Geoff Bentley	Monday 22 March 2010 9:44:23 pm Just wondering if there is any documentation of the correct usage for the eZ Find updatesearchindex script, especially: correct driver specification e.g mysql, ezmysql, ezmysqldb use with an existing siteaccess to override some parameters e.g host, db I'm trying to feed a copy of a live db into Solr from a development environment. Any help most appreciated.

Paul Borgermans	Tuesday 23 March 2010 2:34:25 pm There is no additional documentation apart from the built in help php extension/ezfind/bin/php/updatesearchindexsolr.php -help The DB initialisationis done after the siteaccess, so in principle using the additional parameters should override it (not tested myself though) About the "driver": you should use the same as the ini settings (the aliases), so mysql, ezmysql for example are synonyms and usable as long as the corresponding ini settings are set (look at the default site.ini shipped) hth Paul eZ Publish, eZ Find, Solr expert consulting and training http://twitter.com/paulborgermans
Bertrand Dunogier	Tuesday 23 March 2010 3:00:09 pm @Geoff: what I would do is create a fake admin siteaccess for the remote instance, and run updatesearchindexsolr.php with the --siteaccess parameter. But be aware that if the binary files are not readable from the filesystem, they will not be indexed (if you use this feature). Of course it would be better to consolidate the DB parameters, even though they will most likely work.

Geoff Bentley	Tuesday 23 March 2010 4:42:16 pm Found one reason - code completely wrong in execute(): +++ updatesearchindexsolr.php (working copy) @@ -449,7 +449,7 @@ { if ( !empty( $this->Options[$param] ) ) { - $optionString .= ' --' . $param . '=' . escapeshellarg( $this->Options['db-host'] ); + $paramString .= ' --' . $param . '=' . escapeshellarg( $this->Options[$param] ); } } However, adding in the options causes the process to hang.
Geoff Bentley	Tuesday 23 March 2010 4:47:54 pm The process was just taking its time (it had a lot to digest). Will submit this patch at http://issues.ez.no
