Re: [Dspace-tech] Strange indexing problem
Thank you, Andrea: I did find an old lock file. I deleted it and started the index-init. Hopefully, that will fix it.

I had this happen to me when an aborted index-update left behind a stale lockfile. Have a look at the directory that holds your index files -- [dspace]/search. Any files ending on .lock? If so, delete these and re-index (index-init rather than index-update, just to be safe). See here for an earlier discussion related to this: http://www.mail-archive.com/dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net/msg12722.html I'd also double-check that the search directory has correct permissions.

[Dspace-tech] Strange indexing problem
Hello: I discovered today that items added after January 28th are not being indexed by our DSpace instance. We are running DSpace 1.6.2. I don't see any particular errors. I have run filter-media successfully and index-update successfully. The items appear in the browse list, but if you search on the titles, authors or abstract information, these items do not appear in the search results. Has anyone ever seen anything like this? The only thing that I can think of is that, on the 28th, I did an ant update for some minor changes (for the solr stats) in the dspace.cfg.
