(Solved) Re: [Xapian-discuss] How to configure omega.cgi to search multiple flint dbs?

[oscaruser at programmer.net]

Folks,

OK found it, omega.cc looks for multiple DB definitions and adds it to the search list. If the dbs are only one directory lower (e.g. not in default as in beta/default, but only "beta"), then modifying database_dir setting as follows will work:

database_dir /svr/hda1/xapian

then,

./omega.cgi 'P=pda' FMT='xml' DB="beta" DB="gamma" DB="delta" HITSPERPAGE=1

...provides a roll up of the queries, and summaries results. (Super!)

Thanks,
OSC
