1: OpenFTS Problem
Posted by Luis Garcia on 03/30/03 08:14 PM
I am doing a new installation of OACS 4.6. Right now I am setting up PostgreSQL 7.2.3. Everything went fine up until I got to "Prepare PostgreSQL for OpenFTS". I got an error message asking for flex in my system. Now, I installed flex after that and the error is still there. It dos not seem to find flex. What's going on?
Has any one had this problem in the past. What happens if I skip that step and don't set OpenFTS up?
Thanks.

If you don't set OpenFTS up, you won't have full text search capabilities for your OpenACS websites. If you want help with the error you are getting, post more information like the specific error message you get and what database and version you are using, are you on linux, etc.
