runninghorse Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I've installed the Entropy search program via cPanel and it seems to work alright except for a couple of problems. #1. It doesn't seem to process search queries under a certain # of characters (i.e. if you search for "gag" nothing turns up (when in fact there's a plethera of this word on the pages), but if you search for "breastcollar" some things show up. -- So it seems that I need to be able to edit a config file for this program, except I can't find it, (see last question). #2. The template isn't parsing my shtml as html (is my .htaccess in the wrong place?) ... Basically, I have several menus I use on my design that are called via SSI, and on the rest of the site they work fine, but on the search results page, they don't show up. -- Again, it seems that if I can find the program, maybe I can add my own menus, but, alas, see last question... #3. The biggest problem of them all -- I CANT FIND IT! It is not in my cgi-bin folder, and I can't access the cgi-sys folder and I don't know why. What gives and how can I edit this program at all? Thanks so much! Edited to add a link for viewing -- http://www.brownspeedaction.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I never did get that search working the way I wanted so I went with FastFind. http://www.interspire.com/fastfind/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runninghorse Posted January 24, 2005 Author Share Posted January 24, 2005 Thanks Bruce, If I can't figure this one out, I will look into that. It still boggles my mind, though, the whole cgi-sys thing. Any idea on that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Don Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 You are talking about cgi scripts that are shared on the server, that is why you cannot see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runninghorse Posted January 24, 2005 Author Share Posted January 24, 2005 Aha, okay now we're talking. So is there anyway to install this entropy search on an un-shared basis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Don Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I don't know about that search, but there should be many on hotscripts that may be easier and better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 You can install fastfind on your own server. It's free for a limited time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
