Ferret talk - Oct 2006 - AaF not indexing models when no index present in multi_searc

The first time I tried to run a multi_search, I got an error and 
discovered there were no indexes for any of the models. index > model 
folders were there but no actual indexes. I couldn''t figure out how to 
get it to create indexes so I edited a record for each model which 
created all the indexes. Then when I ran the search, everything worked 
well.

Is there a bug related to this somewhere or anyway to better force index 
creation when none exists.  I''m running the newest version (but not 
trunk) of each Ferret and acts_as_ferret

calling Model.find_by_contents(''some query'') on each model
would have
been sufficient, this method does rebuild the index if it doesn''t exist
yet.

This is a known issue (there''s a #todo in the code somewhere...). I
opened up a ticket for this one. Hope to get it fixed soon ;-)


cheers,

Thanks for that. It''s nice to know it''s not because I messed
up
something. Everything works fine for now.  Thanks for the great plugin 
and for taking the time to answer so many questions on this forum. 
They''ve been a big help ironing out other issues too.
