This isn't a bug. There's a limit on how many expansions you can have for any one term. If you exceed that, you get the error "DRG-51030: wildcard query expansion resulted in too many terms"
You can increase the limit by setting WILDCARD_MAXTERMS in your WORDLIST preference. The default is 5000, and you can increase it up to 15000. Each expansion takes up some resources, so you may find searches get rather slow if you set it to the maximum value and have some expansions that approach the limit.

those error as above:
it do not appear in intermedia for solaris.
So,I think it is a new bug of intermedia for windows 2000.
Welcome to talk about the bug to me!

ctxsrv is deprecated in 8.1.7 so please use ctx_ddl.index_sync() for maintaining the index.
Regarding CLOBs there is a bug with NT when the content of the CLOB contains more than 2000 chars. It should be fixed in the 8.1.7 patch release.

Technical note: Troubleshooting DRG-11207 errors / INSO filters.

All,
The following is Metalink's Note 210319.1about troubleshooting DRG-11207 errors.
If the content is of no help, I suggest contacting Oracle support.

Subject: Troubleshooting DRG-11207 errors
INTRODUCTION
=============
Most of the errors encountered during creation of Oracle Text indexes are likely
to be caused when dealing with formatted documents. These errors are logged in the
view CTX_USER_INDEX_ERRORS and can be queried from the schema where the create index
statement was executed, or table CTX_INDEX_ERRORS queried from the CTXSYS user.
One of the errors commonly reported in these views is the DRG-11207 error.
Unfortunately, this error is often not useful in diagnosing indexing issues.
The INSO_FILTER issues are difficult to diagnose because Oracle uses a third-party
application for filtering. As a result, it is often difficult to identify the real
source of the problem.
This document will troubleshoot the INSO_FILTER errors associated with
the
DRG-11207 "exited with status X"
message. In regards to the INSO_FILTER, the error code implies that it is unable to
index a formatted document. It is important to mention that these errors can be operating
system specific and therefore this note is intended to provide some hints as a starting
point for analysis. Its possible that other cases may be reported and if this is the
case be sure to log the error with Oracle Support. Examples of the most common document
types are provided in this article (Adobe PDF, Micrsoft Word and Microsoft Excel).
For Oracle 10i, meaningful error messages have been added for drg-11207.
This has been documented in [BUG:2473885]
COMMON ERRORS
==============
DRG-11207: user filter command exited with status 1
Status 1 means "Could not filter the document". It is a generic error and indicates that
INSO_FILTER failed on a given document. This can happen due to many documented reasons: an
invalid environmental setting; document is corrupted, encrypted, password protected;
document version not supported(incompatibility) or due to a bug in INSO_FILTER.
DRG-11207: user filter command exited with status 2
Status 2 means "The INSO_FILTER has timed-out". The default value of the timeout value
for the INSO_FILTER is 120 (seconds). The default value for the timeout_type is
heuristic, which implies that if the timeout value is reached and the INSO_FILTER
has not started to write output, the indexing operation terminates for the document
row and Oracle moves to the next document row to be indexed. Beginning in 9.2.0.1
it is possible to change the timeout_type variable to fixed, which allows a
user to terminate filtering processing after the TIMEOUT seconds regardless of
whether filtering is progressing normally or hanging. The default timeout value
is generally enough for filtering most of the documents. If the timeout value is
not large enough then it may timeout even before filtering completes. PDF and
Microsoft Excel files are usually more prone to this timeout as the INSO_FILTER
generally takes more time to process these types of files. If this is the
case then you can create a preference with a larger timeout value in versions
8.1.7.1b and above. It should be noted, however, that the timeout attribute cannot be
changed dynamically. In order for the new timeout value to take effect, it
would be necessary to re-create the index with the new timeout attribute
setting.
For example, in 9.2.x to alter the timeout to 600 seconds(10 minutes) and use
the fixed timeout_type:
begin
ctx_ddl.create_preference('my_inso', 'INSO_FILTER');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('my_inso', 'timeout', '600');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('my_inso', 'timeout_type', 'FIXED');
end;
Documented reasons for timing out are:
1. the document is too large to be indexed in the alloted time set via TIMEOUT
attribute.
2. INSO_FILTER is hanging during the filtering.
