Verity Search using CF 4.5

Hi,
I am using CF 4.5 and have a verity search set-up on a
intranet. The search works in that in returns data, however I am
having a few problems, some of the returned links return for
example www.hotmail.com/www.hotmail.com/people/index.htm where the
correct link should be www.hotmail.com/people/index.htm.
Asso, if i remove a folder from the intranet folder
structure, it is still returning the file when a search is carried
out.
Any comments would be greatly welcomed.
Thanks

Its as safe as using any other vendor de-supported software.
Eventually, you will probably have to replace hardware and run into
problems where you won't be able to find an operating system that
will support it, etc., not to mention unavailable drivers that
interconnect you to your databases, etc.

How to configure and use verity search peoplesoft?

Hi All,
I have installed Veirty on pshome..Now how to configure it to use for searching in peoplesoft environment.
Our environment is,
Peopletools 852(app server) and Oracle 10g on Solaris Sparc10
HCM 9.1FP2 application
Thanks in advance.

There is an entire chapter in PeopleBooks devoted to Verity Search
PeopleBooks > PeopleTools 8.52: System and Server Administration > Configuring Verity Search and Building Verity Search Indexes
PeopleBooks > PeopleTools 8.52: PeopleCode API Reference > Verity Search Classes
I would strongly advise you to have a look at Secure Enterprise Search that was introduced in PeopleTools 8.52. More powerful, out of the box integration with PeopleSoft for global search and search pages and full declaratie from PeopleSoft pages.

I have not been able to reproduce the error, and there isn't

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

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

Verity Search Server on Macintosh

I was intending to use the ColdFusion Verity Search Service but the service is unable in the ColdFusion Administrator. It would seem the server needs to be installed separately but the link in LiveDocs is unavailable, I’m using CF8 developer on a Macintosh, if anyone knows where I can find the installation software that would be appreciated. Thanks.

I don't know about that, pwizzard. Here's something else to consider. While there's no "Mac" installer, there is a Linux one. I think that will work for you. Note that you do need to have a license key for CF to get to it. (In other words, this won't work if you're using the Developer edition, because it has no license key.)
Short answer:
Go to the page, https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=verity, enter your CF license key (standard or enterprise), and download the installer (for Linux) from there. Let us know if it works
It's also unfortunate that the /go/verity/ link fails. While we can't change the CF8 licvedocs page you found, I did change the corresponding CF9 page to offer the link above.
Long answer:
As for how I figured out that this may be what you need, here's what I did, in case any of it may help you or others in the future.
First, I recalled that there was a page of installers that went along with CF. I couldn't remember the link, but I trusted that the Adobe CF site would get me there.
- I went to the CF front page (can be found via google): http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/
- choose link in lower right of right nav bar for CF8: http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/coldfusion8/
- choose link to download trial
- log in (if you don't want to login, just keep reading).
- choose link for "related ColdFusion downloads": http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads.html
- and note that you could also just visit that link directly, now that you know it, without needing to log in
- there, it offers a section on "Verity (language packs and standalone installer)", and it has the link I offered above
Admittedly, that page says that the installer is meant for installing Verity on a machine separate from CF, so I wondered if it was what you really needed. I decided to search google for help (coldfusion install verity) and found this http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=othertechnologies_06.htm l. I guess that's the page you had found, because it offers a link to get to the installer, as http://www.adobe.com/go/verity, which fails (and because this is the CF8 docs, we can't even update it with a corrected link if we find one.)
But note that these help pages offer a popup box that offers a link to the CF9 docs: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/CFMLRef/index.html. Unfortunately, that goes to the front page of the docs. You need to note where you were on the previous page (bummer). At the top of the CF8 doc page, we see that the page was within "Installing and Using ColdFusion / Installing Integrated Technologies". We can select that from the CF docs front page, which opens to http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Installing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cdec18c28 -7ff1.html.
The link for the verity page itself is http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Installing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cdec18969 -7ffd.html. Sadly, that page (almost identical to the CF8 one) also has that failing link, but at least we can update the page with the proper one.
I wasn't positive that it was the right link, until I did some more digging. (FWIW, I tried to find any old version of the go/verity page at archive.org, but no luck. Returning to the google search results list, I did find this, though: http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/verity_reg/register/index.cgi. That looked just like the first link offered above, though only for CF7, so I was more confident that the first link I offered is indeed what you need.)
I thought to search google for the specific phrase "adobe.com/go/verity", and there it found a couple of other CF9 doc pages, and one of them (https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=verity) did also have the bad /go/verity link, and someone offered in a comment a link to (again) the original download page I offered (https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=verity). So that really seems the right page, and I have added a comment to http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Installing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cdec18969 -7ffd.html.
One last thing: while the download page doesn’t have an OS X-specific installer, the help page does mention OS X and says getting this installer is the solution, and it does offer a Linux installer to look for, so I suppose that's what you are supposed to you. One thing that still has me a little suspect of things is that I did use a key to get to that download page, and I see the filename offered for the Linux installer is "coldfusion-search-lin.bin", not the "ColdFusion_9_Verity_linux.bin name offered". But maybe it's just a doc inconsistency.
Anyway let us know if it helps.

