similar to: More sorting problems with untokenized index

I am getting strange results when I reverse sort a query. I am sorting by date, but it doesn''t seem to be related to dates (I have tried just integers). I also paginate the results. Items in the result set are sometimes duplicated and the not ordered at all. When I try a non-reverse sort I don''t see duplicates and the ordering is correct. Any ideas what is going on? Thanks

Along with the contents of the documents in my index, I have stored the date they were added. I want to search for keywords in the index but have the results be sorted by their date rather than their relevance to the keywords. How would I do this in ferret? Thanks, Carl

The document describes search(query, options) sort: An array of SortFields describing how to sort the results. I have created index with two fields: ''file'' and ''content'' When I give SortField name as ''file'' while searching, it results into error. The exact command given by me: index.search_each("sleepless AND dreams", :num_docs

I''m trying to sort by score but it seems like SortField::SortType::SCORE is 0 instead of a SortType. A test case is attached. Without the C extensions the test passes, so I guess it''s a bug in them. Should I be using it without the extensions? Because if that''s the case I have some other bugs to report.

hello guys, i am using acts_as_ferret plugin(0.4.1 Latest) with ferret gem(0.11.4 Latest) on rails 1.2.5 and ruby 1.8.6(UBUNTU Gutsy) i have this :Stores Model acts_as_ferret :fields => {:name => { :boost => 2 ,:store => :yes}, :short_desc => { :boost => 1.5,:store => :yes }, :tag_list => {:boost => 1

The docs for Sort.new say: reverse: pass true if you want the sort order to be reversed. Only works if you pass the field names. Does this mean it''s not possible to do a reverse sort by score? If it is it seems to be broken as I don''t seem to be able to reverse the order of the sort. I''ll write a test case if this is not a known problem. Greetings, Pedro.

I''m trying to sort my search results by Date, in descending order. I''ve done quite a bit of reading through the forums here, and I''ve tried two different suggestions. This just returns results in the same order as a search without a sort: sort_fields = [] sort_fields << Ferret::Search::SortField.new("ferret_created_at",:reverse => :true)

Hey .. I''m using ferret to index various objects and i''m create a Ferret::Document for each of these objects. Indexing and searching is working fine. Each of these Ferret::Documents has a ''relevance'' field, storing an integer, how relevant this object is for the search. The ''relevance'' is in the range of 1..10 Now i would like to

I am apart of a team that runs a student site called Studicious (http://stu.dicio.us). We have been using Ferret from the beginning, and recently added acts_as_ferret and sorting to the system. As you can see if you try the search, sorting is not working as expected. I am using this code (w/ find_by_content): :sort => Ferret::Search::SortField.new(:school_sort, :reverse => false)

Hello All, I am having an issue with AAF and sorting results of a search. Right now, I have results being split onto pages of 10. The results are being sorted alphabetically, but not across multiple pages - it''s just sorting the 10 it pulls down on each page. I noticed another post from April regarding this same issue (http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/62993#66934) where the issue was

HI All; I can not browse the PDC from client machines (even though they log into the domain just fine). I am unable to browse the shares from the server or see any of the client PC's in the domain. I'm running REDAHT Linux ES 4, with Kernel 2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp SAMBA is samba-3.0.10-1.4E.9 I deleted all the logs and restarted samba and find only the following 3 log files created:

The acts_as_ferret documentation says find_by_content returns an instance of SearchResults, but I see this error when I try to use the results. undefined method `total_hits'' for []:Array Here is the link to the documentation: http://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/rdoc/classes/FerretMixin/Acts/ARFerret/ClassMethods.html#M000010 But here is the actual code: result =

Hi I think this is a very easy question but here goes: I want to sort my results by a boolean field and then by score, I thought this would be a default configuration but apparently not. sort_fields = [] sort_fields << Ferret::Search::SortField.new(:sponsored, :reverse => :true) that is my current code, how do iu alter it so that the results are then sorted by highest score first?

Hi all, I''ve included a mysql ''text'' column in my index, and aaf/Ferret doesn''t use it when I search, UNLESS I specify it as a restrictor, and then it only searches in that field! For example: => 0 results are returned by a standard (__all__ fields ?) search >> Entity.find_by_contents "zixi" Query: zixi total hits: 0, results

I may have run across a bug in Ferret: if throws a segmentation fault when I try to create a Sort object using the default fields (SCORE and DOC_ID), but setting reverse to true. Here''s the minimal example: #!/usr/bin/env ruby require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' Ferret::Search::Sort.new Ferret::Search::Sort.new( [

I had sort-by-date working almost perfectly with my app. It was behaving as expected for most data, but had a few hiccups with certain data. I investigated and discovered that the correct data was storing this in my ferret index: "1999-10-18 00:00:00" and the incorrect data was storing this: "Mon Oct 18 00:00:00 EDT 1999" (oops...) So I of course had to fix the

Hi, I believe quite some people get turned off by me writing tests for everything. I'd like to give a reason for this: I can't manage to find the bug(s) in the following movie: http://www.q-lympics.de/iq-marathon/game.swf The game starts fine, you can place the arrows, but when you click "go", the cow just moves across the arrow without changing direction. So what does Swfdec do

Hey guys, Sorry I haven''t been around for the last few days. I''ve just finished a coding marathon fixing up some of the performance problems in Ferret. If you don''t know what I''m talking about there has been a problem with Filters and Sorts on large indexes. Well, I think I''ve fixed the problem. Before: dbalmain at ubuntu:~/workspace/exp_old/c $

Okay, this is near the end of a marathon day trying to get this linux machine up and running as a PDC. At this point I am unable to get a Windows 2K machine to join the domain, it responds with "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password". Samba log shows the following: rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c: _samr_set_userinfo(2937) _samr_set_userinfo: 2937

I''m trying to use the Ferret DRB server to avoid concurrency issues when using multiple mongrels. I can successfully add and edit data on my index via the DRB server, however, when I search the index, I get the following error: DRb::DRbConnError (DRb::DRbServerNotFound): /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1647:in `current_server'' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1709:in
