Increase maximum search results

  • Updated

Scenario

I want to increase the maximum search results displayed in the web client. How can I do that?

Warning!
Increasing these values can increase the use of RAM and have a negative impact on stability and performance.
We therefore recommend only increasing the value step by step to find a fitting configuration.


Solution

If you run your BOC Management Office product on premise, you can follow the instructions below.

If your environment is hosted in the BOC Cloud, please open a support ticket: BOC Group Support

To control the maximum number of search results, there are two different configuration files that need to be adapted:

  • Once on the application server:
    <BOC product installation directory>\conf\adoxx.conf 
# This variable specifies the maximal result size of a single 
# ado.query.def(...).exec({ cacheResult: true }) 
# Type: Integer
# Default: 10000
ADOXX_QUERY_WITH_CACHED_RESULT_MAX_SIZE=15000
  • Second, in the web client on the Tomcat web server:
    <Tomcat installation directory>\webapps\<BOC Product>\adoxx_web.properties 
#######################################################################
#### Search result set limitation.                                 ####
#### Note that since 5.5 the search is performed in a "big data    ####
#### mode" and therefore this is the only valid limitation. By     ####
#### default it is set to 10.000 results -> if a search result     ####
#### would have more results, it will not be shown.                ####
#######################################################################
search.result.max.size = 15000

The application and web server must be restarted for the changes to be applied.
