Hello, My machine is Ubuntu 7.10. I am working with Apache Lucene. I have done with indexer and tried with command line Searcher (the default command line included in Lucene package: http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_3_1/demo2.html). When I use this at command line:
java Searcher -query algorithm it works and returns a list of results to me. Here 'algorithm' is the keyword to search. However, I want to have a web search interface written in PHP, I use PHP exec() to call this Searcher from my PHP script: exec("java Searcher -query algorithm ", $arr, $retVal); [I also tried: exec("java Searcher -query 'algorithm' ", $arr, $retVal)] It does not work. I print the value of $retVal, it is 1. I come back and try: exec("java Searcher -query algorithm 2>&1 ", $arr, $retVal); I receive: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/lucene/analysis/Analyzer and $retVal is 1 In the command line Searcher.java of Lucene, it imports many libraries, is this the problem? import org.apache.lucene.analysis.Analyzer; import org.apache.lucene.analysis.standard.StandardAnalyz er; .... I guess this is the problem of path. However, I do not know how to fix it because it works in command line ($CLASSPATH points to the .jar file of Lucene library). May be PHP does not know $CLASSPATH. So, I add Lucene lib to $PATH: export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/lucene-core-2.3.1.jar:/usr/lib However, I get the same error message when I try: exec("java Searcher -query algorithm 2>&1 ", $arr, $retVal); Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/lucene/analysis/Analyzer Could you please help?
