A note to developers, the code checked into lucene CVS ~Aug 15th, post 1.4.1, was causing frequent index corruptions. When I reverted back to version 1.4 I no longer am getting the corruptions.
I was unable to trace the problem to anything specific, but was using the newer code to take advantage of the sort fixes. -----Original Message----- From: Patrick Kates [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 01, 2004 1:30 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Spam:too many open files I am having two problems with my client's lucene indexes. One, we are getting a FileNotFound exception (too many open files). THis would seem to indicate that I need to increase the number of open files on our Suse 9.0 Pro box. I have our sys admin working on this problem for me. Two, because of this error and subsequent restarting of the box, we seem to have lost an index segment or two. My client's tape backups do not contain the segments we know about. I am concerned about the missing index segments as they seem to be preventing any further update of the index. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this besides a full re-index of the problem indexes? I was wondering if maybe a merge of the index might solve the problem? I could move our nightly merge of the index files to sooner, but I am afraid that the merge might make matters worse? Any ideas or helpful speculation would be greatly appreciated.
