Searching difficulties within collections

The past few days I've had trouble with my L6 search engine, e.g. this a.m. I plugged in a phrase from Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" with the search set up for "Spurgeon Writings" (a collection that I created & have been using successfully for over a year - it contains "Morning & Evening," The Met. Tab., Sword & Trowel, etc.) My search yielded zero results. I've also had problems with other collections during the past few days. Anyone else having such trouble?

Love in Christ,

Keith

Hi Keith

There have been a number of reports recently with searches returning zero results - across different resources.

The solution in most cases was to rebuild the index - type the command "rebuild index" into the command box at the top of the screen.

It is probably worth trying this but please note it might take some hours (depending on the size of your library and system spec) so may be worth leaving to run overnight.

I agree with Graham that you very well may need to reindex your installation... but that is kind of a nuclear option. If you want to examine other possibilities, please provide more details (what specific version are you running? What OS? Can you give specific examples and screen shots?) This thread may be moved to the L6 forum.
