with the different parameters I still got the same error. My code is very simple, indeed I am only concerned with creating the index and then I will do some private information retrieval experiments on the inverted index file, which I created with the information extracted from the index. That is why I didnt go over optimization until now. the database size I had was ery small compared to 4.5million. My code is as follows:
public static void createIndex() throws CorruptIndexException, LockObtainFailedException, IOException { Analyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(Version.LUCENE_30); Directory indexDir = FSDirectory.open(new File("/media/work/WIKI/indexes/")); boolean recreateIndexIfExists = true; IndexWriter indexWriter = new IndexWriter(indexDir, analyzer, recreateIndexIfExists, IndexWriter.MaxFieldLength.UNLIMITED); indexWriter.setUseCompoundFile(false); File dir = new File(FILES_TO_INDEX_DIRECTORY); File[] files = dir.listFiles(); for (File file : files) { Document document = new Document(); //String path = file.getCanonicalPath(); //document.add(new Field(FIELD_PATH, path, Field.Store.YES, Field.Index.NOT_ANALYZED)); Reader reader = new FileReader(file); document.add(new Field(FIELD_CONTENTS, reader)); indexWriter.addDocument(document); } indexWriter.optimize(); indexWriter.close(); } On Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 2:39 PM, Qi Li <aler...@gmail.com> wrote: > 1.
