Oracle Text indexation problem

Hello all,
we recently migrate one of our database from oracle 10.2.0.2 to an Oracle 10.2.0.4, and since then, Oracle Text indexer engine is unable to work properly.
Indexing datas systematically result in the following error :
DRG-50857: oracle error in dreii0fsh
ORA-06550: line 1, column 106:
PLS-00302: component 'S_MODE' must be declared
ORA-06550: line 1, column 10:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
Note that datas that were indexed with the previous version of Oracle can still be found with "Select... where contains...", though new datas can't be indexed at all.
Can anybody help me with this issue ?

See on metalink:
'DRG-50857: oracle error in dreii0fsh' when creating TEXT index [ID 750898.1]
It seems you upgraded the binaries,but not Oracle Text itself.

Problem with oracle text indexes during import

We have a 9.2.0.6 database using oracle text features on a server with windows 2000 5.00.2195 SP4.
We need to export its data ( user ARIANE only ) and then import the result into another 9.2.0.6 database.
The import never comes to an end.
The only way to make it work is to use the "indexes=n" clause.
Then ( without the indexes ), we tried to create manually the oracle text indexes.
We get this error :
CREATE INDEX ARIANE.DOSTEXTE_DTTEXTE_CTXIDX ON ARIANE.DOSTEXTE (DTTEXTE)
INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT PARAMETERS('lexer ariane_lexer stoplist ctxsys.default_stoplist storage ariane_storage');
ORA-29855: erreur d'exécution de la routine ODCIINDEXCREATE
ORA-20000: Erreur Oracle Text :
DRG-10700: préférence inexistante : ariane_lexer
ORA-06512: à "CTXSYS.DRUE", ligne 157
ORA-06512: à "CTXSYS.TEXTINDEXMETHODS", ligne 219
We then tried to uninstall Oracle text and install it ( My Oracle Support [ID 275689.1] ). The index creation above still fails.
We also checked our Text installation and setup through My Oracle Support FAQ ( ID 153264.1 ) and everything seems ok.
Do we have to create some ARIANE* lexer preferences through specific pl/sql ( ctx_report* ? ) before importing anything from the ARIANE user ?
What do we need to do exactly when exporting data with oracle text features from one database to another given we used to restore the database through a copy of the entire windows files ?
Is there a specific order to follow to succeed an import ?
Thank you for your help.

Hi
index preferences are not exported, ie ariane_lexer + ariane_storage, only the Text index metada, thus the DRG-10700 from index DDL on target/import DB.
I recommend to use ctx_report.create_index_script on source/export DB, see Doc ID 189819.1 for details, export with indexes=N and then create text indexes manually after data import.

Oracle Text index hangs(Oracle 11g linux enterprise edition)

Hi guru,
One very criticial and showstopper issue coming in Oracle Text Indexing.
I have table ResourceTable(ResId,Contents blob ,docformat)
I am creating text index on Contents column by using follwing command:
create index [IndexName] on [TableName] (contents) indextype is ctxsys.context ('lexer mylex stoplist ctxsys.default_stoplist format column ISDOCFORMAT sync(every "sysdate+1/24") storage my_text_storage memory 200M')parallel 2
I found there is one document of text/html type which hangs oracle text indexing thread.Oracle doest not give any error message keep using CPU 100% and no progress.
I then create test table with same stucture and put this corrupted documet record in this table.and did indexing again but its not doing index /not ignoring it and hangs .We have also tried to use timeout feature of inso filter so that if such type of document comes at the time of indexing oracle text indexing process will bypass it after specific time interval but still same issue comes and oracle is not bypassing such faulty document.
This is realy show stopper issue and any kind of help will be greatly appricited.

You need to raise an SR with Oracle Support for this, and send them the file which is causing the hang. It should then be easy to investigate the problem and schedule a fix.
If you don't have a support contract, you could send the file to me and I'll raise a bug. However, if we fix it you won't be able to get the fix until it appears in the next downloadable version.