DRG-11207: user filter command exited with status 127
Status 127 points to that likely an environmental issue with the shared library
environmental variable.
DRG-11207: user filter command exited with status 137
Status 137 meand that the ctxhx executable was killed as the inso filter is not
set-up properly. Confirm that the correct environmental variables are
setup(LD_LIBRARY_PATH AND PATH) and the format of the document is
supported by INSO_FILTER.
ENVIRONMENTAL SETTINGS
======================
Please note that any DRG-11207 error may be caused by the setting of the
environmental variables. Be sure that the PATH and shared library path
which is LD_LIBRARY_PATH (SHLIB_PATH for HP-UX and LIBPATH for AIX) are
correct, since it is this setting which actually invokes the INSO_FILTER.
Note : it is also possible to define the environment variable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the listener.ora entry for extproc. This would be
included in the ENVS section of the origin database LISTENER.ORA:
ENVS = 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<full_pathname_of_oracle_home>/ctx/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/lib'
LD_LIBRARY_PATH should include
<full_pathname_of_oracle_home>/ctx/lib:<full_pathname_of_oracle_home>/lib
For example:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<full_pathname_of_oracle_home>/ctx/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
PATH should include
<full_pathname_of_oracle_home>/ctx/bin:<full_pathname_of_oracle_home>/bin
[NOTE:133691.1] and [NOTE:135333.1] provides possible steps to get around this error.
SUPPORTED DOCUMENT ATTRIBUTE CHECKLIST
======================================
1. Determine if the filtered document is supported
A list of supported formats is provided in the InterMedia Text documentation
pages. Please check whether the format falls in the list of supported formats.
It is important to note that each Oracle version may support different
versions of documents.
For PDF Acrobat (full version), click on File->Document_Info->General and
you should see the PDF version.
For Microsoft Word and Excel, click on File->Save As and review the
"Save as type" to determine the version.
2. Determine if the document is corrupted
To verify if a document is corrupted, open the document and view it line
by line checking for corrupted output. Please note, just holding down the
"Page Down" button to view all the pages, it's possible that potential
corruption on a particular page will go unnoticed.
3. Determine if the document is a secure or copy protected document
Password protected documents and documents with password protected contents
are not supported by the INSO_FILTER.
For PDF Acrobat (full version), click under file->document_info->security.
If the open password or security password is set to true then it's password
protected.
For Microsoft Word, click under Tools->Options->Save. If the
"Password to open" or "Password to modify" appears as asterisks (*****),
then the document is secured.
For Microsoft Excel, click under File->Save As->Tools->General options.
If the "Password to open" or "Password to modify" appears as
asterisks (*****), then the document is secured.
4. Determine if the document is a encrypted
INSO_FILTER does not currently support encrypted documents.
For PDF Acrobat (full version), click under file->document_info->security.
If security method is none, the document is not encrypted. In other cases,
it is encrypted.
For Microsoft Word, it is not possible to encrypt this type of document
directly.
For Microsoft Excel, if the document is workbook protected then this
implies that the document is encrypted. To determine this click under
tools->protection and if the Unprotect Workbook or Unprotect
Sheet is shown, this implies that the workbook/worksheet is encrypted.
5. Determine if the document has custom embedded fonts
Stellent filters will succeed on the majority of PDF documents containing
custom fonts. Until now, there have only been a few documented cases of
custom embedded fonts causing filtering problems with PDF documents. If
there is a filtering problem with custom fonts, it will only result in
garbage tokens being produced as a result of the custom font, whereas the
remainder of the PDF document using the standard/built-in font will be
filtered properly.
To determine if custom embedded fonts are used for PDF Acrobat (full version),
click under file->document_info->fonts and review the encoding type.
The best way to identify whether a particular custom font will filter successfully
is to highlight the character, copy and paste into Notepad. If the output
contains garbage text then it is not likely to be filtered properly.
For Microsoft Word and Excel, regardless of what font is being used, the
INSO_FILTER should be able to extract the characters.

