Hi there,

want to test Foxit pdf iFilter on a 64-bit Win2003 Server MOSS2007 environment. Have installed the latest Foxit x64 iFilter and added the registry key 38 (found in an other thread):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\12.0 \Search\Applications\<GUID>\Gather\Search\Extensio ns\ExtensionList\38

Nevertheless my pdf's are crawled but with the additional message in brackets (translated from German into English):
"The filter event could not process the element. Possibly you're not using the latest filter for that type of element. Install the correct filter and restart the crawl".

Is there any thing else I could check?


Thanks in advance,
Jens

Hi there,

found the solution at the end of that forum (thread "MOSS 2007 - IFilter for Windows 2003 x64 not working").

The solution provided by Anthony was:

"
Got this working. We had to stop and restart search and everything worked. If this is indeed part of the process it should be documented by FOXIT as such.

net stop osearch
net start osearch
net stop spsearch
net start spsearch
"


Thanks Anthony!
