I'm sure there are folks on this mailing list who use ContentDM. You could always post advances, trials, and tribulations here. Kevin On Fri, May 27, 2011 at 11:31 PM, Rod McFarland wrote: > Subject tells it all really, I've found some really old wikis and a bunch of > unhelpful Powerpoints vi

[CODE4LIB] Is there a (current) CONTENTdm support group?

2011-05-27 Thread Rod McFarland
Subject tells it all really, I've found some really old wikis and a bunch of unhelpful Powerpoints via Google. The forum on the official page seems to be pretty much dormant. Is there an untainted forum for CONTENTdm users/hackers/victims out there? I've pretty much given up on the OCLC support

I went in and added VAIF links to a bunch of planetary scientists. We are working with NASA to improve the planetary science entries. Mostly, just raising awareness among the scientists that it is important. No negative comments on the VIAF links yet. A bot is something that will get more attentio

Re: [CODE4LIB] What does my solr index have against carbon dioxide?

There's some weridness with synonym expansion at query time when some of them are phrases. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/AnalyzersTokenizersTokenFilters#solr.SynonymFilterFactory Looks like the suggested practice is to do synonym expansion at index time (e.g., the synonym filter with expand="true")

I don't use Solr but the obvious difference between the two synonyms is that methane is one word and carbon dioxide is two. Is there some phrase qualifier one needs to use with the Solr synonyms file? Bob Palian -Original Message- From: Code for Libraries [mailto:CODE4LIB@LISTSERV.ND.ED

You'll probably get a better response from solr-users. In any case, posting the relevant fieldtype definition from your schema.xml and, for good measure, the results of a query with debugQuery on would be helpful. Off the top of my head, I'd say it may be a combination of not using index time e

2011-05-27 Thread Thomas Dowling
Greetings-- I'm trying to flesh out my synonyms.txt file for a couple of Solr indexes, and I stumbled across something weird. I added these lines to synonyms.txt: co2, carbon dioxide ch4, methane The second line worked as expected: I restarted Solr, reindexed, and could search ch4 and methane
