Hi,

I'm not sure when these problems began, but lately I've experienced that the search engine(s) in Relatude have slowly turned useless. Just now, I tried to search for a node ID, but got no results. Even though there is evidently an article with this ID (see image A)

As for the other search engine, the word search here does not seem to work either. I seach for the word "Presse", in which I get 7 results. Only two that acutally has the word "Presse" in the name, and none that has the word "Presse" by itself. The article I try to find, "Presse og sosiale medier frivillige", does not show (see image B and C)

It would be nice to get an explanation to this, and if it's related to any of the newer updates, or if it's caused by something else.

Comment just to follow with my email

No, is it any of these?

Hmm, I may not be doing this right. I click "Rebuild search index", and get a response about queued items. But nothing happens with the index que number

I can't see anhy "Lucene" folder. Only a "Suggest" folder

Yes correct.

Here I see a lof of files like the following:

_1ql.fdt
_1ql.fdx
_2un.fnm
_3f8_ay.del
segments.gen
segments_3y9

Hi, I tried deleting the files and run it again, without seeing any changes. I also tried running "Delete search index" > "Rebuild search index" without any change (I cannot find the "Regenerate" as you mention)

Hi, I have removed this line from AppSettings.config, and will test again:

 <add key="WAF.SearchIndexPath" value="~\\App_Data\\SearchIndex"/>

To your second question, yes, I'm able to delete the files in the "App_Data/SearchIndex" folder (I guess this was the folder you referred to)

Hi, I cannot say that this worked either.

The files did not come back to the SearchIndex folder, but no new folder was added either. This is what I tried:
- Remove the line from AppSettings I mentioned above
- Empty the SearchIndex folder
- Delete search index
- Restart site
- Rebuild search index
- Test nodeID search in fast search, and word search in extended search. None of them worked

An important detail though: The search works fine in the old interface, /edit. The nodeID I wasn't able to find, showed up in the fast search. And searching for "Presse" in the extended search also worked as expected. Here I chose to search for "Name". If I choose to search for "Content", I get the same results as in extended search in /relatude.

To me, these results seems to show that the problem is not on us and our indexing, but on the new interface. I don't know why the node ID search is not working in the new interface. But as for the extended search, I imagine you have simply chose to use the "Content" search only in the new interface, thinking this would cover all results. Unfortunately it doesn't.

It may be that this could be fixed by our indexing. But primarily it seems to me that you have landed on a worse solution than you had before, if it takes so much work in order to use the search on the new interface compared with the old.
