I am pleased to confirm mnogosearch-3.2.43 can be made to work with Oracle 10.2.0.



The configuration-generator script, install.pl, did not detect the database (on another host), even with the Ora client, tnsnames.ora, and environmental variables set, so I configured manually.



$ ./configure --with-oracle8i=/data/oracle/10.2.0   

$ make

# make install

# cd /usr/local/mnogosearch/etc/

# cp stopwords.conf-dist  stopwords.conf

# cp langmap.conf-dist    langmap.conf

# cp indexer.conf-dist    indexer.conf



Then I edited  indexer.conf to include



DBAddr oracle://username:password@/tnsname/?dbmode=single



and was then able to create all the tables with 

$ /usr/local/mnogosearch/sbin/indexer –Ecreate



as well as run the crawler and populate the DB with 

$ /usr/local/mnogosearch/sbin/indexer





Getting the search.cgi to work was not as easy.



http://www.mnogosearch.org/doc/msearch-oracle.html is helpfully, including

SetEnv ORACLE_HOME /oracle8/app/oracle/product/8.0.5

PassEnv ORACLE_HOME
