Karthik - I'm concerned that folks will get the wrong idea about Lucene based on your advice about indexing once per day. Lucene does very well with incremental indexing, and it really depends on the nature of the application on the granularity of indexing. There would be no problem for most normal use applications to index when a document is uploaded - especially given that they will be 3-5 page Word documents and not massive PDF files or something that needs to be done in a background process.

My server iswindows/tomcat. I am thinking there will be a limit on the no of files in adirectory. Typically apllication users will load 3-5 page word docs.1. How does one design the system such that there will not be any problem as the users keep uploading their files, even if a million files are reached.2. Is there a sample application that does this.3. Should I have lucene update index after each upload or should I do itlike once a day. Thanks Bib __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
