ellie,
Currently, I'm using the squat search engine which was copied from my old mail
system. Oddly enough, the squat syntax I was using in my cyrusd.conf, which
used to work 2.5 no longer works for 3.4.2 which explains why the server-side
searches aren't working for my new install.
Before I went to sleep last night I decided to try the Xapian search engine to
see if that fixes anything. I managed to rebuild Cyrus with Xapian support so
I'll try it out today.
Oddly enough looking at the source code imapd/index.c I found this bit of code.
I only moonlight as a sysadmin and I'm actually a software developer and this
looks pretty odd to me.
EXPORTED int index_search(struct index_state *state,
struct searchargs *searchargs,
int usinguid)
{
search_query_t *query = NULL;
search_folder_t *folder;
int nmsg = 0;
int i;
modseq_t highestmodseq = 0;
int r;
/* update the index */
if (index_check(state, 0, 0))
return 0;
highestmodseq = needs_modseq(searchargs, NULL);
query = search_query_new(state, searchargs);
r = search_query_run(query);
if (r) goto out; /* search failed */
folder = search_query_find_folder(query, index_mboxname(state));
if (folder) {
if (!usinguid)
search_folder_use_msn(folder, state);
if (highestmodseq)
highestmodseq = search_folder_get_highest_modseq(folder);
nmsg = search_folder_get_count(folder);
}
else
nmsg = 0;
if (searchargs->returnopts) {
begin_esearch_response(state, searchargs, usinguid, folder, nmsg);
if (nmsg) {
if (searchargs->returnopts & SEARCH_RETURN_ALL) {
struct seqset *seq = search_folder_get_seqset(folder);
if (seq->len) {
char *str = seqset_cstring(seq);
prot_printf(state->out, " ALL %s", str);
free(str);
}
seqset_free(seq);
}
if (searchargs->returnopts & SEARCH_RETURN_RELEVANCY) {
prot_printf(state->out, " RELEVANCY (");
for (i = 0; i < nmsg; i++) {
if (i) prot_putc(' ', state->out);
/* for now all messages have relevancy=100 */
prot_printf(state->out, "%u", 100);
}
prot_printf(state->out, ")");
}
esearch_modseq_response(state, searchargs, folder, highestmodseq);
}
}
else {
prot_printf(state->out, "* SEARCH");
Basically, if searchargs->returnopts is non-zero actually do the search
otherwise return "* SEARCH" telling the client that there were no search
results.
If the switch over to Xapian search doesn't fix my issue my next move is to
build this thing in debug mode set breakpoints and just step through this thing
to see what is up with returnopts. At the very least I can look at the call
stack to determine what is setting returnopts and why I'm getting zero here.
Thanks,
Chris
