Rebuilding the search index

In some cases it is needed to rebuild the search index. This document will show you the steps to do this.

Tips for this Document

• Please, read this manual completely and work through the single installation steps one after another.
• The placeholder <installpath-bluespice> stands for the path to your BlueSpice installation, e.g C:\inetpub\wwwroot\bluespice (Windows) or /var/www/bluespice (Linux).

Rebuilding the search index

Please open a command line on your system and change to <installpath-bluespice>. Execute the following command:

php extensions/BlueSpiceExtensions/ExtendedSearch/maintenance/searchUpdate.php (Linux)
php extensions\BlueSpiceExtensions\ExtendedSearch\maintenance\searchUpdate.php (Windows))

With Windows, please take care that the environment variables are set correctly to access the php command.

Depending on the size of your contents and uploads this can take a while.
