#438 prob with ln -s index

[Anonymous]

Problem seems to be
I don't want a xxxMB index in my root filesystem, I want it to sit on another virtual drive called /media/big
so I did ln -s /media/big/docFetcher/indexes /opt/DocFetcher-1.1.5/indexes

program.name=DocFetcher

?? is it because partition / is ext3 and partition /media/big is ntfs?
or is it a prob with java, a symlink != its target

Hi,

Most likely, this is because DocFetcher internally resolves all symlinks. To change the index path, you can instead modify the file misc/paths.txt in the DocFetcher folder.
