Problems with Examine search in Umbraco v8.3

Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 8

Hi,

I have problems with Examine search. Inside document type i created category dropdown where user can choose category for each news. Then on the news page user can choose category for which he wants to display the news. For this search examine is used. When looking for specific category with examine ("collection of news") there are no hits. But if i publish news page (or any other content) again examine starts working and displays all the news with this category. Everything is working until next day, then problem appears again.

Until recent everything was working OK. Application is in production environment couple of months already. New category was added one month ago and problems started to appear.

What is also strange is that if i use Umbraco backoffice examine search, everything works OK.

I read on the forum that settings on load balanced environment could be the problem, but i double checked everything and it looks OK. The problem also appears in iis express when debugging so i believe this is not the case.

I also deleted data from TEMP folder but this doesn't help until something is published.

Does publishing content in Umbraco triggers some special functions regarding Examine?

Code used for examine search. Any help would be really appreciated.

        ExamineManager.Instance.TryGetIndex("InternalIndex", out var index);
        var searchProvider = index.GetSearcher();

        var query = searchProvider.CreateQuery(string.Empty, BooleanOperation.And).Field("__NodeTypeAlias", contentType);

        //Only published items
        query.And().Field("__Published_" + userLanguage, "y");

        //Only specific category
        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(category))
        {
            query.And().Field("category_" + userLanguage, category);
        }

        //Don't search specific node id 
        if (excludeContentId != 0)
        {
            query.Not().Field("__NodeId", excludeContentId.ToString());
        }

        query.OrderByDescending(new SortableField("date_" + userLanguage, SortType.Double));

        var pagedResults = query.Execute(maxResults: pageSize * (pageIndex + 1)).Skip(pageIndex * pageSize);

Examine code works after publish until next day.

What is functionality of publish event that forces Examine to start working?

I created Umbraco scheduled task which publishes problematic content every hour, but examine still doesn't find it. When i publish it myself it starts working.

What is the difference between ContentService SaveAndPublish and publishing by "hand"?

Thanks.

I added Explicit master scheduling server based on this article, but still no closer to solving the issue.

Did you get a solution for this Andrej?

It seems like I've hit a similar issue with 8.17.0.
