Hi users and developers,
I checked out Xindice 1.1b from CVS using the build-1_1_b2 tag. Was
unable to make it work properly. I then checked the working version from
CVS out and replaced the xindice-1.1.b2.jar from the b2 version with the
new one both on the server and on the commandline tool. Everything
appears to be ok.
There is no 1.1b2 release. There is 1.1b1 (see http://xml.apache.org/xindice/download.cgi), and there is current CVS which is 1.1b2-dev

My question is, to both users and developers, how stable and reliable is
Xindice in its current state? Is it production ready? I'm very close to
selecting another database for my project, because it is not acceptable
risking a corrupt database with a probablity not very close to zero. I
originally wanted Xindice as my primary data store because it offers a
great deal of flexibility not offered by the alternatives. At the time
being, I do not dare using it this way, because I cannot afford losing
data or taking my service down for hours to restore from backup.
Why don't you perform your tests against latest CVS version? If you find corruption of the data, you are very welcome to file a bug into Bugzilla. Currently, I don't see any open data corruption issues [1]
