domain.com/.spotlight: /usr/bin/mod_spotlight_apple_helper failed
Posted: Mar 25, 2008 7:28 PM 		 

Hello,
I get the following error when I try to use my site spotlight search:

"Spotlight Content Search Results

Error: /usr/bin/mod_spotlight_apple_helper failed
While searching for: "sample text" in "/Library/WebServer/Documents"

Make sure:
  • Spotlight is enabled.
  • The web folder (DocumentRoot) has been indexed using the mdimport tool.
  • The type of content you keep in your web folder has appropriate mdimporters.

I did mdimport /Library/WebServer/Documents/ but that didn't help.

Same problem here, with latest builds of system (10.5.2) on xserve, but only with some search terms

Others go thru!