Verity search results

Is it possible to encrypt the url of the file in the verity
search results, so that the user can't view the actual folder
structure of the file. Please help if some one knows how this could
be done. I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

The issue is not how to remove all CFM files from the
collection. We just want CFM files that do not output anything to
the user to be excluded from the search index. Most of the files in
this site are CFM files. Most importantly would be application.cfm,
form action pages, and other included files.
Certainly we could parse the results for a filename in a
predefined list, but we are trying to avoid defining this
programmatically; thinking that it is odd that these files get
included in the results at all. In the past we have segmented sites
using .cfm and .cfml as a way of excluding specific files from the
index (in the collection definition, we would not include the
specific extension as required). But this site has been in
production for some time, and is just now adding a search feature.
We don't want to rename files, and have to recheck every single
page and link in the entire site.
Does that explain what we're trying to do better?
Cheers,
Kris

CF search using "LIKE" SQL operator

I've been doing limited keyword searches of selected fields
in both MS Access and SQL Server for several years now. My searches
have always been in this format: "WHERE Title LIKE '%#sKeyword#%'."
They seem to always work. The only downside to this method is than
any word that contains the sKeyword is returned because there is a
% on both ends.
What I discovered today was that this form will also work:
WHERE Title LIKE '%#sKeyword#'; i.e. returns any word that ends in
the Keyword. But that the other variant (WHERE Title LIKE
'#sKeyword#%'), where the % is on the end, will not work.
Anyone have any idea why the version with the % on the end
will not work???
As a related item, does anyone have any idea how you would
search a long text field for just the sKeyword; i.e., it would be
like doing a WHERE Title LIKE '#sKeyword#'. I know that a LIKE
search without any %'s will not return anything and I'm already
doing Verity searchs so I know about that method. I'm just looking
for a simple way to find a whole word within a group of words in a
single field.

The Title field is a text field that is 100 characters long.
The sKeyword is any word that is entered in a 35 character long
textarea and then placed into the sKeyword var. The word I have
been testing with is 'ratio'. It return words like 'ratio',
'frustration' and 'operation' when used with #1 below. Returning
'frustration' and 'operation' is somewhat confusion to some users
so I was trying to find a way to only return 'ratio', but so far I
haven't figured out a way to do so. But I digress...
The queries that return values are: 1) WHERE Title LIKE
'%#sKeyword#%' and 2) WHERE Title LIKE '%#sKeyword#'. I have four
reference books that say that WHERE Title LIKE '#sKeyword#%' should
also work, but it doesn't.

Verity search results across multiple pages

Hi, I am attempting to implement verity search on my website and am using the code below for the search, and search results page.
Currently the results are limited to 5 as specified by the maxrows command. How can I implement a forward and back feature across multiple pages? (like google search results)
Search:
<cfparam name="form.params" default="">
<cfparam name="target" default="searchVerity">
<cfoutput>
<form method="post" action="results1.cfm">
<p>
Enter your search term(s) using AND, OR, NOT and parens.
Surround an exact phrase with quotes.
</p>
<input type="text" name="params" size="75" value="#form.params#">
<br />
<input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>
</cfoutput>
Result Page:
<cfparam name="form.params" default="">
<cfparam name="target" default="searchVerity">
<cfsearch
name="foundResults"
collection="search"
criteria="#form.params#"
contextPassages = "1"
contextBytes = "300"
maxrows = "5">

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.

Install K2 Verity Search on Cold Fusion Mx7

Does anyone have any documentation, a KB article, or
experience installing and configuring the K2 Verity Search Server
on Cold Fusion MX 7?
We have Cold Fusion running but it doesn't look like any of
the Verity services are installed. I've found KB articles related
to K2 Verity on version 5, but not for verion 7.

