Site Searching

[DPolley]

Does anyone know of a program that I could install on HostMonster that would allow users to search my entire site INCLUDING .PFD FILES? The Entropy Search included with CPanel does not handle .PDFs

Try http://mnogosearch.org/download.html for a script that searches through PDFs and HTML, or http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Searching/Searching_Your_Web_Site/

I found PhpDig at the second link listed above (Thanks). Below is the requirements from their site. From what I can tell, it shouldwork OK on Hostmonster. Can you see any reason why it would not?

BTW: I only intend to use it to index about 30 PDF files of approximately 8 pages each, so I don't think the indexing time should be a big concern.

Thanks,

Dean

3.1. Prerequisites [top]

PhpDig requires a web server (preferably Apache) with PHP (module or CGI) and a MySQL database. PHP is to have safe_mode set to off and allow_url_fopen set to on. Make sure your web server is not set to timeout quickly, as indexing can take some time. PhpDig can work in a shard hosting environment, but note that it can take a fair amount of CPU time so your host may kill the process or become unhappy with you.

PhpDig has reportedly worked with the following OS/setups:



Gentoo Linux, kernel/2.4.20, Apache/2.0.48, mod_php/4.3.3, MySQL/4.0.16
Linux, kernel/2.4.18, Apache/2.0.44, OpenSSL/0.9.6g, PHP/4.3.0
Linux, kernel/2.4.22, Apache/1.3.29, mod_ssl/2.8.16, OpenSSL/0.9.7b, PHP/4.3.4
Linux, kernel/2.4.3, Apache/1.3.23, mod_ssl/2.8.7, PHP/4.1.2
Linux Red Hat/9.0, Apache/2.0.48, PHP/4.3.4, MySQL/4.0.17
Mac OS X/10.3, Apache/1.3.28, PHP/4.3.2, MySQL/4.0.12
OpenBSD/3.4/Sparc64, Apache/1.3.29, mod_ssl/2.8.16-1.3.29, mod_perl/1.28, OpenSSL/0.9.7c, PHP/4.3.4
Windows 2000 Server, Apache/1.3.20, PHP/4.1.1
Windows 2000 Server, Apache/2.0.44, PHP/4.3.1
Windows 2003 Server, IIS/6, PHP/4.3.2, MySQL/4.0.15



Note that if your OS/setup is for example a CGI loadbalanced cluster of servers, it may not possible to index sites on the cluster as there cannot be a connection back to the loadbalanced address. Also note that PhpDig is a web spider and search engine, meaning that you may have to edit you hosts file with something like "127.0.0.1 www.domain.com" in order to get PhpDig to crawl on localhost.

ummmmm..... i think there should be a rule about hijacking threads... and WTF is this guy on ? jeez...

good eye on the mods... "banned".

[DPolley]

Oh Good! I thought it was just me! I have seen this happen on a couple of threads already. Not off to a very good start!

I've used both Sphider and PHPDig. I like Sphider more. For me it is easier to customize and besides, the guy who runs the PHPDig forum is kind of cranky:mad:. Sphider has a really friendly community.:)

heres one, it'free, customizable, auto updating, and requires no downloads: http://www.sitelevel.com/?synd=box&chan=7s if that url doesn't work or you want to see an example without actually going through the crud just look at the first page of my site. The one I have isn't fancy, it blends but that's what I wanted. They have others in many shapes and sizes.