Gary,
This is two questions:
1. The INSO filter on 8.1.7 when converting MS Word or WordPrefect Docs to HTML would give you and used in
the word processor. The 9.2.0.1 version is not converting or in the HTML. Is there any documentation
from the Company on using the ctxhx and template files? If and tags are missing in 9.2.0.1 then it is a bug in the INSO code.
2. I have received an error in the CTX_USER_INDEX_ERRORS from one of the docs store in a BLOB here is the error.
DRG-11207: user filter command exited with status 1.
Is there a way to debug the ctxhx or INSO load libraries? I know what a 137 error is (NO LD_LIBRARY_PATH for ctx/lib)
but what a 1. Where is the FL_CMD_EXIT_ERR info? Status 1 is a generic error and you can't debug it. Could you please post your email address? I would like to contact you for a test case.
Thanks.

WebDB 2.1 & NT4 with SP ?

The documentation supplied with WebDB 2.1 on NT says it requires
NT 4 with SP4. Our systems guys refuse to deal with that SP.
I see some folks are running on SP3. Are there any problems with
this? Were they just kidding about the Service Pack 4 or above
requirement?

Oracle Intermedia Bug.

Hi,
I encounter an intertesting bug in using Oracle Intermedia.
There will be a problem if there exist a char 0xFD in the
"contains" functions when querying the database.
Assume I have a table mytest(Userid Number(10), body
varchar(2000))
I have index the column body.
I issue query like.
select score(1), userid from mytest where contains(body,'str',1)
0;if str contains character 0xFD, error will be thrown.
Do anyone know it is a bug or anything? Also where can I submit
these kind of bug to Oracle as I find nowhere to submit bug.
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for answering.
Yes I'm sure , both of them are using the same bind variables and it is:
(FUZZY($INTERNATIONAL) AND FUZZY($JOURNAL) AND FUZZY($ELECTRONICS) AND FUZZY($COMMUNICATIONS)) WITHIN SERIES_TITLE';
The same Query takes too long in Unix SQL*PLUS (~ 54 secs) also, but in Windows SQL*PLUS its faster (~ 7 secs).
Bu t if I chabe the Bind Variable as :
STR := '(($INTERNATIONAL OR ?INTERNATIONAL) AND ($JOURNAL OR ?JOURNAL) AND ($ELECTRONICS OR ?ELECTRONICS) AND ($COMMUNICATIONS OR ?COMMUNICATIONS)) WITHIN SERIES_TITLE';
then its in both Environment faster and nearly the same. But its not the same as the previous one.
I think the problem is when using the search as ?$<Word> (Fuzzy Stem together). But not everytime. Do you think its a Bug?

Using long vs. clob datatype with Oracle 8.1.7 and interMedia

I am trying to determine the best datatype to use for a column I
wish to search using the interMedia contains() function. I am
developing a 100% java application using Oracle 8.1.7 on Linux.
I'd prefer to use the standard JDBC API's for PreparedStatement,
and not have to use Oracle extensions if possible. I've
discovered that there are limitations in the support for LOB's
in Oracle's 100% java driver. The PreparedStatement methods
like setAsciiStream() and setCharacterStream() are documented to
have flaws that may result in the corruption of data. I have
also noticed that socket exceptions sometimes occur when a large
amount of data is transferred. If I use the long datatype for
my table column, the setCharacterStream() method seems to
transfer the data correctly. When I try to search this column
using the interMedia contains() function, I get strange
results. If I run my search on Oracle 8.1.6 for Windows, the
results seem to be correct. If I run the same search on Oracle
8.1.7 for Linux, the results are usually incorrect. The same
searches seem to work correctly on both boxes when I change the
column type from long to clob. Using the clob type may not be
an option for me since the standard JDBC API's to transfer data
into internal clob fields are broken, and I may need to stick
with standard JDBC API's. My customer wishes to purchase a
version of Oracle for Linux that will allow us to implement the
search capability he requires. Any guidance would be greatly
appreciated.

