Verity Search Error

I just started a Verity search engine for a very large site,
and have gotten the following error message a couple of times:
There was a problem while attmpting to perform a search.
Query has a parsing error. (-40)

<br>The error occurred on line 36.
The tag for the search is as follows:
<cfsearch collection="#form.collect#" language="English"
type="SIMPLE" criteria="#Session.searchTerm#"
name="Session.results">
on line 36.
I have not been able to reproduce the error, and there isn't
anything strange about the search terms submitted.
This is the first time I've used Verity, and would appreciate
any words of wisdom as to what might be the cause of this error,
and how to eliminate it.

ok the value is 0
but i am not sure what that means, i havnt used verity
before?
can you help
just to let you know what i need to do,
i have a results page which show 1 surname with all that
persons information, on the same page there is a search by surname
text box, when this is submited i need to move to the first recoed
that matches the text box, so then i can still use the next and
previous buttons to navigate through.
so really what i need to do is get all the records order them
by surname then give each of them a id number
so Abbot = 1, Adcock= 2 etc
then i should be able to use the next and previous to go
through them?
i am just not sure how i can do this?
hope you can usnderstand what i am trying to do.
many thanks

    Do a QuickTime standalone install. That usually fixes the 2093 error.

    Save it to your your hard drive - don't install over the internet.

  • Verity simple search error

    When doing a type="simple" in a CFSEARCH, I am replacing the
    spaces in the criteria with commas. The issue comes when the words
    AND or OR appear in the criteria. So,
    Love and Logic changes to
    Love,and,Logic. For some reason, I get an error when this
    happens. The CFCATCH variables come back as follows:
    erType = "SearchEngine"
    erMessage = "There was a problem while attmpting[sp] to
    perform a search."
    erDetail = "------ Query has a parsing error. (-40) at
    com.verity.k2.K2Search.receive(Unknown Source) at
    com.verity.search.ProcessSearch.processNormal(Unknown Source)...
    et. al."
    Note the typo.
    My work-around is to treat the converted criteria as a list
    object and remove any AND's and OR's that are found, but I'd rather
    not add the admittedly tiny processing time.
    This seemed to work just fine before we went to CF7. Any
    ideas?

    Rather than using named bind variables use positional bind variables like :1, :2, etc and bind all the variables. Don't repeat the bind variables in the SQL statement.
    If you still face the problem paste the VO statement here.

    Peddi.

  • Sorting a Query of a  Verity search

    I'd like to sort a verity collection's output by the latest
    date of the record.
    The way I did this in CF5 was to query the results of the
    verity search ORDER BY KEY DESC (key being the ID of the record,
    and therefore I got the order the way I wanted it)
    In CFMX it does not allow this, here is the error I'm
    getting:
    Query Of Queries syntax error.
    Encountered "KEY. Incorrect ORDER BY column reference [KEY].
    Only simple column reference, alias name, and integer column
    id are allowed.
    (an interesting note is that when I pass the records ID to
    CUTOM1 the sort works, however, I cannot do that because the way I
    built the results to display is based on the key desc etc.....)
    anyone know why this is and how to get around it?
    Thanks
    Yankee

    What position in your select statemen is the KEY column? If
    it is in the first position, just ORDER BY 1 DESC, if it is in the
    second, ORDER BY 2 DESC, etc.

  • Verity search not indexing

    I have recently upgraded to coldfusion 8. I reworked my
    verity searches but the main one of the website times out. I have
    gotten it to complete a couple of times but this time it will not
    complete. I have no clue what to change to make it index. I would
    appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    This is the error "The request has exceeded the allowable
    time limit Tag: cfoutput " It is a verity search of my website
    "www.archives.alabama.gov" there are over 26,000 documents. It has
    always worked fine until the upgrade to v.8 and it worked the first
    several times but now it is timing out with the above message
    everytime. I do not know where that tag is or how to change it.
    That is what I need to know.

