Hi there, Has anyone tried acts_as_ferret with Edge Rails and Mongrel? When I install the plugin to a project that has Edge Rails frozen, and the Mongrel gem installed, I can''t start the server. There''s no error, it just doesn''t start. I''ve used acts_as_ferret in the past with WEBrick, and stable Rails releases without a hitch. If I remove the

I''m running Ferret 0.9.5 on a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.4.7) under Locomotive 2.0.7. I have a problem where Ferret is hanging when I try to add items to the index. It doesn''t happen with every object that''s being indexed, and I''m not sure what the objects in question have in common (they are not all instances of the same ActiveRecord object). The process

Folks, Since upgrading to ferret 0.11.4 on Mac OS X Tiger, I''ve been running into constant crashes when running my Rails tests. Here''s an example of the output. -- snip -- 1) Error: test_published_blog_can_be_ferreted(BlogTest): Ferret::FileNotFoundError: File Not Found Error occured at <except.c>:117 in xpop_context Error occured in fs_store.c:329 - fs_open_input

I''m using acts_as_ferret and have indexed a model with acts_as_ferret :fields => [:name, :ascii_name, :alt_names], :single_index => true. Now in the index directory more than 95.000 files are generated! The number of tuples I''m indexing is approx. 86.000. I can''t remember this from earlier ferret/acts_as_ferret versions where I''ve indexed millions of

Hi all, I just tagged acts_as_ferret 0.2.2 as the current stable version, so get it while it''s hot ;-) new features: - added support for the multiple models/single index approach. - find out the total number of search results by calling total_hits on the array returned by find_by_contents. fixes: - trac tickets #20 (find_by_contents breaks ferret sorting) and #24

Hi folks, I''ve working and playing with acts_as_ferret and follow this fantastic tutorial: http://www.railsenvy.com/2007/2/19/acts-as-ferret-tutorial When I try to implement the field storage tip, it crash. So, I try to make it via script/console: 1. I have a simple model called Articles: class Article < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret :fields =>

I''ve installed ferret 0.10.9 together with the latest acts_as_ferret using Windows XP and indexed a location database (geonames.org) with Location.rebuild_index. The data is in utf-8. Now calling Location.find_by_contents "?" does not return a result, causes a lot of CPU load, and finally exits with an error "index.rb:702: in ''parse'': failed to allocate

Hi, I''m running the edge Typo and the latest acts_as_ferret plugin and ferret gems (as of 11 April). In my Content model I put acts_as_ferret :fields => [:title, :body] In the console, I call Content.rebuild_index to index all of my existing content. All the directories get created etc, but I get the following error back: Loading development environment. >>

I have multiple models all with: acts_as_ferret :fields => [...] (models = profiles, blogs, comments ) When I restart the server and perform any crud operation on one of the above models, the index is created/updated. If I then go and perform any crud operation on ANOTHER model, ...the index from that first model is being updated. Any ideas? Can acts_as_ferret handle this? Thanks

I''m sorry to be such a newbie, but can someone please tell me exactly what I need to do to get acts_as_ferret working on Windows XP. I''m just not understanding the install process. Also will I need to change anything before uploading the site to a linux host? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I have a model which has properties, these are your standard name/value pairs, but also have attributes that affect how I want to store them in ferret. I was using 0.9.5 with 0.2 of aaf, which seemed fine, I just copied and pasted (yes, I know, ick) the to_doc method and added code to iterate though the properties that that model had, and add relavent fields to the document. It seems

Hi, I''m having trouble with ferret and AAF blowing up with a NoMemoryError. Sometimes when I add documents inside my rails app. Ferret starts consuming huge amounts of memory. I''m on a machine with 2GB of memory and it still runs out of memory. Sometimes I''m able to run MyObject.rebuild_index and the memory doesn''t move up at all. However, sometimes it

I''m using acts_as_ferret to index one of my rails models. Right after I start the app the first request that orders by some ferret field will take very long. Subsequent ones seem to be fast. I guess some caching is going on. Any tips on solving this? Pedro.

Hello all, Quick question (possibly!) - I''ve got a few records indexed and doing a search for ''test'' reports in no hits even though I know the word ''tests'' exists in the indexed field. Doing a search for ''tests'' produces a result. I would have thought that ''test'' would match ''tests'' but no such

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, I just installed ferret for the first time and integrated it with my app. On my dev machine it''s fine but on my production server I get this when I call find_by_contents(): Processing LinksController#results (for 24.185.105.59 at 2007-03-28 05:28:36) [POST] Session ID: 3f2dc7c17147c0e52178ba697a119833 Parameters: {"commit"=>"Search",

Hi, In ferret, and especially when using acts_as_ferret, it is easy to specify many fields. What is the cost of using a lot of fields from a performance perspective? Is each field searched separately, or are they combined together in the inverted index. As an extreme example, if I made every word in my documents a separate field (so the first word in each document was field 1 and the

Hello, I can''t figure out how to get acts_as_ferret to stop segfaulting. Every time i run a query on my server (rails 1.1.4 and ferret .9.4 and aaf from svn) I get a segfault ./script/../config/../vendor/plugins/acts_as_ferret/lib/acts_as_ferret.rb:243: [BUG] Segmentation fault this line is where the indx is rebuilt.

Gents, I successfully installed AAF on my TextDrive OpenSolaris Container, but I''m having some issues with indexing. I have a model called Blogs which has AAF enabled. The first time I tried to find_by_contents for a ''word'' I know was on the Database I got now results. Apparently the index was not ready yet. Then I waited a few hours and checked that the /index