I've finally solved it!
I downloaded the following jre from blackdown:
jre118_v3-glibc-2.1.3-DYNMOTIF.tar.bz2
It's the only one that seems to work (and god, have I tried them all!)
I've no idea what the DYNMOTIF means (apart from being something to do with Motif - but you don't have to be a linux guru to work that out ;)) - but, hell, it works.
And after sitting in front of this machine for 3 days trying to deal with Oracle's, frankly PATHETIC install, that's so full of holes and bugs, that's all I care about..
The one bundled with Oracle 8.1.7 doesn't work with Linux redhat 6.2EE.
Don't oracle test their software?
Anyway I'm happy now, and I'm leaving this in case anybody else has the same problem.
Thanks for everyone's help.

Hi Steve
Many thanks for that. Could I ask that
this kind of thing goes in the release
readme also.

Too many recursive statements in PRO*C in comparing to SQLPLUS for Intermedia Index.

Hi,
I hope someone can help about this Problem. I don't know ehther its Intermedia Index or Database Problem...
The following Query;
SELECT SCORE(1),D.DOCUMENT_ID,DOCU_DATE_NUM,DOC_TYPE_ID
FROM
DOCUMENT D WHERE CONTAINS(SEARCH_INDEX,:b1,1) > 0 ORDER BY SCORE(1) DESC,
DOCU_DATE_NUM DESC
takes approx 7 sec in SQLPLUS , but in PRO*C it takes approx 55 sec. They call the same PL/SQL Stored Proc including the SQL above returning REF Cursor.
In PROC*C running Program the Trace file contains 139 Statements of:
SELECT/*+INDEX(T "DR$DOCXML_IX$X")*/ DISTINCT TOKEN_TEXT FROM "GETINFO"."DR$DOCXML_IX$I" T WHERE TOKEN_TEXT LIKE :lkexpr and TOKEN_TYPE NOT IN (1, 2, 5)
but in SQLPLUS generated Trace File it has only 18 of the Statement.
The TKPROF Report for PRO*C is:
SELECT SCORE(1),D.DOCUMENT_ID,DOCU_DATE_NUM,DOC_TYPE_ID
FROM
DOCUMENT D WHERE CONTAINS(SEARCH_INDEX,:b1,1) > 0 ORDER BY SCORE(1) DESC,
DOCU_DATE_NUM DESC
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
Parse 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
Execute 1 33.37 33.72 3 94 0 0
Fetch 44 0.04 0.04 29 69 4 43
total 46 33.41 33.76 32 163 4 43
For SQLPLUS:
SELECT SCORE(1),D.DOCUMENT_ID,DOCU_DATE_NUM,DOC_TYPE_ID
FROM
DOCUMENT D WHERE CONTAINS(SEARCH_INDEX,:b1,1) > 0 ORDER BY SCORE(1) DESC,
DOCU_DATE_NUM DESC
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
Parse 1 0.01 0.01 0 0 0 0
Execute 1 4.36 4.37 0 0 0 0
Fetch 44 0.02 0.02 10 44 0 43
total 46 4.39 4.40 10 44 0 43
Why is there so much difference? Even if they both do HARD Parse for the SQL above or run the same Stored Proc many times with "ALTER SESSION SET SESSION_CACHED_CURSORS=10", the difference in Time is the same.
Can someone help about this, I think it is an important Tuning Problem for Intermedia Index or ORACLE Bug maybe...

