Xapian discuss - Apr 2006 - omega on debian 0.9.5

Hi,
I've tested omega (cgi) on several sql databases on my local machine in 
which runs Ubuntu, using the version 0.9.4 (installed using apt), and I was 
really satisfied for the results I obtained. I customized a bit the
"query"
template. 

But once I installed omega on the server (using apt for Debian, and omega 
version 0.9.5), I discovered that the relevances didn't work, as you can 
see:
http://www.opencontent.it/cgi-bin/omega/omega?DB=osservatorio&FMT=osservator
io 

I don't know if the problem is related to the template's customization,
nor
to the indexscript: they are the same I used for the omega 0.9.4 
installation I had on my local machine with Ubuntu. 

that's the indexscript I wrote:
 --------------------------------------indexscript------------
id : field=id boolean=Q unique=Q
title : field=title weight=3 index
content : index truncate=300 field=content
taxonomy : field=taxonomy
url : field=url
pubtime : date=yyyymmdd field=pubtime
type : field=type boolean=XT
 ----------------------------------------------------- 


any idea? did you ever see similar problems? 

all the best,
gabriele

When I went to the site, I received the following message:
Exception: Couldn't read format template `osservator' (No such file or 
directory)

Just one question, what is the "io" at the end of the command? Is the 
template named "osservator io", with a space?  If so, I suggest you 
change it to eliminate the space unless you want to escape the the space. 

In any case, be sure the template is world readable, is in the same 
place the omega.conf points to and is spelled right.

Jim.

The index script looks fine, and I don't see how you could customise the
template to cause this (well, unless you hard wired the relevance
percentage and image) and anyway it works on a different box.

It sounds like an bug introduced in 0.9.5, which is rather odd as omega
didn't change much between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5.  Or perhaps an architecture
issue if the two boxes are have different CPUs (or are running e.g. as
x86 and x86-64).

But I've just checked SVN HEAD and that seems to work fine for me on
x86-64 Ubuntu.

Can you try 0.9.5 on the Ubuntu box?  That might help narrow down where
the problem is.
