Catalogue search index not re indexing

Question

I just updated form magento 1.7 to 1.9 and everything on my front end is working perfect. The only problem i have encountered is when i came to re-indexing my catalogue search index and a extension called "Lucene Search Index" it isnt timing out all it is saying is that "There was a problem with reindexing process." also it is unsuccessfully with the SSH reindexing.

Please help if you can, Thank you

**If you need me to put up the errors form the SSH just comment and ask as it is very long so didnt want the post to be to overwhelming **