Help with creating oracle text index on 2 columns with partial html data

Hi,
I need to create an oracle text index on 2 columns.
TITLE - varchar(255) = contains plain text data
DESCRIPTION - CLOB = contains partial HTML data
This is what I created.
begin
ctx_ddl.create_preference ('Title_Description_Pref', 'MULTI_COLUMN_DATASTORE');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('Title_Description_Pref', 'columns', 'TITLE, DESCRIPTION');
end;
begin
ctx_ddl.create_preference ('bid_lexer', 'BASIC_LEXER');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('bid_lexer', 'index_stems', 'ENGLISH');
ctx_ddl.create_section_group('htmgroup', 'HTML_SECTION_GROUP');
end;
create index Bid_Title_Index on Bid(title) indextype is ctxsys.context parameters ('LEXER bid_lexer sync (every "sysdate+(1/24)")');
create index Bid_Title_Desc_Index on Bid(description) indextype is ctxsys.context parameters ('LEXER bid_lexer DATASTORE Title_Description_Pref sync (every "sysdate+(1/24)") filter ctxsys.null_filter section group htmgroup');
The problem is when I do a CONTAINS(description, '$(auction)')>0. I get results where the descriptions have the "auction" word (which is correct). But, the results also returned rows where the search word is inside an IMG tag. e.g. <img src="http://auction.de/120483" alt="Auction Logo"/>.
What I would like is to exclude rows where the search word is inside HTML tag attributes, results expected are rows having <a>Auction</a> or <p>For Auction</p> ... etc. Basically stripping the html tags and leave the text contents.
I'd appreciate some input.
Thanks,
Amiel

Oracle Text index

Hi,
I created an oracle text index on 10G database on a fairly large table (59 Mil recs) but when i go to Analyze it, i get the ora-29864 error message 'analyzing domain indexes marked LOADING/FAILED not supported'. The status of the index is valid. The index was created well over 24 hours ago. is it perhaps because the index is still loading?
Has anyone run across this problem?
Thanks

"ORA-29864: analyzing domain indexes marked LOADING/FAILED not supported
Cause: Tried to analyze a domain index which was marked as LOADING or FAILED.
Action: If the index was marked LOADING, wait till it is marked valid before retrying the analyze. If index was marked FAILED, drop it OR rebuild it and retry the analyze."

it works if you put an extra PARAMETERS clause at the end so the creation looks like:

How to compute a global SCORE over a few oracle text indexed tables?

Dear experts!
I want to search a website with Oracle Text. The website consists of four tables:
- site
- chapter
- text
- binaries
Each table has two or three columns which should be indexed with oracle text. So I have created a MULTI_COLUMN_DATASTORE oracle text index on each table - So I have four indexes on my website.
When I want to search over the website I have to join my 4 tables (4 contain clauses). So how do I get a global SCORE over these 4 contains clauses?
The next question is can I change the weight of my text indexes (useful for the search hit list)? For example the highest weight has the site index, the second highest weight the chapter index and so on?
Thanks
Markus

If it's a simple JOIN, then you could just add the scores for each CONTAINS clause
select score(1)+score(2)+score(3)+score(4)
from table1 t1,table2 t2, table3 t3,table4 t4
where [join conditions]
and contains(t1.col, 'xxx', 1) > 0 or
contains(t2, col, 'xxx', 2) > 0 or
... etc
then to change the weight you just add a multiplying factor.
Can't help thinking it's probably more complex than this, though.

Why oracle text index column taking long time

why oracle text index column is taking long time to return result.I created text index on a column if I run the query on a single table result is very fast.If I join table with other table (10 records only )
it is taking long time but in explain plan it is searching by index only.
I created this index for searching a varchar2 column,the data is comma seperated values like ( UK,US,IT,BR) and the table having records 20 lakhs.Normally if I query with like operater
( like '%US%' ) it is taking full table scan because I am using '%' both sides. Please help me on this regard how to search the data with less time. Here is may sample code and explain plan.

You have not formatted your code properly so we cannot see the query you're executing. Please put some line breaks in.
Secondly, how fresh are the statistics on those tables? Are you really returning one record out of twenty million?

Oracle Text Index Query

Hello
Had a query on oracle Text Index.
1. I have created a table with column ID as sequence & column description as Varchar2(500)
2. Inserted 3 records
3. I created the Oracle Text index on column "description" as INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
4. Run a select using "contains" , get the records as required.
5. I insert another new record & commit;
6. Run the same old query using contains but for the new records I get 0 records
7. Drop the Index and Recreate the index using same old index on column "description" as INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
8. Run the same old query using contains but for the new records and now I get the records as required.
Does that mean every time I insert new records I have to rebuild the Oracle Text Index ?
Your Help will be much appreciated
Regards
Harshad

You need to use some method of updating your index. You can drop and recreate or you can rebuild or you can use ctx_ddl.sync_index or you can include sync(on commit) in your parameters when you create the index or various other methods of periodic synchronization and optimization.

