Check the status of P4 Search

You can check the status of the P4 Search service and see the last time the index ran from the P4 Search web UI.

Click Account in the top navigation bar and click Status. The Service Status page opens.

Service status page fails to open

If the P4 Search status page fails to open, check that the P4 Server instance is running.

Service not running

The P4 Search service requires other services to be available. If any of the services are unavailable, the Status page will indicate the services that are not running.

To determine the cause of the failure, check the P4 Search service log file. The default log file is:

<search install dir>/log/p4search.log

To address the problem, you might need to update the service.properties file or default.config.properties file and restart the P4 Search service. To learn more, see P4 Search configuration reference and Update the P4 Search configuration.
