Hi,

 

every view has a refresh() method.

 

In SSJS you can do a 

 

view.refresh()

 

or you can use  the method for your datasource view directly.

 

Hope this helps

 It's not the view I'm trying to refresh , but the index from the database.

The view refreshes fine but doesn't include the lastest items. 

This can be done with database.updateFTIndex(true).

Well I tried that also , but nothing changed. It wasn't indexed , and no error message (only 10 doc in database and 3 to index)

Are there different  ways to index a database ?

Now I'm manually indexing with ; application, prperties , index , update index. (the update frequency is immediate, but it takes more than an hour before it's indexxed if I don't do it manually)

Maybe this is an access problem, that's why you cannot do this from an xpage directly. In my opinion the best solution is to create a periodic agent to update the FTIndex. For one of my customers we have implemented this with a lotus script agent, here is the code:

 

 

This agent runs every 5 min., but you could even trigger it everytime a document is saved.

 

Hope this helps

Maybe user do not have rights to update database index or it takes a few second to complete index update.

 

I suggest place

 

 

There are a couple of workarounds for this behavior. As others pointed out in this thread a scheduled agent that runs every 5 minutes or calling db.updateFTIndex after every document change are two that might work for you. You could also write a Java Addin task for the server. Read this article for some background on that.

I just found out that the database that should be indexed is another database than the one I'm currently in.

How can I do the updateFTIndex on this other database on the same server? 

and also 

What access do I have to give to the user to this other database? (is creating documents enough ?) 

The updateFTIndex() method is a method of the database object. To update the index on another database you first have to create a database object for the other database:

 

 dbOther.updateFTIndex(false);
}

 

I don't know what access level you need to be able to perform an updateFTIndex call, but you could use the sessionAsSigner object:
