Reindex data stuck on Processing

Question

I reindexed all data successfully with SSH php -f indexer.php reindexall:

Product Attributes index was rebuilt successfully
Product Prices index was rebuilt successfully
Catalog URL Rewrites index was rebuilt successfully
Product Flat Data index was rebuilt successfully
Category Flat Data index was rebuilt successfully
Category Products index was rebuilt successfully
Catalog Search Index index was rebuilt successfully
Stock Status index was rebuilt successfully

But after when i go to Magento admin > System > Index Management all Status are still on Processing, and i can't reindex? In Magento admin the date (Updated at) is Sep 5, 2015.. But if i look in /var/locks/ folder the dates from the lock-files are from today Dec 15, 2015.

Somewhere it's stuck. What do i have to do?

Answer 1

Try doing it programmatically. This way:

$indexCollection = Mage::getModel('index/process')->getCollection();
    foreach ($indexCollection as $index) {
      $index->reindexAll();
  }

Answer 2

Check the files owner, it could be that php from command line is running by different user than when running php through Apache or similar. So after reindexing is done via command line, the index lock file is can be only accessed via php cli and when you go to Index Management it cannot perform lock and therefore thinks that reindexing in progress.
