Finally I get to post my ı's and İ's as promised... I've found that MS Indexing Service returns incomplete results when searching for documents with Turkish content. It seems to choke especially regarding the (incorrectly-named) 4I problem. Apparently, MS has fixed this problem with a Windows 2000 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/32533...
Scenario: You have configured Indexing Service to index your files, which also include scanned images saved as hi-res TIFF files. You also have installed MS Office 2003+ and configured MS Office Document Imaging (MODI) correctly so you can perform OCR on your images and even embed the OCR'd text into TIFFs. Awesomeness: Indexing Service...
The Windows Indexing Service pauses itself when it detects the "user is active." Is there a registry entry or something to make it continue indexing regardless of user activity? Clarification: in Windows XP ...
I have a web site that uses Microsoft Indexing Service to index and query a directory that holds various documents of type pdf, rtf, mht, and doc. The indexing and querying works well (for the most part); however, some files will load while others will not. This is a Windows Server 2003 box running the site using IIS 6. The indexed ...
I am having a slight debate with a colleague of mine on this subject. Scenario: A web site has a sub directory that is indexed using the Windows Indexing Service. There is not a web.config in this directory and the indexing service is not indexing the parent directory which is the site root. Something is causing the app pool to restar...

I'm implementing an IFilter for indexing image formats. One problem is photos - many users have tons of photos, photos are huge and loading and searching for text on them is time consuming. Yes, sometimes people use cameras instead of scanners for digitizing documents, but the potential problems IMO far outweight the possibility of enco...

I'm following this example: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2005/12/getting-started-with-indexing-service.html However, the conversion to dataset shows empty columns for my custom properties. If I use path or filename for the columns I get data back. I have set the properties to be cached, have tried both levels, and have rescanned f...
Hi, from classic asp on Windows 2008, using an IXSSO.Query, when searching for a string of numbers, for example 10000000001, I receive results that also include variations to this, like 10000000002 10000000003 and so on. If I change the first digit so the search string is 20000000001 I dont get anything. If I keep moving the last digi...
I have an existing infrastructure that makes heavy use of Microsoft Indexing Service (you know, the obsolete one) and I have the need to perform a nested query, something a bit like this: SELECT FileName FROM ( SELECT All FROM MMGT..Scope() WHERE CONTAINS('"some text"') ) WHERE DatePublished IS NOT NULL Is this possible? ...

I'm trying to search the Indexing Service of a remote Windows 2003 server from ASP.NET. There's sample code for this on the MS site, but only for local searches. Here's what I've got so far; the remote server in this example is called "indexserver", isn't on a domain, and has a index called "system": OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbCon...
Let me know if it uses built-in service or has own service for search in documents? ...
I am currently in the process of upgrading our developer environment to Windows 7 64 bit. I have a C# project reference to CIODMLib which is a COM reference to "C:\windows\system32\ciodm.dll" on Windows XP. For some reason, that COM component does not exist on Windows 7 even though the dll is there. I've already verified that Indexing S...
Recently I stumbled upon a problem that involves moving asp classic sites from a w2k3 server to a w2k8 64 environment. It involved getting indexing services to work with asp classic. I searched every where tried many solutions and they all failed. The problem: running a 64bit indexing service on a 32bit application pool (for asp classi...
For searching our internal Intranet, we use Windows Indexing Service (Server 2003) with a query similar to this: SELECT FILENAME, RANK FROM SCOPE() WHERE CONTAINS ('"Management" AND "Meeting"') ORDER BY RANK DESC What we'd like to do though is weight newer documents higher (their rank) than older documents. How would one go about doin...
I'm trying to query the Microsoft Indexing Service catalog, and I've found a bunch of really helpful articles about it (like this one), but every example I find they just use string concatenation to build queries, and it feels so wrong on so many different levels. I clearly want to use parameterized queries, but it looks like the MS Ind...
