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter.optimize(IndexWriter.java:366) We can also create this by calling the indexReader.document() function directly with the right document number. It seems as the whole index is only containing only one such document. The questions remains, how can one "achieve" to insert such a defunc document in an index, or more interesting how can that be avoided in the future? Note that we rely on that "update" and do not rebuild strategy at least on most of the days!
