    Locking of Examine Index keeps happening, whats wrong??

    We have a big problem with our site. It often happens the Examine Indexes get locked, most of the times when a node with many children gets published. But this shouldn't be a problem, right?..

    A write.lock file appears in both Internal AND External folder in App_Data folder. The write.lock is can't be manually removed, because the w3wp process keeps this file locked by itself. 

    Because it's a website we much content, we use Examine to deliver the content on the website, but when the Index is locked, publishing content is useless then, it won't appear on the site... This is added to logfile when publishing:
    "System.Exception: Cannot index queue items, the index is currently locked,, IndexSet: InternalIndexSet"

    Does anyone have the same problems? Anyone know any solutions? Would be great if someone could help.

    We're using: Umbraco version 7.2.2 assembly: 1.0.5529.18522

    Hi Remko,

    Can you tell me something more about the server setup ? Are you perhaps on a load balanced environment.

    Hi Dave, yes I can:

    The website works one one server, so not loadbalanced.

     

    It's a Windows 2012 operation system, installed within the cloud of Microsoft Azure.


    The problem now seems to happen more often, every time a new Newsitem is published, the write.lock file appears and is in use by the w3wp.exe process. So it can't be removed manually. What could possibly a reason for this? We don't have any clue, and our customer is getter more sad/angry everytime it happens :(. We want Umbraco to give our customer a big smile instead ;-)

    Nobody has this problem?

    I've upgraded to latest Umbraco, but problem keeps appearing:

    2015-04-20 15:33:48,576 [60] ERROR UmbracoExamine.DataServices.UmbracoLogService - [Thread 24] Provider=ExternalIndexer, NodeId=-1

    System.Exception: Cannot index queue items, the index is currently locked,, IndexSet: ExternalIndexSet

     

    It's driving me nuts, can anyone please help me with this one??

    Hi,

    Have you managed to find a solution to this problem? I think something like this is happening to my new install and I have a tight deadline?

    Hi Everybody...

    I am running into the same problem in our QA machine. I applied the latest patches for our Windows Server 2012 R2 and that solved another issue we were having with Umbraco restarting on every content change. But now that this problem is gone We are still experiencing the issue with this message:

    "Provider=InternalMemberIndexer, NodeId=-1 System.Exception: Cannot index queue items, the index is currently locked,, IndexSet: InternalMemberIndexSet"

    This is recurrent and consistent with any content that we try to update.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Jorge.

    Thanks, Stefan

    Hi everyone,

    we also got this problem at our production environment running on a single server and Umbraco 7.3.0.

    Has anyone found a solution on this? Will it help to upgrade Umbraco?
