Ultra Search / File system

Hi again,
I'm developing a document management application and now i'm storing files on the local file system with an structure of folders and subfolders created by me. Now, I want to add functionality of searching documents by content and so, I thought in using Ultra Search. My doubt is what shall I do because I don't want to store files in the database because i would mean to redefine the lowest layer of my application and, obviously, I can't. So, my answer is: Is there a way of having a "pointer" to each file in order to return this identifier every time that I do a search of files containing a certain word? The pointer could be a foreign key to another table with information of how to locate the file.
I hope it would be clear! :)
Thanks a lot,
Jordi
Thank you very much!

and, obviously, I can't.With Ultra Search you can directly index and search files stored on the file system. I.e. you don't need to have them in the database.

Problem in installing Ultra Search

Hi all,
We are facing problem while installing Ultra Search for Oracle 9i in Sun Solaris server. The Ultra Search documentation says that the middle tier component includes the following :
1. Ultra Search admininstration tool
2. Ultra Search Java query API
3. Ultra Search Java server page sample query qpplication
But we are unable to see it either in the Oracle Universal Installer's list of installed components or in the database server's file system. The documentation says that for deploying the Ultra Search Administration Tool on a Third Party Middle Tier, the ear file :
$ORACLE_HOME/ultrasearch/webapp/ultrasearch_admin.ear
should be present. But we cannot find the directory "webapp" at that location.
Does the ear file already get extracted during installation ?
Are the three components listed above shown in the Oracle Universal Installer's list ?
Where can we get the ear file for installation on a Third Party Application Server (iPlanet Server) ?
Can anyone outline the Installation process for Ultra Search ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I assume you are installing Oracle 9iR2.
It seems OUI did not install most of the Ultra Search files. Can you check in your
oraInventory/Components directory for oracle.isearch.*?
You should see
oracle.isearch.client
oracle.isearch.is_common
oracle.isearch.server
If not, these components have not been installed. Please check your installation procedure
to make sure the following are checked:
Oracle Ultra Search Middle-Tier
Oracle Ultra Search Common Files
Oracle Ultra Search Server
follow up with me if you still have problems.

Errors in Ultra Search crawler's log file

Hi all,
I'm trying to configure Ultra Search to do advanced search on a set of attributes of my Portal items.
After executed Synchronization Schedule in the Ultra Search Administration Tool, I found these in the Crawler Progress Summary:
Documents to Fetch 0
Documents Fetched 284
Document Fetch Failures 0
Documents Rejected 0
Documents Discovered 284
Documents Indexed 59
Documents non-indexable 225
Document Conversion Failures 0
The number of non-indexable documents are 225 while the indexed documents are only 59. Then I looked into the Crawler's log file and found that all the almost processes tried to index Portal items got errors. The errors look like:
http://winas10g.tinhvan.com/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwsbr_srchxml.execute?p_action=generate_item&p_thingid=276935&p_siteid=753&p_result_lang=en: Portal server returned an error message.
Documents to process = 0
Error message returned from Portal server is: User-Defined Exception.
The successful processed documents look like:
Documents to process = 186
Processing http://winas10g.tinhvan.com/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwsbr_srchxml.execute?p_action=generate_item&p_thingid=276386&p_siteid=753
Total documents successfully processed = 86
Documents to process = 185
Then when I performed search, I just can find the text that appear directly on Portal pages with URL address format: http://host:port/pls/portal/url/PAGE/pagegroup_name/page_name.
Is there any error with my Utra Search configuration here? How can I index all the Portal items along with their attributes?
Thanks,
Vietdt

The log file for the crawler schedule should be explicitly listed in the information for the schedule. Please check the information for that schedule.
This log file will be located in the log directory that you've specified in the "crawler" tab.
Please locate the log file and let us know what you see in that.
thanks

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:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/70541f55-6a66-4d55-8f2c-9f9a356b9654/how-to-open-sharepoint-search-results-from-file-server-using-office-web-apps-server-2013?forum=sharepointsearch

