similar to: xapian 1.0.2 in the ubuntu repo

Hi guys I have implemented xapian on a website, and it currently has about 2M items in its index. Its all been working quite nicely so far, until I tried removing some old items from the index (removing items when the index was smaller was no problems at all). When I try to remove them now (using writabledatabase_delete_document() via php), it halfway freezes up the machine, and the apache

Just got this error when replacing (updating) a document in the xapian index (using php bindings): Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'DatabaseError: Error reading block 16908825: got end of file' Does anyone know what this means exactly? Alec

Hi All I have just realized that if I set a query like 'green jelly bean' xapian will turn that query into 'green OR jelly OR bean' This causes documents containing just one of the words to be considered a 100% hit. The behavior I would like to see is that each word gives a 33.3% hit, so that a document containing all 3 words gets placed above a document with only 1 or 2

Hi All I have made my xapian indexer automatically create new indexes once it reaches X documents in each, and for each document that I add to each sub-index, I record its document_id and its index_id (relating to what index the document ended up in). writabledatabase_add_document() returns document_id:s beginning from 0 for each new index when you add new documents, like you would expect. So

Hi All Is there any reason why someone could not build a regular PHP extension (not using SWIG) for Xapian? Same as mnoGoSearch has. The extension itself would be released under the PHP license. Is there anything on either side of the pond that would prevent this from being legal? Alec

Just re-posting so swig-devel get so see it. It's an architectural solution whereby swig has the power to banish licensing conflicts that may exist between any imported library and the target system for which swig is generating a module. -----Original Message----- From: "Sam Liddicott" <sam@liddicott.com> To: "Alexander Lind" <malte@webstay.org>; "William

Hi all Is there a way to do adaptive query scoring (as in popular results returned by a query should get more weight because they are getting clicked more often) in xapian? Is this what the rset class should be used for? I could write a php app to do adaptive results scoring for separate words (just recording the clicks and then have a cron:ned script add weight to the document_id:s for the

Hi guys Sorry to take up your time with this, I have just been stuck on a little problem with xapian for a few days here and I can't seem to figure it out for myself. I have created an xapian index (using the php bindings). I have added documents to it, with values, terms and postings. I can successfully search in this index on anything that is in a posting, but if I search on a word that

Hi Guys I've run into a little problem, which I think may be a bug in Xapian (or more likely the php bindings). The functions I think may not be working correctly is Enquire_set_sort_by_value() and Enquire_set_sort_by_value_then_relevance() Given a result set where each document has a unique number set on the first value (0), I am trying to order the result by this value. If I do

Hi everybody, I''ve been trying to setup a Ruby on Rails application on a Ubuntu Feisty machine and I''ve spent a lot of time trying to figure out why Nginx and mongrel_cluster weren''t working. The setup was correct (based on some tutorials found on the internet), but there weren''t any pid files for the mongrels started. In case anybody else has experienced the

Hi List Is there a good way to generate search term suggestions meant for the user to see? I was thinking using the relevance set and expansion set stuff for this, but since these functions return a lot of Z-prefixed stemmed down versions of words, those results are not always suitable to be presented to the user. Cheers Alec

hi all i am building an experimental php search app on top of xapian (using the xapian-bindings). i want to add a feature so that you can search within a search - search on a subset. i haven't yet started working on it, but as far as i can tell, there seems to be no easy way of doing this. can someone point me in the right direction? thanks alec

ah, that explains it ... sorry to waste your time, im going to go sit in the corner for a while now :p is there a reason you have no numeric sort function? cheers alec bugzilla-daemon at ixion.tartarus.org wrote: > http://www.xapian.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=84 > > olly at survex.com changed: > > What |Removed |Added >

Hi everyone, I am having trouble mounting a share on my AD server upon login. I am using pam_mount. Here is log activity when user 'peter' logs in (with Ubuntu client) and is authenticated by AD server. There is a share called 'peter' on the server (netbios name WIN2003) and the mount point is /home/PRIVATE/peter (see later for pam_mount.conf file): ===================== Jul

Hi to all.. I've setup a Samba domain and now having a hard time setting up Unix to Windows user mapping. As an example on the server, user is 'agi', and at the workstation I want an 'Alec Joseph' as the user name. If I log on from a Linux desktop using the alias connection goes through: # sudo tail -f /usr/local/samba/var/log.smbd | grep 'Alec Joseph' Got

Hello, I'm using Xapian 1.0.2 (flint) and matching Search::Xapian. I'm getting: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Xapian::DocNotFoundError', which dumps core. at first it was after adding my 2nd document (to an empty db, although I don't know if that has any bearing) to the database with a replace_document() call. I shifted the first document off the

I'm having a number of problems related to building the latest FLAC release. My build environment: Linux, PPC, gcc 2.95.3 The first has to do with with builing FLAC itself... specifically I can't get id3lib support to build. Whether or not I specify the location of the headers and libraries, the config.log turns up this: configure:9361: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -INONE/include

I just installed Compiz on Ubuntu Feisty (Gutsy does not work on my hardware as per the release notes) via the http://ppa.launchpad.net/amaranth/ubuntu repo, which is the repo suggested in the compiz-fusion website. The machine is a Dell Inspiron E1505 / 6400 with the horrible ATI X1400 graphics card and 1680x1050 monitor. I installed XGL and the proprietary ATI driver, a combination that worked

Hi all, A few of us have been discussing whether we should have a Xapian social gathering of some kind. The current idea is meeting up in a pub in London some time in autumn for drinks and food. However all of this really depends on who might be able to come! It would be a chance to meet other Xapian enthusiasts in an informal social setting and talk about all things search-related (and
