Hello

1- I have created a customed configuration file named jforum-custom.conf under WEB-INF/config/ directory.
2- I have added the following key and value into it: installed=true
3- I have redeployed the JForum application in Websphere

I can see the old topics and add new ones but when I use the search option it only works with the newly added topics ignoring totally the old ones.


Any ideas ?

Thanks

That sounds like you did an update of an existing JForum installation? if so, did you bring over the Lucene index (the jforumLuceneIndex directory in WEB-INF)? If not, you'll have to reindex all posts: Admin Control Panel -> Lucene Statistics -> Click "by message ID" and enter 0 and 10000 (any number that is significantly higher than how many posts you have) -> Select "Recreate index from scratch" and click "Start". Reindexing can take a while if you have many posts; check the log files for progress updates. Once it's finished, all posts should be visible in the search.

Thank you for your quick response.

Exactly. There was already an installation and later I added the jforum-custom.conf file under WEB-INF/config/ directory. This way I have managed not to create a new database every time the application is redeployed.

I am a newbie with JForum. What you propose me:
- I suppose I have to do it from http://lucene.apache.org/ or
- Can I do it directly in the database?

Thanks

You'd do it inside your JForum installation. The link "Admin Control Panel" is at the bottom of each page, if you're logged in as an administrator.
