@Donahue That says other required pieces are not available. Not that elasticsearch was not available.

JaredBusch

Which does not surprise me since it is from Fedora 24.

And that was hard to find.

Typo in my search text and everything...

Donahue

I find it odd that the elasticsearch app is installed in NC, but the package is not on my machine.

Donahue

I was able to get it installed using that link and also here: https://www.linode.com/docs/databases/elasticsearch/a-guide-to-elasticsearch-plugins/

After that, I can run the index and it picks up new documents. But it will not search them.

Donahue

It seems the search only works on files that are not shared.

Not really, nothing "in" NC shows up as a package on your machine. NC is its own thing, things inside of it would not be expected to be system packages.

Donahue

So to update this, searches do not seem to work in shared folders, but they will work in group folders which is an optional app. I also had to setup the backup job in NC to be a cron job and not an ajax job, and add it to the crontab for the apache user.

crontab -u apache -e

I couldn't get the fulltextsearch:live to work properly, so I added fulltextsearch:index to the cron job too.
