Guys,
One for the experts.
my event viewer is always showing in red "error ci services event id 4127
source ci version 5.02. Have looked in "services" but cannot see it.
Is this a problem and if so can I fix it?
 
CI is the Indexing Service or cisvc.exe.

cisvc.exe = Content Index SerViCe or Indexing service.
cidaemon.exe = Content Indexing service filter Daemon

ID: 4127
Source: Ci
Message: Content index on %1 could not be initialized. Error %2.

Chances are that you do not want or need this service running.

Turn off the Indexing Service.

Start | Run | Type: services.msc | Click OK |
Scroll down to and double click: Indexing Service |
Click the Stop button | In the Startup Type field,
select Disabled | Click Apply | Click OK
After you restart your machine it will stay disabled.

Indexing Service
[[Indexes contents and properties of files on local and remote computers;
provides rapid access to files through flexible querying language.]]

[[Indexing service is a small program that hogs HUGE amounts of RAM and can
often make a computer endlessly loud and noisy. This system process
indexing and updates lists of the files on your system, so you can search
for them quickly, but it's completely unnecessary.]]

Indexing Service
[[This service always has been a major resource hog. I NEVER recommend
having this service enabled. Remove the function via the "Add / Remove
Programs" icon in the control panel (Windows Setup Programs). It uses about
500 K to 2 MB in an idle state, not to mention the amount of memory and CPU
resources it takes to INDEX the drives. I have had people (and witnessed it
on other people's computers) report to me that the Indexing Service
sometimes starts up EVEN while the system is NOT idle... as in the middle of
a game. You may feel, as I do, that this is unacceptable. If your computer
suddenly seems "sluggish," Indexing Service is usually the cause of it.

Safe Setting: Disabled
