Does it support indexing the contents of pdf files? I have found one project called PDFBox that can be integrated with Lucene to search inside of the pdf files. Currently, Lucene can only search for the pdf filename. I tried with PDFBox and I got the following message when I typed the command: java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexHTML -create -index c:\\index ..
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.pdfbox.pdfparser.PDFParse r). log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly. Can anyone advise? -----Original Message----- From: Doug Cutting [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2003 5:01 AM To: Lucene Users List Subject: Re: Lucene refresh index function (incremental indexing).

To update, try removing the '-create' from the command line. The demo code supports incremental updates. It will re-scan the directory and figure out which files have changed, what new files have appeared and which previously existing files have been removed.
