It seems you use option "Search in separate thread"?

No, this option is unchecked. I have the Branch view checked.

What you mean "keep duplicating"??? According to picture it looks like you run search twice.

What I do is the following:

1. Open TC
2. Open FSE
3. Hit Enter on New Search
4. Fill in my query in Search Text
5. Click Start search
6. Now I wait some time
7. Nothing happens, so I press CTRL-R
8. My search shows up as a folder like [box_web]
9. Hit Enter on the folder to open it
10. Nothing happens
11. Press CTRL-R
12. Second search shows up as a folder like [box_web(1)]
13. Hit Enter on the folder to open it
14. Nothing happens
15. Press Delete on the folder [box_web(1)]
16. Popup asking I am sure, click yes
17. Now I have a number of extra folders. They are: [box_web(1)(1)], [box_web(1)(2)], [box_web(1)(3)], [box_web(2)]. The other ones are also still there.
18. Hitting Enter on any of these folders, nothing happens
19. Press CTRL-R
20. A number of folders duplicate

This could go on and on The only way to reset the view is to close and open TC.

What error message is displayed?

There is no error message.

Here is my ini file in case it helps:

Code: Select all

[Locate]
Path=d:\program files\locate
Limit=100
BranchView=1
SepThreads=0

Let me know if there is anything particular I need to try. Thanks for the help

It is some kind of mystery. It is looks like ANY you action actually run a new search! These names (box_web(1)(1), box_web(1)(2), etc) are automatically generated names when user starts the same search again and again.
Do you have on your computer any special keyboard handling software? Layout switcher? Accessibility software? Macro key recorder?

Can you check this behavior on another computer?
Can you check this on fresh TC installation?

It sure is a mystery

Nothing of the sorts.

Can you check this behavior on another computer?
Can you check this on fresh TC installation?

I had a VirtualBox lying around with a fresh and crispy installation of Windows XP. Nothing but Windows installed. First installed TC 7.0.4a, then installed Locate32, then installed FSE.

WIth the basics installed I was ready to search but, behold, the same thing happened. Exactly the same.

Might be worth mentioning I have fse.ini located in the folder where fse.wcx is.

What else should I try?

I'm really stalled.

1. I can send you debug build of FSE, if you can use DebugView utility to catch FSE's trace.

2.What is the size of VM files? It is possible somehow to get such one? Or see it by remote (RDP, VNC)?

[rolandd]

Please send me the debug build as it is impossible for me to send the VM file. My current connection runs between 2-5KB and the files being around 2-3GB, it will take forever.

The e-mail address you can use is contact_@_csvimproveddotcom. Without the underscores and dot being . of course

In the meantime I am downloading the DebugView Utility. Anything in particular you want me to look for?

[VadiMGP]

Ok, since rolandd's problem is solved I would like to recommend to all - don't edit FSE.ini file manually, use Properties dialog. Let him do it's job!

2Hacker What's up?

[Hacker]

VadiMGP,
Sorry, freakin' lots of work.

The full path of the offending file is:
C:\Documents and Settings\Hacker\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\80nilw6s.default\extensions\ubiquity@labs.mozilla.com\scripts\codemirror\js\mirrorframe.js

I cannot reproduce the error anymore, though.

Well, if it happens again you know where to find me.

[Hacker]

VadiMGP,
Thanks.

A new version avalable.
Main changes are:
- Now querues stored in the separate file - FSEQuery.ini. User have to move all existing queries manually from FSE.INI.
- Bugfixes.

This plugin allows fast search through external engine.

Greetings.

I'm not familiar neither with TC nor with plug-ins but I am very curious to see how it works. Is there an step-by-step tutorial for installation and use of your plug-in?

Thank you in advance.
Best regards

0) download (http://www.locate32.net/) and install/extract locate32 to a directory
1) configure locate, create a DB, do a search with locate32.exe and check that you get results.
2) install the plugin
3) edit the settings of the plugin via FSE.ini, point the directory to parent of locate.exe

i have the following

Code: Select all

[Locate]
Path="C:\xp\util\tcmd7\addons\util\locate32"
Limit=100
BranchView=1
SepThreads=0
InThread=0
Branch=1
Suffix=(%N)
AppendResult=1
SaveQueryToFile=0

4) in tc klick on network neighborhood/FSE and on new search to search

[Config]
Limit=100
InThread=0
Branch=1
Suffix=(%N)
AppendResult=1
SaveQueryToFile=0
SavePath=
Engine=Everything
[Everything]
Path=D:\PROGRAM FILES\PORTABLE APPS IN HERE\UTILS prtble\Everything-1.1.4.301\Everything.exe

Try TC Help. Section 3, subsection "l. Plugins and languages"

Thank you tcvol and thank you frenky.
It doesn't work, though.
When I try to search I get a strange message:
Cannot run:'C:\...\Locate 32-3.1.9.06070\Locate32\locate.exe'
whereas my path from the .ini file is different:
"C:\...\Locate 32-3.1.9.06070\locate32" (I know that locate.exe is actually used, the difference lies in the surprising apparition of the sub-directory Locate32 out of the blue... )
I wonder what happens if I create a new sub-directory named Locate32 and simply copy what is now in \Locate 32-3.1.9.06070...

Bingo! That did it for me but a still think there is some kind of mistake here...
Best regards.
