hi you guys:
  i must add some extra infomation about my question before.
  i check the newest source code ,then install ferret ,rake migrate 
(schema version:12 ),there are around 10 post(is not empty) in my forum.
  when i use the search function ,search the key words like 'come',will 
search
nothing ,but there does have the keywords:'come'.
  i doubt if i fail to config the ferret or something else? does anyone 
can tell what happen?
   Thanks
                                         vincent

You can either
1) set :auto_index => true in app/models/post.rb
or
2) use scripts/update_index to update the index periodically.

The latter is recommended, especially if your forum has high traffic. Be 
warned though that Ferret 0.9.5 is not very stable, so you might 
experience some segfaults. I hope that these problems will be fixed in 
the 0.10.0 version that is expected to be released soon.

I do try both your suggestions ,I'm afraid ,it still doesn't work, here 
is my install ferret information:

C:\Documents and Settings\vincent>gem install ferret
Need to update 5 gems from http://gems.rubyforge.org
.....
complete
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ruby extconf.rb install ferret
creating Makefile

nmake

nmake install

nmake clean
Successfully installed ferret-0.9.5
Installing ri documentation for ferret-0.9.5...
Installing RDoc documentation for ferret-0.9.5...

 Maybe the ferret want to play a joke with me?  :)
 I wander if anyone face the same problem like mine
 Thanks

Hi Andreas Schwarz:
 I think I found what's the problem is:
 Do you remenber these tips in search template?

 "Search in: (hold the Control or Command key to select multiple 
forums)"

 I search a key words like "demo" ,if i select multiple forums,then it 
will
return nothing, but if i just select only one forums, it will return the 
expect
result, i wonder if this situation is a bug of RForum or Ferret?
  thanks
                                            vincent
