as BASIC were pwd is transmitted near clear text (B64enc).
This has some implication as RFC 2617 requires and recommends a password hash MD5(user:realm:pwd) for DIGEST.
!!! before activating DIGEST you have to reassign all passwords !!! to allow new calculation of the hash
- default authentication is still BASIC
- configuration at this time only manually in (DATA/settings) or defaults/web.xml (<auth-method>
- the realmname is in defaults/yacy.init adminRealm=YaCy-AdminUI
- fyi: the realmname is shown on login screen
- changing the realm name invalidates all passwords - but for security you are encouraged to do so (as localhostadmin)
- implemented to support both, old hashes for BASIC and new hashes for BASIC and DIGEST
- to differentiate old / new hash the in Jetty used hash-prefix "MD5:" is used for new pwd-hashes ( "MD5:hash" )
- all non-dht targets (previously separated into 'robinson' for dht-like
queries and 'node' for solr queries) are non 'extra' peers, which are
queries using solr
- these extra-peers are now selected using a ranking on last-seen,
peer-tag-matches, node-peer flags, peer age, and link count. The ranking
is done using a weight and a random factor.
- the number of extra peers is 50% of the dht peers
- the dht peers now exclude too young peers to prevent bad results
during strong growth of the network
- the number of dht peers (and therefore extra-peers) is reduced when
the memory of the peer is low and/or some documents still appear in the
indexing-queue. This shall prevent a peer from deadlocks when p2p
queries are made in a fast sequence on weak hardware.
- this allows additional features, like servlet configuration via web.xml and many more things.
- currently the standard servlets are still configured in the code (so the supplied defaults/web.xml is not realy needed, yet),
but could be expanded
- lookup for web.xml - 1. in /DATA/SETTINGS then in /defaults
as path for solr index dumps (instead of the SEGMENTS path). This will
make a maintenance of index backups easier. It will also provide a tool
to migrate from an freeworld index to a webportal index.
- user entry in UserDB with admin right can login to access protected pages
- dto. admin user, choosen username is stored in conf (adminAccountUserName=)
not-flushed Solr cache is now handled in this way:
- it is smaller by default
- an Solr-internal process is started to flush the cache periodically
(this does NOT clean the cache, just removes old objects)
- a Solr-external process (the standard YaCy cleanup-process) now has
direct access to the solr internal cache and flushes them completely.
The time frame for such a flush is defined by the cleanup-process
frequency, by default 10 minutes.
- transformed log lines to String before they are stored because the
storage space is about 1:250 (45kb for one line before transformation,
180 bytes afterwards)
- this saves up to 10MB RAM so we can increase the number of lines to
1000 again.
the right content domain (i.e. identifying that it is an image, text
etc.) because it used the file extension and not an existing mime type
assignment.
- fixed the new setting that images shall be loaded for a better image
search.
- both fixes together makes it now possible to crawl
commons.wikimedia.org which makes use of 'funny' document names (i.e.
ending with .jpg while the document is html)
webgraph index which is temporary filled with the crawl profile key.
This is used to select a set of documents for post-processing as soon as
a crawl is finished. Now the postprocessing for a specific crawl is
started when that specific crawl is finished and not at the end of all
post-processing steps.
is visible whenever a location is available in the search result.
To activate this, the search.navigation property in yacy.conf must be
modified to the new default values.
for anchor attributes.
- this caused that large portions of the parser code had to be adopted
as well
- added a counter target_order_i for anchor links in webgraph
computation
fuzzy_signature_copycount_i, which count the number of copies of
non-unique documents and assigns this to each document. Thus, each
document there is a number assigned which shows how many copies of this
document exists.
These fields are disabled by default.
like normal documents. Using this option (by default on at this moment;
this might change soon) it is possible to get the exif data into the
search index to be used in image search.
