[Xapian-discuss] Searching multiple databases with omega

[Frank J Bruzzaniti]

I did the cat but got noting.

I altered the patch and now receive the following error:

Failed to open flint version file for reading: 
/opt/omega/data/scanned_documents/iamflint

What puzzles me is that default and scanned documents are both created 
by omindex, live in the same dir but only one is readable.

Both iamflint files in default and scanned documents are identical:

db39353dd1d8dec502f4075513d3df7d /opt/omega/data/default/iamflint
db39353dd1d8dec502f4075513d3df7d /opt/omega/data/scanned_documents/iamflint
