Search not working in RH 8

[accorto]

HI

  I have successfully created and publishsed a project, yet when  go to the search tab (in the compiled help) no matter what I enter I get no results.  Did I miss some step in gettng the search to work?

Sorry if this is simple question but I looked int he doc and could not find anything.  I really wish there was a good manual on RH8

Thanks

Kathy

Try generating to a different folder or creating a new layout.

Thanks Peter,

  using a different file worked.  Seems a bit odd though???

One more question, I want to disable the display of the first line of the topic in the search results.  All I can find in the help doc is that you use the SSL Dialog box but not how you access this dialog box

Can you help?

Thanks again

Kathy

The help is referring to the wizard which you must have accessed to change the folder to which you generate.

In the second page, you need to clear this field.

Meant to say, sometimes something in the folder goes corrupt. You can spend a lot of time trying to track it, and probably failing, or you can just by-pass the problem.