  • Verity Search Service in JBoss

    Hi All,
    Good morning!
    Here my question is about Verity Search Service. I'm using Windows OS in my local machine and my DEV system is using Linux OS. In both these machines, Verity Search is working properly and our code works good. When we to do the same thing on the Client server its not working. We are always getting a message that the Coldfusion Verity Search service is not started/ not there.
    Our Client server is built in JBoss and Coldfusion.
    Can you please guide me how to start the Verity Search Service in the JBoss?
    Here is the error message we are getting.
    On Windows, you may need to start the ColdFusion Search Server from the services control panel.
    On Unix, you may need to run the search startup script in the ColdFusion bin directory.
    Error: java.io.IOException: unable to obtain from connection pool: cannot make connection to server at: k2://localhost:9953"
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Amar,
    Thank you for the quick response

  • HELP with Verity searching

    I have a Verity collection and I am searching it
    successfully. HOWEVER, I have three custom fields that I am using
    as part of the index for each file. I am noticing that by default
    Verity is NOT searching these custom fields. I figured out that for
    the criteria parameter of cfsearch I can do this:
    criteria="#strSearch# OR cf_custom1 <contains>
    #strSearch# OR cf_custom2 <contains> #strSearch# etc...."
    This will indeed search the custom fields, but only using
    simple search terms like "web" or "web development" or "web AND
    development".
    As soon as I try to use more of the other Verity searches
    like "web <near> development" or "<case> CIA", it
    throws an error. How can I make it so I can search the custom
    fields but also allow the user to use Verity's more powerful search
    terms?

    public class StringSearchTest {
      public static void main(String[] args){
        Random rnd = new Random();
        String alpha = "     abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
        String s = "";
        StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(3000100);
        for(int i = 0; i< 1500000;i++){
          sb.append(alpha.charAt(rnd.nextInt(alpha.length())));
          //if((i % 1000)==0) System.out.println(i);
        sb.append("j_a_v_a");
        for(int i = 0; i< 1500000;i++){
          sb.append(alpha.charAt(rnd.nextInt(alpha.length())));
        s = sb.toString();
        // now s is about 3,000,000 characters long or about 500,000 5 letter words
        for(int i = 0; i<1000; i++){
          System.out.println(i + s.indexOf("j_a_v_a"));
    }I generate a string of about 3 million random characters in is. Stuff the string "j_a_v_a" into the middle and then use good old indexOf() to find it. I repeat the search a thousand times, printing crap out to the console each time through the loop and this process easily runs in 10 seconds. This means it takes less than a hundredth of a second to do a single find (on my box - millage may vary).
    Now I know that that a hundredth of a second is WAY slower than it could be. But exactly why do you need it to be way faster than that? Do you need it to be faster so bad that you need to actually bring in the consultants, ask about algorithms, write a bunch o' code, test it out and document it?
    Remember the quote about premature optimization being the root of all evil?
    Well, it is. You should not be writing the fast algorithm until you have first written the butt simple code to see how slow it is, and if you did write that code, you should have posted it, or clocked it and told us how slow it was and given us some indication of why and how much faster it needed to be.
    Sorry, nothing personal, I'm in a bad mood today.

    not 100% sure but i think you want unicode encodings not the
    "language" ones as
    i think those are codepages. and i also don't think you want
    utf-16, utf-8 is a
    better choice w/cf.

  • Ultra Search Error Messages

    Is there any list with all possible Ultra Search Error Messages?

    Hi,
    I was using dbca to create a database after installing R12. Errored out with "ORA-20000: Oracle Ultra Search error" after running 71%. It prompts me "Ignore" or "Abort". Why you run DBCA to create a database after installing R12? Rapid Install 11i/R12 will install the database for you and you do not have to do so manually.
    I checked one of the log files "cloneDBCreation", there is an error ORA-01109: database not open. What should I do?If the above is not valid, please check the database log file for details why the database was not created successfully.

    All I want is the assurance that when I do a search, the results will be complete. How do I
    fix this? I am running the standalone preview-329 under Windows XP with no additional plugins
    to the eclipse 3.0.0 that ships with the release.

    Thanks Omar Alonso
    I will go through it.

  • Verity Search - exclude html tags when indexing?

    I have a table I want to index, but some data stored in the
    table contains HTML.
    I want to index the content, but I want all HTML tags to be
    excluded.
    This is a problem, say you had a table storing all retail
    stores, there's some HTML in the data, and you do a Verity search
    for "Target" (as in the Target retail store). You will return a lot
    of irrelevant results if there's a
    target="blank" attribute in an A HREF tag, for example. Can
    you strip these out during the <CFINDEX> ?
    Any idea on how to accomplish this?

    Hi user494326,
    I'm actually having trouble getting html into a CLOB. It sounds like you were able to do this successfully. What did you do to get it in as far as escaping characters, etc. I'd love to see how you handled that, it would be greatly appreciated!
