Spotlight issues
Hello,
yes sadly update 8.9 of elasticsearch broke the samba integration. Seems
like 8.10 is still broken. Stay on 8.8 until this is fixed. Ive emailed
Ralph B?hme of Sernet already, but hes got no time for it atm.
Im not sure about the second part of your bug report though:

Spotlight issues
So I have two issues.
1) Using Samba 4.19.2 with spotlight and elasticsearch 8.10.3 doesn?t work.
Errors:

Spotlight configuration trouble
I?m trying to setup Spotlight with Tracker (2.3 from Ubuntu repo) backend in Ubuntu 20.04 and Samba 4.12.7. I?ve followed the wiki closely but every time I try to search I get this in the logs:

Spotlight with Elasticsearch
Hi,
Is anyone using Spotlight with Elasticsearch in production and what kind of tweaking have you had to do? Certain search types seem to work out of the box, but others not. Perhaps fscrawler and Elasticsearch need some customization that the wiki doesn?t mention. There also seems to be a difference in using the main search box in the Finder window or the more granular options below, even if

Spotlight configuration trouble
Hi Louis,
I used your excellent packages but also tried building from source. I?m trying to get Tracker working. Elasticsearch was simpler to get going but it doesn?t really suite the use case due to limitations in fscrawler.
I actually created the mdssvc user but also tried directly under root once the dedicated user didn?t work. The problem might be somewhere in D-Bus configuration but I

And which one did you use?

Samba vs Windows - File sharing in a domain setting
Hi Louis,
The idea I had with this thread is to just get an honest comparison
between Windows and Samba when it comes to file sharing needs in the
Windows world, the missing Windows Search capability was just an example
to get the discussion going.
If I understand your reference correctly, there is a solution,
compatible with Apple's Spotlight, to index files on a Samba server

iirc I recently added fragmentation support to the mdssvc client, but
it's still not implemented in the client. Though

Samba vs Windows - File sharing in a domain setting
Hai Viktor,
I dont know or can't tell if this setup can use the windows indexing, i havent looked in to that.
I dont use windows indexer.
But i do know if you setup as shown and you add a webpage to the server,
that makes is also usable for Windows users to search.
There was some work done in the area

Spotlight performance
When comparing to native macOS Spotlight searches, the Samba & elasticsearch combo is much slower, at least for me. Samba takes minutes to return a few hundred results, while native macOS returns thousands of results in a few seconds. This is remotely over a mobile connection, LAN is probably better.
Is this due to the missing Spotlight RPC packet fragmentation support mentioned in the

How could I investigate this further? If I monitor session and system dbus activity with dbus-monitor I can see activity if I do ?tracker search pdf? as the mdssvc user, but nothing if I search through Samba. I only get those two errors below. So seems like Samba dbus connection isn?t working. I?ve followed the wiki very closely so to me it looks like it?s missing a step or the latest versions

Samba vs Windows - File sharing in a domain setting
I've been working with Samba in an AD domain setting for several years now.
Small potatoes, nothing fancy. A few months ago, I came across the
limitation of Samba, in comparison to file sharing from a Windows server,
that, at the current moment, it doesn't offer an indexing service that is
compatible with Windows Search. So, no matter how much I like Samba, if I
need this feature, I have

Samba 4.8.1: spotlight enabled share can not connect to Tracker
I’m having this exact same issue after upgrading from 4.7.x to 4.9.1. I’ve been using the same set of instructions to setup tracker for a few years without issue. Does anyone have any suggestions? I’m stuck on this and can’t figure out what’s changed.
Thanks.
