I see, that explains it :) Yes, I'd say forgetting to run index-init is a fairly common mistake. Maybe we should check at startup whether the actual indices match to the configured indices. Anyway, if the numbers don't match, you'll get plenty of errors in the log. > I assume there's no issue with rerunning index-init as many times as needed? No, no issue. It only takes a long time depending on the number of items and size of your metadata. Tomcat must be down while you're running index-init. One trick that can be used is to rebuild the indices on a clone of your repository (make sure the configurations are the same) and then copy over [dspace]/search to the production instance (while it's down). > Do you have to rebuild the indexes after re-running that, or is that just > taken care of as part of the process? Running index-init with the -r parameter is rebuilding the indices (I forgot the -r before, I think that one creates the tables). https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/ReIndexing%20Content%20(for%20Browse%20or%20Search)#ReIndexingContent(forBrowseorSearch)-CreatingtheBrowse&SearchIndexes Regards, ~~helix84 Compulsory reading: DSpace Mailing List Etiquette https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Mailing+List+Etiquette ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AlienVault Unified Security Management (USM) platform delivers complete security visibility with the essential security capabilities.
