Searching in folders recursively does not work from directories other than /okm:root

[fonnerk]

If I do an call to find() via the OKMSearch web service with the path /okm:root, it does a search recursively across all nested folders in the directory... If I change the path to /okm:root/ then it only searches the immediate directory only... Now if I search any path other than root such as /okm:root/Books it will search for items directly in the path /okm:root/Books but not in nested the directories under/okm:root/Books such as items in the directory /okm:root/Books/Electronics. What am I doing wrong... are their additional parameters I need to pass to do a recursive search from a subdirectory or should I format the path differently to do a recursive search from a nested subdirectory? Below are some sample soap requests to demonstrate.

Also forgot to mention... I viewed these result via soap services against OpenKM 6.3.0 on a linux system with a postgresql database

When you do the search from openkm view is not going right ? this is the first point.

[jllort]

Did you tryed the search from normal UI, is going right there or not ?

[fonnerk]

ooo... good point. I should have looked there first... If you choose a folder path in the advanced screen then the behavior seems to only search that folder. That surprised me. I was expecting for it to search recursively beneath that folder. In windows if you search a path, it searches everything beneath that path. Is this type of functionality not available with openkm, is my system not working correctly, or am I doing it incorrectly? Seems surprising to me if you can't search for something beneath a folder (including it's sub folders).

Thanks!

We've introduced this improvement later, it's quite complex to explain. Basically the problem was on hierarchy computing cost by search engine, I will not extend you on technical questions ( when we had done the major change from version 5.x to 6.2 this feature was disabled ). On latest versions we've yet reintroduced. If you do no have a checkbox at the right then this feature is still not present on this version. You can compare with demo.openkm.com where is yet present.

The changes between 5.x to 6.x is one of the most radical we've done.

Stefano, have you managed to solve it?

In latest OpenKM 6.3.1 it searches in folder and subfolders. If it is not working this way, please use a recent night build.

[relixman]

As I have the same problem with searching subfolders, I would like to know when the fix will be available in the Community Edition. At the moment only V.6.3.0 can be downloaded. Thanks for fixing it soon.

[jllort]

When pavila talks about nighly build is because you're able to download and install what will be next release http://integration.openkm.com and consider it as 6.3.1 http://wiki.openkm.com/index.php/Migrat ... 3_to_6.3.1 ( here we're applying only patches )

[jllort]

I think soon, but there's still no oficial date for it. Meanwhile can use without problems nightly build, really version 6.3.1 will be a release of one nightly build. On code actually we're only introducing patches.

[jllort]

For your tranquility, will be few changes before we release actual nightly build, because from one month to present we've been talking several times to release it, but we've not found the 2-3 hours for doing it.

[pavila]

You can download the nightbuild from http://integration.openkm.com/6.3/

[jllort]

My colleague pavila suggest you to upgrade to latest source code where the problem is solved. The migration guide you must follow from 6.3.0 to integration.openkm.com war file is http://wiki.openkm.com/index.php/Migrat ... 3_to_6.3.1

Good news.