SMB Server using Oracle Text Index

Hi folks,
I am looking into IFS and can't find any info
on whether IFS is able to use the Oracle Text
indexing, when accessed through SMB (directory mount).
If I search for a file containing a given string
is that search executed within IFS and only the
resultset returned to the client, or is every
file read from IFS delivered to the client,
searched there and then thrown away if it doesn't
contain the string (rendering the Text Index useless)?
Does anybody have background info / experience with this?
Regards
Jan-Peter

Jan-Peter To answer your question, it would help to have a little more context (pardon the pun). Are you trying to (1) understand how the 9iFS Windows UI uses Oracle Text, or (2) are you trying to write a client application that somehow uses the Text index on 9iFS content?

Performance issue with Oracle Text index

Hi Experts,
We are on Oracle 11.2..0.3 on Solaris 10. I have implemented Oracle Text in our environment and I am facing a strange performance issue that is happening in our environment.
One sql having CONTAINS clause is taking forever - more than 20 minutes and still does not complete. This sql has a contains clause and an exists clause and a not exists clause.
Now if I remove the exists clause and a not exists clause , it completes fast. but with those two clauses it is just taking forever. It is late night so i am not able to post the table and sql query details and will do so tomorrow but based on this general description, are there any pointers for me to review?
sql query doing fine:
SELECT
    U.CLNT_OID, U.USR_OID, S.MAILADDR
FROM
    access_usr U
    INNER JOIN access_sia S
        ON S.USR_OID = U.USR_OID AND S.CLNT_OID = U.CLNT_OID
    WHERE U.CLNT_OID = 'ABCX32S'
    AND CONTAINS(LAST_NAME , 'TO%' ) >0
--sql query that hangs forever:
SELECT
    U.CLNT_OID, U.USR_OID, S.MAILADDR
FROM
    access_usr U
    INNER JOIN access_sia S
        ON S.USR_OID = U.USR_OID AND S.CLNT_OID = U.CLNT_OID
    WHERE U.CLNT_OID = 'ABCX32S'
    AND CONTAINS(LAST_NAME , 'TO%' ) >0
and exists (--one clause here wiht a few table joins)
and not exists (--one clause here wiht a few table joins);
--Now another strange thing I found is if instead of 'TO%' in this sql, if I were to use 'ZZ%' or 'L1%' it works fast but for 'TO%' it goes slow with those two exists not exists clauses!
I will be most thankful for the inputs.

Hi Barbara,
First of all, thanks a lot for reviewing the issue.
Unluckily making the change to empty_stoplist did not work out. I am today copying the entire sql here that has this issue and will be most thankful for more insights/pointers on what can be done.

                          AND UGX.INCLUDED = 1)
       AND CONTAINS (U.LAST_NAME, 'Bon%') > 0;
Like I said before if the EXISTS and NOT EXISTS clause are removed it works in sub-second. But with those EXISTS and NOT EXISTS CLAUSE IT TAKES ANY WHERE FROM 25 minutes to more than one hour.
NOte also that it was not TO% but Bon% in the CONTAINS clause that is giving the issue - sorry that was wrong on my part.

--now below is the code of the index:

CREATE INDEX ACCESS_USR_IDX4 ON ACCESS_USR
(LAST_NAME)
INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
PARAMETERS('LEXER cust_lexer WORDLIST cust_wl SYNC (ON COMMIT)');
The strange thing is that, like I said, If I remove the exists clause the query returns very fast. Also if I modify the query to use only one NOT EXISTS clause and remove the other EXISTS clause it returns in less than one second. Also if I remove the EXISTS clause and use only the NOT EXISTS clause it returns in less than 4 seconds. But with both clauses it runs forever!
When I tried to get dbms_xplan.display_cursor to get the query plan (for the case of both exists and not exists clause in the query), it said that previous statement's sql id was 0 or something like that so that I was not able to see the query plan. I will keep trying to get this plan (it takes 25 minutes to one hour each time but will get this info soon). Again any pointers are most helpful.

