The search does not find a file that I download...
« on: August 16, 2008, 04:51:17 PM »

Hello,

I was downloading a file named for example "At good Races.avi".
I searched that file and the search did not find the file. Though there was sources because I was dowloading ! It is strange isn't it ?

When I looked in the details of the file I saw that there was only one source with this filename. There was many different filenames. "Good Races.avi" was the most used filename and when using this name in the search it was found...

Is it a bug ?

Thanks

No. By default individual search keywords are connected with "AND". Your first search would only find files which contained all three words: "at" AND "good" AND "races". As you say, there's only one source which has all three words in the file name. You didn't mention the type of search you executed, but that source may be on another server, or there can be more reasons why that only one wasn't found.

If you want to search for files that contain either of the words, enter: at OR good OR races. You may build up more sophisticated earch expressions with the keywords AND, OR, NOT.

As I only use the Kad network it is maybe the reason. And I did not verify that this source with this filename was present in the sources...

Thanks for the explanations.
