Re: [ic] Odd search behavior


suppressed wrote:
I'm migrating an existing (modified foundation, 5.4.2, mysql) catalog to
a new server. I've copied all of the templates, pages, database tables
etc.

Old server: http://domain.com/cgi-bin/store/index.html

I changed the variables.txt such that the new server runs on:
http://test.domain.com/cgi-bin/store/index.html

The new catalog runs fine except for one strange thing. On the old
server, the following URL will display matches as expected:

http://domain.com/cgi-bin/store/scan/se=ST123/sf=sku

but on the new server,

http://test.domain.com/cgi-bin/store/scan/se=ST123/sf=sku

brings up no matches. Searching for ST123 on the "Small search box"
however does work. The data in the tables appears to be identical
between the two servers. The catalog and main error logs show nothing.

Can anyone help me figure out why this might be happening?

DB


I'm missing some additional informations.

What happens, if you are "scanning" for "st123" like

http://domain.com/cgi-bin/store/scan/se=st123/sf=sku

?

What is your setting of locale in your shell? In your config files
(catalog.cfg and variable.txt)?

What is your default setting of locale in your OS? Which OS? What is the command "file products.txt" reporting? Any difference between your old and new server by the "file" or "printenv" command?

Maybe, there is a wrong configuration to use the right locale anywhere?

For the russian language, i've founded some behavior or depencies any years ago. For example:

Searching for an author like "Putin" or "putin" works for both.
Scanning for an author like "Putin" or "putin" works for "putin" only. Scanning with or without "case sensitive" don't solve this behavior.

ScratchDefault was set to ru_RU in catalog.cfg!

A new setting like "ScratchDefault to mv_locale ru_RU.CP1251" was the solution, because the products.txt files was created with CP1251 for russian language.

Sorry for my bad english!

Kindly regards,

Joachim (aka jojo)
