SYMPTOMS
========
When you issue a query to the Index Server, your browser will return the
following error message:
Query is too expensive.
CAUSE
=====
If the content index is out of date, and you are executing queries that must be
enumerated, you will get the above error message.
WORKAROUND
==========
Wait until the index is up to date.
Place CiForceUseCi=FALSE in the .idq file for the query. The default value is
TRUE.
You may also need to increase the following values:
hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\contentindex\MaxQueryExecutionTime
hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\contentindex\MaxRestrictionNodes
MORE INFORMATION
================
NOTE: If the query is being executed through ADO and IXSSO, changing
MaxQueryExecutionTime haS no effect, because ADO sets a time-out of 30 seconds
that can not be changed.
Additional query words: expansive