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

ULTRA SEARCH 10G 서버 콤포넌트를 수동으로 설치, 설치 해제하는 방법

제품 : ORACLE SERVER
작성날짜 : 2005-11-29
ULTRA SEARCH 10G 서버 콤포넌트를 수동으로 설치, 설치 해제하는 방법
=============================================
PURPOSE
이 문서는, Ultra Search 10G를 수동으로 설치하거나 설치 해제하는 방법을
기술하고 있다.
Explanation
1. 수동 설치 절차
1) Oracle Text와 JVM이 정상적으로 설치되어 있는지 확인한다. 관련된
정보는 다음 문서에 기술 되어 있다
Bulletin No: 22844 Oracle Text 10gR1의 수동 설치와, 설치 해제 방법
2) OS 프롬프트에서 다음 디렉토리로 이동한다
At the OS prompt, change to the following directory:
Unix: $ORACLE_HOME/ultrasearch/admin
Windows: $ORACLE_HOME\ultrasearch\admin
3) JVM이 정상적으로 설치 되어 있는지 확인한다. Oracle JVM 설치 절차와 관련
해더는 다음 문서를 참조한다 :
Note 276554.1 <How to Reload the JVM in 10.1.0.X>
4) SQLPlus를 사용하여, SYSDBA 권한을 가지고 SYS 계정으로 데이터베이스 연결한다.
5) wk0install.sql SQL script를 실행시킨다.
파라미터 요약:
-- SYS = "&1" <== sys 유저 명: SYS
-- SYSPW = "&2" <== sys 유저의 패스워드: (예 change_on_install)
-- WKSYSPW = "&3" <== WKSYS 유저의 패스워드: (예 wksys)
-- WK_TABLESPACE = "&4" <== WKSYS의 default tablespace: (예 SYSAUX)
-- WK_TEMPTABLESPACE = "&5" <== WKSYS의 temporary tablespace: (예 TEMP)
-- CONN_STRING = "&6" <== non-RAC instance 환경에서 Ultra Search를 설치할 경우
null string을 지정 : (예 "")
RAC 환경에서 설치할 경우 TNS descriptor: (예 <host name>:<port number>:<SID>
- 또는 -
(DESCRIPTION=(LOAD_BALANCE=yes)(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)
(HOST=cls02a)(PORT=3999)) (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=cls02b)(PORT=3999)))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=acme.us.com)))" )
-- PORTAL_USER = "&7" <== Portal 유저. Portal을 사용하지 않는다면 null string 입력: (예 "")
-- LAUNCH_ANYWHERE = "&8" <== TRUE 또는 FALSE; Clustered File System (CFS)을 사용하는
RAC일 경우에만 TRUE 지정한다. 그외의 경우 FALSE: (예 FALSE)
다음과 같은 명령 실행을 통해 Ultra Search 데이터베이스 패케지를 설치한다:
SQLPLUS> set echo on
SQLPLUS> spool ultrasearch_inst.log
SQLPLUS> @$ORACLE_HOME/ultrasearch/admin/wk0install.sql SYS change_on_install wksys SYSAUX TEMP "" "" FALSE
SQLPLUS> spool off
SQLPLUS> exit
6) wk0install.sql 스크립트를 실행하는데 에러가 발생하지 않았다면 수동
설치는 성공한 것이다.
7) wk0install.sql 스크립트를 실행하여 설치 후에는 객체의 갯수를 확인한다
SQL> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM DBA_OBJECTS
WHERE OWNER = 'WKSYS';
COUNT(*)
351
참고: 대략 351개의 객체가 생성되어야 한다.
SQL> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM DBA_OBJECTS
WHERE OWNER = 'WKSYS' AND STATUS = 'INVALID';
COUNT(*)
0
참고: invalid 상태의 객체가 없아야 한다.
2. 수동 설치 해제 절차
1) Ultra Search Schema (WKSYS) 설치 해제와 관련된 절차는 9.2.x 매뉴얼에 기술된
내용과 동일하다. (Bulletin No: 21563 ULTRA SEARCH 수동 설치 및 제거 (9.2.0.1)
의 내용을 참고한다. )
2) OS 프롬프트에서 다음 디렉토리로 이동한다.
Unix: $ORACLE_HOME/ultrasearch/admin
Windows: $ORACLE_HOME\ultrasearch\admin
3) SQLPlus를 사용하여, SYSDBA 권한을 가지고 SYS 계정으로 데이터베이스 연결한다.
4) WKSYS 유저가 데이터베이스에 연결 된 상태가 아닌지 확인한다. 만약 WKSYS 사용자가
연결된 상태라면, 해당 세션을 죽이거나, 세션이 종료 될 때 까지 기다린다:
SELECT SID, SERIAL#, OSUSER FROM V$SESSION
WHERE USERNAME = 'WKSYS';
5) wk0deinst.sql SQL 스크립트를 실행시킨다.
파라미터 요약:
-- SYS = "&1" <== sys 유저 명: SYS
-- SYSPW = "&2" <== sys 유저의 패스워드: (예 change_on_install)
-- CONN_STRING = "&3" <== non-RAC instance 환경에서 Ultra Search를 설치할 경우
null string을 지정 : (예 "")
RAC 환경에서 설치할 경우 TNS descriptor: (예 <host name>:<port number>:<SID>
- 또는 -
(DESCRIPTION=(LOAD_BALANCE=yes)(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)
(HOST=cls02a)(PORT=3999)) (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=cls02b)(PORT=3999)))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=acme.us.com)))" )
Ultra Search 데이터베이스 패키지를 다음 명령을 이용하여 설치 해제한다:
SQLPLUS> set echo on
SQLPLUS> spool ultrasearch_deinst.log
SQLPLUS> @$ORACLE_HOME/ultrasearch/admin/wk0deinst.sql SYS

