SYMPTOMSWhen you are using the FrontPage 98 Search Form on a multi-homed Internet Information Server (IIS) computer with Index Server 1.1 installed, the following error message may appear: The search returns no results. CAUSEThere is no catalog set up for the virtual server where the Search Form resides. STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows. MORE INFORMATION
When FrontPage detects Index Server, the Search Form automatically
integrates by pointing itself to a file named Index.htm0.idq. This file is
located in the _vti_bin directory.
WORKAROUNDTo work around this problem, use either of the following two methods: METHOD 1Set up Index Server with a catalog for the virtual server. The instructions can be found in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:Q183731 How to Index and Create a Catalog for a New Web SiteThe article is located on the Web at the following location: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q183/7/31.asp METHOD 2Add the following line to the Frontpg.ini file:
This change forces the Search Form to use the WAIS search built into
FrontPage instead of using Index Server.
You must open the Web where the Search Form resides and recalculate the hyperlinks. Recalculating allows the FrontPage Server Extensions to incorporate the changes made to the Frontpg.ini file. In addition, recalculating updates the indexes, ensuring that all documents are available to be searched. NOTE: The FrontPg.ini file is stored in the directory in which Windows or Windows NT is installed. ExampleFor Windows 95 - C:\Windows\FrontPg.iniFor Windows NT - C:\Winnt\FrontPg.ini When this line is added to the beginning of the [Frontpage 3.0] section of the Frontpg.ini file, the setting is global for all FrontPage Webs. However, this can be done on a per-virtual server or per-subweb basis by specifying the setting under that particular server's IP address. ExampleFor a virtual server with the IP address of 172.31.255.255, you see the following section in the FrontPg.ini file:
