Subject: Simple Galago Quickstart Question
Hi,

I just started learning about search and purchased a copy of Search
Engine Information Retrieval in Practice. I am trying to set up Galago
to do the exercises, but am having some trouble. I followed the
instructions up to the Building an Index section, and that's where I
am running into an issue. I am on windows 7.

I typed the command a few ways:

galago build /tmp/wiki-small.index /tmp/wiki-small.corpus
galago build \tmp\wiki-small.index \tmp\wiki-small.corpus
galago build /tmp/wiki-small.index /tmp/wiki-small.corpus ->
substituting /tmp for my local location of wiki-smalll.corpus

but I get this message each time

Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: Couldn't find
directory /tmp/wiki-small.corpus at
org.galagosearch.core.tools.BuildIndex.getSplitStage(BuildIndex.java:
89)

with some additional lines that are similar

Does anyone know what I need to do?

Thanks,

In this command:
    galago build /tmp/wiki-small.index /tmp/wiki-small.corpus

This is the filename of the index: /tmp/wiki-small.index
This is the filename of the corpus file: /tmp/wiki-small.corpus

On Unix and Mac OS X, there's a directory called /tmp, so these
commands work well.  This probably isn't what you want on Windows.

You need to figure out where your wiki-small.corpus file is so you can
tell Galago where to find it.  Perhaps you'd write a command like
this:

galago build c:\wiki-small.index c:\wiki-small.corpus

Thanks for the quick response!

I got it to work, but I had to make a copy of the wiki-small.corpus
file in my bin folder and use this command

galago build wiki-small.index wiki-small.corpus

I tried a few other cmds before that, but they didn't work. Just
wanted to share what I tried below for anyone else who is on windows

galago build c:\wiki-small.index c:\wiki-small.corpus - that did not
work
galago build c:\wiki-small.corpus - (without the index part) that did
produce the line with status: http:/localhost, but when i pasted it
into IE8 it did not work
also tried galago build having it look into the local directory where
my wiki-small.corpus file was but it didn't work for some reason

Thanks!
