Would the post-new hook run if the database did not close? In my case
the post-new script was running.

Disk space is fine.

xapian-check gives:

record:
baseA blocksize=8K items=85613 lastblock=285 revision=73183 levels=1 root=268
B-tree checked okay
record table structure checked OK

Failed to check B-tree: DatabaseError: Stored total free space value wrong

spelling:
Lazily created, and not yet used.

synonym:
Lazily created, and not yet used.

Total errors found: 1

Not sure how serious that error is.

Now the weird thing: Overnight, it suddenly started working fine again!
I didn't do anything (not even the check command).

If it happens again, I'll try the patch you sent.

Thanks,
