similar to: DRb server crashing

I''m not really sure if this is a bug, but it makes my search results look a bit strange. I have an acts_as_ferret declaration that looks like: acts_as_ferret :store_class_name => true, :remote => true, :fields => { :ferret_name => { :store => :yes, :boost => 2 }, :ferret_content => { :store => :yes } } I store both fields so that I

Hi, I''m encountering another highlighting issue. (about the first one "range search and highlighting", i received no response. I don''t even know if somebody tried to reproduce and/or if it''s normal behavior) about the new issue, an example will be easier for you to reproduce: I''m filling an index with random data, i try to match for "*1*"

How would I change this method in order to get highlighting working with DRb? I''ve given up on searching on Google, I''m getting no results that are actually helpful. def self.find_storage_by_contents(query, options = {}) # Get the index that acts_as_ferret created for us index = self.aaf_index.ferret_index results = [] default_options = {:limit => 10,

Hi everybody, After staring at the a_a_f API for quite sometime now, I decided it''s time to ask... Which method should I use to get content from the index without using highlight? Consider the following controller action: def preview if params[:search].blank? # normal case @text = @myfile. # which method do I use here to get the :text from the index??? else # if we come from

Hi list, I''m new to ferret and I wonder what is the best way to search if I know one fields id and want to search on its content. I have experimented with FilteredQuery but I don''t know if this is the best way. Eg. index = Index::Index.new(:path => ''/tmp/all'') @dbh = Database.instance.connect result = @dbh.exec("SELECT pk_fulltext_id, fulltext_text

Hello list, As there is still some large file support bugs in the 0.11.4 release I had to download the trunk and apply a patch sent in by kyle http:// ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/ticket/215. The problem is now that the highlighting doesn''t work. Somehow it combines excerpt_length with num_excerpts so if you have and excerpt_length of 50 and num_excerpts of 5 and you get only one

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

Hi Everyone, I am currently in process of upgrading Ferret 0..9.1 to Ferret 0.10.9 with Ruby 1.8.4 in windows platform. I am trying to use search highlight feature on index_searcher subject = index_searcher.highlight("subject:(blah blah)", 0, :field => :content, :pre_tag = "<span

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 I am trying to use ferret; the regular search works; but when I use the find_storage_by_contents to highlight the results, I am getting the above error. Please help thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all. I need to perform some operation on the results of a ferret search before it gets highlighted. Is there a way to do this? This is my code which calls the highlighting inside a Rails View: <%= result.ferret_highlight(@query, :field => :ferret_text, :pre_tag => ''<span class="keyword">'', :post_tag => ''</span>'') %> --

Hi there, Is highlighting for range queries supposed to work ? It doesn''t work here. here is an non-working example: (highlighting works when q="test:2007*") require ''ferret'' include Ferret index = Index::Index.new() #index.field_infos.add_field(:test, :store => :yes, :index => :untokenized) i=1 for a in [ "20070505", "20071230",

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

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:

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

I''m hoping for a little insight. We''re using ferret with DRb server and having a hard time getting it to come back up on reboot of the machine. In our RAILS_ROOT directory, we''ve got a script named start_ferret. Here''s the content: #!/bin/bash FERRET_USE_LOCAL_INDEX=1 script/runner -e production vendor/plugins/acts_as_ferret/script/ferret_start

I''ve installed the ferret gem. I installed AAF as a plugin into my vendor/plugins directory of my project. In development environment my searches work just fine, without any problems. For production I configured the ferret_server.yml file with correct information about the machine my DRb server is running on. I start the ferret server with the following command: ruby script/runner

Hi, we still have the problem in that the Ferret Drb server dies on us sometimes. Looking through ferret_server.out and we come accross this: deadlock 0xb7261cb0: sleep:F(1012) - /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:566 deadlock 0xb71d8654: sleep:F(409) - /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:566 deadlock 0xb723f3e0: sleep:F(7) - /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:566 deadlock 0xb72607c0: sleep:F(11) -

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,
