CFMX 7 verity problem

[Castor_uk]

Hi all

I have set-up a small verity collection from a database, for a client which
uses the new categories option under CFMX7. A user can then either do a string
search and/or pick a category from a drop-down to filter.

Everything works fine until it comes to adding new items.

When the client adds a new item into the DB, the code also runs a cfindex with
an update action. However this appears to add the items multiple times into the
catalogue (not into the database I checked). Using the cfindex tag with refresh
instead of update fixes this problem but then the categories stop working.

Any ideas what I?m doing wrong?

Just to add a bit more information.

After I can back into work this morning it looks like the categories are back
up and working, so I?m just wondering if I?m just going about this the wrong
way. What is the best practice when it comes to creating and administrating a
verity collection, especially when it comes to using categories?

Hi just me again

I looks like I may have found a bug in CFMX7.

I "think" my code is sound and the problem may be with Verity. I found that if
I bounce the Verity service everything starts to work again.

This is using CFINDEX with the update action when adding a new item and with
Refresh when editing an item; I then run an Optimize action just to make sure.
Everything works ok except for the categories untill I bounce the service or
re-create the collection from scratch.

Anyone seen this, or anyone from Macromedia know how to solve this problem.
Its the last bit of the project and I'm keen to get on with my other work asap.

Cheers.

I'm having the EXACT same problem - although I never thought about re-creating
the collection. This is also the last piece of a project that I am working on
and really need to get this bit out...I'm quite eager to get to my SMS stuff!!
