<li>Performing a full index with release 1.11 or later, over a
|

version created with a much older recoll release may
|

sometimes end with an error saying "backend doesn't

implement metadata". If this happens, you need to delete
|

the index directory (typically <em>~/.recoll/xapiandb/</em>)

and restart indexing. For big indexes, removing the
|

directory preventively may be preferable to avoid losing

time.</li>

<li>NEAR expansion errors: recoll performs stemming expansion

inside NEAR clauses (except if prevented by a capitalized

entry). Because of a Xapian bug (at least up to 1.0.10),
|

NEAR does not support multiple OR subclauses. This manifests
|
||||
itself by a 'not implemented' Xapian exception or an
|

explicit error message. Workarounds:

exiting after the first execution ?</li>
|

|

<li> If you are seeing a delay of a few seconds before the
|
||||
result list displays for the first query of a recoll
|
||||
instance, try changing the result list font in the query
|
||||
preferences. This is not a recoll problem, I don't know the
|
||||
exact cause (I've seen it happen with "Sans Serif" and go
|
||||
away with Helvetica or Arial).</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li> Under some versions of KDE (ie: Fedora FC5 KDE
|
||||
3.5.4-0.5.fc5), there is a problem with the window stacking
|
||||
order. Opening the "browse" file selection dialog from the
|
||||
advanced search dialog will stack the latter under the main
|
||||
window, possibly making it invisible. This is quite probably
|
||||
a Kwin bug, possibly related to
|
||||
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79183 or a correction
|
||||
thereof.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>Under Solaris, it is necessary to perform initial
|
||||
indexing with the recollindex program (the recoll index
|
||||
thread doesn't work for creating the database). Don't know
|
||||
the reason. Only idea I have is problem with exception
|
||||
handling (recoll catches an exception while trying the yet
|
||||
inexistant db).</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>The default filter for files in microsoft word format
|
||||
(application/msword, .doc), antiword, has trouble with some
|
||||
relatively rare files with a very small text, resulting in the
|
||||
following error message:
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
I'm afraid the text stream of this file is too small to
|
||||
handle.
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
Only small files produced by Microsoft Word on a Mac, or by
|
||||
OpenOffice will trigger this message. As a workaround, install
|
||||
wvWare and modify mimeconf to use the rcldoc filter, which
|
||||
will use vwWare if it is available. This will result in
|
||||
slower indexing for doc files.</li>

more than than a few dozen errors while handling

but sometimes encountered case.

normally for the local search).

(quite probably mainly for messages imported from outlook?). Can lead to

missing Exiftool -> no *.jpg names in the index).

joined by an AND instead of OR, resulting in no results. Using an

a crash report should include a so-called stack trace, something
