I am trying to setup a Lucene installation on a Windows 2000 server. I can not get the IndexWriter to initialize properly. It fails out with an IOException error that says it could not delete backup. I have opened up permissions on the directory I am attempting to create the index in as well as the directory I am attempting to read with no success. Right now the permissions are set to Everyone ALL and I also setup IIS to be able to write to the 2 directories in case that was the problem. Still no luck. Are there any other directories/files which Lucene needs access to that I am missing?
writer = new IndexWriter(indexPath, analyzer, bCreateIndex.booleanValue()); Thanks, Alex Gadea
