I get an error message in a small window:
Tracker Applet
Tracker
There was an error while performing indexing:
Index corrupted
[ Reindex all contents ] [ Cancel ] [ OK ]
When I click OK or cancel, the error window closes, then reappears immediately.
When I click "Reindex all contents", I get a message that the indexing may take a long time, then it starts indexing. The error message reappears at once. If I then click OK, the error window closes.
The error reappears on reboot, and randomly other times.
Another, probably related, issue is that processes are running at 100% all the time. I first assumed that this was the indexer, but now the processes have used a combined 1466 minutes (more than 24 hours) of CPU time. While this is only a 1.8GHz laptop, this seems excessive for anything other than an infinite loop.
The processes are
tracker-indexer
python
dbus-daemon
trackerd
tracker-applet
All these processes have CPU usage of the same order (which is strange, normally only one process would be like this).
When I click "reindex all contets", the processes are killed, but they appear later. There is virtually no CPU or disk activity after I click [ Reindex all contents ].
I'm sorry if this post is confusing, but this error is really confusing to me. I suppose it could be a file that gives the indexer trouble, but I don't know how I would check that.
