Shane, That is odd...
Have you double-checked all your log files, to make sure you're not getting any errors underneath after performing a search? So, checking the [dspace]/log/dspace.log and your Tomcat log file (e.g. [tomcat]/logs/catalina.out) If there's nothing strange in the log files after a search, you may also want to rerun your 'index-all', and check the logs after re-indexing (to make sure the indexer isn't running into strange issues). If nothing strange is happening in your logs, the next step you could take is to see what Lucene (underlying DSpace search engine) is actually indexing underneath. A good tool for this is Luke (http://www.getopt.org/luke/). You can point Luke at your [dspace]/search/ directory (where the DSpace Lucene Index is), and it will tell you all the documents you have indexed, and let you perform some basic browsing or searches directly against Lucene. However, I will admit, Luke does not have the *easiest* interface to understand. You'd mostly want to look at the "Documents" tab, to see all the documents Lucene indexed, and see if you can browse-by your custom field. Hopefully this gives you a few more things to look at. Let us know if you figure out what is going on! - Tim Shane Beers wrote: > Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately, as I would feel pretty dumb if > that was the problem) that was just a typo on my own part in the email - > not in dspace.cfg > > I'm still at a loss... > > Shane Beers > Digital Repository Services Librarian > George Mason University > [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > 703-993-3742 > On Oct 12, 2007, at 3:23 AM, Claudia Jürgen wrote: > >> Hi Shane, >> >> if this is a cut'n paste of your changes you simply got a typo there, >> > search.index.13 = edt_disc:thesis.degree.discipline >> >> should be >> search.index.13 = etd_disc:thesis.degree.discipline >> >> sunny greetings >> >> Claudia >> >> >> Shane Beers schrieb: >>> I am having issues with my search results when using the advanced >>> search in our archive.
