System administrators can populate the luceneindex folder with
indexing files to test and run the InSite Search (ISS) main search index
functionality.
Note
Searches performed during or prior to index setup return no
results. Depending on site size and hardware, it could take a few minutes for
the index to complete, but in most cases, it takes less time than that. While
the index is building, the same queries could return different results as more
data is added to the index.
To generate the main search index files:
- Check in the page(s).
- Select a page in the Site Tree.
- Click the Check In button in the
Edit toolbar (or right-click the page in the
Site Tree and select Check
In).

- Mark checked in pages for publish. Choose one of the
following steps:
- Select Mark/Unmark for Publish in the Edit tab.
Note
If the selected content item is a parent, you are
given the option to choose Page or
Page and Children. If the content item
has no children, the option menu does not display.
The
Mark/Unmark pages for publish dialog displays.

- Select the checkbox in the Marked for Publish column to associate the content item(s)
with one or multiple publishing targets.
- Select the appropriate version of the content item(s) to mark for your
chosen publishing target(s) in the Version to
Publish column.
- Click OK.
Note
Mark a page for publish outside workflow by
right-clicking the page in the Site Tree,
select Page Properties, and configure the
action at the Mark for Publish tab.
- Submit a publish by completing the following
steps:
- In the Edit toolbar, select Page, Page and Children or Site from the Publish
drop-down list.
The
Publish dialog opens.

- Select a publishing target.
- Select Incremental or Full.
The Publish Submitted dialog opens.
- Click Monitor Publishes to view the pending publish, or click Close to
exit the dialog.
- Recycle the DSS app pool in Internet Information
Services (IIS).
- Delete existing main index files in the App_Data\LuceneIndex folder.
- Enter an address to the DSS website in a web browser. http://website.com/dss/x4.xml
This step triggers the re-indexing of content.
