UI is not blocked though, I can click it to remove it.
But it shows up every day.

Environment

  • Operating system: Ubuntu 20.04
  • Obsidian version: 0.12.5

Where are your files stored? Are you using something to sync?

#3

locally, no sync

#4

How many files total are in your vault?

Has this always happened?

#5

Thanks @WhiteNoise
502 items. As I counted them, I noticed that a node_modules folder was there while it shouldn’t. It raised to md files to 1104.
I just removed this folder so it’s now 502 files.

It happened after I noticed that search was not searching in .txt, so I batch renamed my old *.txt files to *.md … while obsidian was open.

#6

Ok, is the indexing still happening after removing the node_modules?

#7

I restarted Obsidian and yes, the message is back.

#8

there’s no -100/200 now.

Do you get some errors in console?

#9

I’m starting it without console.
It’s a flatpak install so I guess the terminal command is tricky to know.

#10

By console I mean console in the app
Ctrl-Shift-I

#11

Oh, Electron console.
No error.

BTW, 200 is the maximum indexed files?

#12

No you can have thousands of notes. 200 should be the number of markdown files left to index.

#13

OK, so it’s weird, maybe it doesn’t see the files in subfolders.
There’s no special privileges on subfolders.

#14

the number of markdown files left to index.

#15

Ah, ok. Well, it’s stuck at 0/200 since my last screenshot.
I restarted it twice but it should do something, right?

#16

Yes, it should progress.

#17

If your are willing to share your vault, Zip it, and send it to Licat via DM and mention this BR.

#18

Oops, now it’s -1,no error

It’s going to the parking level!

#19

There’s something weird going on. I would also ask you to try to run obsidian in safe mode (no third party plugins and see if it helps)

#20

I can’t share my vault, sorry.
