So, I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 9.04 and after by first boot was notified that the built-in search module is going to go ahead and index my files for faster searches. Fine.
But after a few seconds the Tracker got back at me and said something about my index being corrupt. It asked if I wanted to re-index everything again. Fine.
Apparently the index was still corrupt, so I gave it a bashing.
Fire up a terminal and enter the following commands to fix this minor annoyance:
sudo apt-get install tracker-utils
tracker-processes -r
The first command installs the utility you will need for the second command. Suffice to say, Ubuntu works fine now.

Thank you for an advice.
Thank you!! It’s so rare that you find an answer rather than another question.
