Full text search from external application
I've a requrement to seach (full-text) for documents kept at a UCM server from an outside application (say Java) . I've enabled full-text seach on the UCM server.
Could anyone please guide me the process I need to go through for this.
How could I use the wsdl provided for search for this purpose.
Thanks in advance,
AD
Hi, ani_datta...
I need to do the same thing.
Did you solve this problem?
If yes, what did you do?

External URL Mapping and Full-Text Search Generation
I have a dilemma,
I can map external URL all fine e.g.
<map version="1.0">
<mapID target="Welcome" url="http://docweb.net/help/test.html"/>
</map>
but the html files are not contained in the local directory, and thus the jhindexer is unable to (as far as i know anyway) generate full-text search using the externally linked html files
also from using a decompiler I have found that you can "force" it to generate the help for external urls (as the indexer prefixes all urls with the "file:" protocol, but I can only get this to work under debug mode, else it gives a heapSpace exception, so I wish to avoid having to do anymore unneccesary digging/decompiling.
Also just as a gripe, why is most of the java help source code unavailable, and the Indexer seems to be very inflexible (ontop of not having any documentation)That's the way it worked in X4 and later versions up but not including RH8. RH8 includes phrase searching in webhelp.

Full-text search not available after upgrade from SQL 2008 R2 Std to SQL 2012 Std
We upgraded our production SQL Server from 2008 R2 Std to 2012 Std last week, and the installation logs show everything was successful, but now we are unable to do any searches against our full-text indexes. The resulting error is as follows:
"Full-Text Search is not installed, or a full-text component cannot be loaded."
When executing the query "SELECT FULLTEXTSERVICEPROPERTY('ISFULLTEXTINSTALLED')", the result is "0". The "Full-Text Daemon Launcher service is also running. When running installation again to add the feature, it shows
"Full-Text and Semantic Extractions for Search" as being installed and unavailable for selection in the list of features to add. As a side note, we did the same upgrade in our identical QA environment before production and everything was successful
and full-text searches are working correctly. We have run the "Repair" routine in the SQL Installation Center and it did not correct the problem.
The full-text catalogs still appear when browsing through the GUI in SSMS or querying sys.fulltext_indexes and sys.fulltext_index_columns. It is not possible to view the properties of the catalog in SSMS, though, as the GUI throws an error and an empty
dialog box is shown. Any other thoughts?
Thanks,
AJI have no idea what is going, but assuming that it is a little pressing to get this fix, I think the best path in this case is to open a case with Microsoft.

Hiding Topics from full text search in WebHelp
Is there a way to hide topics from full text search in a
WebHelp build?Peter, thanks for pointing to the solution. I figured it
might be something like substituting the FTS index file in the
build, but it is nice to have a documented procedure from the
horse's mouth... -
Problem with full-text search in RH8
Hi All,
I've just upgraded from RH6 to RH8 (laptop running Windows XP SP3; RH6 still present on the computer but the RH8 setup program did not seem to have a problem with that: identified an earlier version was present, asked for its serial number, and then proceeded).
RH8 is working just fine, except for one thing: in the WebHelp output I generate, the Search tab displays: "Error: Failed to initialize database".
As a matter of fact, the generation details in RH8 output view state:
Processing Full-text-search data...
Finished processing Full-Text-Search data in 0 sec(s)
This is the case for legacy projects that RH8 upgraded from RH6, but also when I create a project from scratch in RH8.
Now, to add to my confusion, before buying RH8, I had downloaded RH8 trial version and installed it on a spare computer (so it would not interfere with my RH6 installation and projects). The tests with this version were OK (hence the decision to buy the upgrade), and guess what: there was no problem whatsoever with full-text search, neither on legacy projects nor on new projects.
So before I go into the pains of uninstalling / reinstalling (hello registry, it's me again, trying to clean things up ;-), I'd like to know if anyone has any idea why this is happening.
Just to be clear: The RH8 version I bought and installed was a new download, distinct from the initial trial download.
The 3 differences between the trial version and the current working version are:
Trial was on a Vista computer (working version is on XP SP3)
Trial did not have RH6 present on the computer
Trial was version 8.0.0.203, whereas the working version is 8.0.2.208 (immediately after it was installed, RH prompted me to install the updates)
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.Hi All,
Just for the record, IT people here were eventually able to have RH8 full-text search feature working on my laptop by:
1/ Installing an XP virtual machine from scratch, and then installing RH8 on it (we created a small project and generated the webhelp output, just to make sure the search feature did work in that environment).
2/ Using a software virtualization application to capture that RH8 install and deploy it on my laptop.
The problem is not solved, because we still don't know what caused it (conflicting DLLs?), but it looks like we have a workaround - although certainly not a quick and easy one ;-) -
TREX Full-Text search on Solution Directory
Hi Experts,
I have a problem with Full-Text search on the Solution Directory. Basically it doesn't work at all.
In transaction SOLUTION_MANAGER I choose a solution and then ->Operation Setup -> Solution Settings. At that point from the top menu I choose Solution Directory -> Find Document...
When I trigger the search using normal attributes the process finds documents related to this Solution without any problem. However, when I search using the "Full-Text Search" feature, the process doesn't find any document at all even though they exist.
Why is this functionality not working? Is this problem related to TREX?
What should i do to fix it? How do I create an index for these documents?
I haven't been able to solve this issue as TREX seams to work fine... can anybody help me out?
Any idea?
Many thanks,