Hi,
Thanks for answering.
Yes I'm sure , both of them are using the same bind variables and it is:
(FUZZY($INTERNATIONAL) AND FUZZY($JOURNAL) AND FUZZY($ELECTRONICS) AND FUZZY($COMMUNICATIONS)) WITHIN SERIES_TITLE';
The same Query takes too long in Unix SQL*PLUS (~ 54 secs) also, but in Windows SQL*PLUS its faster (~ 7 secs).
Bu t if I chabe the Bind Variable as :
STR := '(($INTERNATIONAL OR ?INTERNATIONAL) AND ($JOURNAL OR ?JOURNAL) AND ($ELECTRONICS OR ?ELECTRONICS) AND ($COMMUNICATIONS OR ?COMMUNICATIONS)) WITHIN SERIES_TITLE';
then its in both Environment faster and nearly the same. But its not the same as the previous one.
I think the problem is when using the search as ?$<Word> (Fuzzy Stem together). But not everytime. Do you think its a Bug?

Intermedia problem after upgrade Portal 3.0.7 to 3.0.9

Hello,
I had several reports in Portal 3.0.7 with embedded Intermedia data ORDSYS.ORDIMAGE - they worked fine in Portal 3.0.7. After I upgraded iAs from 1.0.2.0 to 1.0.2.2 and Portal to 3.0.9. in all my reports I see only AAAHLOAADAAAAIFAAG instead of images. The same situation if I create new report with ORDIMAGE data.
Have anybody met this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Egor.

It is a bug that has been identified and and rectified. I am sorry there are no workarounds. I am afraid you will have to
wait till the next release to solve your problem.
Regards,
Sunil.

Intermedia in Portal not working...

Hi!
I have installed the latest release of Portal with the latest patch (3.0.9.8.1) on a 8.1.7.2.1 database. Trying to create an intermedia text index gives the following result:
An unexpected error has occurred (WWS-32100)
An unexpected error has occurred (WWS-32100)
ORA-29855: ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine

Any comments?
I've searched Metalink but have not yet found a working solution.

Ok...
I've since tried to do the following:
Fresh install of Oracle 8.1.7.1.1 and 9iAS 1.0.2.2 (with patch 3.0.9.8.1) on a w2k laptop with 512 Mb RAM. All done by the book (done this more than 20 times on different machines and platforms).
Loaded the latest MyCompany demo. No problem besides some problems (bugs) with provider timouts making the demo unusable.
Then tried to create a intermedia index (done both via portal and manual via sqlplus). No errors!
Searching the index however does display som odd results if it displays anything.
What are we doing here? Manufacturing bugs? Downgrading? How does new releases get tested? Do they...
How can a bug be known for more than a month whitout a fix? Are'nt interMedia a core function in our platform? Mentioned in every presentation regarding Portal...
We keep bashing Microsoft for the DLL-hell...what are we doing? The same thing but loaded into the database.
Exhausted from patching and installing...

Intermedia search in mixed language CAs

Here is an additional problem, arising when using Intermedia on
CA containing documents in multiple languages.
If choosing not to declare the language, so using a default
English definition even for non English documents, Intermedia
will not be able to use properly the stem operator (it will
always apply the English one).
If adding management of multiple languages, in addition to the
problems exposed in a question already submitted to this forum,
it will be mandatory to specify the language, so to search either
in documents belonging to a language or in the others, with the
proper usage of stem operator, but without the possibility to
perform a multi-language search (many times people are interested
in searching with language-neutral keywords, this setting will
make this impossible).
Is there anything available to solve the problem? Thanks.

Johan,
Are you using 306? There was bug in 306 where users were not able to search for swedish characters in "Simple" search, but were able to in "Advanced" search.
This issue has been resolved in 308 release.

