Indexing 0%

Jason Alligood

I've seen a similar thread, but I think this might be user specific. Any help?

You have a corrupt index, so you need to remove the folder /Users/Jason/Library/Application Support/Logos4/Data/y7yekpus.99s/LibraryIndex/ then restart Logos to commence indexing (which will take a while!)

Yes, I am aware of initial indexing. [:O] Any idea what would cause the index to corrupt?

Worst case scenario there is a piece of computer hardware failing. Memory being the most likely, but it could also be the hard drive, and rarely the cpu.

More likely than that however there was some sort of power loss during indexing. On occassion windows doesn't handle that with grace and something important breaks. This could be from brownouts, or kids turning the computer off by holding the power button, the vacuum catching the cord and pulling it out of the wall (while the computer is on and running, and logos in indexing)... Lots of things.

It crashed due to a missing file; one that would only be present because a previous indexing did not complete! Hence the need to remove the Index folder.
