I am having problems getting Adobe's IFilter to work with Lucene and Windows Indexing Service. I am running Windows Server 2008 SP2 32bit and have installed Adobe IFilter 6.0. After installing the IFilter I reindex the portal but I still cannot get any pdf search results in DMX. I also used Luke to look at the Lucene catalog and none of the pdf content is indexed. Office documents, however, are indexed. I also tried creating a catalog in Indexing Service and tried to index pdf documents. These documents will not pull up in a search and I am stumped. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Jacob, This is an issue of the iFilter, not DMX. I don't want to sound unhelpful but your best bet is to take this up with Adobe. Peter

Hi Peter, This was a weird issue. As far as I can tell there is no pdf IFilter that works with Windows Server 2008 32 bit. We brought up a 64 bit version of Windows Server 2008 and installed the 64 bit pdf IFilter from Adobe. In this environment the DMX module is able to index pdf content so the problem was resolved. -Jacob

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
