About two hours ago I got a message through from Exceptional that a search failed with a "RSolr::RequestError". Sure enough, search was down on my site.
I checked the twitter feed of WebSolr: http://twitter.com/websolr It didn't seem a coincidence that about the time search stopped working on my site, they tweeted: "A misconfiguration on one of our servers has a small number of indexes down. We're working on it." WebSolr has been rock solid for me in recent months and it was the first message on their Twitter feed since 22nd January. Their next Twitter message stated "It's fixed now". But even though my account's status page indicated that my index "looks ok", I was still getting errors. I was able to fix search on my site by going into the console and reindexing the articles on my site: heroku console Sunspot.index!(Article.all) Stephen PS: According to my accounts page, the number of documents in my index has somehow grown eight times after reindexing, but I'm not going to risk hitting the "Destroy this index" button and rebuilding it again right at this moment. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Heroku" group.
