Hi there, What are you using for text search engine in your rails applications ? I have been using simple search for simple applications, but then I need to search text in model instances inside collections such as user.documents and the like.

Up to now in my ferret development I have been using simple single-word strings as my search queries. I just now am trying to increase the complexity of my queries. When I was passing a single word with no spaces in my index searches, like so: count = index.search_each(''testing'') do |d, s| ... end everything worked fine. But now when I do something like this: count =

Hey all, I''ve been really happy with ferret thus far and all my search on my site is based on it. One of the recent challenges I ran into is changing some of my pagination within my site. Until now, I just used the tutorials out there that talk about how to get pagination working with acts_as_ferret. Recently, I decided to change my pagination to begin using the "Paginating

We have an application that uses Ferret and acts_as_ferret that we just upgraded to Ferret 0.10.5 (from 0.9.5) and the corresponding version of the acts_as_ferret. Everything works as expected on my laptop, which is running mongrel 0.3.13.3. When I deploy the application on our server, which is running some version of Red Hat Linux, I can''t get Ferret to work at all when

Dave and all, I run a medium RoR app using Ferret and acts_as_ferret. I get a lot of lock errors. Not always but around 5% of all searches (aspecially during peak periods).

Hi, I am just getting started with Ferret, but I have a couple of questions. Any help is appreciated. 1) Will the current Ferret implementation only work on one server due to the index file? If it will work on multiple servers, could you point me towards some documentation? If not, are there plans to add support in the future? 2) This may not be Ferret-specific, but if I were implementing

Hi, following the discussion about acts_as_ferret on the Rails mailinglist, there was an issue about transactions, which could result in beind the database and ferret out of sync. I have taken a different approach from acts_as_ferret trying to resolve the transaction problem. Instead of adding things to the ferret index in the model, I have added it in the controller. I have only the create part