Oracle Text Index on Materialized View

Hello,
I have designed a search engine for an internet application.
We have different tables for our main business objects, the search is based on the content of all these dependent entities (Product, Company etc...)
So I have created a materialized view to embody this aggregation.
Then I have created a Multi column datastore index on top of the snapshot.
The search engine has to be refreshed automatically 3 times a day, and manually anytime.
This is achieved by executing a complete refresh on the view and rebuild the index, programmatically via Toplink (SqlCall).
The MV refresh looks like this :
alter index usr_batiprod.fullTextMulticolIdx rebuild
and the index rebuild:
begin
DBMS_MVIEW.REFRESH('FT_TEST','C');
end;
Everything was fine until now, we have had lots of tuning on the index side, the refresh process was working fine...
We have let the users access the engine since Thursday (the index had been created on the production environment a fews weeks ago) and since yesterday (or maybe before) we have been experiencing data incoherency on the index...
I've tracked down the pb to the Fulltext Search's refresh process (manual and automatic share the same code) that was crashing on the Materialized view refresh :
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-50610: internal error: drexdsync
DRG-50857: oracle error in drekrtd (lob erase)
ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for resource
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SNAPSHOT", line 794
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SNAPSHOT", line 851
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SNAPSHOT", line 832
ORA-06512: at line 2
Again, we had tested the functionality thoroughly and never experienced such behaviour before... even while refreshing the materialized view and the index 3 times (or more) a day..
Once I dropped the Oracle Text Index, I was able to refresh the MV again..
so it looks like the index was in some incoherent state and was holding a lock on the materialized view...
Maybe my Index refresh call is wrong, and a stronger load on the functionality leads quickly to this pb, I dont know..
I had always been a bit doubtful towards my index rebuild call, so Im thinking about using a more complete call :
alter index usr_batiprod.fullTextMulticolIdx rebuild parameters ('sync')
is it enough, or do I have to switch to a 'Oracle Text' specific call ?
Is there another possible reason for the MV lock ?
Thank you for your support
Best Regards
Olivier Cuzacq

MVs are constructed in different ways and have lots of different uses.
Why not just use MV as temp table for OT (Oracle Text) index?
Refresh MV OT_TEMP.
Delete all not matching rows from OT.
Insert all missing missing rows from OT_TEMP to OT.
sync OT index (online).
Query table OT.

Oracle Text Index Error - DRG-10700: preference does not exist: CTXSYS.DEFA

Hi we are having a Oracle 11g db.And we have installed CTX SYS package and provided the grants to the required schema.
But while creating the oracle text index, following error is thrown:
ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-10700: preference does not exist: CTXSYS.DEFAULT_LEXER
ORA-06512: at "CTXSYS.DRUE", line 160
ORA-06512: at "CTXSYS.TEXTINDEXMETHODS", line 365
Following grnats are given :
GRANT EXECUTE ON CTXSYS.CTX_DDL TO <schema_name>;
GRANT APPOWN TO <schema_name>;
GRANT CTXAPP TO <schema_name>;
I have verifyed the ctxsys.CTX_PREFERENCES view which is having an entry as :
SELECT PRE_OWNER, PRE_NAME
FROM CTXSYS.CTX_PREFERENCES
WHERE PRE_NAME = 'DEFAULT_LEXER';
The Result is :
PRE_OWNER     PRE_NAME
SYS     DEFAULT_LEXER
Can you please assist if there is a way to update the permission on this DEFAULT_LEXER preference to set the PRE_OWNER as CTXSYS ?
Thanks

That's odd. If I run the same query I see:
SQL> SELECT PRE_OWNER, PRE_NAME
2 FROM CTXSYS.CTX_PREFERENCES
3 WHERE PRE_NAME = 'DEFAULT_LEXER';
PRE_OWNER                      PRE_NAME
CTXSYS                         DEFAULT_LEXERAre all your defaults like thsi? What do you see if you run
select pre_owner, pre_name from ctxsys.ctx_preferences where pre_name like 'DEFAULT%';
It would be easy enough to update the underlying table DR$PREFERENCES to fix the owner, but who knows what else might be wrong.
Has this database been updated from a 9i installation by any chance?

Trouble creating Oracle Text index

Hey all,
I am having trouble creating an Oracle Text index. I am receiving the following error when I try to sync the index after inserting numerous rows (@170,000). I have also tried to insert the rows and then create the index afterword. See below.
