zip files/.desc

[JG867]

Javascript version, 6.0 build 1003

I have a .zip file I would like only the filename to be indexed. The zip file contains .xml files (no titles in them).

I have added the .zip extension to the Scan Extensions list and I have configured it to use a .desc file and only index the filename.

The .desc file is being indexed, but the search result does not display the .desc file information as expected.

For example:

My zip file = samples.zip
My desc file = samples.zip.desc (I used Notepad to create)
The contents in the .desc file look like this:

<title>My samples.zip</title>
<meta name="description" content="Lots of stuff">

When I perform a search on samples.zip the search resut says:

No title
Terms matched: 1 - Score: 31 - URL: samples.zip [note this is correct URL, I cleaned it up for posting].

I have title of page and meta name toggled on in the Search Results layout. I had expected the title and description to display in the search results.


Any suggestions??? Did I miss a setting?

Thanks.......

One note: the .desc files are working correctly for other file extensions....just seems to be a problem with the .zip for me

We have confirmed that this is a bug in the current release. It is failing to index .DESC files for ZIP files in Spider Mode. There is also a similar problem with indexing .DESC files for a "Binary" file such as EXE.

It will be fixed for the new release (V6.0 build 100.

Ok, no problem.

However, I'm using Javascript, offline mode.....does this make a difference?

I created an earlier post related to binary files (.jar/.bat extension) could the .desc problem be causing my files to index three times?
