Indexing PDF documents

brianotnMar 3 2003 — edited Apr 4 2004

I'm trying to index PDF documents amongst others (ASCII, MS-Word) using the inso_filter as follows:

CREATE INDEX mixed_docs_index
ON mixed_docs(text)
INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
PARAMETERS ('filter ctxsys.INSO_filter');

All other document types are indexed successfully but not those in PDF format.

ctx_user_index_errors

reveals

DRG-11207: user filter command exited with status 1

I know that this is a filter error but beyond that I'm stumped. I've tried sevaeral different PDF documents (including an Adobe readme file!) and I get the same message every time.

We're running Oracle9i 9.2.0.1.0 under Solaris

Any ideas anyone?

Brian