We already have Cold Fusion installed, but somehow the Verity
Search Server was never installed as part of the normal install
process.
Quote from doc:
Installing the Verity search server separately
By default, the installer installs the Verity search server on
the same computer as
ColdFusion MX 7. To enable searches using Verity, if you
want to install the Verity search server
on a different computer from the one where you install
ColdFusion MX 7, you must install the
Verity search server separately. For more information, see
“Installing the Verity search server
So I guess what you're saying is to download the packages and
install Verity?

Enterprise Search using Sharepoint Server 2007 + SAP R/3

Hi experts,
I want to achieve an enterprise search using SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS).
SharePoint includes the BDC (business data catalog) which allows you to communicate with the SAP System.
I read in the Microsoft whitepapers that thereu2019s a need for a web application server 6.40.
So here is the problem:
We have SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.7 with WAS 6.20. We donu2019t want to change or upgrade the SAP system.
There are ways to connect the WAS to the R/3 system e.g. RFC.
But does this still work for search in SharePoint?
Did anybody already deal with this problem?
Any other ideas connecting SharePoint to SAP in this scenario?
Best regards
Philipp Detemple

> and having requirement to upgrade OS version from B.11 to B.23. Currently server is hosting SAP R/3 Enterprise version.
So you upgrade HP-UX 11.11 to HP-UX 11.23?
> I have tried to serach SAP service market place for PAM, but could not find specific information on version upgrade from B.11 to B.23
Yes - because there is no HP-UX 23.x, only 11.23 and 11.31. For the version overview check

It will work.
> So even if I got for latest patch 304 which is released on 16.11.2009, still the OS version for which it built is B.11, so if we have B.23, will it work? I would not see the possibilities of kernel upgrade at this stage.
Why no possibility for a kernel upgrade if you install a new server?

Reading (and searching, use of TOC and index) Acrobat files offline

OK - I have tried several things in effort to read PDFs offline.
The 'tools' that allow me to access these files PDFReader Pro and GoDocs are incapable of doing searches, use TOC, and index.. It is basically a picture of a PDF. They also present it in the linear form where I need to actually scroll the 343 PAGES to get to the information I want to read mid-way into the document.
Is there a realistic tool that actually properly presents PDF files offline and allows it to be used as it was intended? OOPS - correction Safari cant display this right either.... never mind ....
Thanks
Message was edited by: EmbeddedGeek
I removed an erroneous statement that safari can properly display PDFs - it can't provide search, index/toc accesses. Bogus!

On a possibly related note, see http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20004258-263.html?tag=mncol;txt for a way to ADD stuff to the TOC. I'm just passing this along, I haven't tried it.

How do you perform partial word search using PDF Open Parameters?

Hello,
We are using the 'search=' open parameter in the URL string, which open a PDF and automatically searches for a word within the PDF. It works great for whole word searches. Unfortunately, it does not work for partial word, or phrases. In other words, if I'm searching on '123456' and there is a word in the document that is '1234567', it will not find the partial word, or first 6 characters of the 7 character word. You can perform a partial or phrased search using the advance search feature of Adobe Reader. So, currently after the PDF opens, and shows no hits on the automatic search for '123456', we are able to manually search again for a partial word search, and then see matches in the document. Is there any way to specify to use a whole or partial word search when using the 'search=' open parameter, so that we can automatically match on partial and whole words? Something like 'search=123456*'?

It never worked that way. Command-F shows the page search bar.

Service Ticket: Search using Inbox & My Worklist in IC WebClient

Dear Gurus,
When I create a Service Ticket in the IC WebClient in CRM 5.0 and save it, the system generates a Transaction Number which I can then search for by using Interaction History, Inbox and My Worklist.
When I search using Interaction History, I select the relevant Service Ticket and the system takes me to an Interaction Record, and from there I can navigate to the correct Service Ticket.
When I search using Inbox, the system takes me to a Service Order, which I do not believe is correct.
When I search using My Worklist, the system also takes me to a Service Order, which I do not believe is correct.
Any recommendations?
Rgs,
Alan

Hi
You can search service ticket from inbox ideally by entering the object ID in the agent inbox or you can also search for service tickets in interaction record which is an activity transaction type if you maintain the copy control for service ticket from interaction record then you can search for service ticket through the interaction record as well.

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.
