We're having a similar problem on the Citus docs - citusdata/citus_docs#513

For more context we recently changed some urls, reorganizing content into new sections, and it appears that the full text search database hasn't flushed out the old locations.

Is there a way to erase and rebuild the text search database?

Hmm. The URL that was broken previously now all work for me? (http://docs.usharesoft.com/projects/appcenter-user-guide/en/latest/search.html?q=docker&check_keywords=yes&area=default)

The MX one in the citus docs still breaks, I'll poke a bit more.

I've resolved the immediate issue, but need to look into it more. I believe it's an issue with the search index (JSON) syncing to the webs being delayed, and using old data, which then marks that file as including the recent commit, so commit N+1 of where a file is removed might still keep it in the index.

This has been fixed.