Oracle Text And Oracle Ultra search

Hi all,
I have a problem. I have some files in the server file system e.g C:/docs. I want to search these MS Office word files in order to see if they contain a word. I tried oracle ultra search but when i put File data source it provides a form file:/// and when i put C:/docs it gives me file://localhost/C:/docs. Can i configure Oracle ultra search to search into the server file system?Where is the directory that oracle ultra search searches a file?
How can index and search the files in the file systems exept oracle ultra search? Can Oracle Text do my job?
Sorry to bother and thank you in advance for your help
Antonis.

Hi,
Searching a word in a document (MS Word) can definitely be done using Oracle Text.
But, you other requirements can make things a bit complicated.
Oracle Text have something called file_datastore, where you need to mention the file_path/s and individual file names too.
Once you mention them, i.e. path and file names, oracle text can read the file , index them and you can query using simple queries.
If the number of files are huge, entering all the file names can be difficult. In that case you can give the following a try.
-- You can use a perl script to read the file name in a directory, put it into a file in a particular format (1 file name per line) and then load that text file into a table using ctxloader.
You can go through the FILE_DATASTORE and CTXLOADER examples from oracle text reference document.

Can ultra search portlet search html pages stored outside of portal

I have some html pages stored on my hard drive. I would like to search these from my portal page using the ultrasearch portlet.
Is this possible?
Thanks.

In answer to your question Ultra Search can search content from a number of sources, including websites files on the file system and of course, Portal.
The built in Portal Searching functionality can search files on a filesystem but only by creating URL items where the URL is a file:// URL that points to the file on a filesystem that is local to the Portal repository database.

Ultra Search/ Oracle Text capabilities

Our decision to go forward with Oracle9i is contingent upon the extensible use of Ultra Search and Oracle Text in our planned endeavors.
Basically we are to build a system to do the following:
1) download information (html files, links, documents) from web sites and accessible disk archives. The url sites are particular to a domain.
2) place the downloaded file information into our Oracle database or download to local system with appropriate links in database.
3) perform queries on the downloaded information through the database to isolate files for analysis.
4) analyze and perform extraction on the information. For example, query based on a defined hierarchy of vulnerability terms.
I've demoed Ultra Search and Oracle Text. I believe that Ultra Search can handle step 1, and possibly step 2 and that Oracle Text can help in step 4. Step 3 is satisfied by the Oracle database.
I need to know details concerning Ultra Search and Oracle Text before committing:
o when Ultra Search performs its crawling, how is found information represented in the database. Is a whole html file or document downloaded or are references to these documents stored in the database? If references are stored does Ultra Search embed the capability to download these files to be analyzed?
o is Oracle Text the right tool to provide the capability for robust analysis of downloaded documents.
o I have used the sample JSP that came with Ultra Search. Are there any more detailed examples which my above steps. In particular, performing robust analysis on downloaded documents from step 1.
We have and are still exploring other COTS products to find a solution. Are main goal is to have the retrieved documents and analysis information resident in the database in this phase of our project. We find other COTS can perform the web crawling, but lack analysis, or vice versa and that their solutions are so vendor specific that in many times their services would be required to build a suitable solution that is not very extensible.
Thanks for any feedback.

