Hi.

I suceeded in a project using JPA + Hibernate Search, while I am failing now that the jpa config is embedded in spring xml. Things are writen on database while the lucene index is not populated at all

<bean id="entityManagerFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="persistenceProviderClass" value="org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence" />
<property name="jpaPropertyMap">
<map>
<entry key="hibernate.dialect" value="${hibernate.dialect}" />
<entry key="hibernate.connection.driver_class" value="${hibernate.connection.driver_class}" />
<entry key="hibernate.connection.username" value="${hibernate.connection.username}" />
<entry key="hibernate.connection.password" value="${hibernate.connection.password}" />
<entry key="hibernate.connection.url"
value="jdbc:${hibernate.connection.database}://${hibernate.connection.host}:${hibernate.connection.port}/${database.name}" />
<entry key="hibernate.max_fetch_depth" value="3" />
<entry key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="${hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto}" />
<entry key="hibernate.ejb.cfgfile" value="hibernate.cfg.xml" />
<entry key="hibernate.search.default.directory_provider"
value="org.hibernate.search.store.FSDirectoryProvider" />
<entry key="hibernate.search.default.indexBase" value="~/.lucene/indexes" />
</map>
</property>
</bean>

The ~/.lucene folder exists.

I call

EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();
Search.getFullTextEntityManager(em).createIndexer(Wish.class).startAndWait();

while the app startup, being emf the @autowired EntityManagerFactory.

I can persist an instance of wish and retrieve it but there is no index built, so the full text query fails.
I think I am missing something but can't figure out why, with the same amount of configuration, but with the jpa properties in the standard persistence.xml file, everything was working.

Any advice?

Hi,
could you check if the Search listeners need to be registered explicitly when using Spring?
they should be auto-registered, provided you have the correct versions of Hibernate (so also check duplicates and incompatible versions on classpath).
What is the effect of starting the MassIndexer? is it logging anything, throwing errors, or just nothing?

I solved moving the EMFactory config inside persistence.xml rather than embedded in a bean declaration.
No errors, just no index are created.

This seems to be the official documentation
http://community.jboss.org/wiki/SpringH ... nateSearch
and declare everything in the persistence.xml
I can't find nothing about some listener to declare...

Hi Daniele,
did you understand why? could you create a unit test and open an issue?
If you download the sources, you'll see a new module dedicated to test integrations with Spring.

The error were somewhere else: http://opensource.atlassian.com/project ... SEARCH-608

and I discovered that is different, when the path is ~/.lucene is taken as a relative path, so under my poroject I got a ~/.lucene folder.
I update the bug.
