Hi! Just a wild guess - I didn''t ever use Ferret on Windows - Do you have a compiler installed? Can you build and install other gems with native extensions?

So I downloaded the latest Windows version and the installation is successful. Next step is RDig. And I see you are the author of RDig. Installing gave message "Could not load rubyful_soup.rb". First I installed Hpricot, so there is no need for rubyful_soup.rb. I tried to figure out what is wrong? Reading at the code, I found RDig is made for Linux and Unix platform. The path # load content extractors Dir["#{File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__))}/content_extractors/**/*.rb"].each do |f| begin require f rescue LoadError puts "could not load #{f}: #{$!}" end end I changed to below-> the error message is disappear. # load content extractors Dir["#{File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__))}\\content_extractors\\**\\*.rb"].each do |f| begin require f rescue LoadError puts "could not load #{f}: #{$!}" end end But I still could not get index. Because rdig -c config.rb -q ''ruby'' gave no result. I changed from url_type = RDig.config.crawler.start_urls.first =~ /^file:\/\// ? :file : :http to url_type = RDig.config.crawler.start_urls.first =~ /^https?:\/\// ? :http : :file my url is "C://data_store//files" But still no index. So if I have more time, I will work further on it to make it work in Windows. And I will report to you if you want. Ngoc -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Besides that, It would be cool if you could send me a patch with the changes you had to apply to rdig when you made it work on windows. cheers, Jens -- webit!

I think the reason is derivative path is not reached RDig.config.crawler.start_urls.each { |url| add_url(url, filterchain) } To tried to print url value by RDig.config.crawler.start_urls.each { |url| add_url(url, filterchain) puts url } ->It looped only one path which is C://data_store//files When I changed to file:///data_store//files, It looped a lot but still no index. I have a lot of files in my Windows pc. I want to search it. Windows XP search is not good. Using Windows Desktop Search index my files when machine is not active. So It will reduce my hard drive life time. That is the reason, I am searching other search software than Windows XP standard search software. I will report to you patch for windows. It will take a while, because now I am very busy with other tasks. Thanks Jens ngoc -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
