Ferret talk - Mar 2006 - ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in search results act_as Ferret

Hello,

I''ve installed the Ferret gem and also got the act_as_ferret code from 
the wiki.
I''ve set up my model "Branch" to act as ferret using the code
below.

acts_as_ferret :options => {:fields => [''name'',
''body_text'', ''address'']}

I''ve also set up a ferret_controller with the code below

def find
  if params[:search_terms]
    @branch_results = Branch.find_by_contents(params[:search_terms])
    render_text @branch_results.inspect
  end
end

I''ve done some updates and the index files seem to be being generated 
ok.
If I go to mywebapp/ferret/find?search_terms=gamston where "gamston"
is
the name of one of the branches I get

--- []

as the result.
If I go to mywebapp/ferret/find?search_terms=* I get

ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in Ferret#find
Couldn''t find Branch with ID=5

There are no Branches with an ID of 5. Does anyone have any ideas whats 
going on with my system. I tried my best to trouble shoot the issue but 
to no avail.

Any help is appreciated.
Tom Styles

I''d say that must read 
acts_as_ferret :fields => [''name'',
''body_text'', ''address'']

What Version of acts_as_ferret are you using ? 

You should really use the one from the svn repository as described
there: http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/ 
The plugin repository is
svn://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/trunk/plugin/acts_as_ferret

Kasper Weibel and me are actively working on the plugin there, the Code
in the Wiki is more or less outdated. There also is a small rails project 
utilizing the plugin, under
svn://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/trunk/demo

Thanks Jens,
I''m having a lot of difficulty connecting to the svn because of our
firewall. Are there any other ways in which the files can be downloaded.

Thanks

I attached an archive containing the current trunk to the wiki front
page at http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/wiki .
