[EP-tech] Re: search error

Hey Denis,

In case you needed more details on how to implement xapian... On 3.3, you just need to install the xapian extensions (so that's a core library and perl bindings (Search::Xapian)), as soon as this is installed EPrints will pick it up. You will need, however, to reindex the eprint dataset for this to work with  existing eprint objects.

Seb.

Hi Igor,

faceted search, but I don't know where to start!
