Have to rebuild confluence 5.9.1 search index manually and routinely...

[Neal Culiner]

Hello,

I'm seeing the JIRA recent activity gadget not reflecting confluence activity changes or recent activity within confluence.  To get them to update I flush all cache and then rebuild the index and it's fine.  However, in 5.9.1 I seem to have to do this routinely.  Is it broke??

Hello Neal,

Did you try to rebuild the index from scratch? You'd have to delete the index file instead of clicking in the Rebuild button. Commonly it fix the indexes problems...

I have done this once already, the problem continues. I'll try again.

Hi Neal,

May I know if this happened before or in an old version of Confluence? Do you see any error in Logs related to the JIRA macros and or gadgets?

If this happened after an upgrade, it might be related to some bug in the new version of Confluence. Let me know.

Cheers,

Rodrigo
