Hi,

i am lacking of knowledge regarding the following problem:

We got a DB with 2,5 Million entries (contents are abstracts + their metadata)

We want to run a search on them, so we thought to create an Index which we did with external programs (LuSQL) and loaded this index into lucene in drupal.

However we cannot get managed that drupals luceneapi can access and read from our own index.

Is there any documentation available how to do so?
Thanks in advance,

Patrick

Hi Patrick.

Thanks for your support request. There is a setting in Search Lucene API that allows you to point to the index, so in your case, you would point to the index created by LuSQL. However, you will not be able to use this module due to the 2.5 million entries. Search Lucene API is a fully integrated solution meaning that the web request has to supply enough resources to load and search the index. Your index is simply too big to work with an integrated solution, but I would try to see if you can do this with the Apache Solr Search Integration project. The 3.0 API of this module will have support for Java based solutions that can handle indexes of this size, but 3.0 development hasn't yet begun. Respectfully marking this as won't fix because of the index size, but I appreciate the post.

Thanks,
Chris
