Rebuild Index Problems

I have never been able to get my index to build. I assumed that my computer is not powerful enough to run Logos 4 so I gave up and went back to Logos 3 (until I get a new computer.) When version 4.0b came out I thought I would try again but it still fails. I have tried the following:

- typing Rebuild Index in the command box.
- deleting all the files in the LibraryIndex folder
- deleting the LibraryIndex folder altogether

If there is anything else I can try, please let me know, or if I need to just wait until I have a newer computer, let me know that.

Thank-you
Dave Begley

Windows XP - Service Pack 3
Intel T2300 @ 1.66GHz

I am going to turn on logging, let it try to rebuild and crash again, then upload all the log files.

It would be cool to actually use Logos 4. I guess this index thing has worked for some people so maybe it'll work for me someday.

1.00GB RAM

Logos needs a minimum of 3 GB of Ram. If I am reading your specs correctly, it looks like you don't have enough Hard Disk memory to run the indexer.

Thanks. I don't know how I missed that requirement.

it will run on 2GB ram , if your laptop/netbook will support it

David, have you checked out the minimum Logos hardware requirements? http://www.logos.com/support/techfaq#sysreqs

My Dell notebook has a similar processor, T5500 Core2Duo 1.66Ghz, 2 gig of ram, 25 gig free space on the hard drive (7200 rpm), integrated (Direct X 9 compatible) graphics, and XP. Logos 4 runs acceptably, especially since the 4.0b update.

Only 1 G of ram is going to be a performance issue, but I can't assure you that more ram will fix the indexing problem. Hopefully, Logos staff or expert users will confirm if your log shows a problem.

Have you monitored your ram usage in XP's Task Manager? You can see if you are running out, because that will bring your system down to a crawl. I'm almost always using more than one gig of ram, especially with other programs open.

I increased the size of my virtual memory just to see is that will allow the index to complete. I am giong to have to decide between upgrading to a new laptop sooner than I planned, or seeing if I can add some memory to my current system and keep it awhile longer.

I have to open up my laptop and make sure there is a memory expansion slot where it is supposed to be, and then see what is available to buy.

It wasn't long ago that 1GB was more than enough for everything. And I am a programmer that runs some pretty big programs. Logos 4 dwarfs them all.

According to those specs, 1GB is enough. Why do I need 3GB to do the indexing? I went ahead and ordered 2GB more. Hopefully I will be able to get this thing built when it arrives.

I suspect you need 3GB HDD space not 3GB of Memory; your system should work, make sure you have enough space on your hard drive.

Joe, what are you drinking in those fraps? Ram = Random Access Memory. Those those little sticking things with the square blocks on them. (volatile)

Hard disk does not hold memory, swap space yes, memory no. (non-volatile)

You need 3GB RAM; with less, indexing will probably be very slow if it works at all.

You also need plenty of disk space. The minimum is at least the size of the finished index plus 1GB, perhaps twice that. If it drops below that, indexing will fail. And then fail again. And again. (until you free up more disk space). Even if you're not running Logos 4, computers are much happier if your hard disk has a few GB free at least. My rule of thumb is if less than 15% of the total disk size is free (after a little cleanup) then it's time to buy a bigger disk.

Peter, if this is the case, please update the Logos hardware requirements page http://www.logos.com/support/techfaq#sysreqs which currently states that 1 G minimum for XP and 2 G for Vista / Win 7.

Question: I monitor available physical memory on my system via the XP's Task Manager. While I usually run indexing overnight, I have checked available physical memory during indexing, Task Manager indicates 100s of meg of available physical memory ( 1/2 G), but considerable use of the Page File (e.g. 1 G). Are you saying that increasing ram from 2 G to 3 G, less memory will be shifted to the Page File and therefore indexing and other operations will be faster?

Thanks in advance,

Scott

See my Laptop specs. 2 GB RAM is sufficient for L4 to run and index in both Windows 7 and Windows XP. My only issue at times has been HD space.

1 GB RAM was proving inadequate for L3 and my other programs so I added another 1 GB stick. It makes the system more responsive and I can run both L3 and L4.

Well now I must be having angels in my computer. According to the General Tab in System properties I have a Inspiron I9300 Pentium M processor 1.86 GHz with 1 GB Ram. It has taken a while to index and such but everything seems to be working fine. I have done a couple of searches as indicated on the forums that has taken others 68 seconds mine took 61 seconds.

I am running L4 platinum and at one point a few weeks back I ran L3 and L4 at the same time.
