Error 6 when doing a text search

Post by RRbitwise »

XYplorer fails when doing a text search against a directory which
contains 1115 subdirectories and 9417 files.

Here is the error information:

Can you somehow isolate the problem? Could it be connected to that particular file (C:\Distlibs\Microsoft\WXPSP3\Misc\Overview of Windows XP Service Pack 3.xps)?

It does seem that the error occurs on a particular file.
There is only this one XPS file in the directory C:\Distlibs\Microsoft\WXPSP3\Misc
I can give you a copy of this file if you would like it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
[C:\windows\system32]: dir C:\Distlibs\Microsoft\WXPSP3\Misc\*.xps /s
Volume in drive C is W764UIPL
Volume Serial Number is 6A9B-5F4B

Directory of C:\Distlibs\Microsoft\WXPSP3\Misc

Total Files Listed:
1 File(s) 451,107 bytes
0 Dir(s) 407,045,521,408 bytes free
-------------------------------------------------------------------

When running the text search as shown in the attached RRBitwise.jpg
the Error 6 occurs immediately (shown below).

Yes, please do that.

Which content (string) did you look for?

I probably need the whole settings on your Find Files / Contents tab to reproduce the error. A screenshot would be enough for me:

I supplied those screen shots in the attachments to my post on 31 Dec 2018.
For what it's worth, it doesn't matter what text I use as the search argument; any text string results in the failure.

Oh yes, sorry.

Well, I cannot repro the error here. So I assume it must be related to your XPS previewhandler.

When you run this through the address bar, what is returned?

Code: Select all

text get("previewhandler", "xps");
For me it's this:

Code: Select all

GUID: {85862EDA-F507-4d5b-ACA9-BB2C34A85682}
DefaultName: Microsoft XPS Rich Preview Handler
DisplayName: @%SystemRoot%\system32\xpsrchvw.exe,-102

Here is what I get (it looks just like what you get):

GUID: {85862EDA-F507-4d5b-ACA9-BB2C34A85682}
DefaultName: Microsoft XPS Rich Preview Handler
DisplayName: @%SystemRoot%\system32\xpsrchvw.exe,-102


Perhaps you need to have more files in the directory where the .XPS file resides to trigger the failure. I can zip up the entire subdirectory from my system if you think that will help.

You don't get the error when that file is the only file in the folder?

I just created a new directory named XYU and copied "Overview of Windows XP Service Pack 3.xps" to that new directory. There is only this single file in that directory. I then ran the text search against the XYU directory and I immediately got the Error 6.

I am curious what the XPS preview handler has to do with this?

I also just tried completely deleting my XYplorer directory and and of its subdirectories, then installed version 19.50.0000 from scratch. I made no XYplorer configuration changes whatsoever and retried the test. The error still occurs (see the attached 20190105_Error_6.jpg)

Are there any types of debugging things I can turn on to get you better information? I do have Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 installed, so perhaps I could do something with the debugger?

I'm open to suggestions.

Here is some more (hopefully useful) information.

Disabling the XPS viewer results in the Error 6 no longer occurring.

To disable the XPS viewer:

- Open the Control Panel and then select "Programs and Features".
- In the resulting display, click on "Turn Windows features on or off" near the upper left hand corner.
This causes a small dialog box to appear which is titled "Windows Features".
- Scroll down to the "XPS Viewer" entry and uncheck the selection box.
- Re-boot.

I re-enabled the XPS Viewer and re-ran the test (just for a consistency/sanity check), and the Error 6 returned.

When you take the latest beta (v19.50.0105), then select that file in the file list and run this script through the Address Bar:

Code: Select all

text extracttext();
Does it work or do you get an error?
