FP Search box results in 404 nortbots.htm

R

robertlake

Using:
Web Host - Windows 2003 Server, IIS 6.0, FPSE 2002, Indexing Service
Client - XP SP2, FP2003

- Created catalog in Indexing Service; tested successfully by querying with
Indexing Service Query Form
- Inserted a Search Box form from Web Components into an html page using FP,
then published vit FP HTTP
- Using IE, successfully tested browsing to the page and getting the search
box, HOWEVER, when entering the same search word I used with the Indexing
Service Query Form, it results in a 404 error and the nortbots.htm page.

This is the code that represents the Search Box:
<!--webbot bot="Search" S-Index="All" S-Fields="TimeStamp,DocumentK,Weight"
S-Text="Search for:" I-Size="20" S-Submit="Start Search" S-Clear="Reset"
S-TimestampFormat="%d %B %Y %I:%M %p" TAG="BODY" b-useindexserver="0"
--></body></html>

I suspect my problem has to do with >>useindexserver="0"<<, but I welcome
any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Since my first post, I have:

- reinstalled FPSE 2002 - no progress
- installed and configured IIS, Index Svc, and FPSE 2000 on my XP
workstation, created a page with a search box, published the page, and tested
it successfully - this confirmed my suspicion that the >>useindexserver="0"<<
is the problem since the test page code says >>useindexserver="1"<<.

So, what might be causing the >>useindexserver="0"<< (see my previous post
for the full line of code)?

Suggestions? Thoughts?

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/205618/en-us
Contact your host to create an index catalog in your online site and then change your search form to use index server (some hosts do
not allow use of index catalogs)

I am the administrator on the host box and have Admin permissions to IIS and
the Index Service. (Before beginnging this thread) I have configured the
Catalog, have included the directory I want to be able to search, and have
associated it with the web site in question. In IIS, I have checked Index
this Resource. When comparing my working test configurations on my
workstation with the website, everything appears to be the same (aside from
XP/FPSE2000 vs Win2003/FPSE2002).

I've seen suggestions in other threads to refer to the Index Server
newsgroup. I haven't been able to find a dedicated Index Server newsgroup.
Maybe the Windows Server newsgroup instead? Or is there an Index Server
newsgroup/forum that I'm missing?
