Forum OpenACS Q&A: openfts 3.2

1: openfts 3.2

Posted by Erik Rogneby on 12/19/02 02:20 AM

Is anyone here running openfts-tcl 3.2?

If so did you have any issues upgrading? I have a pg dump that I am pretty sure used a earlier version which is looking for relkov.so (which I think can be taken care of with the sql patch in the contrib directory), but also I'm getting:

ERROR: DefineIndex: operator class "gist__intbig_ops" not supported by access method "gist"

Basically I am wondering if anyone has openfts-tcl 3.2 working with the openacs?

Thanks!

Erik,

I have OpenFTS working with PG 7.2.3 but can't get it to work with PG 7.3.

I am running openfts 3.2 with no probs on PG 7.2.3. Also running it on RH RPM 7.2.2. Both are using OpenACS.

I keep on having a problem initing it. Getting (off the top of my head -- away from the installation now) someting along the lines of

Search::OpenFTS::Index::init opt does not exist

or some such thing. Comes from /openfts-driver/www/admin/initialize-2.tcl

Go to the site map and set the tcl source path for the openfts driver. Then restart the server and try again.

It has been set, as described in the "Next Steps" of the doc. I sure will double check it, but I remember setting it...

I'm getting an error while running the configure script on Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2. It just hangs there when creating Makefile.global:

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile.global

ps shows a sed process invoked by configure that uses all of the CPU time but never seems to finish whatever it's doing.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Try deleting the configure script and then run 'autoconf' in the same directory without any args. Then try running configure again.

Thanks Dan, but the problem was that I was trying to use the Tcl 8.3.2 tree under AOLserver. configure didn't seem to like that. When I used /usr/lib/tcl8.3/ (with the tcl8.3-dev Debian package installed) then it worked fine (horray for #openacs!).

Thanks again.

The fact that aolserver is now using a stock tcl distro will help alleviate these kinds of problems in the future. I've been using aolserver 3.5.1 for a short time, and I use the same tcl installation for both aolserver and for a standalone tclsh. I find to be quite nice, since openfts is designed to work with both.
