Sorry in advance for the newbie question. Can’t get aaf going and can’t
find similarly stuck folks on this forum.
I’m running Rails on my local machine in development mode. I installed
ferret 0.11.0 gem, and the most recent stable aaf plugin (as of today).
I’m having trouble getting the most basic functionality working. In my
model Recipe, I have:
acts_as_ferret :fields => [:handle, :introduction, :ingredients,
:steps],
:single_index => true
In my search controller, I have:
@results = Recipe.find_by_contents(params[:search_query])
If the index doesn’t exist yet, then the above will do the following:
- throw the following error:
RuntimeError (tried to use a closed index):
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ferret-0.11.0/lib/ferret/index.rb:695:in
`ensure_searcher_open’
- write the following log entries:
rebuild index: []

query: +(id:test class_name:test introduction:test ingredients:test
handle:test steps:test) +class_name:Recipe
stored_fields:
Apparently, aaf is indexing the recipes table not once, not twice, but
three separate times. Still, a proper index does seem to be created (ie.
I crack open the generated “_11.cfs” file and sure enough, it has pieces
of words from the recipes table).
Yet even though it seems the index is being (inefficiently?) generated,
find_by_contents fails because it thinks the index is closed.
Anybody have a clue on where I might look for an answer to this problem?
Thanks
Peter
