Hi Barett,

1) Both solutions have it's own features and it's up to you which you prefer:
shared webserver (Apache, PHP, MySQL):
- KT and SugarCRM can interact more easily
- Both programs can be accessed without specifying the port (both use default = 80)
- Better performance

Seperate webserver:
- Easier installation
- Easier upgrading

If you're going to use a shared webserver install the webserver first and then use the source only packages of KT and SugarCRM. If not use the appliance packages and don't install a webserver yourself.

Sounds like a pretty good plan. As far as I know this plugin was never really completed and is not available. The development cost of this plugin might be greater than the cost of your container setup.
It might also be more user friendly since in the plugin setup users would have to enter the passphrase.

Also make sure you encrypt the traffic between your main server and backup server when sending over the unencrypted files and consider SSL for KT.

Hi.
I'm just on the point of setting up Knowledge Tree for a client and I'm in a similar situation. The server must sit in a datacentre, so naturally the client is very concerned about the security of the documents.

My first thought was to encrypt the files as they are written to the disk, but none of the solutions we looked at had this built in. I'd still be interested in this solution if someone has made it work.

My second thought was to create a truecrypt (or scramdisk) container, and mount that at an appropriate point on the directory structure so that all files are written into the container. The only downside to this is if the server is rebooted, it would need manual intervention to type in the passphrase and re-mount the container. Given that reboots are infrequent, we felt we could live with this.

Now the problem becomes one of backing up. The client expects to put around 50Gb of data into the system initially and this will rise over time. If files were stored individually then backup is not a problem. You can simply rsync them over to a remote machine, and only the ones which have changed will be sent. However, if your data is stored in a truecrypt or scramdisk container, then every time you backup you have to unmount the container and copy the WHOLE thing over to the remote server, and then remount it. 50Gb to a remote server would take a long time, and the server would be unavailable for the whole time.

So, now my thinking is this. I have a truecrypt container mounted on the main server, and a similar one mounted on the remote server. To backup, I either use rsync over a SSH connection or I could just connect the two servers via a VPN. The backup copies the unencrypted files from one encrypted container to another. The only way security fails is if the server is compromised while it is running. If the server is stopped then the truecrypt containers remain unmounted.

OK, so what do people think of this as a plan. Is it feasible? What are the flaws in this plan?

The code does not use this consistently as you have observed.

There are plans to change the underlying ORM layer in future which would make this 'feature' much possible.

Subject: error "Accessing unregistered resource"
Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2008 5:19 am (GMT 0)

Hi all,

i got "Accessing unregistered resource" error while navigateo 1 page to 2 one while doing tag cloud search.

I noticed the url of the first navigation is

http://localhost/kt/plugin.php?kt_path_info=ktcore.tagcloud.plugin/TagCloudRedirection&tag=sample

and second navigation url is

http://localhost/kt/plugin.php?kt_path_info=ktcore.tagcloud.plugin/dashboard.php&page=1&sort_on=ktcore.columns.title&sort_order=asc

I n that second one "/dashboard.php" is comes instead of "/TagCloudRedirection" while replacing the dashborad by /TagCloudRedirection it working fine. Am did in manual .. But want to correct in application... In which page can go and change this......

yes while uploading the documents through application document and folders having permision_object_id and permission_lookup_id (propally taken from tables permision_object & permission_lookup).... Now am aslo doing my own import module ..... In that, i have taken permision object and look up ids from these tables corresponding thier folder location. If i upload to root folder then am taken root folder p.object and lookups... After doing some permission settings i got the db constaint error....

k, it my suggestion to provide the field wise restriction by user wise in future version. It cute suitable for KT.

Hi there

Can you tell me what is happening with this, we're having the same problem but have a newer version - is there a patch or add on or something - or can this be configured in anyway.

Cheers!

Subject: Strategies for conent indexing via Google Mini/Appliance
Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2008 9:18 pm (GMT 0)

I'm a new KnowledgeTree user/developer and am also the proud new owner of a Google Mini search box. We are using the Mini for our global/federated search capability, and need to index KT content (document content and metadata).

I'm just starting down the path of getting my head around the problem and am currently considering a few options:

- a traditional 'crawl', pointing the Mini at the 'browse documents' page and letting it do its thing, presumably with some filtering in place to hone in on the actual documents (seems the simplest, but least effective approach)

- building a Mini-specific set of pages (done on demand - less likely; or done hourly/nightly/etc - more likely) that are accessible only to the Mini and that expose all commonly-accessible documents and metadata on crawlable pages (not trying to solve user-specific permission issues on the first try) and let the Mini crawl that (likely next simplest, but still not ideal)

- alternate to the above, but with a dynamically-updated 'static' page (via plug-in module) that is kept up to date in near-real-time (as docs are added, moved, removed, metadata is changed, etc)

- writing KT API-based code (PHP API or PHP/Java WS API) to create XML that meets the Google 'Feeds' spec and pushing that to the Mini. This would presumably be done on a periodic basis. (seems most desirable from an architectural standpoint, but also looks to be the most work)

I'm open to any/all other (helpful! ) suggestions, and am hoping that someone else has tried out one or more of these (or other) approaches. Once I eventually get something going, I'll definitely document the process and post it here.

Thanks!!

I am having issues with the $default variable in terms of various classes with a _table() function, which I have assumed that function assigns to that class the proper database table to access. However, the code:
Code: global $default;
return $default->groups_table;

fails. There is no "$default->x" for various classes, and hence a later SQL calls fail because it doesn't fill in a table name to search from. I have started to fill these with:

Code: return KTUtil::getTableName("correct_table_name");

I found the getTableName function was used in some classes, but not all.

Is there something that I'm missing, or is this form of substitution acceptable? I hope I'm missing something, because every time I implement a new function with the API, I have to spend hours tracing the error (and so far all of them trace back to this issue).

Hi VS

The default XML used in Basic mode is located at C:\Program Files\Common Files\KnowledgeTree\Hot Folders\kthotfoldersmetadata.xml.

The tag that allows you to specify the upload folder location is KTPath. Please note that the path you specify should be relative to the root folder. If, for example, you want to upload the files to a folder called "Current", which sits inside "Invoices", which is in the root folder (i.e. root->Invoices->Current), you will set the tag to
Code: <KT:KTPath>/Invoices/Current</KT:KTPath>

Hi m1kkel,

One of the things that KnowledgeTree's scanning interface does is to OCR the document and add the text as hidden content within a pdf. This doesn't help you much unfortunately. ;(

KnowledgeTree does not provide permission level control over what fields/fieldsets can be displayed on a per user/group basis.

Subject: DOT and XLT files not indexing
Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2008 2:23 pm (GMT 0)

Hi all,

I've got somthing strange with KTDMS 3.5.2c on Windows 2003 Server.

MIME Type for DOT and XLT seems corrects :

dot application/msword Word Template OpenOffice Text Extractor

xlt application/vnd.ms-excel Excel Template OpenOffice Spreadsheet Extractor

But my XLT and DOT files stays in queue "Documents with Indexing Problems"

Here it is the diagnostique for a DOT file :

CR REUNION FR-01 I 2005.dot

debug: Indexing docid: 66 extension: 'dot' mimetype: 'application/msword' extractor: 'OOTextExtractor'
info: Processing docid: 66.

error: Could not extract contents from document 66
error:

Rather strange no?

Is somebody had the same problem?

Thank in advance for your answers.

Stephane.