Ultra Search does not keep documents in the database permanently. We bring them in for indexing purposes, but remove them after
the indexing is completed. However, we keep the URLs of each unique document that was found during the crawling. You would
have to do the downloading yourself. However, we are thinking about providing a mechanism, maybe in the form of an API, that
would allow customers to retrieve documents. Please contact me on this issue if you are interested to discuss this: (650)-506-8173.
Generally speaking you will find that Oracle Text is a very powerful tool for analysis of textual documents, especially since it is
driven through the SQL language, has extensive functionality (themes, user-defined knowledge base, thesaurus, and many useful linguistic
functions like segmentation, stemming, and globalisation support).
The philosophy of Ultra Search is to provide you with an out-of-the-box solution for crawling and searching your data without the
need for programming. Ultra Search is built on top of Text, so I would advise you to use Text to do the further analysis of your
documents after they have been located by the crawler.

Crystal Reports XI String [255] limit with the File System Data driver...

I was trying to create a Crystal Reports XI report to return security permissions of files and folders. I have been able to successfully connect and return data using the File System Data driver as the Data Source; however the String limit on the ACL NT Security Field is 255 characters. The full string of data to be returned can be much longer than the 255 limit and I cannot find how to manipulate that parameter.
I am currently on Crystals XI and Crystal XI R2 and have applied the latest service packs but still see the issue. My Crystal Reports Database DLL for File System data ( crdb_FileSystem.dll ) is at Product Version 11.5.10.1263.
Is it possible to change string limits when using the File System Data driver as the Data Source? If so, how can that be accomplished. If not, is there another method to retrieve information with the Windows File System Data being the Data Source? Meaning, could I reach my end game objective of reporting on the Windows ACL's with Crystal through another method?

Hello,
This is a known issue. Early versions you could not create folder structures longer than 255 characters. With the updates to the various OS's this is now possible but CR did not allocate the same space required.
It's been tracked as an enhancement - ADAPT01174519 but set for a future release.
There are likely other ways of getting the info and then putting it into an Excel file format and using that as the data source.
I did a Google search and found this option: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/16772-45-display-explorer-folders-tree-structure-export-excel
There are tools out there to do this kind of thing....
Thank you
Don
Note the reference to msls.exe appears to be a trojan: http://www.greatis.com/appdata/d/m/msls.exe.htm so don't install it.

How to insert a JPG file from file system to Oracle 10g?

I have developed a schema to store photos as BLOB which store the text description as CLOB original filename, file size.
I also use ctxsys.context to index TEXT_DESCRIPTION in order to perform Oracle Text Search and it works.
I would like to insert some JPG file from say C:\MYPHOTO\Photo1.jpg as a new record. How can I do this in SQL PLus and/or Loader?
How can I retrieve the PHOTO_IMAGE back to the file system using SQL Plus and/or command line in DOS?
See the following script:
create user myphoto identified by myphoto;
grant connect, resource, ctxapp to myphoto;
connect myphoto/myphoto@orcl;

