SUMMARY Baloo search stop working. After baloo stopped working, trying to fix it I purged the database and re-indexed all the files without luck. Only baloo started working in the same session doing this steps: - balooctl disable - remove .config/baloofilerc - balooctl purge - balooctl enable - Logout and login again Baloosearch works fine in terminal and in dolphin, but not in krunner. BUT if the machine is rebooted, again baloo stops working and no searchs, even with baloosearch, in dolphin or krunner. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Type existing file/folder name in krunner or baloosearch or dolphin search 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT Empty results EXPECTED RESULT Valid search results SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.20.4 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.77.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I confirm the bug in 5.77. I downgraded to 5.76 and it works fine, even I didnt rebuild the index
Confirm that the downgrading works just fine. Thanks
Same here. Downgrading to baloo 5.76 (from 5.77) fixes the issue. As mentioned in bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=409499 Doing (on version 5.77): balooctl enable gives the following odd message: 61924499171376643 "/home/username/" renaming "username" to "" where username is my username, and baloosearch goes back to displaying empty lines and crashing. It seems that baloo corrupts de index.
