I enabled the verbose output and I only get always this error: ... processing /usr/kde/3.5/share/applications/kde/desktop.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 ERROR: unknown service Applications processing /usr/kde/3.5/share/applications/kde/kfmclient_dir.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 ERROR: unknown service Applications processing /usr/kde/3.5/share/applications/kde/lanbrowser.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 ERROR: unknown service Applications processing /usr/kde/3.5/share/applications/kde/kfontview.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 ERROR: unknown service Applications processing /usr/kde/3.5/share/applications/kde/kcmhistory.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 ERROR: unknown service Applications ... It runs now for quite some time and still hangs on all these files and gives always this error. Seems that other users have this too: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tracker/+bug/146243

It's a bit strange. I just looked up the source and there you have: static void process_index_entity (Tracker *tracker, FileInfo *info) { ServiceDef *def; gchar *service_info; gchar *str; /*...*/ service_info = tracker_get_service_for_uri (info->uri); if (!service_info) { tracker_error ("ERROR: cannot find service for path %s", info->uri); return; } str = g_utf8_strdown (service_info, -1); def = g_hash_table_lookup (tracker->service_table, str); g_free (str); if (!def) { if (service_info) { tracker_error ("ERROR: unknown service %s", service_info); } else { tracker_error ("ERROR: unknown service"); } g_free (service_info); return; } if (info->is_directory) { info->is_hidden = !def->show_service_directories; tracker_db_index_file (tracker->index_db, info, NULL, NULL); g_free (service_info); return; } else { info->is_hidden = !def->show_service_files; } if (g_str_has_suffix (service_info, "Emails")) { /*...*/ } else if (strcmp (service_info, "Files") == 0) { /*...*/ } else if (strcmp (service_info, "WebHistory") ==0 ) { /*...*/ } else if (g_str_has_suffix (service_info, "Conversations")) { /*...*/ } else if (strcmp (service_info, "Applications") == 0) { /*...*/ } else { /*...*/ } g_free (service_info); } I searched in the whole code for "service_table" and I get: sanity_check_option_values(): tracker->service_table = g_hash_table_new_full (g_str_hash, g_str_equal, NULL, NULL); And some g_hash_table_lookup() to this service_table. But there is no single line of code which adds any entries to this table! The whole code seems broken somehow... Also, if you look at process_index_entity(), the only place where it needs this ServiceDef is to set info->is_hidden. Probably it works correct if you would set info->is_hidden manually to false and you just ignore the check if it founds a ServiceDef. But that seems more than a hack than a real solution. I will try to ask the dev what the meaning of this is...
Just for fun I removed this check. Then I always get this: ... Processing /usr/share/applications/allegro-setup-allegro.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 Service Applications not supported yet Processing /usr/share/applications/file-roller.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 Service Applications not supported yet Processing /usr/share/applications/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 Service Applications not supported yet Processing /usr/share/applications/cddb-slave.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 Service Applications not supported yet Processing /usr/share/applications/qtpfsgui.desktop with action TRACKER_ACTION_CHECK and counter 0 Service Applications not supported yet ...
The same problem: ... info->service_type_id = tracker_get_id_for_service (service); if (info->service_type_id == -1) { tracker_log ("Service %s not supported yet", service); return; } ... And: int tracker_get_id_for_service (const char *service) { char *name = g_utf8_strdown (service, -1); ServiceDef *def = g_hash_table_lookup (tracker->service_table, name); g_free (name); if (!def) { return -1; } return def->id; }
*** Bug 216482 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Upstream bug was filled here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=526296 It seems that some problems with the current DB results in this bug. Deleting the file ~/.local/share/tracker/data/common.db and running 'trackerd --reindex' after helped, it seems to index correctly now. Perhaps this was because I used tracker-0.6.3 before and perhaps the DBs are incompatible with each other. In this case, there should be a hint in the ebuild of tracker-0.6.6-r1 which checks this.
Tracker 0.6 is gone, 0.7.10 has been added to the tree and live ebuild has been updated to git repository with 0.7 deps. Please give them a shot. I'll start adding back tracker support to apps as patches come in. Thanks for your patience.