8i intermedia ORA-03113 ORA-07445 CTX$N

We get the occasional ORA-03113 end of file communication error along with a trace file with ORA-07445. On looking at the CTX$N - described as the negative list table I found it had quite a few entries (nearly 10,000). When I rebuilt the index the problem went away and the CTX$N table was empty. Clearly it gets written to during the course of time. Does anyone know any details or have any suggestions as to if/when large numbers of entries might cause this sort of failure.

In the last couple of days we have started seeing ORA-03113 on some interMedia queries that lead me to think we're running into bug 1517789 (8.1.7.0.0 on NT4WSSP6a). The bug is supposed to be taken care of in the 8.1.7.1b patchset, but I haven't yet found the patch for NT. Does anybody have more information or a link to the patch?
Interestingly, the number of rows in the table (in the hundreds), rows in the DR$ tables (a few thousand), and number of hits (hundreds) are small. It does respond to the "well, don't do that" workarounds mentioned in the bug discussion, though--changing the contains from '%' to a couple of characters preceeding the '%'.
Any information appreciated

Oracle Portal with Intermedia Searching

I had installed Oracle9iAS Portal and Intermedia. Then, I created a simple Content Area and added some items there, like Word Documents, HTML files, etc.
Now, when I try to find a word using the default Portlet "Basic Search" and it returns "no data found". But, if I use the "Advanced Search" it returns the items correctly.
I'm using "Brazilian-Portuguese" language and I think the problem is it. Can I modify the structure of these SQL codes (used from "Basic Search" portlet)?
Any idea is good for me. Thanks!

Enrique,
see metalink for bug 1679678 . The workaround is for dutch, but you should be able to make it work in barzilian-portuguese. The side-effect is that searching the online-help becomes impossible ;-(
Another workaround is to copy the source of the HTML-form of the search portlet into a HTML portlet and add the hidden inputfield p_language . See the HTML-source of the advanced search for the exact line for your language.
Regards,
Ton

Intermedia Image Analysis cant find DLL

Win2k, Oracle 8.1.6EE. Fresh installations.
With a new installation of Oracle, create a SHARED database using connection pooling etc. On another identical machine also create a standard default database from the CD.
On both the standard default database and the shared one, can set the properties of images in ORDVIR objects.
Only on the default can I analyse the images. On the shared I get the following error:
err:ORA-06520: PL/SQL: Error loading external library
ORA-06522: Unable to load
DLL at 10000100
I've not changed the SQLNET, TNSNAMES or LISTENER since the setup did it for me as it looks OK, and as I say - works for setting the properties, just not the image analysis.
Any ideas?

Thanks, Jason.

Thanks - this does appear to be the problem.
I can reproduce this affect on any clean machine with a fresh install so there is obviously an Oracle bug here.
Running the command
select FILE_SPEC from all_libraries where library_name = 'ORDVIRLIBS';
gives the output
C:\Oracle\Ora81\lib\libordvir8.so
for any non-default installation of a database created using the DBCA which uses InterMedia&Virage.
The file libordvir8.so doesn't exist.
It should have been oraordvir8.dll in the bin directory which does exist.
Thanks,
Jason.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by lguros():
You may want to do a
select library_name from all_libraries where library_name = 'ORDIMLIBS';
and
select library_name from all_libraries where library_name = 'ORDVIRLIBS';
and make sure the FILE_SPEC field is valid and points to a correct shared object or DLL.
If you DB location was moved, these will no longer be valid.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

ERR: Intermedia Searches in Portal

Currently we are able to perform one search with Intermedia, it works great. Then, if we try to perform additional searches we get one of several errors. After about half an hour of not searching, but making no other changes to the server - we can do our one search again.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Wes,
You're hitting bug 1548589. As a workaround, set the 'Enable Connection Pooling' to No for the Database Access Descriptor. Go to http://<yourhost.domain:port>/pls/admin_/ - click on "Gateway Database Access Descriptor Settings" to access your DAD settings.
This workaround could affect Portal performance, especially if you have a large number of users connecting. You can expect a fix in the 3.0.8 release at the end of January.
Regards,
Jerry
