I am evaluating nutch+lucene as a crawl and search solution. However, I am finding major bugs in nutch right off the bat.
In particular, NUTCH-119: nutch is not crawling relative URLs. I have some discussion of it here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg08644.html Most of the links off www.variety.com, one of my main test sites, have relative URLs. It seems incredible that nutch, which is capable of mapreduce, cannot fetch these URLs. It could be that I would fix this bug if, for other reasons, I decide to go with nutch+lucene. Has anyone tried fixing this problem? Is it intractable? Or are the developers, who are just volunteers anyway, more interested in fixing other problems? Could someone outline the issue for me a bit more clearly so I would know how to evaluate it? ____________________________________________________________________________________ Park yourself in front of a world of choices in alternative vehicles.
