RE: Verity Collection CF 9.0.1
Hi there. I haven't had that exact problem, but we have used verity a lot over the years. One thing that is typically helpful is looking at the various log files. Verity seems to have a lot of log files but here are some that I have noted over the years (note - these paths are from CF7 but perhaps they are similar in CF9): \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_server1\log\status.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_server1\diag\diag.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_indexserver1\log\staus.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_indexserver1\log\diag.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\host\log\audit.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\host\log\status.log Here is one from CF9 that I have used recently: E:\ColdFusion9\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_indexserver1\log\status.log Hope that helps!

Updating a Verity Collection on a remote UNIX server
Hello, I've had a Verity Collection created on a UNIX server and because I don't have access to the CF Admin, I have to update the collection through code. Here's what I have so far (that doesn't seem to be working). I'm not seeing any error but its not refreshing either, just taking a second or two and then nothing. What log file in UNIX should I be looking in for this? I do have access to the server files so if I know where to look for an error, I can go from there.

Re: Verity Collection Corruption
I'm encounting 'vague' Verity-errors in an application that uses Verity alot. See earlier message: "I hava a couple of collections on a CF8-machine. Since a couple of months I regularly get the message "Error opening a workspace.: com.verity.organize.WorkSpaceOpenException: All available workers are allocated to open workspaces. Increase ODK Sync Threads to allow more active workspaces. [K2IdxErr_TooManyOpenWorkSpaces]". Most of the time an optimize collection does the trick and everything is back to normal; sometimes only a CF Search Service restart helps. I have tried to fiddle with the Verity-setting (although nog really fool-proof) of the ODK Sync Threads but kept getting this error. I don't have a clue what's creating this...Anyone had this before? Cant find anything on this errormessage. " I did re-enter the cflock exclusive on every update ad cflock readonly on all read-operations using the same cflock name for each collection.

The current version of Verity should not have that problem. Older versions did, and the way I avoided that problem was to use two collections for the same set of data, and index one while allowing searches against the other.

I hate verity, for so many reasons. Mostly because it's a pain to administer.

Re: query-based Verity collection with Ctegories?
I'm a bit late returning to this thread. You said that when you assigned cats, it assigned them to ALL the records in the collection. It looks as if when you pass a query to a collection, it does assign the cats to all the rows. So in order to assign different cats per row, you would need to run multiple CFINDEXes. You would NOT need multiple collections. So I'd simply do N queries based on category and add the data like so. If this was covered already in the thread, sorry - responding uqickly.

Any thoughts? That's odd, I've not had that problem, damn QoQ! Also, if you are wanting to maintain the order of the verity results the QoQ may still be neccessary / useful. Doing a DB select with the IN() clause will ignore the verity order. Sorry I can't help with the casting.

Re: query-based Verity collection with Ctegories?
hi Dominic, for some reason your approach with filtering verity results with a qoq gives me an error: Query Of Queries syntax error. Encountered "vSearch key. Incorrect conditional expression, Expected one of [like|null|between|in|comparison] condition, my qoq is: SELECT * FROM vSearch, dbSearch WHERE vSearch.key = dbSearch.image_id if i switch the columns in the WHERE clause around (WHERE dbSearch.image_id = vSearch.key), i get error: Query Of Queries syntax error. Encountered "KEY. Incorrect conditional expression, Expected one of [like|null|between|in|comparison] condition, Unrecognized character in operand, the qoq syntax is fine, as it works fine with any other qoq... is it due to one query being Verity resultset? any ideas?

Re: query-based Verity collection with Ctegories?
oh, forgot to ask another question! can, and if yes then how, categoryTree argument be used with a db query-based collection? What's the advantage of defining categoryTree over not defining it? again, there is scarce info available on the subject... If a Verity-indexed photo is assigned facets->categories->keywords, and a category is defined for the assigned keywords, will categoryTree argument hold the parent facet and category for a keyword? how can that be used then in search or search results? thanks, Azadi Saryev Sabai-dee.com http://www.sabai-dee.com/ Raymond Camden wrote: > On Tue, Apr 1, 2008 at 1:36 AM, Azadi Saryev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> 1) does a database query-based Verity collection support Categories? or >> is it supported only for document/directory based collections? >> > > Yes.

