My Spotlight stopped being able to find certain files, so I wanted to re-index the drive. I tried putting the drive on/off the Privacy list of Spotlight control panel, and when it didn't help, I tried the terminal command:
[mlevinoffice:~] mlevin% sudo mdutil -E /
Password:
/:
Indexing disabled.
[mlevinoffice:~] mlevin%
why does it still say "Indexing disabled" after the sudo mdutil -E??
Did it finish? Try
sudo mdutil -a -i on
or
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
Did it finish? Try
sudo mdutil -a -i on
or
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
Ok, "sudo mdutil -a -i on" helped.
It did say "enabled" and now seems to be indexing, although I see a pulsing dot inside the magnifying glass and a barber pole that has been spinning asd "Estimating indexing time" for the last 3 hours (instead of giving a percentage or time left). Any idea how to know if it's making progress?
I think you just have to wait it out. Depending on how much data you have, it can take a good long while.
ok thanks. right now, it seems to be frozen: the magnifying glass has a blue block behind it, the dot is not pulsing, and when I put the cursor over it, I see the spinning color pinwheel. Might it be stuck and need to be restarted?
Try a Safe Boot-Shift at the startup chime. Expect a much longer time to finish booting, give it a few minutes in Safe Boot and then restart normally.
The "a" option on mdutil tells spotlight to index everything. Playing with the Spotlight preference pane may have created the file- /.Spotlight-V100/Store-V1/Exclusions.plist. Spotlight may be confused. Does the console log show any messages?
I was going to suggest
sudo rm -rf /.Spotlight-V100/*
and then a restart to start the indexing all over again.
Michael, you can try this, HOWEVER, very important, you must absolutely only copy/paste this in to Terminal and be 150% certain that it appears in Terminal just the way it appears here. One incorrect space and there goes your entire drive with everything in it, system and users.
This will delete the Spotlight index. Once you have completed this command do a restart and Spotlight should now fully reindex the drive.
There are spaces between sudo and rm, between rm and -rf and between -rf and /.Spotlight. Those three spaces and that's it, there are no spaces in the rest of the command. If you accidentally put a space between / and .Spotlight you will lose everything. Proceed at your own risk.

Have you tried to remove all the files spotlight uses while the process is still active? I think this is a bad idea.
I think you're right. What about first running
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
The formatting here is creating a line break. There should be no space between /LaunchDaemons and /com.apple
Then restart and load instead of unload. Or is load even necessary after the restart?
Interestingly, the is an exclusions .plist file but it has no exclusions listed, while the preference pane for Spotlight does have some entries under Privacy.

what is all this stuff? What's crahsing repeatedly?
mds is Metadata Server. It's one of the underlying processes for Spotlight. Not sure I'll be able to do that much with it, but why don't you post one the crash logs for mds. It can be found in Console /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports.
Did Spotlight finish indexing? Are these logs from before, during or after that?
You marked this as solved, but then you are posting logs showing significant problems. Can you please explain where things stand now.
Well the Spotlight did finish indexing and seems to be working fine (your suggestion did it, which is why I marked it as a solution) - I can find the files I need to find. But then I noticed in Console I see these crashes, which I'd like to get rid of even if Spotlight seems to be working ok. Here is the log:

Now I see there's a problem - Time Machine won't work:
Indexer unavailable (200)
Error: Flushing index to disk returned an error: 0
Backup canceled.
so clearly still problematic :-(

Spotlight going nuts (pardon the technical term 😉) can interfere with TM backups. They'll run at a crawl.
Turn TM off until you get it fixed.
WZZZ's suggestion to delete the index, so OSX has to re-create it "from scratch," ought to fix it. It has for several folks, and I don't recall any posting back saying it didn't.
yep I had TM turned off, let the index rebuild, and then turned it on, which seemed like all was fine until I noticed the indexer unavailable problem I posted about. But then I rebooted, and now TM completes correctly.
sudo mdutil -E but still "spotlight disabled"
