Hi, I''m trying to figure out how to compile ferret with large file support, but none of the topics that discuss this actually say How this is done. Can someone please provide the info? thanks. -m my exact problem: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/94143#191630 this topic also discusses the issue: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/84237#151791 this topic says that the FAQ should have the

I need to reset the ferret index between test runs. It seems like there are a few ways to reset the ferret index. * Deleting the index directory -- is this really bad form? * calling rebuild_index * (any others?) What would y''all recommend? (Sorry, I''m from Texas) Preferably, I''d like a way to reset the index that I can integrate into a selenium test. -David

Hi all, I upgraded from Ferret 0.11.3 to Ferret 0.11.4 because I was getting intermittent segfaults that seemed to be due to a bug which was fixed (changeset 749). Unfortunately, 0.11.4 + acts_as_ferret seems to be a bad combination. I''m getting the some "fs_store/File Not Found Error occured at <except.c>:117" which was reported in the "Constant 0.11.4

I am new to Ruby and to Ruby on Rails and have spent the last few days trying to get my head around it. I think I am already hooked but am suffering badly from years of programming a non-OO RDBMS. I am trying to learn by attempting to produce a system for my work. I have a main table sdocs which has a field supplier_id which is an entry in another table (suppliers) to lookup supplier name etc.

Hi, Apologies for reposting this for those who read this via ruby-forum, but it didn''t make it to the list before, and the list seems more active... I''m using ferret (via acts_as_ferret) in a somewhat unorthodox manner and am having a strange wildcard problem. Before anyone wonders why we''re doing things this way, the answer is basically that it lets us

Is there a way for me to do: OrderItem.find(:all, :include => [:user, :product => [:supplier]] So I don''t have a supplier_id on my order_item, but have it on my product, which is part of order_item. Joerg -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I am NOT a person with English as my mother language and I haven''t been programming long enough to be natural in these kind of things. And if that isn''t bad enough, I am a newbie on Rails too... So please enligthen. I am trying to build a simple tool for my shop. I have many products that I sell in my shop and of course I have many suppliers for the products. Thus

I was optimizing a 650MB using ferret (0.11.3) and I received the following error. I''ve seen some people have similar issues but I haven''t seen any resolutions. The contents of the index directory follow the error. Has anyone seen anything like this and found a resolution? Many thanks. /mnt/apps/search/releases/20070622175637/script/../config/../vendor/

Yeah, right... I posted this to the Rails mailing list.

I have a large index (~6GB, ~1 million docs) that was built by RDig. I wrote a script to iterate through the index to clear out some duplicate information to try to reduce the size of the index. clients.each {|client| docs = RDig.searcher.search("+supplier_id:#{client.id}") docs.each {|doc| data = doc[:data].dup #the contents of the web page new_results = {}

Hi guys, Having committed a fairly large project to ferret I''m a little concerned that ferret svn has been essentially unavailable for weeks (pretty much every time I try I get "can''t connect") and more so now that davebalmain.com has gone off the air. Without meaning to pry, does anyone know whether existing problems in ferret are likely to get fixed? (I can get

Hi Dave, I''ve been getting some segment faults while running my tests using 0.10.14 gem so I decided to package the gem locally to add -dH and generate core dumps for you. So I followed instructions here http://ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/wiki/DownloadCurrent and first off ran the tests. I''m getting the following failures. (see this pastie http://pastie.caboo.se/34790). I

Hi Folks, I''ve just released version 0.9.0. This latest version of Ferret is an alpha release. I have removed the old c extension and Ferret is now running on a fully ported C library. This has allowed some huge performance improvements both with regard to memory and CPU usage. There will probably be a few portability issues to start with. It has been developed on Linux so it should

Is there a fast way to determine how many documents a term occurs in, besides iterating through every document with TermDocEnum? -- Best regards, Stian Gryt?yr

Hey guys, I''ve been trying out ferret 0.9.3 on my powerbook this weekend and I''ve been triggering ''bus errors'' when using the Query API. If I programmatically build up strings, it works just fine. There''s some more information available in the trac ticket http://ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/ticket/62 Is anyone successfully using the Query API on

The ferret webpage at http://ferret.davebalmain.com/ has been down for a number of days. Any idea what''s going on? or how to notify the webmaster? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I need to get a set of terms being indexed using Ferret. I used IndexReader.terms and it returns a list of TermEnum nicely. The only problem is that my analyzer includes a stemming filter. So now, the terms I''m getting back are all stemmed. Is there anyway to get the original unstemmed terms back from the index somehow? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

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, Using aaf to search pages, I wanted to present excerpts from the texts even when more than one term was used in the search. I came to some results, despite the difficulty caused by Unicode+ruby. The last problem I''m faced is to get the query words, without the logical articulation chars if any. Is there a clean way to get them ? -- Jean-Christophe Michel

Hi, I posted a Trac ticket about it, but I thought I''d ask the mailing list to reach more people. I''m using these filters together in my analyzer (with acts_as_ferret + Ferret 0.11.1). HyphenFilter.new( StopFilter.new( LowerCaseFilter.new( MappingFilter.new(
