             Summary: Property indexes reindex flag getting reset to true at startup
                 Key: OAK-3366
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-3366
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jcr
            Reporter: Chetan Mehrotra
            Assignee: Chetan Mehrotra
             Fix For: 1.3.6


At times it is seen that {{reindex}} flag for property indexes is getting reset to true. As per analysis by [~alex.parvulescu] it happens due to the order in which repository gets started and PropertyIndexEditorProvider gets registered. 

If the editor is registered after repository got started then _missing index provider_ for the 'property' type will silently set *all* the existing property index definitions reindex flags to true.

After some offline discussion it was decided that proper fix here would be to ensure that repository is only started *after* property index editor gets registered. This would ensure that the whiteboard tracker would be opened in that activate itself after the provider is registered and it is ensured that if a tracker is opened it gets access to already registered services without any delay. This would avoid any scenario where commit happens without any property index editor being present
