Trokair Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 This morning, while wanting to double check something in a long thread, I thought I could find the page/post I was trying to remember by using the search function and some relevant words. However the search function returned 0 results each time. At first thought I had misspelled something and that therefore it could not find the misspelled word, but when I tried some other key words, ones I knew where correct because control F on my browser found them on the page, the forum search function still returned 0 results. I changed the this forum/everywhere/ topic drop down menu and tired a few more times and no matter what I searched for it always came back with 0 results.

Colman Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I'd guess that a periodic job that updates indexes failing, leading to this and the lack of updates to activity streams and the RSS feeds. Trokair 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I think it is related to the Unread Content feature failing. Trokair 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 It is almost certainly related to the functionality used by the activity feed. Both are likely filtering the same database, and something in there is returning empty now instead of what it should return.

WrathOfTheLion Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 (edited) I've narrowed down the places it's doing it, and it's definitely getting an empty list by the time it's generating the web page, which makes sense given the no content displayed in the activity feed. I'll see if I can dig further to see what the query is they're running. If I can run that by hand then we'll know a lot more if it fails or succeeds in a direct query. The reason I suspect the sidebar is still displaying things is that the search and activity aggregates multiple content types, whereas the sidebar is only handling posts, or topics, etc. in any given list it shows.

WrathOfTheLion Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Like with the activity monitor, this used the same system as the background for how it works. This should be fixed now, let me know if you still have problems. Trokair 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Tyler Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 We are looking into it. lansalt 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I've rebuilt the index again. I have a strong suspicion we have some sort of hardware failure, of which I'll let you know how any progress on addressing that goes. derLumpi, stretch_135, Karhedron and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Tyler was talking to the hosting provider, but I don't know where we're at there. If they say the hardware is fine, I'll try rebuilding the index again, and if that breaks, I'll have to try taking the server down completely and back up. I can get it to work again rebuilding the search index, but that's not a solution if it keeps going down.

Brother Tyler Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 The trouble ticket with our provider has been marked as closed, though the provider didn't say what, if anything, was wrong. We'll be moving forward with rebuilding the index. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I've started rebuilding the index. If things are better, then it'll persist, otherwise it'll come back down again in a couple days and we'll have to move on from there.

No problems. It's gone down again, so what we're going to do is take the server down tomorrow, which I'll post an announcement for the time.
