[Samba] WSP Search Issue: Can’t Find Filenames or Directories, Only Content

[mohamed elbruki]

Hi Noel,

I've been trying to get the WSP server working for about a week now, and I
could really use your guidance — I’m excited about the functionality and
want to help test it properly.

My issue is that I can’t seem to search for **filenames or directory
names** via the WSP protocol. Interestingly, content *within* files shows
up just fine in searches, and something like `kind:video` also works as
expected. Just to clarify , I set up a share in windows and I am testing
using windows 10 search box.

Is this a current limitation (since I know the feature is still in
progress), or does it sound like I’ve misconfigured something?

Here’s my setup for reference:

smb.conf:
    [global]
        bind interfaces only = Yes
        getwd cache = Yes
        interfaces = lo net1
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
        max log size = 10000
        min receivefile size = 16384
        netbios name = DC
        realm = CLOUDOWNER.LOCAL
        server role = active directory domain controller
        server services = s3fs, rpc, nbt, wrepl, ldap, cldap, kdc, drepl,
winbindd, ntp_signd, kcc
        smb3 directory leases = Yes
        socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=65536
SO_SNDBUF=65536
        workgroup = CLOUDOWNER
        idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes
        use sendfile = Yes
        wsp backend = elasticsearch
        elasticsearch:username map = /etc/samba/map_searchusers

    [share]
        path = /srv/share
        guest ok = yes
        read only = no
        browseable = yes
        vfs objects = shadow_copy2
        shadow:snapdir = .snap
        shadow:snapdirseverywhere = yes
        shadow:format = _csi-snap
        wsp = true
        elasticsearch:index = cloudowner_samba_search
        elasticsearch:max results = 200
        elasticsearch:address =
elasticsearch.elasticsearch.svc.cluster.local

FsCrawler config (_settings.yaml):
    name: "cloudowner"
    fs:
      url: "/srv/share"
      excludes:
        - "*/~*"
      attributes_support: true
      add_filesize: true
      raw_metadata: true
      index_content: true
      filename_as_content: true
      index_folders: true
      remove_deleted: true
      continue_on_error: true
      ocr:
        enabled: "true"
        language: "eng"
        pdf_strategy: ocr_and_text

    elasticsearch:
      push_templates: false

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for your work on
this — it’s really exciting to see this feature coming to Samba.

Best regards,
Mohamed Elbruki
