X1 Search 8.6 Release - Build 6003ch

$

I've been out of the office for a couple of weeks, and have not had a chance to follow-up with this. What I am finding is that every day X1 does a delta scan of my email, and this takes 5-6 hours. While the delta scan is occurring, X1 is essentially unusable. Is there something I am doing wrong that is causing X1 to do the Delta scan each day after logging in, or is there something I can do to prevent this from happening?

After it finishes, things seem to work as they should, but I've only had 3-4 days with this version so far. I cannot say for certain that this always hold true.

Masta Blasta,

I'm willing to bet what you're seeing isn't index corruption, but a byproduct of our fix for one of the other annoying bugs:
8.6 Release Notes wrote:- System time changing due to travel no longer necessitates a rescan of indexes

The delta scans on files are triggered based on a check of the "Modified Time" metadata value which was - previous to 8.6 - calculated in the machine's local time.

If that time zone was to change (for example: if you happened to travel between time zones), the modified time value would be inaccurate and X1 Search would re-index those items.

The solution for that bug was to change the calculation of the Modified Time to be in the UTC time format, which never changes.

The downside of that fix is that every item in your index must have that calculation performed on it. This requires removal and re-indexing into the index, as most metadata values are calculated upon ingestion into the index.

In order to avoid the issue of everyone who updated to 8.6 having their index be automatically deleted and rebuilt from the ground up, we elected to allow everyone to preserve their existing indexes - however, if you elected to keep those existing indexes the modified time re-indexing issue is still present.

Delete and rebuild your indexes, and I'll bet this problem is solved for you.

Literally just happened again, less than an hour ago, when I had to exit X1 to do a Microsoft Office 365 update. Restarted X1, and it is now in the midst of a full re-index process.

Hello,

Upon installing the new version I have lost all of my results.

There are 628,000 items indexed in my X1, but the morning after installing the latest 8.6 update I can no longer view any results.

The left hand navigation tree is visible, but when you click on it nothing becomes highlighted. The software is not frozen. I can click across the top navigation menu (All, email, email and attachments, etc). However, no matter what I click on, it states "no results" even though on the bottom left hand corner it says 628,872 items indexed.

I'm running windows 10 with latest updates. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing and it makes no difference. Do you have any suggestions as to what the issue could be?

Thank you.

Darn! I thought we had that one nipped in the bud. Would you mind sending me that PDF to my username at x1.com?

I'll send along page 1.

It is an Inso/Oracle problem. QuickView plus creates an even worse mess.

Not much that you can do about it beyond scream at Oracle.

I do have such xml files. I opened up a support case and sent them. I can't see anything of note or real value in them (they are very short), but perhaps they will. I'd upload them here for you to look at, but there is no attachment feature.

I shutdown X1 (settings to close its indexer on exit) and then manually use Acronis to backup the folder incrementally.
Works like a charm and gives me peace of mind as X1 index corruption occurs from time to time.

Just make sure that those indexes aren't locked by Acronis when you're attempting to index data!

You should see a marked decrease in the incidence of index corruption after this version, Poy. We've made what we think are substantial improvements in that area.

I know you're quite the power-user, so I'm interested to see your results.

Hi,

this "search service" is a X1 service running on your local computer, not on internet. The error you are receiving means that the search service is crashing for some reason.
Can you check the X1 logs folder (by default located at C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Local\X1 Search\logs for any xml files whose names contain "crash"? Examining one of those files may hint at what is the problem with the search service.

I am getting a very odd behavior now from X1. My results are all blank with a "Loading data" message (attachment). It is not as if the index is lost, because the email index clearly has 338,177 items (attachment). I also get an intermittent "connecting to search service" message. A restart of X1 did not help.

What should I do?

EDIT: I can't get the images to show, and there is no way to simply upload them. Not going to spend 20 minutes figuring that out.

I had the same problem 'error installing check logs'
The logs stated less than 10% disk space was the (10% = 50gb!)
Deleted file 111 to get above 50gb and it installed

Maybe it needs to check for the minimum available space, not 10% of free space

I had a big problem with a Udate in version 6. Since then I'm always waiting.

Are there success messages for 8.6?

Please let me know here, if the bugs are fixed, then I will also update.

Ab So Lutely! That's why I wrote settings to close its indexer on exit.

I remembered the good ole saying "Never touch a running X1" and resisted to press the 8.6 button for now...

I'll check it out as soon as there are a couple of positive reviews from raving and brave fans.

Yea. Nice to see a new release. Eager to check it out. With the volume of emails I receive I cannot function without X1!

moved emails in edit mode!

Lately, I have noticed that ALL emails that I move with X1 to my archive folders end up in edit mode!
If I work from Outlook and drag and drop to the same folder, the emails are "normal" received emails. So it is not a folder bug - it only happens to files moved with X1.
This is a major bug, as I cannot find a way to reverse emails in edit mode.
The emails have the the pen and paper icon, but were moved from my inbox as normal received email.

Due to this mode "reply" is blanked off and if you popout email it has original senders email at top as sender and not my email. If you send it, the archive is deleted as if it were an outbox.

I have lost emails and data due to this.

I moved files to an empty folder from the inbox with X1 and all ended up in edit mode. As mentioned, drag and drop to the same folder withing Outlook and the bug does not occur.
