I''m having some problems with getting the drb server to work correctly on my production server. As a workaround I tried disabling automatic indexing and have a cron job manually update the index every hour or so. I disabled the automatic indexing with: def ferret_enabled? false end But whenever I try Page.rebuild_index I get a ''wrong number of arguments''

Hi, in a production environment we are running into "MySQL server has gone away" errors (see below) when we call rebuild_index in aaf. This happens sporadically. Any suggestions for what might be wrong or workarounds? I guess we try a reconnect before we call rebuild_index?

I set up ferret and it''s running fine normally. Now I want to hook up the backgroundrb server. However whenever I try to do a search, I get this error: (druby://localhost:9010) /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1075:in `method_missing'' (druby://localhost:9010) ./vendor/plugins/acts_as_ferret/lib/remote_index.rb:20:in `find_id_by_contents'' (druby://localhost:9010)

Hi. We''ve had some problems with ferret not being able to load our classes (stack trace below for the curious). I nailed it down to a deployment issue, where an old instance of ferret drb was running. I don''t understand the details quite yet, but the result was the the old ferret was never shutdown during redeployment, and attempts were made to start up a new one. Anywho,

I am getting these errors after switchign to dRb: It is trying to call ''add'' on MY SourceListing class, not extended with the ferret indexing methods. Any ideas on where to fix this? I''m combing through the code now. no luck, trying to call class method instead ferret server error undefined method `add'' for SourceListing:Class

After switching to the DRb server, I am experiencing strange behavior when sorting on score. My app was working as expected before the switch. Both before and after the switch, my app sorts properly on other fields, such as date. For sorting on score, I am using the following option find_by_contents option: :sort => Ferret::Search::SortField::SCORE Before switching to DRb, this worked

Hi all, We''re attempting to use Ferret with the DRb server at the moment, and it doesn''t work, at all... = Executive Summary The DRb server process keeps on calling the remote index to the DRb server process... Which means DRb is calling itself, and itself, and itself, until Ruby kills the Thread with a SystemStackLevel error. = The excruciating details... # Mongrel is

Hi, Having recently converted to using ferret_server on my staging site my deployment is now failing due to the following error when attempting to rebuild the indexes on my models: from (irb):1>> Post.rebuild_index Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - script from (druby://127.2.0.1:9100) /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:243:in `mkdir'' from (druby://127.2.0.1:9100)

Hi all, I cannot make aaf (rev. 220) use my custom analyzer, despite following the indications @ http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/wiki/AdvancedUsage To pinpoint the problem, I created a model + a simple analyzer with 2 stop words : "fax" and "gsm". test 1 : model.rebuild_index + model.find_by_contents("fax") # fax is a stop word. => I get a

We''ve been running into problems with ferret indexing lately. The problem is intermittent and some times it persists. Just got this after wiping the index and redeploying: NoMethodError (undefined method `add'' for Solution:Class): (druby://10.1.65.87:9009) /data/releases/20071111152414/vendor/rails/activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb:1238:in `method_missing''

Hello, I have been trying to set up the remote indexing for acts_as_ferret and followed the guide here: http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/wiki/DrbServer I added :remote => true to my models and then specified host and port for the production environment. After defining the host/port for production, I tried to run my development server and received the following error:

Using the Drb allows me to synchronize writes to the index in a multi mongrel environment. I was under the impression that the remote index would not block if two mongrels were searching the index. Is that the case? This line in ferret_server.rb makes me think otherwise: # Calls are not queued atm, so this will block until the call returned. # def method_missing(name,

Hi there, after recently deploying my app, I have noticed that the search results are not being displayed... When I look in my app, I also notice that the apps content (search criterea) is not being indexed, so I dont have an index folder being created. I read on a google post that it may be that the ferret.yml server isn''t started (or perhaps the content of this file are not right) I

Hi there, I''ve just started using aaf for searching and it''s running well apart from one error I received: A ThreadError occurred in person#search: current thread not owner (druby:/localhost:9010) /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:274:in `mon_check_owner'' (druby:/localhost:9010) /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:274:in `mon_check_owner''

Hi, I''m running the trunk version with drb server. In my ferret_server.log I get a lot of messages like this: #method_missing(:add, ["User", {:first_name=>"blah", :comments=>nil, :company=>"blah", :phone_day=>""}]) Over and over again. But more importantly, since yesterday doing a search has caused an exception: A NoMethodError

Hi folks, I have several models that index well in Drb mode. However, I have one scenario where it works in normal mode, but not in Drb mode. model A field :one end model B belongs_to :a field :two delegate :one, :to => :a acts_as_ferret :fields => { :one => {}, :two => {} }, :remote => true end If I leave off the :remote parameter, it works. Or, if I don''t

On our server, which is nginx with an 8-mongrel cluster, and a ferret_server for searching, we get an intermittent error when doing ferret searches - always on the same index (for the User class). I don''t know why it''s always this same index - it''s smaller, with less indexed fields, then some of the other indexes, and is generally unremarkable. When the error occurs, i
