Backup does not complete

If your website has abnormally large pages, it is possible that a database backup may not complete. There will be an entry in your error log mentioning running out of memory. Because the backup groups several table rows for efficiency, large pages can cause a transaction to be too big to handle. Thi...

On the matter of stemming

There have been a couple (two, actually) reports of Sphider failing when stemming has been enabled. I have not been able to test those instances, not knowing the urls affected. I can test sites randomly, but have been unable to get a failure... until now. More in a moment. First to let you know a bi...

Re: Premature completion

If you could send me your spider log I might get a clue as to what is happening. There is something strange here as I have indexed many sites using relative links with no issue. But even I come up with some invalid links while the source code appears totally valid. Give me a bit and I WILL figure ou...

Re: Premature completion

Indexing using a sitemap.xml is a surefire way of finding pages. Do you have any links that are only in javascript, like a javascript me...

Re: InnoDB Vs MyIsam

Prior to 3.3.0, user choice! Each has it pros and cons. There are a couple items on the Admin Database tab that are geared towards InnoDb, but that shouldn't be a deal breaker.