Full text search with XML input in Oracle
Hi,
I need to develope a web application which can do full text search for a library. We will use XML as the input data format and stored XML file in Oracle. How can I do full text search to the XML according todifferent tags or elements. e.g search from title or from article.
Do not only convert XML to Ascii and do the full text search. It should utilize the XML tag and structure.
InterMedia text in 8i or Oracle text in 9i? Or any other toolkit?

AIR and full-text search in SQLite
Hi,
can I use full-text indexing capabilities of SQLite with my
AIR app?
I've created a virtual table in database using fts3 module
(via command line of sqlite.exe). But when I try to insert a row
into this table, I get an error message like
...SQLError: 'Error #3115: SQL Error.', details:'no such
module: fts3', operation:'execute', detailID:'2501'...
Does AIR Data library support FTS in SQLite?Yes, Adobe has disabled loadable modules but that does not
prevent them from including FTS3 in AIR's SQLite.
PLEASE, statically compile in both the FTS3 module and the
R*Tree Spatial Index module.
The beauty of AIR is that you can have an application that
works offline (duh!, right?). When it's online, you can do a full
text search in it, using the powerful server-side database's
functionality. Now when you go offline, you're completely crippled!
... Because Adobe didn't put FTS3 in SQLite.
' Same with Spatial functionality.
I'd sure like to know how companies make these decisions.
>sigh< It is EXTREMELY frustrating to be limited by
apparently arbitrary decisions like these. I sure hope this was not
motivated by a desire to "encourage" people to use their commercial
productions such as BlazeDS. I'd like to think better of Adobe than
that.
Again, PLEASE include these modules in the next release.

Did you check the fulltext log files for more details about the errors. If the filter isn’t working, there should be errors in the error log file.

TREX/Content Server: Full text searches not working
I've setup TREX and Content Server in a sandbox environment and have been trying to get my head around DMS. I've completed what I've believed are the required steps (outlined below) and I have submitted 12 documents of various types into the respository. I'm able to perform meta data searches but not full text searched. Any ideas what I might have missed?
Much thanks!!!!
/Greg
0. Defined connection to TREX Server: TREX_42 (SM59); Using TREXADMIN all services are green.
1. "Define Document Area" - DMS is present; assumed I would use this one.
2. "Defined Indexing Readiness" - selected "Index Release" & "Classify" for DMS; set "Search Srv" to DMS_TEST
3. "Define Content Respository" - Created Z_CR_001 and maintained it as follows:
- Documentation Area: Document Management System
- Storage Type: HTTP content server
- HTTP Server: srv-sptxd2-dal.intervoice.int (content server)
- Port: 1090
- HTTP Script: ContentServer/ContentServer.dll
- Physical Path: /usr/sap/IRD/SYS/global/
4. "Define Content Categories" - Created ZCSSTRUCT; maintained as follows:
- Document Area: DMS
- Content Rep: Z_CR_001
5. Checked CSADMIN for Z_CR_001 - All Green
6. Went into SKPR07 (monitoring tab); entered DMS_PCD1 and "Indexing possible", "Auto indexing" and "DocArea activated" is all green.
7. Went into SMRO
- created SSR: "Search Server ID" = DMS_TEST, "Search engine" = DRFUZZY
- Verified "RFC Destinations"; passed tests; all green.
8. Went into SKPR07; using DMS_PCD1 as document class.
- executed "Clean up table entries"
- deselected "Limited to selected language"
- executed reindex. "Copied successfully from search engine"
- Selected the created index category
- Set the "Document area" indicator
- execute "Trigger process"; 12 documents referenced
9. Going into TREXADMIN I can see the created index; however the document count = 0. Also there is no queue created -- should there be?

Full text search in local CD-ROM app
Hi all,
I want to develop a local application deploying in CD-ROM,
and I want to use about 1.000 PDF documents.
I thing that it's a good idea to convert the PDFs to SWFs
using the FlashPaper.
My answer is how can I make a full text search using the
contents of these files. Is it possible?
Thanks in advanceHi,
We can create a custom tool for you that will enable you to
search text in
ALL your pdf files. That's not a problem.

Full-Text Search has not worked since we upgraded to 2012
I have a filestream database and table. Our full-text searches have always worked until we upgraded to SQL 2012 in December. Now, no file that has been uploaded since December is searchable. What has gone wrong here. It should have been
a clean upgrade. We are not getting any error messages. We are just not getting any records returned when we search on a word that we know are in the documents we've uploaded since December (for instance, the word 'aluminum').
Filestream is enabled for the instance.
A full-text catalog exists and contains a full-text index (the same one we've always had). Full-text indexing is ENABLED.
I've tried rebuilding the catalog and the index. I've tried to do a FULL POPULATION on the table.
We haven't changed our queries nor the way the files are uploaded.
Nothing works. I have been a database administrator since the SQL 2005 days and I have never seen anything like this.
Please help.Hi GINGER PIERCE,
Since the issue regards SQL Server Search. I will help you post the question in the related forums. It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.
According to your description, in theory , if you can do a full-text search for SQL Server 2008, when upgrading the SQL Server version from 2008 to 2012, the Full text indexing feature should be run well in SQL Server 2012 databases. If not , you can try
to restore your database from SQL Server 2008 to SQL Server 2012, create an new Full-Text Catalog and Index on the table or view in the database, and then use Full Text Index to search words, phrases and multiple forms of word or phrase via FREETEXT() and
CANTAINS() with “and” or “or” operators. check if it is normal that the full-text search feature is enabled in the SQL Server 2012 instance. For more information , see:
Full Text Search step by step in SQL Server 2012.
Note: In SQL Server 2012 SP1 , the server will report that Full Text Search is not supported in this edition of SQL Server when it clearly is. The workaround is to create the initial catalog by using a T-SQL query:
CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG
In addition, since it is a fileStream database, we need to verify if you do Full Text Searches on documents in FileTables, if yes, you should enable FileStream database for your SQL Server, and enable FileTable options for the database. For more information,
see:
Full Text Searches on Documents in FileTables.

How to do full text search in mobile apps?
Hi,
I want to be able to use the FTS module in sqlite to do leverage the powerful full text capability in it. But I was sad to learn that module are disabled in AIR (Has anybody gotten FTS module to work in AIR?)
Is there any way I can use the FTS module with SQLite. Android native developers use this all the time so I think not having this is a serious limitation for text based apps.
My alternatives right now are to:
Write my own indexer and scorer (lots of work)
Do full text search on the server side (breaks offline capability)
I hate both options. I am leaning toward righting my own indexer but what do you guys suggest I do?I've got nearly the same concern. I want to add full text search on a mobile and desktop application, without any server.
I read in archived discussion that the FTS support was already considered before air 2.0.
Will we see it soon?
