Spotlight and Time Machine completely broken
I noticed a while ago that my Spotlight results were incomplete and Time Machine backups weren't finishing. I tried to reset Spotlight via System Preferences (adding and removing the disk in the privacy pane) and via terminal (mdutil -E, -i off/on, rm -r .Spotligh-V100) but without success.
The console reports thousands of the following errors:
| error | 16:19:03.743202 +0100 | mds | LaunchServices: store or url (null) was nil -10813, retrying |
| error | 16:19:03.743247 +0100 | mds | LaunchServices: Database mapping failed with result -10813, retries = 7 |
If I try to make a Time Machine backup, the errors are similar:
| error | 21:22:27.968375 +0100 | backupd | LaunchServices: Database mapping failed with result -10813, retries = 1 |
| error | 21:22:36.887358 +0100 | backupd | LaunchServices: store or url (null) was nil -10813, retrying |
I even did a re-install of macOS High Sierra (no clean install).
Any idea what's going on there and how to fix it? My searches are coming up short.
