Intermedia Search in Portal

Hi,
I enabled the interMedia text search in Portal. It works on the
documents that I've already added, but not those I added after
the document index have been created.
If I drop the index and create again, it works. Does it mean
that after I have added documents, I have to re-create the index?
Can I set up an automatical job to do this or programmatically?
Thanks.

You have to sync' the index. Try posting your question on the
Portal forum so you know how to do it from the Portal
environment.

    my database version is 9.0.1.1.1 and the version of intermedia text installed is 8.1.7. as i came to know that error might be due to external procedure calls. i checked the tnsnames and listener .ora files in my database home. i have extproc_connection_data entry in the tnsnames.ora. tnsping on extproc_connection_data is working fine.
    but when i try to connect as system/manager@extproc_connection_data it throws a error. what might be the problem. can u help me out in this????

  • 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.

  • InterMedia Searches

    Are interMedia searches limited to the content a portal user has access? For example, a document 'ABC.doc' is loaded that only group 'A' has permission to see. A member of group 'B' does a search for something that would normally include 'ABC.doc'. Do the search results include an 'ABC.doc' link?
    Thanks.

    Nope. Search results are returned only for documents that you have access to.

  • Problem in using Intermedia search  with Oracel 9i DB on Red hat Linux

    Hi,
    I am unable to search a particular text in a blob using Intermedia search feature.I am using Oracle 9i (9.0.2 version)mounted on Red Hat Linux OS.
    It works well on a Windows 2k OS.
    To be more precise the following query fails when I pass the INSO_FILTER as the parameter.
    "CREATE INDEX WM_WORKDETAILIDX ON WM_WORKDETAIL (WM_ITEMDATA) INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT Parameter(‘CTXSYS.INSO_FILTER’)".
    Any Help towards it is highly appreciated.
    thanks & regards /Ravi

    Did you check the script to try to see what it was/is doing?

  • Is it possible to integrate Oracle intermedia search into apex ?(1)

    Or do something similar manually yourself in oracle xe ?(2)
    (1)I've been reading through part of the documentation of the intermedia search, and find it quite intresting. Better to use that if one can, then to have to do that it manually or yourself. But all I read is about JSP and PSP, and I guess PSP's are used by apex, but I was wondering if there was any way, to integrate intermedia search into apex, so that one can lookup say mp3, video files and images and display them in apex as well. Images may take some work but would I suppose be possible.
    However for the other two you need also player software to play both of them. As far as I know this is not integrated into Apex, but could possibly be provided by using the player integrated with a webbrowser, and by linking it to apex. So the browser is launched and plays the video or the audio file or alternatively a player is launched that allows to do that. But correct me if I'm wrong.
    (2) Alternatively I was wondering if one could do this, manually in Oracle XE, but then manually, by making tables with blobs and putting the files in there, and then finding somehow a way to get them played by a player, or to have them be put in a directory, and/or erased from that directory, and modify the player, or let it be activated and controlled by some kind of script to look for new files, and then play them off . Could this be done, by adding a parameter new_file_to_play to a message passed to the player, or the program governing the players behavior ?
    I know this sound difficult, and it probably is, but it would have its benefits. I suppose a simple answer would by, why not use oracle 10g with intermedia search ? Well because although I expect this to be the preferable choice, the license is rather expensive for me, and if I could get a rudimentary version working on XE, even having to do it myself, and writing the code as well,
    it would be ok.
    I just wonder could one not, make a table, with a nr, a blob, and then the specific fields for the specific information of that type, and then use a extraction program that extracts that information from a file, and puts it in a xml or csv file, so that say after the images were uploaded, one can load the details in as well ?
    It is more work, more complicated, and not as easy to use, but it could work I suppose.
    Any comments are welcome.
    Best Regards,
    Floris

    You should be able to add a menu option to Oracle E-Business Suite that just calls out to the URL of your ADF 11g application.

  • How to implement google search in portal application

    Hi,
      I am using  "http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl" file to implement google search in portal application. but i am not able to get the search result. how to implement google search. is this "http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl" is vaild now ?. how to achieve the soultion.
    Regards,
    Shanthakumar.

    Hi Shanthakumar,
    The "GoogleSearch.WSDL" is no longer available as google has replaced it with the new AJAX based searching and they have eventually removed it from public use as well from 7th September 2009. So, I would imagine you would not be able to use the earlier WSDL file for google search. You might have to look in using the new "AJAX Search API". For more information have a look the following links. You can notice "No Longer Available" at the top of the page.

