I just finished upgrading from 6.3.3 to 6.5.1 last night. This morning, I am able to reproduce a problem where a search will hang in the "Finalizing job..." state in IE (Internet Explorer) version 11.0.9600.18537CO. Another thing of note is that there are zero results returned, although I know based on my search (and by performing the same search in Chrome) that there are events that should be matched. The Inspect Job page also hangs at "Loading...". I have reproduced this on two machines that have both cleared their caches.</P> <P>Any idea on how to debug this?</P> Thu, 22 Dec 2016 16:22:10 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287114#M86904 _smp_ 2016-12-22T16:22:10Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287115#M86905 <P>One of the things that helped our company in the past was adding <CODE>minify_js=False</CODE> in [settings] stanza in <CODE>web.conf</CODE>. The overhead is sending some additional spaces, tabs and new lines along with the rest of JavaScript code, which is minimal. But the issue might just go away, and even if not, it will be easier to debug on the client side.</P> Thu, 22 Dec 2016 18:06:41 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287115#M86905 arkadyz1 2016-12-22T18:06:41Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287116#M86906 <P>A long discussion about it at <A href="https://answers.splunk.com/answers/456802/why-are-searches-stuck-at-finalizing-job-after-upg.html">Why are searches stuck at "finalizing job" after upgrade to 6.5.0?</A></P> Sat, 24 Dec 2016 00:33:07 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287116#M86906 ddrillic 2016-12-24T00:33:07Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287117#M86907 <P>I cleared my browser cache and this did not fix it. But somewhere in that thread someone made the comment of holding the control key while refreshing the page in Chrome. I tried holding the shift key in IE, and that seems to have resolved it.</P> Tue, 03 Jan 2017 13:52:28 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287117#M86907 _smp_ 2017-01-03T13:52:28Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287118#M86908 <P>Great news!!! </P> Tue, 03 Jan 2017 14:22:05 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287118#M86908 ddrillic 2017-01-03T14:22:05Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287119#M86909 <P>Hit Shift-F5 on the search page.

But importantly, deleting the IE cache using the Internet Options dialog box did not.</P> Wed, 04 Jan 2017 17:17:13 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-my-search-stuck-in-quot-Finalizing-job-quot-status-and/m-p/287120#M86910 _smp_ 2017-01-04T17:17:13Z
