I've never gotten the boolean features to work with version 4.0.1-alpha of MySQL. Also the database will crash with some queries where some of the search words are the same as words in the stopword list (myisam/ft_static.c in the sourcecode)
Download the 4.0.2 source and compile it. Things seem to work a lot better with the 4.0.2. And it won't crash with special combinations of words :) Erlend Stromsvik -----Original Message----- From: Marko Djukic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 1. juli 2002 12:43 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: fulltext searching hi all... i can't seem to get the fulltext searching working perfectly... single search terms it works fine, multiple search terms it also seems to be ok - finding records with any of the search terms. however, if i try the boolean mode it gives out garbage all the time. i try for example an sql query like this: select * from mytable where match(file_text) against('+findthis +andthis -notthis' in boolean mode); various variants of this never find the records, or find ALL the records in the database... when such filters should throw out a couple of records at least. i'm running mysql 4.0.1-alpha on freebsd... and i've set up the tables for fulltext indexes. is this still heavy work-in-progress or should it work? does it work for anyone? thanks, marko --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
