Intermedia 8.1.7.4 Linux problems:
Janine Sisk mentioned
INSO filter Intermedia problems
with Oracle 8.1.7.4 (only, not earlier 8.1.7 releases) under Linux.
When I tried using the OpenACS Site-Wide-Search with the Static-Pages
package, Intermedia clearly wasn't working right. In sqlplus, doing
exec sws_service.rebuild_index; gave me:
/ora8/m01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/ctx/bin/ctxhx: relocation error: /ora8/m01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/ctx/lib/libsc_ut.so: undefined symbol: stat
Turns out, that problem is easy to reproduce from the command line.
Just do:
$ $ORACLE_HOME/ctx/bin/ctxhx mydoc.pdf mydoc.html
Patch 2525701
(readme)
for
Base Bug 2037255
appears to fix this problem.
I decided to put the patch files from
p2037255_8174_LINUX.zip into
"$ORACLE_BASE/patches/2525701/" so I wouldn't lose track
of them.
When I ran patch.sh per Oracle's instructions. I got
some rather disurbing errors:
ls: /ora8/m01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/bin/ctxhx: No such file or directory
expr: syntax error
./patch.sh: [: -gt: unary operator expected
./patch.sh: [: -eq: unary operator expected
./patch.sh: [: 38168: unary operator expected
but it basically seemed to work.
After that, the libsc_ut.so: undefined symbol: stat went
away. But oddly, running $ORACLE_HOME/ctx/bin/ctxhx from
the command line. And Site-Wide-Search now seems to be indexing my
PDF files (from the OpenACS Static-Pages package) fine, but doesn't
seem to be indexing any of my HTML files at all. TODO: Why?
What's going on here? --atp@piskorski.com, 2002/12/16 16:16 EST
