I have a DNN site containing several portals. Each portal has it's own set of documents in a DMX module. When I run the script "Reindex Installation" using my superuser account, the script only indexes the current Portal ID (0) and the last Portal ID (8). Shouldn't this index all my portals?

It should, yes. It runs through all the records in the Portals table and then runs the reindexing on each. How many portals do you use and does each of these use DMX? Secondly: does the reindexing on portal 8 run into an error (check the output at the very end).

There is 1 main site, with 7 child portals. The sites are all on the same domain.

Examples
Main site: mydomain.com
Child 1: mydomain.com/child1
Child 2: mydomain.com/child2

I built the child sites using a portal template I exported from the main site. I am not sure if this has something to do with the problem, but the first child site I built, I deleted, so the portals ids are as follows: 0,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

There are no errors on the final index.

I'm not sure what could be wrong. The "reindex installation" script starts with the first portal it can find in the portals list. Then it works its way through it. You should see this in the querystring with PortalId=xyz while it is reindexing. Do you see that?

Yes, the portal is in the querystring. For the last couple months I've had a chance to test this under several different scenarios, with varying results. If I create an admin user account on all 7 sites and use the same username and password, I am able to re-index the documents on the sites ONLY IF I execute the re-index portal script SIMULTANEOUSLY on all the sites using the same admin username. If I use a host account on all sites and do the same exact thing only one site will be indexed. If I login to all the sites using a different admin user account and do the same as above, only 1 site will be indexed. If I login to all the sites using the same admin user account but don't run the re-index portal scripts simultaneously, only the last site to run the script will be indexed. If needed, I can provide you a copy of my site and database for you to take a look. For liability reasons I cannot give you access to the live site. Thanks, Mark Luffred

Hi Mark,

When the reindexing launches at the top you'll see "Reindexing Portal XYZ". It takes the current "portal settings" of the environment to fill this in. Does it indeed show this to be the same portal name every time you start it as host? It would mean that as you hop portals the portal settings (a crucial element of the DNN framework) remains the same which would seem odd to me. Unless you open several portals at once using tabs/windows in your browser at the same time. At that time you are mixing I think.