Re: query-based Verity collection with Ctegories?
Pete, thanks for your insight. That's the way I was going to go initially, before I started wondering if I could use categories in a db query-based collection and if they will allow me to search photos of specific category only. As I said in answers to Dominic's and Ray's posts, categories do work, but not the way I thought they would... I guess I will g the usual way of doing full-text search with Verity and then filtering the db query resultset, which returns a lot more photo data than a Verity collection holds, with results returned from Verity search. I like Dominic's way of doing the filtering, which seems to outperform the IN/NOT IN () filtering...

Re: query-based Verity collection with Ctegories?
Hi Ray, I appreciate your dropping in on the thread - love your blog! My doubt about support of categories for a db query-based collection was due to the lack of info on the subject. I did since find one direct reference on the subject in the CF8 Developers Guide. However, the categories in a collection do not work as I thought they would - they do not 'sort' the items in a collection by category, instead selected categories are just assigned to all items in a collection. So to be able to allow a user to search photos in selected categories only, i will have to create a separate collection for each category and then search multiple collections... Did I get that right? At least my tests have shown that that's how it works... Another question I thought you may be able to clarify for me: the Verity limit of 125,000 indexed documents on CF8 Standard - is that a limit per collection or for all collections combined? If it is a combined limit then I can easily run over it having multiple collections for each photo facet, category and keyword...

Re: query-based Verity collection with Ctegories?
Dominic, thanks for your tip. It looks interesting... So you basically perform a full-text search using Verity, and search for other 'filters' using db, and then filter the db-based search to return only results matched by Verity search, avoiding the IN () comparison. Did I get that right? That looks like the solution for me, as I will have to return a lot more data about each photo that a Verity collection can index... I have tried using Categories in a collection, and though categories are supported for db query-based collection, they do not work the way I though they would... Short of creating a separate collection for each possible facet-category-keyword combination, I can't achieve what I wanted with them... I thought having my b query group the records by, say, facet, and then having all facets listed as categories in the collection would 'sort' the collection by facets, but instead all the photos were assigned all the categories in the collection... If your approach really outperforms the basic recommended IN () filtering, that's the way forward i guess! Thanks for your input!

Re: Unable to Create a Verity Collection
I had the same issue, and for me it was the permissions problem. When I tried to create the collection the first time it gave me the same error you had, however it did create the directory I had setup for the Path. I compared that directory to the other collection directories and all the other collections had permissions of drwxr-xr-x (chmod 755), however this new collection had drwxr--r-- (chmod 744). I ran the command "chmod 755" on that directory, then went back to the CF Administrator and successfully created the collection. I'm not sure why it doesn't work correctly, since I use to be able to create collections without this problem. I've done several software upgrades to the server since the last collection creation, so my guess is that one of those upgrades jacked this up. I guess I'll live with it, until I (or someone) else comes across the real solution to this issue. > [CFMX 7 Multi-Server on Ubuntu Linux] > > I'm trying to create a collection from the CF Admin, but I'm getting: > > Unable to create collection testMe. > Unable to create collection testme. > An error occurred while creating the collection: com.verity.api. > administration.ConfigurationException: Fail to create the index. > (-6220) > > I'm not sure where to go from here... > > Thanks, > Jamie ~| Download the latest ColdFusion 8 utilities including Report Builder, plug-ins for Eclipse and Dreamweaver updates. http;//www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=labs%5adobecf8%5Fbeta Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:292451 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
Re: Complex Verity collection...
Since I seem to be on a string of questions that don't seem to have any answers from the list, I have found a solution for this problem. Hopefully, it will be useful to someone else, as it took me the better part of a day of brainstorming to come up with this solution. To recap, the problem is that I have two Verity collections, one for document data, the other for database data. If a document exists, it can also have a record in the database, but a record in the database doesn't necessarily have a document associated with it. The problem is that there are going to be duplicate results where a record exists in both collections. The solution (with code): First, index a document: Note that I set a value in "custom1" that is the PK of the documents table Now, index a database query: SELECT * FROM tblLessons WHERE intLessonID = 1 This is a test table, so there's only one record in it, with an ID of 1, which is also the value for "custom1" Now, search both collections: Since it's possible for a search term to show up in the document collection that doesn't show up in the database (and vice-versa), I created a list of custom1 values from the document collection to make sure there were no duplicate custom1 values in the final result: Now, using a UNION inside a Query of Queries, create a unified resultset that doesn't have any duplicate custom1 values: SELECT [custom1], [category], [key], [score], [size], [summary], [title], [type], [url] FROM search_doc UNION SELECT [custom1], [category], [key], [score], [size], [summary], [title], [type], [url] FROM search WHERE custom1 NOT IN () And that's it. Keep in mind that this is test code and has hardcoded values where there would normally be variables, and things like that, but this solved my original problem. From this resultset, I can create a result page that will link to the document's database page, which will also contain a link to the physical document itself. I hope this helps somebody out there, and I hope the code wasn't too difficult to follow. Considering the tortured path that this issue had me traveling down, I'm surprised at how simple the end solution actually is.

