auth failing with peer.

Hi Folks,

I have just reinstalled elsa on one of my machines and the web interface now show that there are logs indexed and archived but when I search I get "No Nodes available". The errors get logged into web.log along with a trace back but no indication of what the actual problem is.

Firstly apologies for misleading subject line — the email started out about a different problem that I eventually solved by reinstalling.

The issue turns out to be caused by searchd not running after the reinstall Starting it by hand fixed the issue. If this is the only thing that causes this error I think it would be a good idea to change the error message but I expect that there are a number of possible causes.

That message just means that it can't contact any Sphinx instances, for whatever reason.  Any idea why Sphinx didn't run after reinstall?  The script asks it to start.

I eventually worked that out.  It would be helpful to mention sphinx in the message.  Then I would have known what to look for.

Almost certainly my fault -- I have a reinstall script from back when I was trying to import all those logs.  On that instance of elsa I had upped the number of indexes to 400 and so the install needed to shut down sphinx, replace the conf file then restart sphinx to get the indexes properly created.  I'm not quite sure what broke but it is probably something to do with that.
