Summary: Lucene wiki server (lsearch) does not run on Windows Product: MediaWiki extensions Version: any Platform: All OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: Normal Component: Lucene Search AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: kai.ku...@web.de Created an attachment (id=5770) --> (https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/attachment.cgi?id=5770) Patch file to make lsearch2 run on Windows lsearch2 does not run on Windows because it can not deal with symbolic links. I enhanced the implemenation of FSUtils.java (attached) to use NTFS hardlinks on Windows. They are definitly supported on Windows XP, but should also work on Windows 2000 and 2003 Server. Since hardlinks do not support directory links an extra tool is needed: linkd.exe (from Microsoft). It can be downloaded for free: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9d467a69-57ff-4ae7-96ee-b18c4790cffd&displaylang=en Installation: 1. Exchange the exisiting FSUtils.java file with the attached and re-compile LuceneSearch.jar 2. Download the rktools package above and copy linkd.exe in the lsearch2 directory. That's it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
