"Rebuild index" doesn’t

Due to a database corruption issue, we had to reload a slightly old backup of db/component. However, now (obviously) our most recently released components do not show up in the repository. The contents of these under nexus3/blobs/default/content/ are still there, they just don’t show up in the GUI. Under Settings->Repositories->[Repository] there is a “Rebuild Index” button, but it doesn’t seem to do anything: it returns immediately, and after this the new releases are still not shown.

Thanks,

Alain

Hello Alain,

I would suggest you try running the ‘Repair - Reconcile component database from blob store’ task; this will recreate the point of reference in your Database for the blobs in your blob store.
