Search on UNIX Returns No Documents Found

ID: Q219260

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows

SYMPTOMS

When you issue a search on a FrontPage Web running on UNIX, the search returns a "No Documents Found" message, even though there are documents that contain the keywords you are searching for.


RESOLUTION

On the server, do the following:

  1. Log on to the server with root access and go to the directory where the FrontPage Server Administrator resides (by default, /usr/local/FrontPage/currentversion/bin)


  2. Type ./fpsrvadm.exe -o recalc -p portnumber -w webname

    where portnumber is the port your server is running on (80 by default) and where webname is the name of the Web containing the search (for the root Web use a /)


  3. Type ./fpsrvadm.exe -o chown -p portnumber -w webname -xu username -xg groupname

    where username is the name your webserver runs as and groupname is the group your webserver runs as.


Note: Always chown the content after making changes on the server side. This ensures that any content that was changed, and thus chowned to the user you are logged on as, will be owned by the correct user and group.
