I'm using OpenGrok and get an issue when I try to search on a project. I get the error "Index database(s) not found..."

It's a bit weird, because there are other projects on this instance and they work perfectly. It's only with the last project in my list that I have this problem...

Does anyone have any idea?

You will see this error, when there is a problem with indexing of given repository. opengrok creates a "dirty" file in such cases under index folder eg. /home/opengrok/data/index/

Please follow the below steps to solve such errors.

  1. Identify the repository on which this error is being appeared eg. test

  2. Login to opengrok server

  3. cd /home/opengrok/data/index/ eg. /home/opengrok/data/index/test

  4. Move the contents to a temp location eg. mkdir /tmp/test; mv /home/opengrok/data/index/test/* /tmp/test
  5. Start indexing again.

Finally I found how to resolve it. It was because the indexes where to big. So I went in the OpenGrok directory and clear them. Then I launched OpenGrok again and everything went fine.

Hope this can help someone else!
