[opencms-dev] RE: Help for searching in opencms

[Jason Trump]

I would guess that your problem is not with your JSP code, but with your search index definition, which is in opencms-search.xml.  A few questions:  

What version of OpenCms are you using?  

What is the path of the HTML document in your repository (for example, /sites/default/foo.html)?  

Are you building a multi-language site?

What is the locale setting for the documents you are trying to search?

Have you made any modifications to the opencms-search.xml file, or are you still dealing with a clean install?

I have CC'd the mailing list, as there might be others there who can help with this.  I recommend that you post the answers to these questions, along with a copy of your opencms-search.xml file, to the mailing list.

You need to make sure that:

1.  there is a "<documenttype>" element for the HTML type defined in the "<documenttypes>" element.  There should also be "xmlpage" and "xmlcontent" document types (which are also HTML documents that are stored in XML format).
2.  if you are building a multi-language site, make sure that you have an "<analyzer>" element (and possibly a "<stemmer>" element) defined for you language inside of "<analyzers>".
3.  there is an "<indexsource>" element that contains the folder where your HTML documents are stored under "<resources>", as well as "xmlcontent", "xmlpage", and "html" entries in the "<documenttypes-indexed>" element.

And probably some other stuff that I forgot :)
