Index not working on M12

Hello,

I am working off of M12 and I have a few indexes for some attributes that I
added.

I have a home-made attribute called "uuid" which basically associates a
record to a user's actual entryUUID. the "uuid" attribute is stored as the
string representation of the user's entryUUID. Everything seems to be fine
when the server starts, but when I try to query based on that "uuid"
attribute, it returns nothing. If I get rid of the index for the "uuid"
attribute, it will return searches appropriately. It's quite possible that
I'm doing something stupid. Are my Equality Matching settings incorrect?
Any ideas?

Raw Attribute definition for "uuid" is below:

( 1.23.234.2431.55421.134
NAME 'uuid' DESC 'uuid for each entry'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch
SUBSTR caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15
SINGLE-VALUE USAGE userApplications
X-SCHEMA 'uuid-schema' )

Thanks,
Kevin

Yes. In some cases, when you had some concurrent reads and writes, the
index could be messed up in M12 and M13...

I am using the following as a base:
ou=phoneAuth,ou=umemdev,ou=system,dc=umem,dc=org

filter
(uuid=########-######-######-####-#########)

returning attributes are two other attributes I made.

I made the uuid attribute to act as a foreign key of sorts to link a user
to a certain other set of records we have.

I just tried to update on my local machine to M14 and reload all data after
making indexes and it works now. A problem with M12?

Thanks,
Kevin

What is the exact query you are using ?

J-Have you added the index before having added the data ? (the index
must exist before the data are injected into the server)

It seems so.

Now, why don't you use the entryUUID for what you want to do ?
