My guess is that you keep a writer open even though there is no activity involving adding new documents. Unless I have a massive never ending stream of new data arriving (many thousand per minute) I usually try not to have an open writer. Opening, adding documents and closing the writer in iterations. It will help if you posted some code showing how you handle the writer. > I am currently trying to do a soulution based on > Runtime.addShutdownHook(Thread) but I'm not sure that the shutdown > thread can retrieve the index writer unless it is static.

You probably should not have to do that. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
