Topic: EE - Full text search

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release):
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer?
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version:
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL):
- Web server (Apache or Nginx):
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro?
- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.
====

iRedMail EE v.1.4.0
Ubuntu 20.04LTS

I have just converted my old iRedAdmin Pro server over to EE.  I had installed SOLR on the Pro server as I have some large inboxes users search through. 

I have enabled FTS 'Full text search' in the EE dashboard but searching emails is proving slow and erratic - often timing out and returing a 'Server error'.  Is there a way to restore the SOLR setup to the migrated EE server.  Search working pefectly with SOLR on my previous installation and is now pretty much unusable?

Any ideas on how to improve this?

Re: EE - Full text search

Hi @nickg,

EE uses fts-xapian plugin for full-text searching:

I guess you're running an old fts-xapian version due to old OS release (Ubuntu 20.04).
Do you plan to upgrade OS to new version? e.g. 22.04, or even better, 24.04.

Thank you - upgrade to 22.04 LTS fixed it - although the upgrade was a nightmare and broke a lot of processes
