[help-GIFT] gift indexing error

[Nikhil Vasudev Shirahatti]

Hi,

I followed the instruction from the help-gift archive on
gift-add-collection mailed by Wolfgang Mueller.

I created a .gift-add-collection file in my home /home/nvs directory:
gift-home="/home/nvs"
feature-prefix="/home/nvs/databases/@collection-name@"
image-directory="/home/nvs/images/@collection-name@"
url-prefix="http://localhost/images/@collection-name@";
thumbnail-prefix="@address@hidden"
thumbnail-url-prefix="@address@hidden"

Then I ran the ./gift-add-collection --collection-name "testing-system"

I received the following error message:
./gift-add-collection.pl --collection-name "testing-system"
I am assuming that the system is using ISO-8859-15 as encoding.
Within the xml files generated, we will use UTF-8 as encoding method
url-prefix => http://localhost/images/@collection-name@
feature-prefix => /home/nvs/databases/@collection-name@
gift-home => /home/nvs
thumbnail-url-prefix => @address@hidden
image-directory => /home/nvs/images/@collection-name@
mkdir /home/nvs/images/testing-system_thumbnails
mkdir /home/nvs/databases/testing-system/


 I will read the images in:
 /home/nvs/images/testing-system/

 I will generate feature files which I put into:
 /home/nvs/databases/testing-system

 The index files will be stored in:
 /home/nvs/databases/testing-system/

 The URLs I will generate will have the prefix:
 http://localhost/images/testing-system

PROGRESS: 99%

So, I manually replaced _COLLECTION_ in the collection-id enviromenemt
variable in the gift-config.mrml with /home/nvs/databases.testing-system/

and then ran the ./gift and it said "waiting for connection..."
I ran the applrtviewer Charmer.html and then connected to localhost..

I got the following error:

The ID I am looking for is:/home/nvs/databases/testing-system/, and I did
not find it
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Please advise me as to what I have to do to overcome this error.

I have a project to be done by end of this month for which i need the gift
running. it will be great if someone will help me expediate the process
getting GIFT up and running.

Thanks,
