ASP Searches Return Documents from Non-indexed Directories (184901)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Index Server 2.0
This article was previously published under Q184901 SYMPTOMS
When you perform searches using the sample Active Server Pages (ASP) query
page, the search results may contain documents from directories marked as
unindexed. The links returned for these hits will be non-functional.
CAUSE
This is caused by an error in the sample Query.asp code shipped with Index
Server.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, you must modify the Query.asp code so that
the formscope is correctly set.
In the sample Query.asp file, the following code needs to be modified:
if FormScope <> "/" then
util.AddScopeToQuery Q, FormScope, "deep"
end if
The "/" on the first line must be changed to "\". After this has been
done, the queries should work correctly.
This problem only occurs when you are using the ASP index object. If you
are using the ADO ODBC provider for Index Server, or .htm, .idq, or .htx
files, you should not have this problem.
