Hi Gary, a little late(have forgotten to recheck). The think with the apache is persistant. Also some other software is not easy to find with software-center as the latest tries has shown( e.g as non server packages LiVE, which should point to LiVES, but do not - in first place). So, the search functionality of SoftwareCenter is still ... not so good as it could be. The stacktrace listed above seems not be related to the topic of this report, but by accident I have runned in report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/1066539 where this trace occures. ** Summary changed: - software center is not able to find many server packages - DatabaseOpeningError: Couldn't stat '/var/lib/apt-xapian-index/index' (No such file or directory) + software center is not able to find many server packages -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1025237 Title: software center is not able to find many server packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/1025237/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi again melchiaros, and thank you for reporting back. I still cannot reproduce this on my Quantal install. In both searches, the correct results are returned. By your comments as well, it seems that this isn't a consistent issue. Possibly this is a result of early development cycle archive churn. I think we close this and then revisit this situation around beta time to see if this has settled out, and if it has not we can reopen this then or just write a new report. Thanks very much for your help!

Hi Gary, I have already retested it with the latest updates yesterday evening. The apache search was working, the phpmyadmin not. Today both are working. So the problem itself seems to be gone. I bring the system now to the latest upgrade level and retry it one more time to be sure. Anyway, the search function is still not so advanced as with synaptics and it would be beneficial to get some improvements on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1025237 Title: software center is not able to find many server packages - DatabaseOpeningError: Couldn't stat '/var/lib/apt-xapian-index/index' (No such file or directory) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/1025237/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Have retested in with the upgraded system. For phpmyadmin it is completely gone. Apache is different. When I use the phrase apache Software-Center is not able to find the apache server. When I use the phrase apache2 it is able to find the server. This is overspecific for a search function. I have failed on this also in the past. Who would think of the 2 at the end of apache?! ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1025237 Title: software center is not able to find many server packages - DatabaseOpeningError: Couldn't stat '/var/lib/apt-xapian-index/index' (No such file or directory) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/1025237/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1025237] Re: software center is not able to find many server packages
Hello mechaiaros, and thank you for your report. I actually just tried this myself and I cannot reproduce what you are seeing. For both search cases, I see the correct result appear in the list. However, looking at your attached SoftwareCenterLog.txt, I can see the following error reported. This would explain why searching for software items will not work correctly. Does the problem persist after you stop and restart Software Center?

For example you can give apache2 to the search field and see that there will come up no hits. Or try phpmyadmin for database administration. This can be done with all packages that goes in a more administrativ/profesional sector of the system.
