As indexing can sometimes take a long time, the command can be interrupted
|
|
|
111 |
by sending an interrupt (Ctrl-C, SIGINT) or terminate (SIGTERM)
|
|
|
112 |
signal. Some time may elapse before the process exits, because it needs to
|
|
|
113 |
properly flush and close the index. This can also be done from the recoll
|
|
|
114 |
GUI (menu entry: File/Stop_Indexing). After such an interruption, the index
|
|
|
115 |
will be somewhat inconsistent because some operations which are normally
|
|
|
116 |
performed at the end of the indexing pass will have been skipped (for
|
|
|
117 |
example, the stemming and spelling databases will be inexistant or out of
|
|
|
118 |
date). You just need to restart indexing at a later time to restore
|
|
|
119 |
consistency. The indexing will restart at the interruption point (the full
|
|
|
120 |
file tree will be traversed, but files that were indexed up to the
|
|
|
121 |
interruption and for which the index is still up to date will not need to
|
|
|
122 |
be reindexed).
