[Tracker] No updates on File System %

[Björn Johansson <bjorn_johansson bio uminho pt>]

Hi, I installed tracker a couple of weeks ago and after some initial

struggle, it seemed to work. Tracker had a lot of work doing the initial indexing,

but after that tracker indexes on the fly (I have tested this and it seems to be working).

But now tracker seems to randomly begin to index the file system although I believe that the initial index finished. It also seem stuck on 1%:

bjorn@bjorn-ThinkPad-T450s:~$ tracker daemon

Store:

14 jun 2017, 06:46:01:  ✓     Store                 - Idle 

Miners:

14 jun 2017, 06:46:01:  ✓     Userguides            - Idle 

14 jun 2017, 06:46:01:    1%  File System           - Crawling recursively directory 'file:///home/bjorn' 

14 jun 2017, 06:46:01:  ✓     Applications          - Idle 

14 jun 2017, 06:46:01:  ✓     Extractor             - Idle

bjorn@bjorn-ThinkPad-T450s:~$ tracker daemon -w

Now listening for resource updates to the database

^Z

[2]+  Stopped                 tracker daemon -f

bjorn@bjorn-ThinkPad-T450s:~$ tracker daemon --list-miners-running

Found 4 miners running:

  org.freedesktop.Tracker1.Miner.Extract

  org.freedesktop.Tracker1.Miner.Applications

  org.freedesktop.Tracker1.Miner.Files

  org.freedesktop.Tracker1.Miner.Userguides

bjorn@bjorn-ThinkPad-T450s:~$ 

tracker daemon -f or tracker daemon -w does not put out any changes, although there seems to be miners running.

tracker daemon -t and then -s stops and starts the mining. 

Is there a way to know if tracker is really doing anything or it just hanged? 

Is there a log file somewhere ?

thanks,

Björn