Complex Verity collection...
I'm building a document management application where I want to be able to index BOTH binary document data (word, excel, powerpoint, rtf, PDF, etc.) AND database data in the same collection; simply, a user can upload a document, and when they upload the document, they can also save a variety of data (title, author, keywords, etc.) to a related database table. However, not all of the records in the database will have corresponding files (all files will have database records). The issue is that when indexing database content, you generally use the PK for the table as the "key" field in the collection when you use an "update" action on the cfindex. However, when documenting files, the key gets set as the physical file location that was indexed. This means that if I were to add both document and database content to a collection, all of the document records would have duplicate records (the database portion). I would like to avoid this. Has anyone dealt with this problem, and if so, how did you proceed? What I am thinking of doing is actually having two collections, a "temp" collection that indexes ONLY the files, and the "real" collection that indexes the databse; when a new record is created, I create the DB record in the index from a DB resultset, then I index the file in the temp collection, then I retrieve that files' record from the temp collection and update the DB collection using the database primary key.

[CFMX 7 Multi-Server on Ubuntu Linux] I'm trying to create a collection from the CF Admin, but I'm getting: Unable to create collection testMe. Unable to create collection testme. An error occurred while creating the collection: com.verity.api.administration.ConfigurationException: Fail to create the index. (-6220) I'm not sure where to go from here...

Cannot Remove Verity Collection!
Hello All, I have a verity collection which I have deleted via cfAdministrator, the collection appears to be removed but when I check the file structure the folders still remain, I have tried to manually remove the folder which has worked in the past. However I keep getting a 'cannot delete file 0004.ddd' that this file is still being used by another process. I have topped cf and the k2Server service just incase either was still connected to it. Unfortunatly I still cannot remove the file, can anybody help? Why does cfAdministrator not remove this directory structure when the cfAdministrator shows it has been removed.

Re: Detecting if a Verity Collection Exists in CFMX7...
It would be a hack, but check to see if the named collection's directory exists in your collection repository? You could also do something like do a cfcolleciton action="list" in your application.cfc's onApplicationStart and dump the query structure into the application scope, then do a QoQ when needed to see if the query exists. Just remember to add a record to that query object if you add a new collection. Pete On 1/12/06, Dan G.

