Got it all running nicely now for a few days but noticed something funny. I have a table were lots of records get added, deleted every day. I can see the added records being added by AAF to the index but I notices some "ghost" results when doing searches. The search returns record ID-s that do not exist anymore because they were deleted. Does AAF also remove entries from the index when

Hi, I have my Model as follows: class Mutation < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret ({:fields => {:description=>{}, :product_id=>{:index => :untokenized}, :product_description=>{}, :product_label_description=>{}, :product_label_free=>{}, :product_product_id_supplier=>{}, :product_description_supplier=>{}, :supplier_description=>{}, :pub_date_sort

I''ve just upgraded to the latest ferret trunk from an old aaf stable where the script/ferret_start and script/ferret_stop scripts were still in use. now if I call the old script...

The documentation* states that when using a single index for multiple models, the default_field list should be set to the same thing for all models. However, in my application, all my models have very different fields and this is not possible. I still want the results returned sorted by term frequency across all indexed content in each model. What is the purpose of default_field? Under

I am using AAF trunk, and I want a way to rebuild an index on a production site with little or no interruption to service. The Drb Server documentation* states that when an index is rebuilt, it is done in a separate location and then swapped into place when finished, and so to do a complete rebuild on a live site, one must take into consideration objects which have been created or

Hi all, So far as I know, while using acts_as_ferret, we should add the following declaration in the ActiveRecord model which is going to be indexed: acts_as_ferret({:fields => @@ferrect_fields}) in which @@ferrect_fields is a hash containing all the field to be indexed. This is pretty much for some simple situations. But I got a more complex situation that I want to define the fields to be

I''ve tried throughout the day to install the plugin from SVN and the connection keeps getting refused. On a side note, I tried instead to install the gem rather than the plugin and it seems to only run correctly for the root user. Am I doing something wrong? Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I''m pretty new to Rails and even newer to AAF. Thanks, Josh -- Posted via

Hi there, I can''t seem to find a way to create a new ticket. I''d like to create tickets for those two reproduced bugs: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/ferret-talk/2007-June/003588.html http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/ferret-talk/2007-June/003600.html Can anybody please do it for me or point me in the right direction ?

Hi, I''m trying to get parallelized ferret indexing working for my AAF indices, based on the example in the O''Reilly Ferret shortcut. However, the resulting indices after merging seem to have no actual documents. I went and made minimal changes to the example in the Ferret shortcut pdf, and indeed can''t get that to work either. I''d appreciate any help

In my environment.rb I say the following: MyModel.disable_ferret puts MyModel.ferret_enabled? The console works as expected: script/console false >> MyModel.ferret_enabled? => false I can then edit an instance, ferret remains disabled and the changes are not immediately indexed. However, when I start mongrel Ferret is initially disabled, but then somehow becomes enabled again

Hello all, I''m using AAF right now to index my ~3million db records. However, any additions to these records are added to the database through an external script so the aaf activerecord hooks will not catch any updates. Since new records are only added rarely, I figured I could just add the new records manually in ferret from some type of script. I''ve been looking at the

Hi all, Im a newbie to ferret.I have installed the act_as_ferret gem and i actually want to search for some content in the model,but per user. My model has data,user_id.So within the data column i have to serach for a word if it exists for a given user. So can i achieve that ? presently i know that it just searches the "data" column irrespective of the user given. Can someone help me

I''m sure I''m missing something completely obvious here, so I hope someone can point me in the right direction! I''ve implemented a basic search with AAF, which works as expected; I''m running a ferret drb server, and using will_paginate to page results. The code in my search_controller.rb: search_text = params[:query] || " " @products =

I blogged about some of the problems with aaf in production (http://www.jroller.com/BrightCandle) yesterday but inspired by the poitive response I thought I would share the perceived problems and discuss some of the potential solutions to help newcomers and make aaf work as if by magic just like Rails does. All of these problems boil down to one simple problem, running acts as ferret in a

Is Ferret''s SVN repository down? I''m trying to get the source from svn://davebalmain.com/ferret, but I keep getting "Connection Refused" errors. Did the URL change, or is Ferret''s repository really down? -- Bira http://compexplicita.wordpress.com http://compexplicita.tumblr.com

Hi, My project has been happily using ActiveRecord outside of Rails for some time to populate various databases that are also used in Rails based websites. I''d like to bring AAF into this setup to index new records that are added to the databases as they''re added. Has anyone had any success in installing and using AAF with ActiveRecord but outside the Rails plugin support? I

Hi! I''m using acts_as_ferret in my rails project and i need to order the search results by a combination of the result given by ferret (score) and a ranking in the database (normalized also). this combination can be like that: 0.4*ferret_score+0.6*database_score this database_score is also indexed any idea? and someone know how to access the ferret data in the object returned by

I seem to be getting some behaviour thats unexpected (for me anyway) when using find_by_contents on an ActiveRecord has_many association. The results that are returned are only the records that belong to the model returned, but the total_hits that are being returned appear to be for the whole table. e.g. class Book < AR::Base has_many :pages end class Page < AR::Base belongs_to :book

Hi, am using this wonderful plugin acts_as_ferret and according to the tutorial at http://railsenvy.com/2007/2/19/acts-as- ? rial#basic I worked it out except the pagination feature. If I have 12 records and I give limit to 10, its correctly displaying 10 records in the first page and is giving the link to the second page too. But when I go to the next page I find the same 10 records instead of
