Reopening: Find feature does not work (sometimes) #118

Link to original issue
Today I needed to find something and find did not work at all, even when being in the same note. Refresh did not helped, but after 5 minutes or so I was able to use find again. I idi not found anything interesting in logs, like before :(. I had this issue on Firefox desktop.

This application uses Typesense as its search engine, but it only outputs fatal errors. You can change that by adding GLOG_minloglevel=2 to the environment variables in your compose.yaml file. This will also display normal errors so, if it is indeed an issue with Typesense, you might catch the error in logs.

Also, there's a command to safely reimport your data into Typesense. After restarting the container, open a shell inside it, and run php artisan upgrade:reimport-data-into-typesense.

A new version of Typesense is available and I plan to update it in the next release, however, I can push the update sooner if necessary.

Thanks, I'll try to find something useful in logs.

What does that mean? Could it fix some issues?
It's not crucial for update, but finding seems to not work just in moments I need it most XD

Typesense engine indexes your data to provide fast search results. That command simply flushes that data and re-imports it. Although I don't see a reason why the Typesense data might be bugged, this is quick and safe, so it's one more thing you can try.

I also added GLOG_minloglevel=2 to my instance and will monitor it to see if any errors appear.

okay, thanks, I'll try that
