How to view crawled documents of file system in the browser using sharepoint search

Hi,
I think this should be pretty obvious. However, somehow I am not able to do it. Here is what i am working on:
I created a folder on my D:\ drive on the SharePoint server. Added a few word documents there.Created a new content source in my Search Service Application and configured it to crawl above folder from file system. Ran a full crawl. All the documents are
crawled successfully. I can see the documents on the search page. Now, the problem is:
How can I open this document directly in the browser? Becuase the path i get is of the folder on the server. If this isn't possible then I think,there is no use of this feature. I just see the title and a short description of the document.
But, I think it should be possible. I just don't know how to do it.
Any ideas will be highly appreciated.

Hi Mohan,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to open the documents in file shares in the browser by clicking the link in search results.
As the files are not stored in SharePoint, so we need to configure Office Web Apps for the documents to open the files in the browser.
Here is a similar thread for you to take a look:

  • Opening a Document (.doc, .xls, .pdf) in the browser using an action

    Hello
    I´m using JavaScript to open a document in the browser using the property Onclick from Command Button: onclick="#{backing_archivos.rutaArchivo}"
    and in the backing_archivos.rutaArchivo I have the String window.open("file://c://tmp/document.pdf", "title page", "top=100, left=100")
    but the browser doesn't open anything.
    What can I do?
    Thank.

    You can do an external file by using a stream and and the response object. I have this in a backing bean, and it gets called with a command button.
    public String runQCReport_action()
    BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
    OperationBinding operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("PromotionRequestQCReport");
    Object result = operationBinding.execute();
    FileInputStream bis = null;
    ServletOutputStream bos = null;
    FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)context.getExternalContext().getResponse();
    response.setContentType("application/pdf");
    response.setHeader("Content-disposition","inline=filename=file.pdf");
    try {
    File fileName = new File("applications/reports/output/PromotionRequestQCReport.pdf");
    bis = new FileInputStream(fileName.getAbsolutePath());
    bos = response.getOutputStream();
    byte[] buff = new byte[2048];
    int bytesRead;
    while (-1 !=(bytesRead = bis.read(buff,0,buff.length)))
    bos.write(buff,0,bytesRead);
    //response.getOutputStream().write(yourdata[]);
    response.getOutputStream().flush();
    response.getOutputStream().close();
    context.responseComplete();

    Hello Tao,
    The parameter

    may help you to access the pictures without any db-access.
    The following two links may help you to understand the other possibilities as well.
    The threads are covering BSP, but it should be useful for WebDynpro as well.

    Hi all, my question is: How to view and manage hidden files in folders?. I see hidden files in other computer but no in my Mac.

    Most hidden files are hidden for a reason.   Tampering with them can seriously affect the stability of the system.

    Are you using Time Machine on the drive? You can't view the contents of its backup database and the only way to access the info is directly from the Time Machine app.

  • How do I determine if my file system is case-sensitive before I buy Photoshop CS5?

    How do I determine if my file system is case-sensitive before I buy Photoshop CS5? I currently have Mac OSX 10.5.8 with an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor and 4GB of Memory.. Adobe says the following requirements are needed..
    2GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
    1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with qualified hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card, 16-bit color, and 256MB of VRAM
    Some GPU-accelerated features require graphics support for Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0
    I don't know if I have a "hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card" or "256MB or VRAM".. I've never heard of "VRAM" before and the last bullet points is just as confusing. The last thing I want to do is buy this program and discover my Mac Book is just a tad bit to old for it, I've already done that once with a video game.

    Disk Utility highlighting the drive or partition & clicking the blue Info icon may report it, but since I don't have Case Sensitive I can't tell for sure.
    A simple test would be to save a small txt doc as...
    test
    Then save to the place same as...
    TEST
    If both show on the Disk, then it is, if it asks to replace test with TEST then it isn't.

    Anybody knows if the source code of scadm tool is available somewhere ? (opensolaris etc. ?)
    I don't have any additional advice to offer other than asking that you to try the flash-update all over again,
    one more time, as if it were the beginning again.Yes but how because the SC is not discovered anymore by Solaris :
    "rmclomv: WARNING: DP_GET_SDP_VERSION failed, ret=4"
    "The SC hardware could not be initialized."
    Can you try to flash the mainalomfw ? Your log contained only the flash of the alombootfw !
    /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/scadm download alommainfw
    I guess jumper JP2 allows to recover from a failed flash by selecting the un-touched half the PROM.It does not work as the SC is not responding anymore to Solaris
    Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS 5.10 Generic January 2005
    v210:~#
    v210:~# cd /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/images
    v210:/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V210/lib/images# /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/scadm download alommainfw
    scadm: The SC hardware could not be initialized.
    v210:/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V210/lib/images#
    ERROR: ERROR: Unable to open the SC device.
    It's a pitty that obtaining OBP/ALOM updates requires a service contract. I got a V210 recently.
    Unfortunately both OBP and ALOM are the intial release 4.8.2 / 1.0.I agree but it's probably also because you need support in case it fails ;-)
    Thanks for your answers!

