Natural language searching in RH Server 6

RoboColum(n) Oct 2, 2008 6:57 AM

We are testing out publishing RHX5 output to a server under RH Server 6 control. It all works OK except in the area of searching. The search tab says something like "Type your question and press GO". However natural language searches do not appear to return the required results.

Am a right in thinking that natural language searching came in with RH Server 6? If so, I guess the fact that I am using RHX5 output may be causing a problem or two. I have managed to get around this so far by manually editing the output files to say something like "Type in the word(s) to search for" but it would be nice not to have to do this.

Hi Colum

I may be mistaken and stand to be corrected on this, but I think that version 6 of the server product actually removed the Natural Language Search capability.

Hopefully John Daigle or someone else can pop in to confirm or deny this.

Cheers... Rick

Well that would explain why natural language searches come back with no results! I seem to remember it being added and then taken out but like you I can't seem to find anything that confirms this and in which versions.

Natural Language was replaced in version 6. See http://www.adobe.com/devnet/robohelp/articles/rhserver_06.html
The next question is, Why does it still read "Type your question and press GO". If you type a question you get no results because it is no longer a natural language search.

Yes I did wonder that myself. Does anyone know if that still exists in RH Server 7?
