Hey guys, I am a JIRA dev, so I thought I should throw in my 2c:
The root cause is most likely http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-15548
This bug was fixed in JIRA v4.0 and usually only effects customers with
lots of Issues (100,000's)
When a user saves changes to an Issue, we first store the data in the DB
(our primary data store), then update the Lucene Index.
Of course Lucene is not designed for real-time updates, so we need to
wait in turn to get a write-lock.
If another long-running write operation is running (eg optimize), then
JIRA will timeout after a configured amount of time (default 30 seconds)
and return the request to the user.
Now the DB is up to date, but the Lucene index is stale and won't get
fixed until another user edits that issue, or you re-index all.
The symptoms are that if you go to the Issue View page you will see your
issue with latest data because that page goes straight to the DB.
However, when you use the Issue Navigator for search, you will see the
stale data from the index.
The proper fix for this is to upgrade to JIRA v4.0.
However, I think in your case you are waiting for some custom plugins to
be upgraded to be v4.0 compatible?
In the meantime, the best thing is to edit jira-application.properties
so that optimization is never triggered (this is usually the cause):
# Number of issue index updates before automatic index optimization is
triggered.
# A value of 0 indicates never trigger.
jira.index.max.reindexes=4000
# Number of issue indexes performed in bulk that will trigger index
optimization.
# A value of 0 indicates never trigger.
jira.index.update.bulk.optimization=400
In addition you can up the lock wait time with this property:
# Specified the 'wait time' for a file lock in the Lucene
IssueIndexManager (in milliseconds)
# This value should only be modified if you are seeing a
jira.issue.index.DefaultIndexManager 'Giving up reindex' ERROR
# in your log files or requested to do so by Atlassian support.
jira.index.lock.waittime=30000
HTH,
Mark Lassau.

Eek, that's kinda spooky... that we didn't get to the root cause. I
sure hope Lucene is not to blame ;)

is fixed now.

Issues are missing after JIRA Client 1.4.1 synchronization, too.

Mark, theres actually a huge chunk of hidden issues around that
time.
click 'view all issues' for lucene, and sort descending. we have
about
20
right now, and you can easily see the gaps, those are the hidden
ones!
Uwe, that way you should be able to spot your infra issue too

By the way, I'm sure its prob the same issue - KayKay reported 2065
-
but if you go the list of issues that KayKay reported - 2065 is not
in
that list.

Robert suggested on Twitter that perhaps the JIRA Lucene index is
corrupt :)

I opened an issue in INFRA to get a Hudson account. I forgot the
issue
number and now I cannot find it. It is even not listed under my
name.
How
can this happen?

Subject: Hiding JIRA issues
Robert mentioned there are issues that appear to be hidden in
JIRA
unless you know what they are. Anyone else notice this?
An example he gave is
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-
2065
-
there it is, but now try and find it in the summary/search view
-
I
have
and I can't. Kind of disturbing. There are others as well.
