"File Search" problem

HI

I have been using H to search for things.

All of a sudden I am always getting the following message when I do a search

‘File Search’ has encountered a problem.

Problems accounted during text search.

I have no idea how to fix this. ANy help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards

Hi Jonathon,

Check your servoy\application_server\server_log.txt file. It should contain more info on the errors that you have encountered. Is your database still ok?

:)

Not sure if Jonathon will find the info in there.
CTRL-H is for searching in the workspace, not in any Servoy database.

Jonathon, can you give us some more information on the error. A screenshot perhaps.
Of course Eclipse does log all errors as well but they are stored inside a hidden directory/file inside the workspace.
You can access this log also via an Eclipse ‘View’. This is a tab/window inside Eclipse. If not already visible you can put this View in your Servoy perspective by going to the menubar > Window > Show View > Other… This will show a dialog where you select “Error log” (under the ‘General’ folder).
Once the view is visible it’s sort of hovering inside your perspective, just drag it by the tab to a specific area inside your perspective to anchor it.
Once you have done this you can scroll through all the warnings and errors and access the previous error you had (double-click it). Just copy the info and paste it here.

Hi

I have attached a gif file of three screens.

It does not matter what I search for I get same error - but I can see there is a problem with a media file that I will try to sort out.

You can see from one of the screens I cannot see the Error view… :( SO I cannot se the error log.

Kind Regards
Jonathon

I still cannot see the error log - so I would appreciate help on that.

However, I cured this search problem. As I have been editing sample provided media - I think I removed it from the media folder. This caused the search error. I re-imported the gif in error and all has worked again. The search does not throw up the error any more. Thanks for your help.

Kind Regards

Hi Jonathon,

When you attach a file you can place an inline link in your message with the button that appears after uploading. Otherwise we can’t see the images. I was under the impression that you were searching at runtime in which case you would be able to find something about the error in the errorlog. To find the errorlog first locate your Servoy installation folder which is probably (c:\Program Files\Servoy) and otherwise check by right clicking your servoy icon. The servoy folder has an application_server subfolder which contains the server_log.txt file.

Cheers,
