<P dir=ltr>Thanks for the reply. Would it help if I shared the dataset version
and the IIAB rpm version.</P>

<DIV>Hi Anish,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>I can tell you that we have not supported Fedora IIAB rpm
packages for well over a year - the recommended way to install is via Python
pip package manager. I don't know what version of the IIAB software is
in XSCE nor what version of the dataset you have. If the software is
really from the very old rpm package and the dataset (hard disk) is newer,
that could be why search is failing.
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We try to ensure the latest software can always work with an old dataset,
but we do not assume that old versions of the software can work with a new
dataset. This is because we assume old copies of the dataset will be
floating around for a long time with no easy upgrade path, but upgrading the
software is (should be) easy.
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have had very little time to devote to IIAB in the past seven months,
and no one has stepped in to take up the slack. So the IIAB project is
in a state of neglect, although it is still being deployed and used
successfully and I am getting a steady stream of requests for the
dataset.</DIV>

<P dir=ltr>Hi,</P>
<P dir=ltr>Another question here from Bhagmalpur. So we installed the IIAB
disk on the machine here and it works great except text search on wikipedia.
Searching in Gutenberg somewhat works. I know some later XSCE release
shipped with a fixed version of IIAB.</P>
<P dir=ltr>We are using a derivative of XSCE 3.1 here (between that and v4).
Question is could we just upgrade the IIAB rpm to the latest one and expect
it to work. I also need to tinker with it to add TED videos and other media
to it. </P>
