Searching Collections with K2 Server
|
Using the rck2 utility to search K2 Server documents
The rck2 command-line utility lets you search collections associated with a K2 Server in a K2 Search System. The rck2.exe file, which starts the rck2 utility, is located in the cf_root\lib\_nti40\bin directory in Windows, and in the cf_root/lib/platform/bin directory in UNIX.
In these pathnames, cf_root refers to the ColdFusion root directory. In Windows, this is typically C:\CFusionMX; in UNIX, this is typically /opt/coldfusionmx. In UNIX, platform refers to the UNIX version of the server that runs ColdFusion: _solaris, _hpux11, or _ilnx21.
rck2 syntax
Use the following syntax to start rck2 from the command line:
rck2 -server <servername> -port <portno>
For example: c:\cfusionmx\lib\_nti40\bin\rck2 -server localhost -port 9901.
The following table describes rck2 syntax elements:
