Spotlight issue! mdutil -i -on not working

hi there,
i have a serious spotlight issue:
all my drives/partitions beside the startup volume are not indexed/searchable
when i check with mdutil -s it tells me "indexing disabled"
however if try mdutil -i -on /Volumes/the_disk t does not work
also mdutil -a -i on does not enable indexing.
and yes, i ran the commands as su.
what is going on and more importantly:
wtfigo?

hey e.blofeld!
i have the same problem (since weeks) and no idea how to solve it.
i hope you could solve the spotlight issue. if yes, please let me know how, because it makes me nuts.
greets

  • Am having major issues! this does not work i dont understand..does the ipod have to be off while pressing the buttons if so how is it possible if it is connected to the computer either way it turns on..and when i tried these steps while the ipod was on it

    i am having major issues! this does not work i dont understand..does the ipod have to be off while pressing the buttons if so how is it possible if it is connected to the computer either way it turns on..and when i tried these steps while the ipod was on it still doesnt  work it just asks me “slide to power off” please someone help me i just cant seem to put my ipod in DFU mode

    To get the iPod in recovery mode and DFU mode you first have to turn the iPod off.
    Just what is the problem you are tying to resolve?
    Sometimes you have to let the battery fully drain if you can't turn the iPod off. After charging for at least hour try again.

  • BPEl Human Activity Issue - Reject case is not working

    Hi All,
    I have bpel processs. It is works like this:
    It has a human task for approval from manager with ACCEPT or REJECT as outcomes.
    Once the manager Accepts the request, the initiator (say applicant) should get a email updating the status as accepted.
    And when the request is rejected by manager, then the initiator(say applicant) should get an email updating the status.
    The problem is the human activity is working fine for ACCEPT and sending email. But struck up for REJECT outcome. It is waiting for task completion from manager, i mean completion of human activity even though it is completed as the manager rejected it.
    Audit activity log when Human activity got REJECTed by manager:
    *"waiting for "onTaskCompleted" from "TaskService". Asynchronous callback"*
    I tried the below things.
    1) Deleted the task form --> saved the process --> closed Jdev --Re-opened  JDev and created a new task form. Still the same behavior. Not working for REJECT case.
    Can some body help me in figuring out the issue.
    I am using SOA suite 10.1.3.1 n JDev 10.1.3.1
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    I could figure out the solution to the problem.
    The issue was with xquery. I build it wrongly. I could find this from my domain logs.Then I corrected the query. Now it is working fine.

  • Apache and Jserv issues - AppsLogin and AppsLocalLogin not working

    Hi,
    I am trying to understand the Apache and Jserv issues
    Home page - http://11i-tst-02.cisco.com:38901 - working fine
    This confirms that Apache core module is working fine. Does this confirm about the pls module also ?

    Is it related to SSO ? Because error mentions about SSOManager
    But why does AppsLocalLogin need to go thru SSO ?
    Doesn it mean Jserv issues ? I am able to see same message logged in jvm logs ?
    Restarting Apache doesnt help

    So, my question is why AppsLogin and AppsLocalLogin are not working - if servlets / AOL / FND / OAM links are working
    Is there issue with Jserv ?
    Can someone please explain the significance of the above tests
    And which tests need to pass for AppsLogin and AppsLocalLogin to work
    Thanks

    Since all the tests work fine as you stated above, I suggest you do the following:
    - Rerun Autoconfig on all tiers
    - rm -rf $OA_HTML/_pages
    - Bounce Apache

  • Spotlight Search in Mail does not work.

    I use Spotlight in Mail every day... all day. About an hour ago it just decided to stop working. Contacts, subjects, nothing returns any search results.
    I have restarted, done all system updates, and repaired disk permissions. Still nothing.
    Any ideas?
    Using Mail on Mountain Lion.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender mdworker -o -k Sender mds | grep -v 'boxd\|Norm' | tail | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    If any personal information appears in the output, anonymize before posting, but don’t remove the context.

  • Weird Issues when Internet Connection not working

    I hope I'm posting this in the correct forum.
    This morning, my internet connection was not working (a common issue, whatever it is that requires me to restart my router.  Tubes clogged, etc etc.  I could ping it, but not get out).  Anyways, before I restarted the router and restored internet connectivity, my machine took forever to boot and start X.  During boot, it would hang at starting the CUPS daemon for a good 20-30 seconds.  Then, it would eventually start and the machine would boot to agetty.  I could log in fine, but when I typed 'startx' the machine would do nothing for about 5 seconds, and then X would start as per usual.  Note that after issuing the startx command I got no output at all to stdout until after the delay.
    Question:  Why did this happen?  My best guess is that on these occasions the machine was trying to connect to the outside world, and it was only after a network timeout that things went ahead as usual.  But, that hardly makes any sense to me, for a couple of reasons.  Why would CUPS and startx try to connect to the outside? The lag in starting CUPS was considerably longer than when issuing startx.  The lag for startx did not seem long enough for a timeout.  Weird.  Any clarification would be helpful.

    It might something wrong with the IP addressing you used when you statically set the configuration or traffic from the IP address you used is denied.
    As you already have an IP config that works (Run ipconfig /all to get it) then you can simply proceed using one of these ways:
    On your DHCP level, do a reservation of the IP address so that it will always be allocated to your server
    or on your DHCP level, exclude the IP address of the server and set it manually on the server
    More information if you contact your Network Engineer for assistance.

    Hi,
    From your description, I know you want to set cookie value as httpOnly but it is not work.
    Please try to add codes below to your global.asax file:
    <SCRIPT language="C#" runat="server">
    protected void Session_Start(Object sender, EventArgs e)
     try
      if (Request.IsSecureConnection == true)
                    Response.Cookies ["ASP.NET_SessionId"].Secure = true;
     catch (Exception)
    </SCRIPT>

  • Spotlight "Show all in Finder" not working

    Hello
    I have a mac book pro 2.7 Ghz i& with 16 GB RAM
    1) Whenever I search for something in spotlight, when I click on "Show all in Finder", nothing happens
    Also, When I check the preferrences, I have some yellow triangles for the keyboadr shortcut
    I've reindex everything but same issues comes up.
    2) Also, it seems that it only searches on local drive, not on my external drives as well, even though they are also indexed.
    Thank you

    Got me stumped there.  My understanding (limited) is that the Apple Events daemon works for a while when freshly launched, but for reasons unknown it gets bolloxed after a certain number of calls.  No error messages appear in Console, which makes it especially hard to track down.  If yours gets hosed immediately, that's not the usual pattern.
    iPhoto and iTunes use Apple Events quite a lot.... if you have either of those apps running, you might see what happens without them.  Failing that, see what happens when no applications are running.  Finally, see what login items are being fired up (System Preferences => Users and Groups => Login Items) and disable those.
    This bug only crops up on a small number of Macs, and as far as I know nobody's been able to track down what triggers it. 

  • DMS Connector to Portal Issue – PDF files does not work

    I have a general issue regarding PDF files from DMS, these files are all defect when opened through the portal (works fine through backend access), but other document types works fine (like .doc;.ppt, *.xsl etc..).
    It is possible to download the file to your local pc, but still the same error occurs.
    When Adobe Reader opens a info box shows “The file is damaged and could not be repaired”.
    I have tried to update Acrobat Reader without any luck.      
    Any ideas on how to solve this issue?
    Thanks in advance
    John

    I will never understand why but in the end I rebuilt my 32 bit dell laptop from scratch and the pdf files can now be searched.
    I cannot search them on a mapped drive as I was able to with Windows XP because now they must be indexed and windows 7 will seems not to allow a mapped location to be indexed which must be done to make the pdf files searchable so I have had to move the files to the local drive.
    My Windows 7 64 bit systems can search the mapped drives just fine without needing to be indexed. Again I will never understand why this works and the 32 bit machine does not.

  • Spotlight indexing in mail is not working when I search, since 10.4.8 combo

    Hi
    I have noticed every since I installed the intel 10.4.8 combo update I have been unable to search my mail in Mail.
    I assuming that it is spotlight that indexes the mail boxes. Though this only appears to be a problem when I am searching using the search box in Mail.
    When I use the top right hand spotlight icon it works fine.
    Does anyone know how to fix the search in Mail?
    Thanks in advance.

    I mean the search box in Mail itself and when
    you search how it filters down in your inbox.
    Actually, if you pay closer attention to what David has told you, you will see the banner he mentions provides for searching all mailboxes or the currently selected one, not just the Inbox, & for searching on the entire message; or the from, to, or subject fields alone.
    The banner appears after doing any search using Mail's search box, even ones with zero results.
    David wants to know what options are selected in that banner.
