[aseek-devel] Re: Infinite loop in searchd

[Kir Kolyshkin]

You should look at ebuf[0], ebuf[1] and pbuf

Probably your index is broken someway.
BTW on what arch do you run ASPseek?

Hi,

   after finally having got index to run I now have a problem with
searchd which I am not able to solve myself. When I do a search
on more than a single word, searchd gets into an infinite loop.
By attaching with a debugger I found that this happens in the function
ULONG AndResults( int size, ULONG* sizes, BYTE** buffers, BYTE** ebuffers,
                                                          ULONG** urls, BYTE*& p_buf, 
WORD* dist )
in search.cpp. The conditions to get out of the loop in this function
is never satisfied. Unfortunately, there is too much strange stuff
going one there, i.e.
    do
    {
        ....

            for ( i = 0, purl = urls; i < size; purl++, i++ )
            {
                // Advance pointer until value of UR ID will be greater
                // or equal to maximal
    
                while ( **purl < maxurl )
                {
                    ( WORD * & ) *purl += ( ( WORD * ) ( *purl ) )[ 3 ] + 4;
                    if ( ( BYTE * ) *purl >= ebuf[ i ] )
                        goto end;        // Buffer end detected
                }
            }
        }

     } while ( true  );

end:

so that I have no idea what I have to change to get it to work. Can
you help me here?
                                           Regards, Jens
