After You Install > Post-installation Tasks > ConfigureHelpIndex

ConfigureHelpIndex

This task creates the help index catalog for the indexing service.

Option

Description

AlwaysRebuildCatalog

Select whether to delete and rebuild the help index catalog. The default is False.

CatalogName

Enter the name of the catalog that the indexing service creates.

CatalogPath

Enter the path to the catalog that the indexing service creates. This is the location where the catalog is stored, not the location of the files to be indexed. If you do not enter a path, the default value of SearchPath is used.

ComputerName

Enter the name of the machine where the indexing service is configured. You only need the name if you configure the indexing service on a remote machine. Otherwise, the default is the server where the task is executed.

DeployPath

Enter the path to the deploy folder on the Web Server that stores the help files. The help system assumes the vroot folder has a Help subfolder. Typically, this argument maps to the $(Platform_DeployPath) or $(Platform_Help_Location) properties. The task adds “\help” to deploy folder if it is not already there.