RE: Detecting if a Verity Collection Exists in CFMX7...
>admin API perhaps? It seems as if the admin may use the command. I've got 64 collections on my box and this tag takes like 20 seconds to run. It takes forever for the admin page to load. I looked on CFLIB.org for an existing UDF and found one, but it uses the action as well--which takes way to long to run. What I did was re-write the UDF to the code at the bottom of this message. What this code does is attempt to use to search a collection. If an error is thrown that has the string "does not exist" then I return false, otherwise the function returns true. This seems to runs much more efficiently in my tests. -Dan ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:229375 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Detecting if a Verity Collection Exists in CFMX7...
I'm need to detect if a collection exists and if it doesn't, then I need to create the collection. In previous versions of CF, if you performed the on a collection it would throw an error. This meant you could just wrap the code in a cftry and than use a cfcatch to skip processing. In CFMX7 they've added a to retrieve all the collections which you can use to see if a collection exists. The problem is, is taking 20+ seconds to run--which is way too long. Is there a faster way to determine if a collection exists? I know I could check for the directory, but this doesn't really confirm if the collection is actually registered. -Dan ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:229329 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Re: Verity Collection
The original developer of this web site made a serious mess, I'm still looking for certain files to make changes I personally have never seen a web site with so many useless files in so many locations but as I said I'm new to cold fusion so if you can point me in the direction of what file is most likely to contain the information you need it would help tremendously. Now like I said I have done some things with different cold fusion sites however this is the first cf application I have seen that does not use a global file for anything it would appear he puts all code in every file. Plain and simple the entire application needs a rewrite but I'm really not sure where all strings are that you might need to see. As far as I can tell this is the search info you might be looking for. EXACT MATCHES FOR '#UCASE(exactSearch)#'. #mySearchQuery.recordCount# Matching Items ]*>", "", "ALL")> #exactSearch#", "ALL")> #iCount#. #MySearchQuery.Title# #DollarFormat(mySearchQuery.custom2)# #searchSummary# (#Round(score * 100)#% Match) THERE WERE NO EXACT MATCHES FOR '#UCASE(exactSearch)#'. And assuming I have found the information you looking for this would be the cfindex guess. SELECT itemName, itemDescription, itemKeywords, itemID, itemThumbnail, itemListPrice, itemLeaseNumber FROM tblItem, tblkItemStatus WHERE tblItem.itemStatusID = tblkItemStatus.itemStatusID AND tblkItemStatus.itemStatusMainID = 2 FINISHED INDEXING THE ITEM QUERY FINISHED OPTIMIZING THE ITEM COLLECTION At 02:29 PM 11/17/2004, you wrote: >can you post your cfindex tag code? oh, and your cfsearch code too. > >Doug > >On Wed, 17 Nov 2004 14:00:34 -0700, Jason Smith ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > Anyone out there real familiar with verity collections, I'm having trouble > > getting one to index correctly.

Verity Collection
Anyone out there real familiar with verity collections, I'm having trouble getting one to index correctly. I'll give us many details as possible if I left anything out just let me know. The server is a Coldfusion 6.1MX on a windows 2003 server. Now myself I'm very new to cold fusion and just trying to learn more. I have setup a few sites for customers but this is the first site that uses a verity collection. Now on to the problem I have read a few resources that all point to creating the verity collection and then index the collection. Well I called the previous hosting company they moved from to get the exact settings however the indexing of verity collections if not written down doesn't appear to be retrievable. So this is where I am stuck I have the collection created. name itemcollection mapped yes online yes external no language english path c:\inetpub\mysite\admin\verity\collections\itemcollection Now for the indexing this is the problem I run into I'm assuming it should be indexing the search directory since that is where all the items have created detail pages. File extensions since looking in that directory there are mainly html pages with 2 cfm pages I'm assuming html pages are the only things I want to index. path c:\inetpub\mysite\search return url http://www.mysite.com/search After I let it index the files and I go to the test search engine and run a search the results are wrong, first off you can search for anything and get a return of 100+ matches which is the company name not a product. Then checking the link of the result found I come across another problem. http://www.mysite.com/search/itemDetail_C:/Inetpub/mysite/search/itemSearch.html.html Every result has this as the url which obviously isn't correct. I have spent a few hours reviewing forums and reading posts, book information different things so far I have yet to find a fix for this so if anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it.

