Thanks. I've done Tika command line to parse the Excel file, and I see contents in it that don't appear to be indexed. I've tried the path of using Tika to parse the Excel and then using extracting request handler to index the resulting text, and that doesn't work either.
As far as Luke goes, I've built it from scratch. Still bombs. Is it possible that it's not compatible with lucene builds based on trunk? thanks, -harry On Wed, Aug 11, 2010 at 6:48 PM, Jan Høydahl / Cominvent <jan....@cominvent.com> wrote: > Hi, > > You can try Tika command line to parse your Excel file, then you will se the > exact textual output from it, which will be indexed into Solr, and thus > inspect whether something is missing. > > Are you sure you use a version of Luke which supports your version of Lucene? > > -- > Jan Høydahl, search solution architect > Cominvent AS - www.cominvent.com > Training in Europe - www.solrtraining.com > > On 11. aug. 2010, at 23.33, Harry Hochheiser wrote: > >> I'm trying to use Solr to index the contents of an Excel file, using >> the ExtractingRequestHandler (CSV handler won't work for me - I need >> to consider the whole spreadsheet as one document), and I'm running >> into some trouble. >> >> Is there any way to see what's going on during the indexing process? >> I'm concerned that I may be losing some terms, and I'd like to see if >> i can snoop on the terms that are added to the index as they go along. >> How might I do this? >> >> Barring that, how can I inspect the index post-fact?
