Milos Kleint created MINDEXER-63: ------------------------------------ Summary: NullPointerException at org.apache.maven.index.context.DefaultIndexingContext.acquireIndexSearcher Key: MINDEXER-63 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MINDEXER-63 Project: Maven Indexer Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 5.0.0 Environment: netbeans 7.3 dev builds. Reporter: Milos Kleint Priority: Critical
see issue http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=219645 for some reason (unknown to me yet) the index files cannot be deleted. The codebase then gets into bad state. possibly wrong code in DefaultIndexingContext: public synchronized void replace( Directory directory )     throws IOException   {     final Date ts = IndexUtils.getTimestamp( directory );     closeReaders();     deleteIndexFiles( false );     IndexUtils.copyDirectory( directory, indexDirectory );     openAndWarmup();     // reclaim the index as mine     storeDescriptor();     updateTimestamp( true, ts );     optimize();   } when deleteIndexFiles(0 fails, openAndWarmup() is not called. also closeReaders() ignores indexWriter.. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
