Acts_as_ferret issue on windows

Rails
1

I installed ferret-0.11.5-x86-mswin32 successfully but I’m having no
luck with either the acts_as_ferret gem or the plugin.

The plugin installs clean but when I try to start the server I get the
following:

D:\test>ruby script\ferret_server --debug start
fork() function is unimplemented on this machine
D:/test/vendor/plugins/acts_as_ferret/lib/unix_daemon.rb:41:in fork' D:/test/vendor/plugins/acts_as_ferret/lib/unix_daemon.rb:41:insafefork’
