Hi,
I keep getting locking errors when updating my index which puzzles me
since only one process is supposed to be accessing the index at a
time (at least in development mode).
I’m using Ferret with Rails (NOT acts_as_ferret, though) and employed
an observer to add a new document to the index when a new
ActiveRecord is created. I’m not sure if this has any impact on the
concurrency issues, but I thought I mention it.
Find attached the verbatim error message and the relevant part of the
stack trace.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Andreas
