[Bug 1993907] Re: nautilus freezes randomly
Environment: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS 64-bit GNOME 42.9 Windowing System Wayland FreeOffice 2021 installed and used to open Bug description: When in Nautilus, I select a .docx file and press space bar for previewing, then the machine freezes. Only remedy is to reboot. It's a fully reproducible freeze not random. I tested with various .docx file and one specifically made for that and issue is the same. These .docx files open perfectly well in FreeOffice 2021. If you tell me how to produce a process dump I' ll add it.

I am having the same issues, resetting tracker3 solves momentarily the issue, but after a time it comes back.

[Bug 1993907] Re: nautilus freezes randomly
Unfortunately, after several hours/days, the issue reappears. It's as if when Tracker3 is doing some more heavy reindexing in the background, when the laptop is not in use, it hangs. In my case the issue is definetely with Tracker3; Nautilus hanging is a side effect of not being able to communicate with Tracker (although it should handle it more gracefully, for sure!). When tracker3 hangs, checking its status with tracker3 daemon gives a timeout error after several seconds. Whenever I face the issue, I'm doing a tracker3 daemon -k to kill the daemon, followed by a tracker3 daemon -s to start it again. That works, without having to reset the index completely... until tracker3 hangs again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1993907 Title: nautilus freezes randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1993907/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1993907] Re: nautilus freezes randomly
This fixed it. Search/Filter now works fine in Nautilus. I hit another issue just before I checked this bug report, in which Nautilus couldn't find any files and crashed.

[Bug 1993907] Re: nautilus freezes randomly
Resetting Tracker3 (the file indexing daemon) seems to have done the trick for me.

[Bug 1993907] Re: nautilus freezes randomly
I can confirm this bug. In my case Nautilus automatically freezes if I use the search in Nautilus or if I search for files in overview. I haven’t been able to catch the output or why it freezes. I have upgraded from 22.04 and previously from 21.10. As a heavy user of Nautilus for my work this is a bit of a blocker at some times and reduces productivity, especially because I can’t search or filter files. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1993907 Title: nautilus freezes randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1993907/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 1993907] Re: nautilus freezes randomly
The problem seems to be related to the search provider, can anyone confirm? As soon as I search anything in Gnome Activities overview, Nautilus hangs.
