Lucene search
In Bigace v3 the MySQL search was replaced with Lucene.
Indexing
Currently Bigace indexes the following data automatically when adding or updating/saving:
- User
- Pages (metadata and content)
- Image metadata (like name, description ...)
- File metadata (like name, description ...)
- Docx (MS Word 2010)
- Pptx (MS Powerpoint 2010)

Legal reasons could be:
-
a crashed index
-
a missing index after Bigace migration
