Install Full Text Search

Install OpenFTS module

If you want full text search, and you are running PostGreSQL, install this module to support FTS. Do this step after you have installed both PostGreSQL and Aolserver. You will need the openfts tarball in /tmp.

  1. Install Tsearch. This is a PostGreSQL module that OpenFTS requires.

    [root@yourserver root]# su - postgres
[postgres@yourserver pgsql]$ cd /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib/tsearch/
[postgres@yourserver tsearch]$ make
sed 's,MODULE_PATHNAME,$libdir/tsearch,g' tsearch.sql.in >tsearch.sql
/usr/bin/flex  -8 -Ptsearch_yy -o'parser.c' parser.l(many lines omitted)
rm -f libtsearch.so
ln -s libtsearch.so.0.0 libtsearch.so
[postgres@yourserver tsearch]$ make install
mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/share/contrib
mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/doc/contrib
(2 lines omitted)
/bin/sh ../../config/install-sh -c -m 755 libtsearch.so.0.0 /usr/local/pgsql/lib/tsearch.so
[postgres@yourserver tsearch]$ exit
logout

[root@yourserver root]#

    su - postgres
cd /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib/tsearch
make
make install
exit

  2. Unpack the OpenFTS tarball and compile and install the driver.

    [root@yourserver root]# cd /usr/local/src
[root@yourserver src]# tar xzf /tmp/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2.tar.gz
[root@yourserver src]# cd /usr/local/src/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2/
[root@yourserver Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2]# ./configure --with-aolserver-src=/usr/local/src/aolserver/aolserver --with-tcl=/usr/lib/
checking prefix... /usr/local
checking for gcc... gcc
(many lines omitted)
configure: creating ./config.status

[root@yourserver Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2]# make

[root@yourserver Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2]# cd aolserver

[root@yourserver aolserver]# cp nsfts.so /usr/local/aolserver/bin/
[root@yourserver aolserver]#

    cd /usr/local/src 
tar xzf /tmp/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2.tar.gz
cd /usr/local/src/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2/
./configure --with-aolserver-src=/usr/local/src/aolserver/aolserver --with-tcl=/usr/lib/
make
cd aolserver
make
cp nsfts.so /usr/local/aolserver/bin

  3. Build some supplemental modules.

    [root@yourserver aolserver]# cd /usr/local/src/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2
[root@yourserver Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2]# cp -r pgsql_contrib_openfts /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib
[root@yourserver Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2]# cd /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib/pgsql_contrib_openfts
[root@yourserver pgsql_contrib_openfts]# make
sed 's,MODULE_PATHNAME,$libdir/openfts,g' openfts.sql.in >openfts.sql
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -fpic -I. -I../../src/include   -c -o openfts.o openfts.c
gcc -shared -o openfts.so openfts.o
rm openfts.o
[root@yourserver pgsql_contrib_openfts]# su postgres
[postgres@yourserver pgsql_contrib_openfts]$ make install
/bin/sh ../../config/install-sh -c -m 644 openfts.sql /usr/local/pgsql/share/contrib
/bin/sh ../../config/install-sh -c -m 755 openfts.so /usr/local/pgsql/lib
/bin/sh ../../config/install-sh -c -m 644 ./README.openfts /usr/local/pgsql/doc/contrib
[postgres@yourserver pgsql_contrib_openfts]$ exit
[root@yourserver pgsql_contrib_openfts]#

    cd /usr/local/src/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2
cp -r pgsql_contrib_openfts /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib
cd /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib/pgsql_contrib_openfts
make
su postgres
make install
exit

Install OpenFTS prerequisites in PostGreSQL instance

If you are installing Full Text Search, add required packages to the new database. (In order for full text search to work, you must also install the PostGreSQL OpenFTS module and prerequisites.)

[service0@yourserver service0]$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql service0 -f /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib/tsearch/tsearch.sql
BEGIN
CREATE

[service0@yourserver service0]$

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql service0 -f /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib/tsearch/tsearch.sql
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql service0 -f /usr/local/src/postgresql-7.2.4/contrib/pgsql_contrib_openfts/openfts.sql

Enable OpenFTS in config.tcl

If you have installed OpenFTS, you can enable it for this service. Uncomment this line from config.tcl. (To uncomment a line in a tcl file, remove the # at the beginning of the line.)

#ns_param   nsfts           ${bindir}/nsfts.so
