Hi, Im new on Yacy and Im having some issues.
Im trying to index the files of our windows server, when I use smb:// it gives me error, saying its *No parser available in SMB, i think its not connecting, it requires authentication. I tried:
smb://username:%mypass%@10.200.51.134/myfolders/
smb://username:"%mypass%"@10.200.51.134/myfolders/
smb://:<%mypass%>@10.200.51.134/myfolders/
With “file://” wihtout authentication it reaches all folders and index all files, but when i try to acess the files from browser, local or other machine, it doesnt open, the link is messy, there is no IP.
file://10.200.51.134/myfolders
With Fess ( fess.codelibs.org) I use the smb:// option with authentication in one former, I dont know how they do the connection.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Hi
smb://username:%mypass%@10.200.51.134/myfolders/
Should be the right one. However:
-
I don’t know if %-characters are working there
-
I never tested this with passwords, because
-
passwords would be revealed within search results in clear text and that cannot be something what you want
-
search indexes for smb shares do only make sense if the shared index gets access to a shared account.
In case the shared account has a PW-protection using AD, then the following software may help:
This must be used to mount shares locally for registered users which then can be indexed without a password using a file:/// path.
The authentication layer then sits between the user and the search interface and acts as a filter which makes search results only visible for users which have the correct account rights for that specific path.
That is not a proper URL. A file://
url must have a path after that prefix.
For eample if the path is /home/user/xyz
the url is file:///home/user/xyz
. (yes, three times ‘/’)
Hi, thanks for the quick answer, and sorry for my lack of knoladgment
I tried the file:/// and it didnt work, but with 5 slashes, file://///10.200.51.152/myfolders/ it worked.
but the urls created are not linckable. If I click on it, nothing happens. If I copy the url and paste in other window it works.
It seems it miss slashes in the result when I click with the mouse.
If I get the source code of the search result page and paste in a static html (test.html) and try to open the links, it works.

In addition, selecting “open link in new tab” results in a new tab opening to about:blank#blocked This post seems to indicate it may be due to a brave/chromium browser security issue? https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/2777
Any ideas for a work around on this issue when working with local files? (windows 10/brave)
