similar to: Possiible Bug ? indexWriter#doc_count countsdeleted docs after #commit

I''m playing with "updating" docs in my index, and I think I''ve found bug with IndexWriter counting deleted docs. Script and output follow: ===== require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' p Ferret::VERSION @doc = {:id => ''44'', :name => ''fred'', :email => ''abc at

Firstly, thanks Dave for all your hard work. Ferret Rocks!, I am just testing 0.11.4.win32 and it seems to work just fine, however the index creation phase of my app is perhaps 3x slower under 0.11.4 vs 0.10.9 Details follow: System: windows xp sp2, index on local hard disk, Ruby 1.8.6 Run #1, Ferret 0.10.9 - Reboot - Build index, 35,000 rows added in 297 seconds - Run #2, Ferret 0.11.4 -

I implemented a "reindex" command which simply creates an IndexWriter with :create => true for a prexisting index. The "reindexing" seems to start out ok, with several thousand docs added, then Ferret throws an exception: IO Error occured: couldn''t rename file "index\_0.tmp" to "index\_0.cfs": <File exists> I guess that _0.cfs is held

Hi, I''m building a web server application using Ferret [thanks so much Dave], Mongrel and Camping which works fine servicing one request at a time, but serialises searches if more than one request arrives, so I''d like some advice please about the best way to use multiple readers and one writer. Some background ... query requests which in my case are always read only, arrive via

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

I''m seeing the following in the WEBbrick console output after every GET 192.168.0.108 - - [03/Mar/2005:15:35:19 AUS Eastern Daylight Time] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 200 60 - -> /favicon.ico What does /favicon.ico (which doesnt seem to exist in my source) do for Rails? _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list

Hi and thanks for Ferret! I''m wondering if it would be possible to create a Ferret Win32 gem which includes the c performance code pre-compiled for those of us without a C compiler handy ? Zed Shaw seems to have cracked this particular nut with his Mongrel Win32 gem. Alternately, is there a zip of the Win32 .so Ferret needs that I could download and manually install? Kind Regards

Hi, I seem to be having trouble getting more than 10 hits from Index#search_each since upgrading to 0.10.2 (ie, this was working in 0.9.4). Maybe a bug, as the #search_each doesn''t seem to use the options parameter any more ?

Hi, I just noticed that Ferret seems to convert every field to a string [ruby code appended for those interested], which has thwarted my attempt to format Dates (to "dd/mm/yyyy") and Floats (to "n.nn") for consumption further down the line based on the class of the field stored. I considered pre-formatting Dates and Floats prior to indexing, which would store the field

Hi, I seem to be having trouble updating a doc, ie, deleting then re-adding to the index. The following script demonstrates my issue - I''m sure I''m missing something obvious, but I can''t seem to find the problem. Can someone point out where I am going wrong please ? Regards Neville === require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' p

Hi, The following [simplified] query works well, however a variation which includes parenthesis seems to fail, in that it returns hits which should be excluded by the NOT term. This is surprising because in this simple case, the parenthesis shouldn''t change the Boolean evaluation ... any pointers? Working Query: field1:value1 AND NOT field2:value2 Failing Query: field1:value1 AND

Hi, I''m confused about managing field boosting ... I have set the :boost for the :name field in my docs to 10, via :boost => 10 Then I performed a search for ''keith'' over all fields via with *:(keith*), expecting a doc with Keith in the :name field to come out on top. But another doc with Keith mentioned in other fields (:comments, :address) scored higher. I

I''ve been using the login generator ''out of the box'' for simple authentication, and its been working fine. Now I want to extend it by simply adding ''type_id'' field which links to my ''user_types'' table, but I''m hitting: #<ActionController::SessionRestoreError: Session contained objects where the class definition

I''ve looked everywhere [except the right place], but I can''t find where to change WEBbrick from listening to port 3000 to port 80. Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Hi, I have a largish index [700MB] which is updated from time to time, requiring me to close and recreate the Ferret::Search::Searcher to use the latest index. My problem is that the first few searches on the new index are slow [by comparison to before the close/recreate], I''m guessing because the new index is being loaded into RAM by my OS and into Ferret as needed. I''m

is to run my Rails app on lighttpd .... Unfortunately, I am tied to SQL Server, and the database connector requires ADO.rb which only runs on Win32.

I''m hand editing my .css and .rhtml files using SciTE and hitting refresh in my browser to see the results - its slow going. What tools are people using to author their .css and .rhtml files?

In my app, a user logs in [via the login generator] and has access to details of his account, and transactions attached to his account. This is achieved in the standard rail manner by passing the account id or transaction id between the controller and the view. But what is to stop someone hacking the URL or view html to access another account id or transaction id ? eg /account/show/46 becomes
