Windows Service not rebuilding index correctly. - SearchUnit - Forum

I have set up the indexing service to run at 1am and to rerun every 24 hours. It does not run.

Settings:

Service Rebuild Start Hour: 1
Service Rebuild Frequency hrs: 24

I set up the service to send out an email which I am not receiving.

I modified the settings in the Index management tool under windows service and configuration

I even checked the file DocumentIndex.txt in the index directory and the index has not been rebuilt since I last ran it manually the other day.

What can I do to get the service to rebuild the index at 1am every day?

The server is a Virtual Private Server running windows 2008 server. I even get the same result on my windows 7 box.

I went into the Index Manager tool and on the windows service tab pressed "Trigger Index Now". the program closed so the index could be generated. Hours later, I see no evidence of any indexing. I also find no windows service txt file.

How do I verify that the windows service is actually indexing?

Yes. The path in the text box of the Windows Service is showing the correct directory. I sent you all the text files from that directory.

I ran the service manually yesterday:

As you can see it worked as expected. I also got the email log. What I didn't see is the service reimport the site at 1am as per the settings. I will wait to see if it reimports tonight.

I did not import that night as expected.

Reimport now occurs every day at 15:27 despite the configuration which is set to 1AM. The problem is that I triggered a manual import at 15:27 one afternoon and the configuration is set to reimport every 24 hours. It appears as though I need to manually start import at 1am to get it on the correct schedule. Or would a restart of the service trigger the return to 1am?

I restarted the service and today I got the email which stated that reimporting is happening at 1am. Thanks for all the help.
