Hi Soutamo,
Everything was working fine until a few days ago. The environment has been pretty steady, and I think something must have changed to cause that error. I just inherited the environment a couple of weeks ago and I need to get this issue resolved asap. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Check from dashbords, macros, eventtypes which index it should use. Then check that this index exists and it has data and is readable. Look if there is any additional information on internal logs.
