Question

The collection you specified does not exists or is not registered with the ColdFusion Search Service.

While upgrading to CF7 from CF5, I am creating the new collections from Cf Admin. After creating, I indexed it from cf admin and then trying to search for the documents in that collection, and i am getting the following error. This was working yesterday. I have cheched the logs etc and nothing seems helpful in discovering what the issue is.

Document count is 11,745 and the size is 25,948 kb, which is not too much for a collection. I have tried to restart Cold Fusion Search Services and then ColdFusion Application services, but all in vain.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    So at last I figured this out myself and found a temporary resolution for this kind of problem. Majority of the times try creating the Collection through Cfcollection tag and then index it using cfindex tag, rather than performing these operations from the Cold Fusion 7 administrator.

    The only reason I can think of which might have caused the issue is – I have thousands of documents in the collection which I indexed. So while indexing the page gets expired. So I tried again to index it. This time the collection got indexed fairly quickly and I got the response that the collection has been indexed successfully. So for the first time when I tried to index the collection, there might be some piece of code, which did not register the collection properly and hence giving this error.

    When I did the same function using the code, with exactly same set of documents, it did not throw any error, even when I executed it for the first time. So the collection indexed properly.

    I am not claiming that technically this theory is correct, but this seems to be the problem.

    If someone knows technically what has happened at the back, please share it. For the time being, this is the fix – if you experience any problem in creating/indexing collections through cfadmin in CF7, do it thorough code.

    The new 2023 Enterprise update 3 software seems to have the same sort of bug.   However it doesn't work even by creating the collections using the tags/code vs doing it in the administrator.   We do have some collections that will run but the title of this page "The collection you specified does not exists or is not registered with the ColdFusion Search Service." is the same error I'm getting in 2023 ent.   Adobe is currently trying to fnd the issue but after a few days has not come back with a solution yet.   Anyone else have a current solution, please reply and let me know.

     

    Thanks

    I had the same issue and found, that collection names seems to be case sensitive now. In CF 2016 and 2018 they were not case sensitive.
