Net Search Extender

I now really need Net Search Extender. I got it with Developers'
Edition 8.1, and I can't find an update.

Over two years, following the docs scrupulously, I have been unable to
make it work.

Does anyone know how to make it work? With text columns, and .rtf?

I'm not sure if I understand your question. So, if you updated DB2 PE
from 8.1 to 8.2 (let's say) you also have to update NSE. On NSE
support page you can find a reference to a document describing "How do
I upgrade DB2 Net Search Extender V8.1 from DB2 UDB V8.1 to DB2 UDB
V8.2?"

Link to NSE support page:
http://www.ibm.com/software/data/db2...h/support.html

The document states, that the update is available for registered users.
You can also download DB2 PE from IBM web site, however DB2 NSE is
included only for Linux... I didn't find Windows binaries.

Also, you can go directly to:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/ps/produc...s/fixes/v8win/

but anyway, you need to reinstall NSE to 8.2

(I am using Workgroup Server Edition on win32.)

I downloaded what looks like the latest from the site you recommended:
8.1 Fixpak 4.

Still doesn't help, as 8.1 didn't help years ago.

There is something that I am missing. Something involving installation
and setup. Obviously I don't know what it is. I have posted this
message about two years ago and got nothing. Either no one uses it, or
no one knows how to tell anyone else how to use it. It seems to be an
important add-on to db2, but I am very frustrated with inability to
make it work!

I now have 8.2.

No difference.

if you have NSE 8.2 you need fixpak greater than 7 as version 8.2 =
8.1.7.

I had no problem with installing NSE and creating text indexes. Could
you describe what you are doing and when you are getting the problems?
What kind of errors?

1. Installing -- ok?
2. enabling database for text -- ok?
3. creating text indexes -- ok?
4. querying -- ok?

I don't any more know exactly which fixpak I got. But the program is
labelled 8.2.2, and dated April 15, 05. Does that match what you have?

If so, I'll try to reinstall the whole thing and run it again.

Thanks for your efforts, Artur.

I have a table in V8.1.2 (Windows) which contains about 17,000 constant rows. One column contains a string of about 20 English words. I need to find all rows which contain three words specified by their first letters. For example, if I am looking for rows containing Jon (or Jonathan) and Will (or William) and Terry (or Terri or Terrance), the SQL would be: SELECT col1 FROM MYTAB WHERE col2 LIKE '%Jon%' AND col2 LIKE '%Will%' AND...

Bear with me. I am being very calm; took a Valium. I have waited two weeks to write this, because every time I wrote it before the message was, at best, nasty. I need to use the services of NET SEARCH EXTENDER. This is the first time in over five years of IBM (DB2) developing that I need this. I don't know how to do it. (Db2 v8.1.2, Windows) I see that I must deal with indexes, with cache, with other stuff.

Hi, I'm looking for the Net Search Extender version for linux. We have a company license for db2 and I got a white box with about 100 CDs in it. I think it's the 'development edition' (IBM DB2 Universal DEV. ED. 8.1 Media Pack Deutsch). I successfully installed 8.1 with FP 10. In the box I found the Net Search Extender disc for Windows and Unix operation systems, but nothing for linux.

I am using ASP.net 2.0 and I want to search a list of about 2,000 items in a list. I used a listsearch extender to search item fastly. However, it is still a bit not smooth enough to search. So I want to use a textbox for the users to type and check the listbox value by Javascript. However, it is very slow also. Can anybody help on searching and auto complete the search item more quickly??

Hi I am using a list search extender and have the control it is assigned to as a control in a template column in a gridview. Anyhow for some reason the type to search section that normally appears right above the control is not appearing right above the control. Although always lined up vertically it randomly appears in different locations outside the gridview on the web page. Any suggestions, thanks -- Paul G Software engineer.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
