I've been having exactly the same issues as many of the above posters have had. I'm hoping to have a go at the Milan solution a bit later (deleting a few hidden files). One other piece of info though. A piece of extra info not necessarily mentioned above: there is no problem until I put a removable memory device in (it's happened both with an SD card and a usb memory-stick), within about a minute of the insertion of such a device the pop up with the choices that won't go away is on screen, and if I choose re-index I can't use my machine because it spends a long time greyed-out. -- Tracker index corruption (was Tracker does not stop indexing) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346912 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 346912] Re: Tracker index corruption (was Tracker does not stop indexing)
I should like to add my humble opinion. My system (quad core 2.4GHz Intel Core2) which worked just fine until upgrading to Ubuntu 9.04 - the Jaunty Jackalope, is now as slow as Windows Vista (sorry for the insult). Launching the about Ubuntu dialog takes nearly a minute. At no time was tracker-indexer enabled, and the dialog box in search and indexing is and always has been unchecked. Right now the tracker-indexer process (which sits in status uniterruptable for 10s of seconds at a time) is hitting 2.5 Gbytes (out of 3.7 available) on a 64-bit machine. I suppose 32-bit users would have the benefit it would crash and cease to be a problem around this point. No insult to the author but I think you should be disabling this package and removing it from all systems by default, until the problem is found, otherwise users will be deserting ubuntu in droves, as I was thinking of doing until I found this blog ** Attachment added: Screenshot System Monitor http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26757012/Screenshot-System%20Monitor.png -- Tracker index corruption (was Tracker does not stop indexing) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346912 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@gabriela Tracker *was* installed and enabled by default in Intrepid. By upgrading from Intrepid on your two laptops you inherited its configuration.

Dan - that's wrong. Tracker was installed by default but disabled on Intrepid. It was only ever enabled by default for a very short period after being installed by default for the first time in the Hardy development cycle. Likewise, it is definately disabled by default on Jaunty (I should know - I wrote the patch to do that for the Jaunty version). Those of you who have never manually enabled tracker but are experiencing this issue are hitting it because of another bug that occurs when you insert removable media (bug 359207).

I would humbly submit that this bug priority should be raised to High, if not Critical. a) One of the bugs that was merged into this one had a priority of high. b) Medium status is not preferred, see https://dev.launchpad.net/BugTriage c) Most importantly, this bug keeps a large number of users from completing crucial tasks (ie, using their system).

Medium is the correct priority for this (definately not critical - for that, the bug would need to make a large proportion of users machines unusable with no workaround.

[Bug 346912] Re: Tracker index corruption (was Tracker does not stop indexing)
Someone wrote Tracker is not enabled by default. Please allow me to doubt that. I didn't even know what tracker is, until these dialog boxes kept appearing on and on again on my main machine, with no way to get rid of them. Tracker was enabled on two of my notebooks, which were upgraded from Intrepid Ibex (and previously were installed by myself from Ubuntu X86 CDs). I certainly know that I didn't enable tracker manually, so it must have been enabled by default. On my main machine it wasn't enough to just disable tracker. It was unusable, until I completely uninstalled that tracker thing. I now uninstalled tracker from my other machines, just to be sure that this behaviour won't repeat there. This bug *is* a very bad annoyance. gabriela -- Tracker index corruption (was Tracker does not stop indexing) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346912 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 346912] Re: Tracker index corruption (was Tracker does not stop indexing)
To turn off the track, in a way that it won't start up again: (1) Right click on it's magnifying glass icon by the clock, and click quit. (2) Click on the System menu, and goto PreferencesStartUp Applications (3) Uncheck Tracker and Tracker Applet I did that for a while hoping I'd see an update that would fixed the problem before I turned it back on. Eventually, I was looking for some files that I couldn't find, and decided to turn it back on, but the indexing remained corrupted. Here's how I fixed it. Now, the indexes broke one more time after I did the fix below, but then I did it again, and it has remained fine for some time now. Here's how I got it to work: (1) Follow the steps listed above, then restart your computer. (2) Click the Places menu and go to Home Folder. (3) Go to the View menu and check Show Hidden Files (4) Delete all files located in the /home/lonnie/.cache/tracker folder, but not the folder itself. (5) Delete all files located in the /home/lonnie/.local/share/tracker folder, but not the folder itself. (6) Click on the System menu, and goto PreferencesStartUp Applications (7) Make sure Tracker and Tracker Applet are checked (8) Restart your machine. After you login again, the tracker will begin re-indexing all the files. It may not be necessary, but the second time I did these steps, I left my laptop alone, until indexing was complete. You can determine the status of indexing by hovering over the magnifying glass icon by the clock. I even turn off pidgin (which I have added to my startup applications) to further lesson the likely hood that anything might be changing files while the tracker is indexing. This may not have been necessary. Obviously, this just a work around. This bug needs to be repaired; we can expect average users to have to put up with these steps.

@Matteo: I was not criticizing tracker -- that I am trying to wort around this bug by purging the files and disabling the feature. And I made an explicit point of saying to Jamie -- you know, the author -- that my turning off the feature was *not* a criticism of his code.

[Bug 346912] Re: Tracker index corruption (was Tracker does not stop indexing)
A few informations to stop these scared comments: :-) - unchecking 'Enable indexing' in System-Preferences-Search indexing should be sufficient to stop trackerd, at least after restarting your session if it's hanging - you can prevent trackerd from starting by going to System-Preferences-Startup Applications, and unchecking the Tracker daemon - you can always stop trackerd using Alt+F2 and then typing 'killall trackerd', or 'killall trackerd -9' if it's not quitting - you can completely remove Tracker from your system by removing the tracker package, without any risk for your system - Tracker was actually installed by default in previous versions, which explains why it may be installed in your box without you doing anything for that. But note that it has always been *disabled* by default. - there is no 'trackerd' executable in your path, it's in /usr/lib/tracker/trackerd since it's not meant to be started manually But apart from that, Tracker is a great tool!
