Constellio search/indexing

Constilleio search / indexing

Activate the search servlet in your installation

The search servlet is deactivated by default.

1. Edit the <tomcat>/webapps/<Tempus Serva>/WEB-INF/web.xml
2. Remove comments from the search servlet
3. Remove comments from the search filter

If you are using web container security please remove it from the search servlet: The servlet filter will handle authentication of crwaler robots using a specialized form of basic authetication (normal users will be redirected to the main servlet instead).

Option: Create a user for crawling

You will need at least 1 user for crawling the content in Tempus Serva, possibly more if content restrictions apply to different search user groups. All group and policies will be respected through the indexing.
