Gitea 1.8.1 startup problem with issue indexer error

General
1

Hi,

two days ago gitea 1.8.1 stopped running (on a NanoPC T4 with Armbian Stretch) and on every restart I am getting the following error message:

[...itea/routers/init.go:95 GlobalInit()] [E] Failed to initialize issue indexer: leveldb: manifest corrupted (field 'comparer'): missing [file=MANIFEST-000042]

I am using the default issue indexer, and the system wasn’t used in the last 5 days and was simply running in the background. Upgrade from 1.8.0 happened on May 8th and until 2 days ago gitea worked flawlessly.

Any hints/ideas what I could try?

Thanks,
Andreas

Just tried starting gitea and get same error

[...itea/routers/init.go:95 GlobalInit()] [E] Failed to initialize issue indexer: leveldb: manifest corrupted (field 'comparer'): missing [file=MANIFEST-000169]

Running on a orange pi… worked fine. is there anything we can do / fix?

Nevermind, found the solution on github

Had to delete the indexers ( https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/7013#issuecomment-512749675 )
Just remove files
rm -rf <giteatPath>/gitea/indexers/*
