When binary file indexing is not working, there are a few things to check.
|
Problem |
Possible reason |
Solution |
|---|---|---|
|
Large files are not indexed or do not turn up in the search results |
MySQL packet size too small |
Increase the pcket size (1M by default) to a larger value (16M is the maximum allowed) |
|
Acrobat pdf files are not properly indexed |
ghostscript (older version) is used |
Install the xpdf package and use pdftotext in a custom script. |
|
Acrobat pdf files take ages before they are indexed |
ghostscript is used |
See solution above |
|
Sometimes, a file (pdf, word, ...) is not indexed, with other users there are no problems |
The mime settigs of the browser may be wrong |
Edit the browser settings (look for spurious mime types connected to a certain filename extension for mozilla based browsers) |
|
MS Excel files are not indexed (ezP 3.2) |
MIME-Type for Excel is not defined in 3.2
