EV Index issue

This issue has been solved. See solution.

Hi,

 

I am implementing a new EV 9.0.1 server (mailbox archiving from Exch2010SP1).

All went fine , no erros, no problems, ...

 

Though, some strange thing came up while testing the index search functionality.

The system is setup with "full" indexing.

As a test I search for telephone.

this search gives several emails and attachment in the result list, so far so good ....

When I search for tele  (i.e, part of the word telephone) , the result is 0 

When I search for "Kind regards", the search gives several entries in the result list, so the "full" indexing settings are working 

When I search for "Kind regard" (so, without the 's')  the result is 0 

 

This is not correct, not?

A part of a word string should be searchable in the index, not?

I already rebuild the indexes,... without results

 

Thanks for any info on this!

"Kind regards", wink

Rudy

You need to use wildcards. So

You need to use wildcards. So for example:

search for tele*

and  "Kind regard*"

Then you should get some results.

 To search using wildcards, use an asterisk (*) to find zero or more characters, and a question mark (?) to find any single character. You must enter at least three other characters before using a wildcard.

For example, 'min*' finds the words 'minutes', 'minimum', and so on.

We noticed the same behevoiur

We noticed the same behevoiur in version 8SP5. It looks like the search is not looking for the combination of letters but for a whole word (words combination) only when wildcards are not used
