Xapian devel - Jan 2011 - [Need Help!] Problem about Omega Configuration

Hi there,

I'm using Xapian for the search on our website, and recently I've been
working on improving the search results with Omega. However, I followed exactly
the installation guide but when I tried to test it with the command:

/usr/lib/omega/bin/omega 'P=my search terms' HITSPERPAGE=10

I got this error:

Content-Type: text/html

Content-Type: text/html

Exception: Couldn't read format template `query' (No such file or
directory)

However the template 'query' is right in the template directory, and the
path setting is correct.

Thus, I couldn't figure out why this problem occured and have no idea of how
to fix this. If anyone's got a clue please let me know, and I really
appreciate your kindly help!

I've committed a fix for the double headers here.

Clearly omega thinks otherwise!

I would suggest running omega under strace (assuming your platform has
strace - you don't seem to say what platform you are using) and looking
for where it tries to open the query template to see what path it is
using.

At best they make no sense; at worst people may decide it's safest not
to reply to your "confidential" mail.