Hi
You can use the following to insert an image:
create table imagetab(id number primary key,imagfile blob, fcol varchar2(10));
create or replace directory imagefiles as 'c:\'
declare
    v_bfile BFILE;
    v_blob BLOB;
begin
    insert into imagetab (id,imagfile,fcol)
    values (3,empty_blob(),'BINARY')
    return imagfile into v_blob;
    v_bfile := BFILENAME ('IMAGEFILES', 'MyImage.JPG');
    Dbms_Lob.fileopen (v_bfile, Dbms_Lob.File_Readonly);
    Dbms_Lob.Loadfromfile (v_blob, v_bfile, Dbms_Lob.Getlength(v_bfile));
    Dbms_Lob.Fileclose(v_bfile);
    commit;
end;

few doubts
Is it possible to go ahead for IDM installation without having ultra search enabled in database?
any other way around that i can have ultra search?
after applying patchset on basic version(10201) i am installing ultra search from basic version (as patchset doesnt have companion dir) on upgraded version(10204) causing this issue?
Thanks,

my guess was correct. the issue was last point.
After applying patchset on basic version(10201) i am installing ultra search from basic version (as patchset doesnt have companion dir) on upgraded version(10204) causing this issue?
it was resolved by uninstalling DB, and again installing from basic version (10201) then went to companion CD, installed ultrasearch on same oracle_home. it got installed without any issue.
then upgraded to 10204. then created DB, and enabled ultrasearch by DBCA.
let me know in case of more details required.

Error when trying to create a Files System with newfs

HI,
I am running Solaris 8 on a Sun Ultra 10 workstation
I am in the process of configuring the slices on my primary 20 gig hard drive. I have partitioned the hard drive as follows.
# prtvtoc /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s2
* /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s2 (volume "edi_main") partition map
* Dimensions:
* 512 bytes/sector
* 63 sectors/track
* 16 tracks/cylinder
* 1008 sectors/cylinder
* 39535 cylinders
* 39533 accessible cylinders
* Flags:
* 1: unmountable
* 10: read-only
* First Sector Last
* Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory
0 2 00 27265392 12583872 39849263 /
1 2 00 0 1049328 1049327
2 5 00 0 39849264 39849263
3 2 00 1049328 26216064 27265391 /edi
The root filesystem was created at installation, and I executed newfs on partition 3 to create the /edi filesystem, and both of them are mounted. I now need to create a filesystem on slice 1 but the newfs command is not working. I get the following output from newfs:
# newfs -v /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1
newfs: /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1: Unable to read Disk geometry
Could someone tell me what is wrong with this partition.
Any help would be appreciated.

I e-mailed tech support and got my answer.
I should have been using /dev/rdsk and not /dev/dsk when specifying the disk slice to put the file system on.

In Windows Event long I can see the following events logged:
Event 3002, Port Map:
Windows(R) failed a request to register RPC Port Mapper on TCP port 111. RPC Port Mapper cannot start.
Network File System (NFS) clients use RPC Port Mapper (also known as Portmap and Rpcbind) to discover NFS protocols on remote servers. Without RPC Port Mapper, Server for NFS
cannot start and NFS clients cannot access files on this server.
Verify that no other software is registered on TCP port 111, then start Server for NFS manually (which will also start RPC Port Mapper).
Event 7000, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS Open RPC (ONCRPC) Portmapper service failed to start due to the following error:
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Event 7001, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS Driver service depends on the Server for NFS Open RPC (ONCRPC) Portmapper service which failed to start because of the following error:
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Event 7001, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS service depends on the Server for NFS Driver service which failed to start because of the following error:
The dependency service or group failed to start.
Based on a technet forum I have already checked and made sure there is no other service running on port 111 (command used is netstat -a -b -o).
Dependent Service Status:
During the installation process “Client for NFS” seems to have gone well and the service started successfully. But the “Server for NFS” failed, when checked for the status of the dependent process “portmap” service failed to start with the WIN32_EXIT_CODE
“31 (0x1f)”. Please find below the query result.

As the EXIT CODE is 31 ( A device attached to the system is not functioning), I have checked device manager and made sure there is no yellow warning shown against any hardware device. Further I am not sure how to proceed and debug this issue.
Please let me know if you have any suggestion on how debug this issue further.

My solution was to run netstat -ano to identify what process was running on port TCP/UDP :111, then with the command tasklist I got PID matching with the task name. Once identified I stopped the process, rebooted and installed
the NFS service. On top of that, before installing NFS services I disabled firewall and antivirus. It worked fine for me. I hope this will be usefull for you. By the way, don't forget to enable all process back!
Have a good one!