  • How to optimise the intermedia search query  when using contains?

    HI there,
    I have a query to search my database in two tables on eight columns. So that I have eight indexes which are in a different tablespace. Now I have written a query like
    select * from table1,table2 where
    contains(col1,'wordlist1', 1)>0 and
    contains(col2,'wordlist2', 2)>0 and
    contains(col8,'wordlist2', 8)>0 ;
    When I tried to execute this query, my databae is getting very very slow. As soon as I started the database its working fine, with in five munites of continuous checking, the database going to be slow. So
    How can I optimise my query? Is there any better way to search the database using intermedia?
    Any help or any sites list on intermedia searching utilities, other than the Oracle documentation is thankful.
    waiting...
    khaleel

    Thank you Thomas,
    I need some more from you...
    If I have 8 tables for 8 columns, then how do i proceed?
    Also could u tell me some query optimization techniques while working with intermedia text.
    Thanks you once again,
    waiting...
    Khaleel Hi Khaleel,
    I think this depends on your data model (relationship between the tables) and how you like to search later.
    The optimization begins also with the create index statement (memory clause and storage clause).
    If you like me to help I need more information about your hardware, os, datamodel and what kind of searches you will have later.
    Cheers,
    Thomas

  • Difference between Oracle Ultra Search and Intermedia Search

    hi,
    Can any one please tell me how Oracle Ultra Search is Different from Intermedia Search .from an article i came to know that Ultra search helps you to search dataq in Multiple RDBMS ,documents,URLs etc . but i think these options are also there in Intermedia
    regds
    sangeeth

    These are Oracle Text questions. Intermedia Text is now Oracle Text and has it's own forum. Please post Oracle Text qestions in the Oracle Text Forum where you will get a better, quicker answer. The Oracle Text forum is frequently monitored by Oracle text experts, this forum may be occasionally scanned by these experts, or not at all.

  • Intermedia Search...

    I have a problem searching for subclasses.
    I created an object with a subobject. In this subobject I store a document.
    As I can see from intermedia4s log files, the files has been indexed.
    But I can4t find it with der search-APIs or with the WebUI.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Are you using a subclass of DOCUMENT to store
    the document ? If you are using search API to
    search, can you post the code segment where
    you are building the search tree (WHERE clause of the search).
    A code sample showing interMedia search is
    posted in the following thread :

  • Quick search in portal ?

    hi experts ,
      can anybody tell me . What is quick search in portal , is it differ from TREX and  Enterprise Search ?
      how to enable this in portal , provide me the steps ..
    Regards,
    Arpit

    Hello Arpit,
    The Quick Search option that is displayed on Portal Masthead display, is basically the default search provided by EP 6.0 and higher versions. The thing is that to get the desired results in the search made through this quick search we need to perform some Indexing and classification on the Portal content, which can be collaborated to either TREX search or Enterprise Search.
    Means, the search functionality and principles can be of TREX and Enterprise search, and the Indexing and classification can also be used for this Quick search option in portal.
    FYI - [Quick Search error when used with TREX|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ef/e1514131374c0de10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm]

  • 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.

    Ton

  • Searchs in Portal doesn't search inside the document

    My searchs in oracle portal doesn't search inside the documents. It only works in txt documents, but not in word docuements, excel documents, etc...
    Patch 3.0.9.8.2 Database Oracle 9i 9.0.1.3.1

    I assume that you are using Oracle (Intermedia) Text functionality. Without this searching within documents is not supported anyway. In which case you need to make sure that your indexes are being syncronized regularly (see the configuration guide on how this is done) and that there are no indexing errors for your DOC index - WWSBR_DOC_CTX_INDX. To determine this, look at the the view CTX_USER_INDEX_ERRORS.

  • Using intermedia search on file system

    I know it is possible to intermedia index documents stored on a file system.
    Is it possible to integrate this search into the standard search facility in portal ?
    ps, we don't want to use ifs in this case.

    Intermedia only indexes documents stored in the database - today. Look for a new feature in the Oracle9i Database that extends Intermedia indexing to file system-based content. In the meantime, check out our search partners Verity, Autonomy and Altavista and their portlets at: http://www.oracle.com/portals/partners/ppi/index.html?comp1.html
