Indexing files on remote server
I am trying to create a verity collection that indexes a share on a remote
server. (We have a front end webserver, and a static data server
- I am trying to index files on the static server, via a UNC path)
I believe the systems are set up properly in regards to the user which the
CF services are running as having proper permissions to the share.
I can successfully create files on the remote server using CFFILE from the
webserver using the same UNC path - so I would think that the verity
indexer would be able to read those files.
Here is the exact tag I use:
<cfindex collection="#variables.col lection_na me#"
action="update"
type="path"
key="\\Server\Path\To\My\F iles"
extensions="#application.i nc_index_e xtensions# "
recurse="yes">
When I change the "key" attribute to some local drive\directory
(like "D:\cache\0000\Docs") it works just fine.
Am I forgetting something?
Thanks in advance.

Tried that already. ColdFusion doesn't seem to recognize mapped drive letters to a share. The ColdFusion server and all it's functions work, it is the Verity parts, like cfindex, that have a problem.
Thanks anyways.
Anyone else have a clue?

Would it be possible to map the share as a drive, and index it by referencing the mapped drive letter?
Just a suggestion. :)