Re: Index Verity Collection - cannot load style.ddd
Your first problem was following ANYTHING I said. =) This .ddd file needs to be in a couple of places. It needs to be in your collection folder. If you are using a CFCOLLECTION created collection, it is probably needed in the collection root\files\styles subfolder. If it is an exteranally created collection that you are calling with the external switch, it should be in the collection root\styles folder It also needs to be in your cf default folder, so that new collections also pick it up when created. (Probably in both the root\styles and root\files\styles (This is normally found in cfusionMX\lib\common\style and cfusionmx\lib\common\style\files) If you are not using CFCOLLECTION to create your collections, but instead are using the sdk (vspider or walker or mkvdk) it must be in the folder specified on the command line call that creates the collection. If you are sure it is in all the places it should be, can you send me the error you are getting, and the call you are making to get it?

There is a style.ddd in the default directory(cfusionmx\lib\common\style and

collections style folder when I create a new collection.
The style.ddd is the original and looks like this:

Re: Index Verity Collection - cannot load style.ddd
How are you creating the index? Are you using the cold fusion cfindex tag, or are you using the vdkmk utility? (Or vspider or other indexer?) I am asking this because this will tell me where to have you look for the verity style files. If you are using cfmx and the cfindex tag, and are creating a new colection, it will grab the default styles and use them to create the new collection. the styles should be in: cfusionmx\lib\common\style and cfusionmx\lib\common\style\file If you have already created the collection, the style files will be stored where the collection itself lives. If you are using the defaults, this will be in cfusionmx\verity\collections\COLLECTIONNAME\file\style Check to make sure you have a style.ddd file in each of the above folders. If not, you need to put one in there.

Why Can't I Delete a Verity Collection
[CF5, VerityK2, Win2K] When a Verity collection gets corrupted, sometimes it's quite hard to delete the collection directory from c:\cfusion\verity\collections. It claims that the directory is in use by another process. Which process is using this directory? I've stopped the CF Application Service and tried to delete. Same with the Verity K2 service. I've also tried deleting the collection using the CF Admin and CFCOLLECTION delete tag. I've killed all vspider jobs. I've even deleted the collection's registry entry. So, what can I do to reliably delete a corrupted collection, short of a reboot? Thanks, Jamie P.S. Is there any way in windows to see who or which process is tying up a file?

I'm pretty sure mp3 is NOT a format Verity (at least the version in CF) supports. However, you can find _numerous_ Java classes out there that parse mp3s files.

Okay, Then get 2000 rows, use the cfindex tag with action=update query=my2000rows then do a cflocation to the same script starting at row 2001 remember to exclusively lock all access to the verity collection while you are updating it, because not doing so will cause it to corrupt.

RE: updating large verity collection
Look, it's tuned, it's optimized, it's indexed. I'm not asking how to run this query better ... I'm asking for other options. If I want, I can select 2,000 rows (5 seconds to run this query) at a time with this query, but that's rather ridiculous to contemplate when this database reaches 100,000 rows (though before then I'll probably need to break thing up into separate collections). I need something that can update Verity 10,000 rows at a time (or hell, maybe even only 5,000 rows), at least. Surely, somebody has dealt with this problem before and has some suggestions.

Then outputting the links so that file results point to the file, and db results point to the page that displays the content. Is there a more effective way?

You can create collections programmatically using the CFCOLLECTION tag. However, I don't think you can use more than one language with the same collection. This makes sense, if you think about it - the choice of a language will affect how Verity works with the contents of the index. If you need to use different languages, create different collections.

Re: Excluding a directory from a Verity Collection
There is a tag from the tag gallery called cf_pathindex that does exactly what you want to do. i.e. exclude the Frontpage Extensions directory from being indexed. Doesn't require manipulating the useraccounts. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2001 1:13 AM Subject: RE: Excluding a directory from a Verity Collection > Have thought of a possible way around this (haven't tried it yet though). > > As I'm running the page which indexes the directory structure as a scheduled > task, I could create a local user on the server, with "deny" access to the > directory I don't want to index, then use this username and password to run > the scheduled task. > > Alex > > > -Original Message- > > From: Dave Watts [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: 07 November 2001 17:45 > > To: CF-Talk > > Subject: RE: Excluding a directory from a Verity Collection > > > > > Does anyone know if there's a way to exclude a directory > > > from being indexed, if it is in the directory tree below > > > the "directory path" specified for the collection? > > > > There's no way to do this directly.
