Try installing or enabling Rosetta before running the Java x64 installer. For instructions, see: https://www.macobserver.com/tips/how-to/install-rosetta-2-on-apple-silicon-macs-m1-m2-and-m3/

I was able to run DocFetcher 1.1.25 on macOS 12 Monterey. Here's what I did: 1) I downloaded Java for macOS from java.com, specifically Java version 8 update 421 for macOS Intel (not ARM64). After the download was completed, I mounted the dmg file and installed Java via the .app installer. Typing "java -version" in a terminal afterwards confirmed that Java was properly installed. 2) I downloaded DocFetcher-1.1.25.dmg from the project website: https://docfetcher.sourceforge.io/en/download.html After...

I'm not sure if it'll work, but if it does work, then during indexing the entire 50 GB will be transferred over the network. This might be very, very slow.

@ccchan: Usually I use Gemini for simpler tasks and Claude for the more complex ones. Claude is good at writing small pieces of code, but modifying a large code base still requires a human expert.

What happens with Java 7? What output do you get if you open a terminal and run this command? java -version

Hi, if you run a so-called "update" on an index, only new files and files with a changed last-modified attribute will be reindexed. If you run a so-called "rebuild" on an index, all files will be reindexed. So the most straight-forward method is probably to run an index rebuild. If running a rebuild is too time-consuming, you could instead change the last-modified attribute of the relevant files, if you know how to do that. Or you could move the files out of the indexed folder, run an update, then...

Hi, DocFetcher doesn't support the newer Java versions. You need an older one like Java 7 or Java 8. Regards q:-) <= Quang

The daemon doesn't write directly into the settings or the indexes, so it can be left running. I'm not sure what you mean by "internal number of the index folder". The tree.xml files are part of the indexes, so they have to be copied as well. With respect to file paths, special attention must be paid. When creating an index, there is a checkbox "Store relative paths if possible" on the indexing dialog. If the checkbox is ticked, relative file paths are stored, otherwise absolute file paths. "Relative"...
