Re: [DQSD-Users] MS KnowledgeBase Search

2007-11-25 Thread Kim Gräsman
Glenn, Charlie,

The latest tagged and released version is revision 1804, and msk was
fixed to comply with site changes in rev. 1813, so maybe the fixes
aren't out yet?

Charlie, I think you can use the httpinst search to upgrade your msk
search from SVN directly, though I don't have DQSD handy so I can't
check the details.

 Is this the msk.xml search?  I tested it quickly with both Q192852 and
 192852, and it appears to work for me.  What searches are failing for you?

Thanks, Kim. I'll try to grab the update. This is, of course ;-), on the 
64bit version, since that's all I run. But that doesn't affect the search.

Re: [DQSD-Users] Search DQSD?

2007-11-25 Thread Charlie Russel
Now I'm truly embarassed. :)

I've used ? to bring up the entire help file, of course. But never used it
as an alias to search for something within that help. But, _of course_,
that's what it does. Duh.

So, Kim, et al. What's it going to take to actually get a released version
that is both 32-bit and 64-bit? It seems like this RC has been out there a
while...

Re: [DQSD-Users] MS KnowledgeBase Search

2007-11-25 Thread Charlie Russel
My apologies. I forgot. This particular version of not quite right 64-bit 
DQSD uses the
\Program Files directory for its binaries, but actually reads the searches
in \Program Files (x86). Now THAT's a bug I'd like to see fixed in a
released 64bit version!

Mea Culpa - I was replacing the wrong one!

 No joy, Glen. This after a restart. It's still prepending a Q, which is no
 longer supported. It should be removing the q when it's present. MS has
 dropped the Q from all new KB articles and is only keeping them in the 
 body
 of the old ones to provide compatibility for older searches. But they've
 made it clear that's not anything they'll do for newer ones.
