I''m currently trying to install the latest version of Ferret (0.10.9) on my Ubuntu Dapper (6.06) system. I have tried the gem, but it does not generate the ferret_ext.so file. Ideally I would prefer to install from the gem, but if source works, I''m fine with that too. I am now trying an install from source, but when I run the command ''$ rake ext'' I get the following error when it reaches the ''make'' command: make rake aborted! Command failed with status (127): [make] /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:722:in `sh'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:729:in `sh'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:812:in `sh'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:807:in `sh'' /home/dougal/ferret-0.10.9/Rakefile:137 /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:387:in `execute'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:387:in `execute'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:357:in `invoke'' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/thread.rb:135:in `synchronize'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:350:in `invoke'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:364:in `invoke_prerequisites'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:999:in `each'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:363:in `invoke_prerequisites'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:356:in `invoke'' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/thread.rb:135:in `synchronize'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:350:in `invoke'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:1906:in `run'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:1906:in `run'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/bin/rake:7 /usr/bin/rake:18 This is slightly lost on me as I am a Ruby newbie, hopefully someone will be able to tell me what is going on.

Anyone have a solution, or even a copy of ferret_ext from an i386 Ubuntu Dapper install? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Hello.
We are indexing a large amount of data (about 850,000 records). During the
indexing, every 100,000 items I flush and optimize the index, so the disk
space doesn''t get too large during indexing.
About 700,000 items in, I got this error:
Error occured in fs_store.c:226 - fso_flush_i
flushing src of length 1024
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ferret-0.10.9/lib/ferret/index.rb:517:in
`close''
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ferret-0.10.9/lib/ferret/index.rb:517:in
`flush''
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:229:in `synchronize''
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ferret-0.10.9/lib/ferret/index.rb:514:in
`flush''
Is there a way to find out what happened? It wasn''t a space error, as
there''s plenty of space on the machine.
Also, if I optimize during an index run such as this, do I need to close and
then re-open the index, or will that not affect things?
Thanks for any info you have.
Hi Dougal, Have you tried cd''ing into the ext directory and calling `ruby extconf.rb` and `make` directly? That may solve your problems or at least give you a better idea of what is causing the error. If this doesn''t work I can send you a ferret_ext.so but there will be a new version coming out very soon so I''ll wait until then.

You may be hitting the 2Gb limit in which case you will need to compile Ferret with large-file support. Otherwise, I''m not sure why you''d be getting this error. I''m going to have to improve that error message. Cheers, Dave
Hey Dave, thanks for the reply. At this stage, the file size is about 20GB''s, so it''s a lot. Each file in the index (not optimized) is about 2GB, so it does seem we have hit the limit you are talking about. The box has over 140 GB''s of storage, so it''s not out of space, but it''s consistently stopping at the same point each time. We''ve used gem install ferret to grab the latest (0.10.9) release. What''s the way to compile it with this "large-file" support flag?

Thanks very much to Jens for sending me a working ferret_ext.so, that has things running for the moment. The only thing I can of that was strange about my installs was that is was an Ubuntu Breezy install from CD, upgraded to Dapper by way of modification of the sources.list file. I did this since parallels won''t support Breezy booting for some reason, and I had ran out of blank cds. I have a new server coming next week, so I''ll load that with Dapper and try again. Thanks again guys. Dougal. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
