Possible search bug in 3.12beta13 (and earlier)
****** message to minivend-users from Matthew.Rice@ftlsol.com ******
Synopsis:
When doing a search through a database other than 'products',
minivend seems to be trying to relate the [item-code] to a
match in the products database.
This causes things like [item-field blah] to be incorrect
or empty.
Side Note:
The partcat.asc database is configures the same way as
products.asc but no .gdbm files or column files are
ever created.
It may just be that I don't know what I'm doing but...
I'm trying to do a search through a categories file and the I have
a file called partcat.asc (with a sample):
code category subcategory
Bearing:Mounted Bearing Mounted
Bearing:Un-Mounted Bearing Un-Mounted
Now when I do the search (assuming it matches stuff in producsts.asc):
http://mysite/cgi-bin/catalog/scan/fi=products/sf=category/sp=catwalk/se=Bearing?fVLC75zZ;;746
Everything is fine. However when I do the exact same thing with partcat.asc:
http://mysite/cgi-bin/catalog/scan/fi=partcat/sf=category/sp=catwalk/se=CategoryB?fVLC75zZ;;746
Only [item-code] is valid. If I put the same code entry in product.asc,
then the other fields get filled in (with the products.asc values).
Here's my catwalk.html page:
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Results</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
[search-list]
[item-code] and [item-field category]<BR>
[/search-list]
</body></html>
Here's how my two databases are configure:
Database products products.asc TAB
Database products INDEX category
Database partcat partcat.asc TAB
Database partcat INDEX category
Am I out to lunch or is this a bug?
