Hi,
as far as I can see,
UPDINDEX cannot be set in the GUI when creating a database. Is this correct?
So how would I proceed to change my existing database created without this option and updated and queried by users constantly into an database with this option to make retrieval faster? Is it correct that with UPDINDEX true there is no need anymore to "optimize" the index from time to time?
Initially I thought of exporting the existing DB as XML and then using this as source for a new DB with UPDINDEX set true. How do I do this without the GUI?
Oh, and could you please make it possible to choose UPDINDEX as an option in the GUI?
Best regards

Hi Cerstin,
currently, the
UPDINDEX provides incremental support for the value index structures (texts and attribute values). It will be mapped to the GUI as soon as the path and fulltext will also be able to do incremental updates.
If you want to test the flag, you can use the input line on top of the GUI and type in "set updindex on" in the "Command" mode before creating a new database.
Hope this helps,

I tested it and it seems to be enough to have text and attribute indexes up to date.
I hope this will also solve another issue I have with slow processing: When searching the TEI collection, I always query the "collect" DB, too to provide users with hits they already saved and to make sure nothing is stored twice there. Thus, a growing "collect" DB with broken indexes slows down everything and causes server time outs.
Best regards
