Utility to Retry Failed Wayback Indexing

Start an instance of TEST12 (log into a bitarchive machine (e.g. netarkiv@sb-test-bar-001 ) and find an arcfile. Edit the file in vi by adding a blank line at the start (so that indexing will fail) and copy it into /netarkiv/0002/TEST12/filedir Use the bitpreservation GUI to copy it over KB) Use the procedure from TEST3A: Upload a Small Bitarchive to upload a bad arcfile instead. Now restart the WaybackIndexer application (this is quicker than waiting for its timer thread to come around). You should see "Error indexing file '1-1-20090220082156-00000-kb-test-har-002.kb.dk.arc'" Restart the app several times. Use "grep unindexed log/WaybackIndexerApplication0.log.0". You should see something like INFO: Will now add '1' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued). INFO: Will now add '1' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued). INFO: Will now add '1' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued). INFO: Will now add '1' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued). INFO: Will now add '0' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued). INFO: Will now add '0' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued). showing that the indexer has given up on that file. Now reset the file: [test@kb-test-way-001 TEST12] $ java -cp lib/dk.netarkivet.wayback.jar -Ddk.netarkivet.settings.file=conf/settings_WaybackIndexerApplication.xml -Dsettings.common.applicationInstanceId=CSR_TEST dk.netarkivet.wayback.indexer.ResetFailedFiles 1-1-20090220082156-00000-kb-test-har-002.kb.dk.arc (Using the actual name of your file, obviously.) Restart the indexer. You should see it begin to try again: INFO: Will now add '1' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued). INFO: Will now add '1' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued). INFO: Will now add '1' unindexed files to queue (if they are not already queued).
