MediaWiki_SVN+Lucene-Search2_SVN+MWSearch_SVN = ZERO search results
|
|
I've been *trying* for *a very long time now* to implement Lucene-search
functionality on my MediaWiki site -- I've spent
Hours+Days+*Weeks*+*Months*troubleshooting this
*very issue* - I'm giving this one last effort, I am hoping *SOMEONE* will
be able to *help me*, otherwise I am thinking of moving away from MediaWiki
entirely (which would make me a very sad panda), and will painstakingly
import my MediaWiki into Drupal - then try out their neat sounding-module
called Drupal::Search_Attachments
module<http://drupal.org/project/search_attachments>.
I have put in over 1 year's worth of work into my MediaWiki-based wiki. I
truly *need* the solution that
Extension:Lucene-search<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Lucene-search>
+Extension:MWSearch
<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MWSearch>offers, but it has
been next to impossible for me to implement on my
Slackware server. Who knows, my trouble could very well be something I am
doing wrong! I'm human enough to admit that if it turns out to be the
case...
This is why I come for assistance, I am thinking of posting to the MediaWiki
forums too, and linking here (hope that's OK), as I really, *really* want to
get Extension:Lucene-search<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Lucene-search>
+Extension:MWSearch
<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MWSearch>working for me!
I have been trying to get
Extension:Lucene-search<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Lucene-search>
+Extension:MWSearch
<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MWSearch>working for over
6months now, and posted alot of my previous issues
*HERE<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:Lucene-search#MediaWiki.2BLucene-Search.2BMWSearch_.3D_ZERO_search_results_.3F.3F.21.40.23.3F.21>
* at the MediaWiki Lucene-Search Talk
page<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:Lucene-search#MediaWiki.2BLucene-Search.2BMWSearch_.3D_ZERO_search_results_.3F.3F.21.40.23.3F.21>,
but was unable to find any solutions to my problem. I even tried the
newer+more-up-to-date
Extension:Lucene-search<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Lucene-search>
+Extension:MWSearch <http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MWSearch> setup
*to no avail*.
I am BACK, now with a *brand new computer* (well, it's actually
older-hardware, but newly formatted hard-drive), a freshly installed
OS<http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=A_freshly_installed_OS&action=edit&redlink=1>,
*a very basic website* with some basic data input to test search
functionality
This is my current overall system setup;
- Slackware 12.1 <http://www.slackware.com/>, on i686 Pentium III (Linux
2.6.24.5-smp = Slackware 12.1's
generic-smp-2.6.24.5-smp<http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=12.1/kernel-generic-smp-2.6.24.5_smp-i686-2>kernel)
- MediaWiki: 1.13alpha
(SVN<http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/phase3>06-25-2008)
- PHP: 5.2.6 (I used Slackware 12.1's PHP v5.2.6 update
package<http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=12.1/php-5.2.6-i486-1_slack12.1>
)
- MySQL: 5.0.51b
- MediaWiki Extension(s): [Extension:lucene-search|MWSearch]] SVN
06-25-2008<http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/MWSearch/>,
and Lucene-search2<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Lucene-search>
SVN
06-25-2008<http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/lucene-search-2/>,
+ I downloaded & installed
mwdumper.jar<http://download.wikimedia.org/tools/mwdumper.jar>into the
Lucene-search2 "lib" dir = /usr/local/search/ls2
- other tools:
jre-6u6-i586-3<http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=12.1/jre-6u6-i586-3>,
jdk-1_5_0_09-i586-1<http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=12.1/jdk-6u6-i586-3>,
apache-ant-1.7.0-i486<http://slackbuilds.org/repository/12.1/development/apache-ant/>,
rsync-3.0.2-i486-1<http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=12.1/rsync-3.0.2-i486-1>
I've gone over and over and *OVER* the directions per
Extension:Lucene-search<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Lucene-search>and
Extension:MWSearch <http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MWSearch> pages,
I just cannot get this working properly on my box, now that I tried on a new
install with new everything, I am convinced this is not a problem on my end,
but I could be wrong --- I have documented EVERYTHING I did from install, to
now since I've been over this so many times, maybe by me posting my logs
here and what I did from begining to end, someone might "see something" I'm
missing?? Please HELP! =)
If you might be able to assist, but need more information from me, I've got
it for you = right

I am posting the link to where all my configs and logs are so that I don't
take up a ton of space on this message, hopefully someone can help me!
Thanks!!
