ColdFusion MX 7: Indexing a Verity collection fails with a Path not found error

Issue

---

Indexing a Verity collection may fail with the following error:

 Unable to create collection BeanCounter. An error occurred while performing an operation in the Search Engine library. Error opening the collection: com.verity.organize.WorkSpaceException: Path not found [VdkError_PathNotFound]. (-104) 

Reason

---

The Verity k2index service uses "workspace" directories to store files while it performs the indexing. These "workspace" directories are located under thecf_root\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_indexserver1\ws directory and are named "cf_jrpp-n_workspace". The above error can be thrown if there is not enough disk space for Verity to create these workspaces.

Solution

---

1. Stop the ColdFusion MX 7 Search Server service.
2. Delete all of the directories under thecf_root\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_indexserver1\ws directory.
3. Restart the ColdFusion MX 7 Search Server service.
4. Re-index the collection.
