I had the same issue, and for me it was the permissions problem. When I tried to create the collection the first time it gave me the same error you had, however it did create the directory I had setup for the Path.
I compared that directory to the other collection directories and all the other collections had permissions of drwxr-xr-x (chmod 755), however this new collection had drwxr--r-- (chmod 744). I ran the command "chmod 755" on that directory, then went back to the CF Administrator and successfully created the collection. I'm not sure why it doesn't work correctly, since I use to be able to create collections without this problem. I've done several software upgrades to the server since the last collection creation, so my guess is that one of those upgrades jacked this up. I guess I'll live with it, until I (or someone) else comes across the real solution to this issue. > [CFMX 7 Multi-Server on Ubuntu Linux] > > I'm trying to create a collection from the CF Admin, but I'm getting: > > Unable to create collection testMe. > Unable to create collection testme. > An error occurred while creating the collection: com.verity.api. > administration.ConfigurationException: Fail to create the index. > (-6220) > > I'm not sure where to go from here... > > Thanks, > Jamie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Download the latest ColdFusion 8 utilities including Report Builder, plug-ins for Eclipse and Dreamweaver updates. http;//www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=labs%5adobecf8%5Fbeta Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:292451 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
