ARGH !! ... I just realised - I have a dev and a live machine, both sharing the same user dir (i.e. install dir) and both sharing the web tree (inc. cgi-bin) ... This may not affect the db build, because I initiated it by hand on the dev machine, but now I see the monitor process and texis are running on the live box, and they seem to open semaphores too. Could these be affecing the db build ??
Also, will this mean that any attempt to run a scheduled walk would kick off on both boxes at the same time ??
Can I safely kill the processes on the live box - since I only want to be able to offer search on that box, but build via the dev box ??
You may NOT use the same database from multiple machines. See msg 10 above. The install directory and profile dataspaces must be different between machines if they are sharing the same nfs disk.
Walk on the dev box then copy or move the database to a different location for the live box to use for searching.
Ahaaa ... many thanks gurus ... now I have to rethink my process to get it sorted out ... BTW - I ran Verity EMEA Tech Support for 18 months, and I can assure you that you're worth your weight in gold ... great response, good product, and right on the mark with your answers. Well done and thank you.
