catalog search re-indexing.

I had an internal message telling me to update the sites search engine to elasticsearch, which i did, and now the catalog search needs re-indexing. 

 

Thanks to a couple of forum members i solved my earlier cronjob issue, but this one i again cannot find a fix for.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated as i am a complete magento beginner.

Re: catalog search re-indexing.

Hi @paul_alexander 

 

Run re-indexing command from root using command line

php bin/magento indexer:reindex

After that clear cache using command line

php bin/magento cache:flush

Re: catalog search re-indexing.

hi Sohel, thank you for the reply. I am new to this. The commands you have listed how do i get them to work in putty? The cronjobs i have added were done so through cpanel as i could not get putty to work. I have now managed to get putty to work, but i have no idea how it does work.

Re: catalog search re-indexing.

i have kind of worked how to get to the point of running that command, but when i do it gives me the following error

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '?', expecting variable (T_VARIABLE) in /home/alsalf29/public_html/vendor/magento/framework/Filesystem/Directory/Write.php on line 35ublic_html/vendor/magento/framework/Filesystem/Directory/Write.php on line 35

Re: catalog search re-indexing.

All solved

 

I added the php version t the front of the php part of the command. 

 

Thank you for your help.
