I am trying to figure out a way to send you the logs or the source code.


http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/
is the preferred way to log bugs
alt. you can try mailing someone from dev folks(Knut, Trond, or anyone who lately pushed some code - https://www.ohloh.net/p/opengrok/commits) or opengrok-...@opensolaris.org

In the meanwhile could you please explain to me what does a symbol (as in symbol search) stand for in opengrok?

I have already checked the help but need more clarification.


symbol - I borrow the definition from source(which is not that generic, but generic enough ;) ):
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/opengrok/trunk/src/org/opensolaris/opengrok/analysis/JFlexXref.java#323
now an explanation:
it's basically a reference - so it can point to a previous declaration, or basically any other occurrence of the same token marked as symbol (which can create a bit of ambiguity, but until we improve it people just have to recognize where the search comes from) - in ideal case it would behave like navigating in some IDE, but our analyzers could be improved in this regard (one of the features people want is a caller/callee functionality - which is basically narrowing down current ref(symbol) searches for one of the use cases) obviously this can be improved and if you want, feel free to checkout the code and help with this effort, I think a lot of people will be happy if it will be done in a convenient and simple way

Thanks a lot for helping me out.

you can use luke (http://code.google.com/p/luke/)
to inspect the index and check definition table if it has the definition

if not, then obviously you have some prob with indexer to fill it in, but as you might have guessed it's hard to figure it out without logs or knowledge about your environment (I have a feeling it's not setup well)

you can try revisiting the head of OpenGrok script and check if you have all env vars set up
ev. drop the config script you use and just run OpenGrok and set all vars
(e.g. as in http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+opengrok/installdescription
try (first change the paths please)
$ OPENGROK_VERBOSE=true OPENGROK_INSTANCE_BASE=/path/to/opengrok EXUBERANT_CTAGS=/path/to/ctags.bin OPENGROK_TOMCAT_BASE=/path/to/my/tomcat/install ./OpenGrok deploy $ OPENGROK_VERBOSE=true OPENGROK_INSTANCE_BASE=/path/to/opengrok EXUBERANT_CTAGS=/path/to/ctags.bin OPENGROK_TOMCAT_BASE=/path/to/my/tomcat/install ./OpenGrok index /path/to/sources

note that default OPENGROK_INSTANCE_BASE is /var/opengrok , tomcat base differs based on systems, similar for ctags, for most systems it should detect the paths (but not for all OSes :( ... send a patch for yours)
)

xing the fingers ... it seems it's a pity Oracle doesn't sell support for OpenGrok

Thanks for your response.

But this is not how it is working for me.

I have a .java file with a class xyz defined in it.

When I click on xyz , it gets me back to the search page with no results for definition search

At the bottom I see :

Did you mean (for project) : xyz yz...

Why doesn't it jump back to the same .java file.
