rotating indices

[János Csárdi-Braunstein]

Yesterday i give this error:

{{{ ~ # indexer delta1 --rotate Sphinx 2.0.4-release (r3135) Copyright (c) 2001-2012, Andrew Aksyonoff Copyright (c) 2008-2012, Sphinx Technologies Inc (http://sphinxsearch.com)

I try to reindex every mail, but the "rotating indices" isn't gone.

I don't see anything in syslog.

And this is the output for indexer --merge main1 delta1 command: {{{ ~ # indexer --merge main1 delta1

The "indexer delta1 --rotate" output messages seem to be normal.

Could you please try running the "indexer --merge main1 delta1" command by adding the --rotate cmdline option?

good, this output looks fine

[János Csárdi-Braunstein]

rotating indices: succesfully sent SIGHUP to searchd (pid=19314).

this is fine?

[Janos SUTO]

yes, it is. It's not an error, not a warning, just a notification. That's why I recommend the --quiet option in the documentation, too.

[János Csárdi-Braunstein]

This is very crazy notification...

[Janos SUTO]

whatever...
