Greetings. I'm trying to set up my first ASPseek search engine. I believe that I've
got the indexer set up correctly. It appears to run normally and returns this
statistics report:
aspseek@www2:~$ sbin/index -S
Loading configuration from /usr/local/aspseek/etc/db.conf
Loading configuration from /usr/local/aspseek/etc/ucharset.conf
Loading configuration from /usr/local/aspseek/etc/stopwords.conf
Loading configuration from /usr/local/aspseek/etc/aspseek.conf
ASPseek database statistics
Status Expired Total
-----------------------------
0 3 3 Not indexed yet
200 0 2863 OK
301 0 14 Moved Permanently
302 0 1 Moved Temporarily
404 0 171 Not found
-----------------------------
Total 3 3052
However, using http://www2/cgi-bin/s.cgi never gives any results. It seems to run
correctly, but the response is always "No Results".
This is the corresponding entry in the dlog.log file:
www2:/etc# cat /var/lib/aspseek/dlog.log
Starting search daemon from ASPseek v.1.2.10
No lastmod file - disabling lastmod-related functionality
Can't open file /var/lib/aspseek//ranksd: No such file or directory
Started accepting queries on port 12345
Error: MySQL server has gone away in <SELECT word_id FROM wordurl WHERE word = :1>
Searching the archives of the aseek-users list for "server has gone away" produced two
threads, one which seemed related to this problem. It mentioned allow_max_packets in
/etc/my.conf. I already have this set to 10M:
www2:/etc# egrep -v "^$|^#" /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[client]
port = 3306
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
[safe_mysqld]
err-log = /var/log/mysql/mysql.err
[mysqld]
user = mysql
pid-file = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
port = 3306
log = /var/log/mysql.log
basedir = /usr
datadir = /var/lib/mysql
tmpdir = /tmp
language = /usr/share/mysql/english
skip-locking
set-variable = key_buffer=16M
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=10M
set-variable = thread_stack=128K
skip-innodb
[mysqldump]
quick
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=10M
[mysql]
[isamchk]
set-variable = key_buffer=16M
The max_packets value seems to be in use:
www2:/etc/aspseek# mysqladmin -u root -p variables |grep packet
Enter password:
| max_allowed_packet | 10484736
Here's my config files:
www2:/etc/aspseek# egrep -v "^$|^#" /usr/local/aspseek/etc/searchd.conf

I've got the directory /etc/aspseek aliased to /usr/local/aspseek/etc:
www2:/etc/aspseek# ls -l /etc/aspseek

So, I'm stumped. Anyone with any suggestions of what I could try?
Thanks in advance for your help.