  • How/Where are Financial Reports Saved on the File System of the Server?

    We've recently lost a large chunk of our reports on our server. We can't figure out which directory location to restore in order to get those reports back. Where is the default directory for 11.1.2.2 Financial Reports? And in what format are those reports saved?

    The FR reports themselves are found in the Operating System (O/S) file system, but the EPM Workspace heirarchy (folders, tree, etc) are stored in the Hyperion BI+ repository database.
    On the O/S file system, the reports are stored in RM1 folder under "C:\oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\ReportingAnalysis\data\RM1\root" folder.
    The names of the reports located here are UUID (long identifiers - not the actual names).
    For example:
            when a report is created with the name"My report" in the Financial Reporting Studio, when logging into EPM Workspace it will be accessible within Financial Reports/folder name where it was saved.
            the actual report will be stored in a sub-folder of the RM1\root folder on file system.
                The name of the file will be a unique identifier (not the actual name of the report i.e. "My report")
                It will be generated "on the fly" based on various things such as the current date and time on the server (i.e 0000012f5af72b1a-0000-ec71-c0a8006c.00000130510b77bb-0000-5133-c0a8006c.1)
    The meta-data for that report ("My report", that is in the folder in Workspace, the modification date of the report, the permissions on that report, etc.) will be stored in the Hyperion BI+ DB as an object in an encrypted table. Financial Reporting knows what meta-data is in the Hyperion BI+ DB that matches the report, in the "RM1\root" folder because all the rows in the table for this object in the Hyperion BI+ DB that are related to "My report" will be referenced using the UUID of the file (e.g. 0000012f5af72b1a-0000-ec71-c0a8006c.00000130510b77bb-0000-5133-c0a8006c.1)
    Note: The location of RM1 folder differs with each installations' operating system.

  • How can one  read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.

    How can one read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.
    1. Excel File is on My PC.
    2. And I want to write a Stored Procedure or Package to do that.
    3. DataBase is on Other Server. Client-Server Environment.
    4. I am Using Toad or PlSql developer tool.

    If you would like to create a package/procedure in order to solve this problem consider using the UTL_FILE in built package, here are a few steps to get you going:
    1. Get your DBA to create directory object in oracle using the following command:
    create directory TEST_DIR as ‘directory_path’;
    Note: This directory is on the server.
    2. Grant read,write on directory directory_object_name to username;
    You can find out the directory_object_name value from dba_directories view if you are using the system user account.
    3. Logon as the user as mentioned above.
    Sample code read plain text file code, you can modify this code to suit your need (i.e. read a csv file)
    function getData(p_filename in varchar2,
    p_filepath in varchar2
    ) RETURN VARCHAR2 is
    input_file utl_file.file_type;
    --declare a buffer to read text data
    input_buffer varchar2(4000);
    begin
    --using the UTL_FILE in built package
    input_file := utl_file.fopen(p_filepath, p_filename, 'R');
    utl_file.get_line(input_file, input_buffer);
    --debug
    --dbms_output.put_line(input_buffer);
    utl_file.fclose(input_file);
    --return data
    return input_buffer;
    end;
    Hope this helps.

  • How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

    How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

    Shared how? The other users can read the documents or you all can read and write the documents?
    The first is easy just place the documents in /Users/Shared anyone can access the files there and the other users will be able to read them.
    The second is a bit trickier.

    Can you open large files on the drive with other programs?
    Are you running any drive compression or acceleration programs (some drives arrive with these installed)?
    Can you reformat the drive and try again?
    Hi Kirby,
    I attached the UltraMax Plus with a USB cable. The UltraMax powers the cable so power is not an issue. I can open other files. Also, there is 500GB of files on the drive so I cannot re-format it. Although, I noted I could import the entire Aperture Library. However, I do not want to create a duplicate on my machine because that would be defeating the purpose of the external drive.
