Search results not sending to correct page

[amacleod]

I have used zoom 4.x successfully in the past and am having trouble with 5. Or maybe I am just rusty. I am using the javascript output. After indexing the results come out fine but do not link to the pages. It appears that the index is pointing to an absolute address rather than a relative one. Or perhaps I have not put the files in the right directory? Or.. Assistance would be appreciated

Your base URL setting is most likely incorrect. If you have the ZCFG file from your old V4 install, you can probably load it into the new version so that it will pickup the same settings.

But if not, see this FAQ:
Q. When I click on a link in the search results, I get a 404 "Page Not Found" or "Page Cannot Be Found" error (http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/support/faq_problems.html#wrongbaseurl)

If you need to have relative linking, then your base URL would need to be set appropriately. Something like "./" or "../" depending on the location of your search files to your content files. There is a chapter on this in the Users Guide (http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/usersguide.html) (Appendix 9.2)
