similar to: Acts_as_ferret: Slow ferret_update with associated models

Hi all, I''ve ran into a problem with Ferret on my rails app, and I don''t really have a clue about why. When running the unit tests, I get the following error output: > Exception raised: > Class: <NoMethodError> > Message: <"You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it!\nThe > error occured while evaluating nil.version"> >

undefined method `add'' called for #<ActsAsFerret::Remote::Server:0x7f5be279ea38> I am currently using ferret (0.11.6) and act_as_ferret (0.4.3) My project is using rails 2.1.1 and ruby 1.8.6 along with sqlite3 and Webrick. I can start the ferret server and when I do ''ps aux | grep ferret'' in terminal I see the ferret server to be running. I have a model and

acts_as_ferret does not handle transaction aborts properly. If a model is modified but something latter causes the transaction it was wrapped in to abort, the ferret index will not revert to the original record data. I have included a klunky patch to defer modifying the ferret index until after the current transaction commits. It would seem prudent to resolve this issue, though I

Hi I get a synchronize error (see below) when I run a lib script with script/runner. The script updates a status field in a model object that is indexed and searchable within the script/server (mongrel) process. $ script/runner -e production ''load "lib/billing/credit_subscribers.rb"'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/commands/runner.rb:27: IOError (IOError)

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

PROBLEM I have two models, Blog and BlogComment. When a blog is initially created, it has no comments. Upon creation, the title and body are automatically added to the ferret index and directly searchable. However, when a comment is added to a blog, that comment does not get added to the index and is therefore not ferretable. The desired behavior is that when a comment is added to a blog, that the

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

Hi, So i''m trying to use acts_as_taggable with the acts_as_ferret plugin, where I have Post.rb model, which has a method tag_list made available through acts_as_taggable, as returns a string of associated tag words from the tags table (tag.rb). I''ve set up my Post.rb model in the following way. class Post < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_taggable acts_as_ferret

Hi, I am trying to do a search for a field that contains the word "in" or "IN", but ferret doesn''t return me any result. class User < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret :fields => { :user => {:store => :no }, :len => {:store => :yes} } end ruby script/console >> User.find_by_contents(''Cal'') =>

I have a Topic that has_many comments. In the search results only want Topics to show up, but I want them to include the text of the comments that they have when they are indexed. To do this I''ve added a :comments_text field for acts_as_ferret and the comments_text method gathers the text from all comments up into a string that can be indexed. The trick is that when comments are added,

Hi, I am having some serious problems with site that''s already live. It is using RoR 1.2, ferret 0.11.6 and most recent acts_as_ferret plugin. Most of the day, site is doing pretty well, is quick and search is reliable. But, at some point, it just "locks" and stops responding, one instance of mongrel after another. At the same time ferret DRb server starts eating lots of CPU.

Unfortunately I''m a newbie to ruby, rails, and acts_as_ferret. Also, I''m working in code I mostly didn''t write, so I''m kind of unsure of things. So this may be a dumb question. It also may be the same issue as the topic ''Duplicate search results'', but I''m not sure. When I update column values with

I''m using ferret and acts_as_ferret,i can success save record,but sometimes when i update record,index not found error occurred(not always).I don''t know why:( [quote] File Not Found Error occured at <except.c>:117 in xpop_context Error occured in fs_store.c:329 - fs_open_input tried to open "/home/dev/www/index/development/rcu/_12q.cfs" but it doesn''t

Hi, Recently, I was trying to play around with AAF and found that reindexing table is very slow. Then I started looking into Ferret performance and tried myself and found that it''s very fast. Then, I just used Ferret to index my table and it was also very fast. All good. Then why reindexing using AAF is slow. After sometime I found that in the AAF, it uses (:key => :id) in

Hi, I use ruby console to experiment acts_as_ferret, but I ran into file rename error when I try to rebuild index after doing a search. is this normal? I am using Ferret 0.10.9 in windows XP. Loading development environment. >> Address.rebuild_index => {} >> Address.find_by_contents(''US'') => #<ActsAsFerret::SearchResults:0x4f2ffcc @total_hits=2,

I need a way to kill the ferret_server drb process programatically, so I can start/stop it as part of the capistrano deployment process. This should be as simple as adding some sort of stop method to ActsAsFerret::Remote::Server. I was just messing around and was able to do it by modifying method_missing to look for the :stop method and then calling DRb.thread.exit -- this is not good enough for

Does anyone know how do you get acts_as_ferret to automagically update non-standard fields? I''ve followed Rails Envy''s tutorial (http://www.railsenvy.com/2007/2/19/acts-as-ferret-tutorial#nonmodel) to get aaf working across different models. And once the index is built it searches fine. In my (main) model, I''ve put: acts_as_ferret :fields => [ :name,
