[Perlfect-search] Error within page or script on search.pl

[bob@royalairforce.net]

Progress report.

The following comment on another thread [Problems with PerlFect 
Search 3.30 - Linda Antonsson] allowed me to see the error.

This revealed that the subdirectory 'perlfect' required to be named 
'Perlfect', also the file within was 'template.pm' and the script 
required it to be named 'Template.pm'.

I never use uppercase letters, the ftp program is set to automatically 
correct filenames to lower case. This is because Windows and/or 
graphics progs or front page sometime save with uppercase letters 
(one prog always makes the extender uppercase) and sometimes I 
do not notice.

However search now works (it shows a nil return).

------------------------------------------

Further tests:

Indexer is playing up - it completes it's index run and shows on the 
browser dialogue that is has created temp files - then renamed the 
temp files.
At no time does it show an error.

However the data directory only contains content_tmp, dates_tmp, 
desc_tmp, df, docs_tmp, inv_index_tmp, sizes_tmp, terms_tmp, tf, 
titles_tmp, urls_tmp.

Also the contents are not the same as when I first ran the indexer.
I deleted the files and the directory and started again with a new 
directory - still the same. Naturally the search.pl returns the error  
'Cannot open data/inv_index: No such file or directory'.

One step forward and two backwards.
