Indexing Error with codeqai on Conda Environment: Continuous Indexing Without Completion

While using the codeqai tool within a conda environment, I encountered an issue during the indexing process where it continuously attempts to index without completion. This problem occurred when I tried to utilize codeqai's search functionality in my project directory. Specifically, the error IndexError: list index out of range was thrown, indicating an issue with handling the document vector indexing. Below are the detailed steps to reproduce, along with the specific environment setup.

Steps to Reproduce:

Installed codeqai using pip within a conda environment.
Ran codeqai configure and configured the tool with the following settings:
- Selected "y" for using local embedding models.
- Chose "Instructor-Large" for the local embedding model.
- Selected "N" for using local chat models and chose "OpenAI" with "gpt-4" as the remote LLM.
Attempted to start the codeqai search by navigating to my project directory (2-006) that includes .m, .mat, .txt. files. Running codeqai search in the terminal.
Received a message indicating no vector store was found for 2-006 and that initial indexing may take a few minutes. Shortly after, the indexing process started but then failed with an IndexError: list index out of range.

Expected Behavior:

The indexing process should be completed, allowing for subsequent searches within the codebase using codeqai.

Actual Behavior:

The application failed to complete the indexing process due to an IndexError in the vector indexing step, specifically indicating a problem with handling the document vectors.

Environment:

codeqai version: 0.0.14
langchain-community version: 0.0.17
sentence-transformers version: 2.3.1
Python version: 3.11
Conda version: 4.12.0
Operating System: Windows (with Conda environment)

Additional Context:

This issue seems to stem from the vector indexing process within the langchain-community package, possibly due to an empty or malformed document set being processed for vectorization. Given the configuration steps and the use of a conda environment, there might be specific dependencies or configurations that contribute to this problem.
