- Description
I'm running a OpenSuSE Linux server and Tikiwiki 5.1 and trying to use search indexing to search within uploaded files.
This is working fine for other mime types but not MS Word documents. E.g.
"application/pdf" works using "pdftotext %1 -" as it's file handler
and
"application/vnd.ms-excel" works with "strings %1".I've tried using strings and catdoc, but neither are populating the the search_data field in the tiki_files table. I've tried reindexing and re-uploading the file. The file_type field in the DB is also correctly matched to the mime type.
Both strings and catdoc work successfully from the command line so I'm inclined to write a script to run the commands from cron and update the data into the database. But this is obviously a bit of a bodge so I'd rather have it done natively.
I've tried to get help in IRC and have posted onto the forums, but have been unsuccessful in getting the problem fixed.
- Workaround
- I've currently installed a fresh copy onto a different Ubuntu install and the search function has worked straight away. Unless someone has a suggestion to why this has happened, I'll keep fiddling around and maybe someone will come back on the forums
